29 Best Mexican Restaurants near Progreso

“Not the best only because the bistec wasn't cooked how it normally would be in Mexico. It seemed to be boiled and was very salty for my taste. That's not the meat we Valley folk know and love. Once you eat the lonches with everything in them the meat is tolerable. The baked potato was delicious. I do not recommend the tacos however. Just my opinion, like I said not the best I've had. The owners are super nice though! Do give them a try for yourself, you may have a different opinion.“

“I have been visiting Brownsville for work from many years and could not find a decent halal authentic Desi retsuarnt catering to the needs of Pakistani, Indian, Bangladeshi or Middle Eastern / Mediterranean food. Options were always limited to IHOP or Mexican Sea Food places.So happy to find this place this visit, which has opened only 3 to 4 months back.Nice decor and clean and hygienic run family owned restaurant. The owners are always to meet and greet customers. A large variety of authentic halal menu. We tried Dahi Bara, Chicken Biryani, Nihari and took White Chicken curry for take away for Sheri. All were good and had fabulous Masala Chai tea in the end. The decor and cutlery was high quality which the owners advised was all designed and arranged by their daughters.In short we enjoyed our stay and food and would always visit them whenever we are in Brownsville area. Only one suggestion is to start oven made fresh naans too in future if possible. May be I am expecting too much as visiting from Houston area.Syed Shahzad“

“Easily the best seafood I've had outside of South Padre Island. The grilled fish was a thick fillet, and teh shrimp were very large and meaty, both were very well seasoned. The sides were very good too. Fries were not too oily as I often see at other restaurants.Service was also very friendly and fast. It was a littl hard finding parking in the very small lot that was there. If it wasn't far away from me, I would probably go here once a week or even more.“

“Food is good but could be better. People working there don't seem happy at all. They look miserable.Parking: Their parking lot is very small and parking on the street is usually full so that sucks.Wheelchair accessibility: Someone in a wheelchair can get in and out with little to no trouble.“

“Great upscale Mexican food - not a typical menu - lots of unique takes on the standard fare. All of our selections were tasty & plentiful at a very reasonable price. We were served on the outside patio on a cool February evening. The heaters were plentiful enough to make it very comfortable despite the 40 degree temp. Worth our 60 minute trip to Wilson.“

“This place is super chill and totally reminds me of a speakeasy. It has such a friendly and cool vibe. They have a variety of beer and wine and it's a great place to relax. It's also dog friendly which I thought was the best feature to this place. Yuma definitely approves.“

“First time coming here, food was delicious and my was server was just wonderful and attentive. I ordered the Leo special, it was picadillo with rice, beans, salad & homemade flour tortillas. Ohhhh....and the rice, I could just eat that rice all day, I loved it. Will definitely come here regularly. Highly recommended. Thank “

“Loved the food there was so much flavor the beans were amazing the tacos were perfect the tortillas were perfect and soft it was a bit of a wait but totally worth it in my opinion I got the street tacos and my girlfriend got the quesadilla the meat is perfect not too greasy done just right for the price that they sell it at definitely worth it a must try for take out in my opinion“

“This place is so cute! The atmosphere is very relaxing, the staff is so nice and respectful. Management is on duty and attentive. The food is great, I love coming to eat their freshly fried fish. They are very efficient in seating and serving. Everything was great, would definitely come back very soon! ??“

Your Abuela & Madrecita would be proud❤️????⛄??Kid-friendliness: LOTS of open space inside the building. Got a special request? They're pretty good that way ? No kid will turn their food away! All smiles, friendly and kind staff&owner. ?❤️?Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of space. I use both a walker and wheelchair ??????❤️“

“All the food at Martha's is made fresh and the food servings is the biggest in RIO Grand valley TX, price of food is reasonable and there fried ice cream is so big you better have 4 people eat it, you want go wrong by eating at Martha's. Open Monday through Saturday 7am to 7 PM.“

“We’ve been coming to Monterrey Cafe for many years now. There are a lot of restaurants to choose from But… we ultimately end up back here. We love the food! Not only does it taste good but the serving size is perfect. The staff always greets us with a smile even if extremely busy. My wife loves their salsa and chips and i like it all but my go to is the panchos with fajitas. Thank you Monterrey cafe for the outstanding service!!!???“

“Our waitress was great! Food was brought out pretty quick, fries were delicious but my burger was a little on the dry side but still was good. Place was clean, if you are in the area good place to eat. Oh and their Mexican plates look great!“

“The food was good but a little expensive. I could have gotten a better deal at any other taqueria. I paid $12 dollars and change for a sandwich and a drink. A taco combo with a potato, beans, and a drink is less than that at another taqueria. The service was great, though. We stopped here because we saw a lot of cars in the parking lot. When we walked in, there were only 2 other people there. We got tricked, lol. The building is kinda old. They only have one restroom for men and women.“

“We enjoyed our lunch. Service was quick, food was good and ample. Papa joes was a little hard to notice. In a little strip shopping place on the west side of the street between a dollar store and little Caesar's pizza. We love local businesses! Definitely better than a chain!!“

“Best flour tortillas in town! Go hungry!Food took a while to be served but for tortilla & butter got us through the wait. It was worth the wait & coffee was "coffee crazy lady" approved plus they kept filling up my cup. We need this in San Antonio. It's packed most of the time but it's worth the 20 minute wait. Best customer service in the 956 valley area #outoftown #happytummy #noralealhomeloans“

“First time eating here with the family and OMG!!! The food actually has FLAVOR! Do not think twice about stopping here! I rate the food a 9/10! The best part is they have Drive through and guys I was skeptical at first but take my word for it lol im a Big Girl ?‍ ?“

“Don't let the school room tables and chairs fool you. Breakfast here is delicious. I mean Delicousssss. I had Juevos Rancheros and a pancake on the side, my partner had sausage egg and cheese tacos with a side of beans. Both of us had coffee. Let me tell you, everything was homemade and fresh. I would go there and recommend to anyone. I have not been for lunch or dinner. The staff was friendly and attentive. I wish they had coffee cups that were ceramic and didnt use plastic spoons but that will not deter me from returning (silverware is given for the food). The best breakfast in the Valley i.m.o.“

“(Translated by Google) Dana is probably the city in the valley with the most taco shops per capita, but the tacos de flores are the best.(Original)Dana probablemente sea a la ciudad del valle que más taquerías tiene percápita como pero los tacos de flores son los mejores.“

“I highly recommend their breakfast tacos especially the taco loco with egg it is so filling. If you go for lunch try the chicken fried chicken plate or their enchiladas. The homemade salad with chips and cafecito always hits the spot too. Customer service is excellent as well.“

“Authentic, small, drive-thru defiantly spanish only speaking wait staff. Great food and service. Nice baked goods.Parking: Covered parking between buildings and street parking is very close.Kid-friendliness: Small restaurant, small dining area, I would bring infants in off-peak hours. I do not recall a kids' menu. But friendly place special orders no issue.Wheelchair accessibility: No identified handicap parking, but level parking and no steps required for entry. No handicap identified seating, but the staff will accommodate you.“

“Authentic-authentic-authentic!Good prices... with nice sized portions.Oxtail soup, beef tongue, etc...My favorite order, fatboy or piggy (whatever they call it) Sandwich with egg, spam, sausage, bacon, and whatever else you can think of.Great fajitas, my suegra loves the fedeo.The drive thru is a nightmare, but the food is great!I am a Vet, the owners have vets in the family. I love this little take out spot. I wish I could wave a ward and give them a great new, bigger location with a drive-thru service developed by Chick-fil-A.P. S. Every employee in the great state of Texas should be required to speak English. And yes, every Gringo migrant from the great state of Florida should be encouraged to learn Spanish if he moves to South Texas.P. P. S. You should give whoever integrated that homedepot commercial fan as a kitchen exhaust fan a bonus. /grinParking: Very small location, very tight parking. Be careful.Kid-friendliness: Mainly a take out location. You probably can take small kids, I would not. I would definitely still go, but bring the food home.Wheelchair accessibility: Flat parking, no steps, but narrow door and small dining room. Again, this is a great take out restaurant.“

“Great place, delicious snacks and the ladies that serve you the snacks are really friendly. Try the agua de horchata is the best in all RGV!!!! Also try the ice cream, mexican style and totally delicious. Piece of advice, leave the diet for another meal because you'll going to want to eat everything.“

“Food was good and affordable but the waitress was extremely rude. She had a bad attitude towards my M-I-L and myself, not bringing us a drink we ordered and much more. Overall, the atmosphere is very homey and the food is good, but the service was not it.“

“My husband was going to pay and was charged less then we were buying so he told the older lady to check what they were charging him and with attitude she said why my husband told her what your charging me is ok for me but I don’t think you’ll like it at the end of your day you won’t like it they were charging us 12$for a 25$ order and after she redid the whole order my husband didn’t even get a thank you“

“Nice cozy little restaurant. Nice big booths and several tables. Wait staff was very nice and asked if we had any questions concerning the menu. Service was fast. We had our food quickly. I had the crispy tacos and my husband had the cheese enchiladas. Both were flavorful and served hot. Well worth a visit.“

“My husband likes this place him and his sons stop here once in a while. I always come with my husband whenever he comes here, but I don’t order, I ordered only one time and it was chicken tacos, but the chicken was sooooo hard that it even hurt my teeth.“

“First time here, and I will say the place is located off the main streets, but the food was really good. The price was great also. There was 4 of us and the check plus tip was about 45 dollars. It might not be a fancy high dollar place, but it was well worth going to.“
