“This is truly a delicious place to stop at, if you are in Rockport it is a must go. Andy is so attentive and ready to answer any questions, they make homemade tortillas that are next level. I seriously haven't taste tortillas this good since my last trip to Mexico. They have two tables out for you to sit at and enjoy your food. I cannot re comment this enough, if you are looking for an authentic taste and a feeling of home here is where you go. I tried the huevos rancheros as well as the carne guisada tacos, they have something for everyone!“

“Kiley was my server. I'm from Kansas City Missouri.

My dad lives here in Rockport. He recommended this place to me and now I know why!

The food was amazing! My server was energetic, well informed, and very friendly. The meal portion was HUGE (I ordered one plate and it could feed a family of 4 lol).

I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who is in the area. You won't be disappointed.“

“10/10 would recommend. We visited Rockport for the first time for my husbands birthday / our baby-moon and we were excited to have great food throughout our stay... but were a little disappointed with a few of our first choices. That was until we started asking locals where the best food in town was. Several people pointed us to Copano's and it did not disappoint. We ordered the brussel sprouts as an appetizer, which were a great portion size and so good. My husband got a glass of cabernet, and their wine prices were super reasonable. Then for main courses, I got their 7 oz Filet which was cooked perfectly - tender and juicy. And My husband got their scallops, which he said were melt-in-your-mouth perfection. We finished off with their seasonal dessert of a MASSIVE chocolate brownie topped with ice cream... and when I tell you it was the best brownie we've ever had I am not exaggerating. Our server, Arianna, was some of the best service we have had in a long time. She explained all the specials, was prompt and personable (despite being triple sat) and checked on us at all the right times. Some people are just GREAT at serving, and it makes the whole experience - Arianna is one of them.

We will definitely be back and recommend to our friends.“
