“Went to Cielo for the first time tonight for Valentine’s dinner with my husband . This is honestly the best Mexican restaurant in San Angelo that we have been to! Beats Henry’s, Alejandro’s , and Nachos . The Cielo dip was the best queso we have ever had . My husband ordered Steak à la Mexicana and I ordered the quesabirria. Excellent service , superb food, great drinks , and very reasonably priced . I had the blood orange margarita and it was so good I had to order another one 😅 Thank you Natalia for the excellent service , and to the chefs for food. Environment was clean and friendly. Not a single complaint. Excellent staff , excellent food. So happy we decided to try Cielo’s, and we will definitely be coming back .!“

“Decided to have my birthday dinner here and they did a great job at making me feel special!! Amazing staff and can’t forget the delicious food🤩“

“I can't describe how good the service and food is. My fiance and I just left her chemotherapy sesion, and were pretty beat down, and hungry. Cindy looked after my fiance and I with prompt, kind, and courteous service. She is truely awesome. The food was lip smack'n good with portions we haven't seen in a very long time. We had the beef (3) enchiladas meals, with tortilla sides as well as tea, and sprite to drink. We left feeling quite porkulous with smiles on our faces for sure. Our visit made for a very bright point for us for such a crappy day. As far as ratings go, Hidalgo's West is a 6 out of 5. We'll be back for sure, bet on it. And Cindy? Your aces dear!“

“Our local veterans council put on a Mexican Christmas Dinner for veterans, first responders, an their families in December. I volunteered to bring the pastries. A friend at work recommended I visit Los Gallos Bakery and that turned out to be great advice! The good people at Los Gallos were happy to help me select a nice variety of Mexican holiday pastries and treats. The price for the number of items I picked out was more than fair - and the baked goods were the hit of the dinner! I highly recommend Los Gallos Bakery as THE place to go for fresh, delicious baked goods!“

“good quality great service“

“I can’t ever wait til I get in Angelo so I can come get some delicious fruit covered with chamoy and tajin“

“Today I want to take a moment to publicly thank Simon, the owner of Nacho’s Restaurant in San Angelo, for the generosity, compassion, and heart he shows to this community. In a world where so many people are carrying silent struggles, Simon continues to be someone who gives back in a real and meaningful way. He does not just serve food, he serves people. He supports the community, helps nonprofit organizations, works with Concho Valley Workforce, donates food and time, gives second-chance opportunities to people who need a fresh start, and shows kindness to single parents and others who may be walking through hard seasons in life. That kind of generosity matters, and it deserves to be recognized. One of the most beautiful things he does is have a wall in his restaurant where, if someone is able to pay it forward, another person in need can take a receipt or ticket and be fed. That is such a powerful example of loving your neighbor. It is compassion in action. It is a reminder that even small acts of kindness can make a huge difference in someone’s life. I also want to personally thank Simon for the tickets I won. To some people it may seem like a small thing, but to me it means so much more. Sometimes life puts people in difficult places, and sometimes the greatest blessings are not just the gift itself, but the opportunity it creates. What Simon did created a bridge. A bridge for possibility, a bridge for peace, and a bridge for a positive opportunity moving forward. In life, we cannot force healing, peace, or togetherness, but we can create opportunities for those things to grow. That is what this blessing represents to me. As we reflect on Easter weekend, I think about grace, mercy, sacrifice, and forgiveness. John 3:16 reminds us of the greatest gift ever given, and this season reminds us that love, humility, and kindness still matter. Sometimes we have to put pride aside, trust God, and recognize that blessings can come through the generosity of people He places in our path. This was one of those moments for me. So today I just want to say thank you, Simon. Thank you for your generous heart. Thank you for the way you love this community. Thank you for all the ways you help people, many of which probably go unseen by most. Thank you to your family and everyone at Nacho’s Restaurant for being such a blessing to San Angelo. I pray God continues to bless your business, your family, your health, and every good thing you pour into others. I pray He multiplies it and returns it in ways greater than you can imagine. And I pray more people choose to support local businesses like Nacho’s, because these are the businesses that truly give back and make a difference. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. From my family to yours, we are grateful. All glory to God, and may more people continue to follow the example of Jesus Christ by loving others, helping others, and building bridges wherever they can. ❤️“

“Best Mexican restaurant in West Texas. Fresh , love , perfect taste in every bite..“

“On Thursday August 3rd my 92 year old grandma lost her cane at the restaurant. We were hung up on when we called. Owner was listened to my concerns on how we were treated. But, the male tall waiter, kind of bald, was rude. Even after a very good tip. Shame on you, sir, for such poor manners. If you have my grandma's cane please return.“

“it's the best Mexican food. N American food in san Angelo I give this cafe a 5 stars , so friends n all go by n eat the BEST IN THE WEST. FUENTES CAFE“

“Great food, awesome 😎 service“

“First time ever trying Joe’s Taqueria order through DoorDash and it was amazing. The hot sauce is perfectly hot and the birria quesadilla at 11 out of 10 definitely be back“

“If you’re in San Angelo and on the hunt for a hidden gem, Lydia’s is an absolute must-visit for breakfast or lunch. This unassuming spot may not catch your eye at first, but it’s the kind of place locals rave about, and for good reason. I recently enjoyed the best breakfast burritos, each one bursting with authentic flavor and cooked to perfection. I tried the Guiso, the Azado, and the spicy hamburger burritos, and every single one was moist, flavorful, and simply delicious.

What truly sets Lydia’s apart is Lydia herself. She’s the heart and soul of this cozy hole-in-the-wall, always serving with a warm smile and genuine gratitude for her customers. The food here is grab-and-go, with no indoor seating, so it’s perfect if you’re on the move. While it’s not the cheapest burrito in town, the slightly higher cost is well worth it for the quality and flavor you get. If you happen to drive by and don’t see any cars out front, consider it your lucky day because this place can quickly have a line out the door for her amazing food. I arrived just before the crowd, giving me the chance to have a great conversation with Lydia. She even shared some cooking tips and explained the various aspects of the dishes she prepares.

Open only until 2 PM, this local favorite is the perfect spot for authentic, mouth-watering Mexican cuisine. If you’re searching for the perfect grab-and-go restaurant in San Angelo, Lydia’s Burritos is the place to go. Don’t miss out on this hidden gem!“

“Great variety! Great food!😋“

“muy rica la comida 😋😋y el servicio muy atenta lo recomiendo“

“The best spicy asado by far! The burritos are a bit pricey but with how much they stuff one you’ll definitely get full! The other competitors burritos are so small and tortillas have a weird texture to them almost like rubbery so these guys are the way to go!“

“Food was delicious and service was superb 👌🏼 I loved it!!!“

“Mejor servicio que pudieras encontrar te hacen sentir en casa 10/10! La bebidas ni se digan 👌🏻 y las bartenders bien amables ! 👌🏻“

“We had lunch on a Sunday and it was really great. Our server Eve was the best! We have been looking for a great Mexican place for a change. It is definitely wonderful and we will be back!“

“Super friendly and exactly what you should expect from a burrito shop! They make excellent burritos with great flavor. They have a TON of options so you’re definitely going to find what you want. Also, you get your moneys worth unlike most places I’ve been to where all you’re getting is mostly tortilla.“

“Hands down the best burritos — and the asado is my forever favorite. Perfectly seasoned, tender, juicy, and wrapped in tortillas that taste like they were made with love (because they are). Let’s talk about those tortillas though… soft, fresh, warm, and next-level good. The kind that make you pause mid-bite. Breakfast? Yes. Sunday craving? Absolutely. Random weekday “I deserve this” meal? 100%. Simple, authentic, and consistently delicious. I’ll be back every time. 🌮🔥“

“Came here with three of my other AF buddies on a whim and it was incredible. I got the quesabirria tacos and it was gone before I could remember to take a picture. I’ll definitely be telling all the guys about this place. The Lady helping us was so very kind as well!“

“Everything I have never had a bad meal here. From the atmosphere to the people this place has always been amazing they were strangers who became friends on day to day interactions! This is my go to breakfast ❤️“

“Amazing little local Mexican spot 🌮🔥. The food tasted fresh, authentic, and full of homemade flavor from the first bite. Tortillas were clearly fresh, the tacos were packed with meat, and the breakfast options were honestly some of the best around. Staff was super friendly and the whole restaurant had that welcoming family-owned atmosphere that makes places like this special. Definitely a hidden gem if you want real authentic Mexican food without spending a lot.“

“Really fresh and delicious! Fast service and the establishment is very clean!“

“After living in San Angelo for years I finally found my way to this hidden gem, and I was not disappointed. The breakfast burritos are AMAZING, the salsa is wonderful, and the service quick and friendly. I am just sorry I waited so long to come inside. Its not a place to have a sit-down lunch, but if you're willing to take your food to go, you will be very happy. Best place for Tex-Mex breakfast in San Angelo!“

“Always great Mexican food, prepared well, and fast service. We love this place. We go every week.“

“Great variety! Great food!😋“

“The food is good and so are the margaritas I gave them a 3 on service because they put ur number up on the board before your food is ready I'm talking about 5 min or more then we went and ordered sopapias and they gave them to someone else and we had to wait for them to do it again why give u a number if it's a free for all at the counter everybody is grabbing trays“

“Great variety! Great food!😋“

“Food is very delicious!! The best Mexican restaurant in San Antonio Texas!! The fideo is delicious and tortillas are fresh! There has not been a dish or taco that we have not liked! Customer service is great !!!“

“I have traveled to San Angelo several times now for work and had the opportunity to try The Grill this evening with my youngest son. We are from the Dallas area and have had some amazing meals but our meal tonight was by far the best we have ever had. We both had the filet offered on Fridays. We both had some spaghetti squash that was so amazing I was asking how to make it at home. Every single thing we ordered was cooked better than perfection. We were blown away by everything down to the amazing desserts made from scratch there. I was already looking at my schedule to see when the next time I could come back and enjoy it all again. I would highly recommend this restaurant if passing through or visiting San Angelo. I know I will be dreaming of the food tonight. Our waiter Brad was kind enough to answer my many questions about the owner as well as information about other restaurants he owns in Dallas I haven’t tried yet. You will not be disappointed in the food at The Grill in San Angelo. I’m off to my food coma now.“

“As a restaurant owner, I highly recommend the tortillas from this tortilla factory located in San Angelo, Texas. They're a wholesaler serving the whole United States, and we've been using their tortillas in our restaurant for a while now. Their tortillas are always fresh and have an authentic flavor that our customers love. We appreciate their commitment to quality and their efficient delivery service. Whether you're a restaurant or a tortilla shop, this tortilla factory is definitely worth checking out.“

“Wonderful food every time (pancakes are AWESOME). Service is fantastic, the staff are all so sweet and kind and work their butts off every time I'm there, but they always find a minute to visit as well. I love Gil's.“

“very nice staff. I got Pad Thai twice. very delicious both times. she gave me free donut for dessert.“

“Ordered from them today and was so disappointed after I had heard good things! Cold food, some of my order missing and portion for two is a joke! Hopefully just an off day but geezzzzz! Very disappointed!“

“The quesadillas were phenomenal.“

“Love these ladies I got there always in great spirits, the food is amazing juicy 😋 but a lil on the price side only go when I can if they lowered the amount I can go mostly everyday I am paying 6.70 for a burrito 2 $13.60. I only go on Friday every other week“

“Monica was so sweet and so patient with me when I was ordering because honestly I never go to Chipotle lol, so with so many options it was hard to choose from all of them haha. But she was so sweet and gave me a couple of laughs while at Chipotle. Her personality and customer service skills are amazing :)“
