“This place is a complete vibe. It is rich with culture, authentic music, and really good food. It's not big in size, it's a cozy experience that packs a mighty punch when it comes to food and drinks. The service was top notch and timely. The chips and salsa flow freely. Something a little different from other restaurants is that the salsa is served really warm. I had the cheese enchiladas and the gravy on them was EVERYTHING. I ordered one beef enchilada,as a add on. I have to admit that it didn't quite stand up to the cheese ones. All in all, It is definitely a place you should give a try!“
“Henry's Mexican Restaurant in San Angelo lives up to its reputation as the pinnacle of Mexican cuisine. From the moment you step in, the inviting atmosphere sets the stage for a culinary experience like no other. Their fajitas are simply divine, bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. It's no wonder people travel hours just to indulge in Henry's offerings. A definite 10/10 recommendation for anyone craving authentic Mexican fare.“
“Very good family run restaurant with a variety of Mexican/American choices. Prices were very reasonable and the owners were super friendly. We had a combo plate and the cheese enchiladas were exceptionally tasty. Always nice to find a great local place.“
“Husband and I visited here for the first time and had a great experience. The service was good and we liked the decor/atmosphere. He ordered the Ricardo Fuentes special, a chicken breast covered in cheese sauce and I had the chicken fajitas, both with rice beans and fresh tortillas. Will definitely return to try more of what La Historia has to offer.“
“It’s always a good experience when I come here. I love that they give you two creamy sauces to compliment your food. The waitresses are very friendly. Great place to eat at anytime you want to relax. They have a byob or you can purchase one of their buckets of beer dressed if not. Definitely recommend this place. Especially to all the single men. :) a very good place for them to relax and take their minds off of work for sure.“
“came to the grill recently & the food was amazing. i got the nachos during happy hour & the portion for the price is unbeatable. Tayler was our bartender & she is the best. i always go to see her cause he anticipates our needs & is very personable.“
“By far, the best Mexican food restaurant in town!! Quick and friendly service every time! Their food is simply and amazingly delicious no matter what you order. It can get super busy, especially during the lunch hour, but the wait is well worth it! You will not be disappointed.“
“We have been coming here since moving to San Angelo years ago! The food is always hot and delicious, the service is great and everyone is friendly. They also have the best white sauce in town too. I always get the horchata and it's always yummy. The chicken quesadillas, chicken fried steak, and enchiladas are my go too, but you can't go wrong with anything.“
“Service: They went out and beyond in the service. My husband was working down the road at the water plant. He called in the order. When I was arriving in San Angelo, he told me to pick up lunch. When I arrived, he called them back to see if they would do curbside pickup (4 month old was asleep). They came out with the food and took the payment. We really appreciate what they did.Food: PARILLADA Double 37Mix fajitas, shrimp, and sausage. Side of guacamole and pico de gallo, served with rice, beans, and tortilas.It was delicious my husband and I enjoyed it. Their chips and salsa were great as well.“
“The food was great and the employees were very generous and helpful,my niece accidentally threw up and the the guy cleaning the tables was quick to help clean up my I was going to clean up with my napkins and he said, I got it ma'am,it was not a problem to them, and we have gone out to eat and some of the watiers roll there eye on us, I give them a 10 on their services thank y'all very much, and Merry Christmas ?⛄“
“I love this place!!! If you want something slightly different from other places and still taste great, I highly recommend this place. I've tried a lot of food,drinks and snacks here and haven't found one I dislike yet. So I really do like this one a lot.“
“Upon entering door, the aroma of classic Mexican fare just fills your nostrils. Barbacoa, Chorizo, Beans, Rice, Guiso, Lengua. Staples of a great Hispanic eatery in the morning hours. One thing besides the smell of the delicious food and fresh warm tortillas is the place is well lit. The lights are shining above the fresh food. They say we eat with eyes and here at Primo's it brings truth to that proverb. I highly recommend this place. Everything looks, smells and tastes as if your friend's Abuela had made it. If you just like Bean and Cheese to even Eggs & Papas, even the simplest burrito remains paragon! Check this place out!!!!!!! 5 out of 5 Stars!!!!!!!!!!!!!“
“Came here on a date, the parking lot is great and there is plenty of space to park. We walked in and we're greeted and sat immediately. The place was pretty full, lots of booths and tables. After we were seated the server brought us chips and salsa plus we ordered the queso which was delicious. The server was quick to take our drink order and even quicker to bring our drinks out. They offer soda and a great selection of alcohol and mixed drinks. I ordered the fish tacos and my wife the chimichanga both of which tasted phenomenal. They both came with black refried beans and Mexican rice which tasted amazing. Overall great service and great food will definitely be back.“
“We just had the pleasure of running into Edgar at Los Gallos Bakery and Restaurant. We wanted to try a couple of new pastries, and since we were unfamiliar with the menu, Edgar broke everything down for us. That was incredibly helpful, and we are so excited to go back and try their fresh tortillas and other foods next time. Highly recommend!“
“Coming from San Antonio, had no idea what the craze was for a breakfast burrito. Once coming here, it's pretty similar to our breakfast tacos. I did like that you get to see all options right infront of you and get the option to mix and match what you want. Overall everything was seasoned really well and the workers pumped the burritos out quick.“
“Great food, great price, and the new seating area gives the restaurant a nice feel... Definitely more than I expected when I drove by it a couple of times... The service is great as well, will be here for lunch as often as my pant size permits“
“A Texas version of the corner diner Pepes is the place for dependable good food with no frills. This "ain't" the waitresses first rodeo--they know their jobs and take care of you--friendly and efficiently.Hamburger is not your fast food burger, it's the real deal, tastes like Dad's @ a picnic IMHO.TexMex as authentic as it comes. Hot sauce is hot butt not I'm gonna die hot. My only disappointment, tacos only come in hard starts!4.9 starrs for a diner.Vegetarian options: Cheese Enchiladas, saladsParking: Watch for potholesWheelchair accessibility: Floor, flat, no booths, only tables“
“My husband and I popped in wanting some authentic street style tacos - did not disappoint. Excellent tacos (we had shrimp tacos with rice and beans). Very friendly service. Food truck with nice, shaded porch seating. We were asked numerous times how everything was and if we needed anything. Did I say EXCELLENT tacos? Yum. We'll be back!“
“I love getting my breakfast burritos in the morning and I've gone to several different burrito places but I hadn't gone to Iliana's. Let me tell you, she has the best ones by Far. All the rest I've eaten are as greasy as they come. It's like they just can't serve them if they don't put all the grease they can on it. Iliana's somehow makes them with as little grease as possible (if any) making it nice to eat a burrito WITHOUT any grease running down your arm or soaking your napkin that holds it or even soaking the bag it comes in, and great taste as well. She has coffee, chips, fresh roasted whole peppers and awesome salsa, along with a dine in area just like the others and better/competitive prices. Why go anywhere else for breakfast or lunch for that matter?? BEST BURRITO PLACE IN TOWN!!“
“We came to eat here today for our first time. The cashier was very friendly and explained what was offered. We decided to order the all you can eat tacos per person with mango Agua Frescas. We were given the wristbands and sent to sit outside. The tent had 3 types of tacos, al pastor, carnitas, and chicken. The cook was very efficient and friendly. You can get 4 at a time, and dress them how you want. These were so delicious. The whole family ate good. The owner came to the back to turn on the lights and the music and was very friendly, making sure all of her customers were satisfied.We will definitely be coming back!Kid-friendliness: There is a Foosball table. But not really any other kid activities. The cook was very sweet when my kids ask for their tacos..“
“The food has always been amazing here, no matter what you order. They have a giant 12" enchiladas that is great for splitting or just saving for the next day! Make sure to support your waitress, cause they work very hard with as little staff as they have to meet your needs.“
“We stopped in with a large group. They were very accommodating for all of us (plus one dog!)Our server was friendly and efficient, especially concerning how many of us there were. She brought our drinks with the chips and delicious spicy salsa.The fajitas are excellent. The serving is big enough to share or take for leftovers. Everyone complimented the food.Our server was so sweet. She did an excellent job waiting on all 25 of us.So Glad we found this place.“
“First time in the area. Was heading to our favorite burger place. Saw the sign that said “Best Mexican Food “ so I had to see what f they were boasting of if it was confidence. I was pleased to find the latter. We ordered breakfast tacos. I’m particularly when it comes to tacos. They were amazing! Tortitas were warm and soft. Just soft enough to hold in my potatoes and egg. I ordered a sausage and egg as well. All I had room for was one. I am impressed. Definitely going back tomorrow. Oh, and the staff was very welcoming. Great spot! Great food! Great staff! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️?“
“Absolutely great. I get the chicken fried steak with a cheese enchilada on the side. That's my go to order every single time and it's top tier... their enchilada sauce is the best, their chicken fried steak is the best. A small local mom and pop restaurant that hasn't change since I was a toddler still is the best thing around... keep it up guys the food still has me craving it from time to time even after YEARS?????“
“Me, my sister, and three small, hungry and rowdy children went to this amazing restaurant. They were patent with us, kind to us, and the food was fantastic. Neat art on the walls, friendly staff. Price was great for service and food. We were visiting from out of town and wanted something local and delicious. This checked all the boxes. Thanks !“
“Hands down the best tortillas and tacos(burritos) in town, maybe anywhere. Friendly folks who have been there for years and remember your name and order. The Corner Stop is the OG and top of my list any time I have visitors.Parking: Small lot, can sometimes be hard to get in/out but ample parking across the street when they get busy.“
“Hidden gem! I have resided in here for over 10 years and had no idea of this quaint little place. Service was great and the food was fresh and delicious! My wife took me for breakfast and they have a full menu so she ordered the flautas and for 8am- they were probably the best I’ve had in this city. Guacamole was fresh and the red salsa was deliciously spicy! 10/10 recommend!!“
“Stop! Sour Cream Enchiladas on Fridays are sooooo good that you will want to linger, inside is clean, service was spectacular and personal, parking is 'in back'!Parking: maybe 12 spots in back, more on the exit side of the building!“
“If you haven’t been out there since the remodel, you have got to check it out. Really nice bar, great service, and the food is amazing! If you’re downtown, you definitely need to stop in and try it.This time I got the Fuentes Special, which is like a steak Ranchero with all the right stuff. Check it out!“
“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!“
“The food is always fresh and delicious. This go round, however, they were letting a few men go around and solicit customers for money/donations. I'm a supporter of many organizations and religious/recovery persons. I would just rather not be solicited while eating inside an establishment. Just a personal thing that totally turned me off. Otherwise this place is a good meal at a very reasonable price and I do like that they help people out, just wish it could have been in a different manner.“
“The food was amazing, the service was awesome, and everything was just words can describe, I had the menudo, and it was the best I have had since I had it homemade. The chorizo and egg burrito were so good, plus they served breakfast all day, and they also gave you a refill on your menudo if you didn't have enough... I highly recommend this place if you're ever in San Angelo.“
“It was our monthly get together.We heard there would be singing in the restaurant. We thought we would join in the fun. Our experience was very fun and exciting. The food was delivered hot and delicious.Thumbs up to our waiter, Ashton!Parking: There's plenty of parking. There is parking on front and back side of restaurant.“
“Delicious meals! I got the chicken and squash burrito and a Barbacoa burrito, owner was friendly and the lady who serves the food was great to deal with, all and all delicious! Also the food is ready to go if your in a hurry!!Stop by you'll be glad you did!!“
“I do not live in San Angelo but I grew up there. My cousin took us to Rancho Grande because she said the lunch is soo good. We had breakfast because it was still early and nothing needed salt or seasoning. We lived it We do not like to have to put salsa all over the food to give it flavor, and this was not the case here. Absolutely loved it.Parking: Plenty of space.Kid-friendliness: There were kids there, families eating.“
“I'm from the Midwest and I've always been frustrated by the low quality of food at Mexican restaurants around my area. I wasn't sure if I just disliked the cuisine or hadn't yet eaten the good stuff.Camaron Loco showed me the light. The food was astonishingly good, with hospitable service to match. They have set the bar for quality Mexican food - I now have a golden standard of comparison as I continue to seek worthwhile restaurants once I'm back home.Thank you, Camaron Loco. I will remember this meal for years to come.“
