“Food is good, service are great, I normally bring my employees to get breakfast before go out the field to work, Last Monday we witness witch I believe is the manager, go off on the server, because he said instead been attentive to customers she should be cleaning, witch all of us disagree with that, for my experience., normally waitress get pay to attend customer, and on their down time clean and organize around, Also he should wait to not be any customers or bring the employee to office or said something on private, looks like he want to show he’s power been a manager or owner ( don’t know) Now my employees don’t want to come back there anymore.....“

The sauces were delicious, fries crispy, meat well seasoned and good quality-no chewy parts in the meat. Veggies are fresh, all of it 5 ⭐️.

“Mom and Pop establishment my wife and I have frequented since 1988 when KAFB was still in full operation. Mendez is a tiny little place even after an addition to extend was made decades ago. They have a small menu as well which to this day has not changed the least bit so their recipes haven't changed either. Say like mom's home cooking with very little variance in taste. Yeah, like that. An all-time favorite are their brisket tacos. Another and ordered without fail for breakfast are the chilaquiles plates with ranchera sauce on the side. And if that isn't hot enough simply add that magical green table sauce as an added 'topping'. Service has always been great specially when you know the best times to arrive. -Cash Only- Always has been and I don't believe Mr Mendez will deviate from that tradition anytime soon either. If you stop by once and expect too much, you'll never be content, from any business. Lighten up and give those folks a chance to prove why they've been in business after all these years.“

“Great eats went a while back everything was amazing“

“Súper delicioso el menudo y el taco de barbacoa Y muy amable las meseras… 🫶🏼 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“This was my first time eating here, after a recommendation from some co-workers. I had the Jalisco burrito with the pastor meat and it was phenomenal! My co-workers had the tacos and burrito and they loved them as well. Finally, the service was great/friendly and the food was hot. Overall, this place rocks. Look no further for a great lunch!“

“I ate here for first time on weekend but I did come little late almost closing on a Sunday I believe. My tacos were good then again it was a late breakfast or brunch. It was an excellent lemonade ? that I drank!

Parking: No big deal, just free parking!“

“The food is great. They have a big variety to choose from. The full bar is a plus. Karaoke night is always fun. You can call ahead, dine-in or drive thru. This place is a staple in my life and I wouldn't have it any other way. The Somerset (and SW Military) location is nice too.“

“crispy tacos they are off the hook“

“New owner of the restaurant and in my opinion lot better than the other owners of the place. Great and friendly service even though the drive thru, can't wait to actually be able to sit down for a meal. I'm guessing they are remolding the inside of the restaurant“

“Great eats went a while back everything was amazing“

“nothing. overpriced and food quality has diminished greatly“

“The food is amazing! And the staff is always welcoming! We love both of their locations!“
