The tacos are always cold because they pre cook them, and they don't heat up the shells. The shells that I got today were fried in old oil and I could taste it. There was no seasoning in the taco meat, and the salsa that came with it had no taste. The outside of the restaurant has a strong horrible smell from the grease trap that's almost nauseating. I would have been better off going to Taco Bell.

Not the traditional taco salad but delicious! Fresh, light, and those famous Ventura chips!

Worst Mexican restaurant in Texas. Needs a cleaning from ceiling to floor. Food had no flavor, greasy, cold. Beans and rice were dry and cold. Waste of time and money. There are a lot better Mexican restaurants in Victoria Texas!!!

Food rated 3 stars but our server was so nice & so helpful I gave 4 total stars! There were four of us and we had the following : chips and loaded queso, cheese enchiladas and double rice, pork tamales, small bowl tortilla soup, and one combo beef fajita taco&chicken enchilada. We went through two bowls of homemade chips while we were waiting for our entrées . The queso was very good too. Our server advised she had seen them not to put the hot sauce and pico in the bowl of soup and it wasn’t near as spicy so that is how I ordered mine. My grandson said the pork tamales were just OK, not as good as what they usually get closer to home. His friend ate maybe one enchilada in a little bit of rice, he said it was good. My soup looked really good but was super salty.-so much so that I only ate about a quarter of it. During this time our server came back-and-forth to check on us. Make sure everything was OK and refilled the boys drinks numerous times. The real problem comes when you consider the ambiance. The building was very old. The floors were very scuffed and did not look that clean the entire ceiling was those old-fashioned tiles and were stained with water and what might’ve been mold. The interior could’ve used a paint job. It was very bland looking. Overall, it didn’t look the cleanest either. It’s really rare that I have come across a place that was as dilapidated as this. Just be aware of this should you go. I’m hoping for their sake since they’ve expanded their hours to be open seven days a week that they’re able to renovate the property.

Food is delicious, never disappointed, the portions are large and service is spot on.
My fave Mexican restaurant in Victoria! Have tried several different dishes and loved them all. Their thick homemade tostada shells are unique and amazing!
