I love Mexican food. Was raised on it. This is some of the beat I have ever had and that is saying a lot. Plus. the service was exceptional. A repeat customer in the making! Had the Carne Asada with churos beans and queso enchilada. Soooo good.
Great food and service. We had the Carne Asada and Shrimp Hector. Carne Asada was marinated and came with grilled onions and bell peppers with a whole grilled jalapeno on the side.
We found ourselves in Gun Barrel Texas and looked for a good TexMex place to eat. We loved this place so much we ate here twice. I'll definitely be back. We had a big group and pretty much tried everything on the menu. I strongly recommend it.
Great food. Stopped in for lunch and ate way too much. I had chicken enchilada with sour cream, and it was really good.
