Best Restaurants in Port Aransas, Texas | Eater Houston

"Before you head out on the fishing boat, fuel up on this casual Mexican spot’s breakfast tacos filled with eggs, chicharrón, barbacoa, beans, or potatoes. If you don’t manage to reel in your next meal, return to the Cancun Grill and Cantina to dig into Tex-Mex staples like tortas, quesadillas, gorditas, and sizzling fajitas. The staff is warm and welcoming, whether you’re dining in or grabbing takeout to keep the adventure going." - Brianna Griff

Friendly, fast service. Even though the place was absolutely packed and every table was filled we got our food in 3 minutes it was amazing. Solid food, nothing fancy but good, fresh high quality Tex Mex. The salsa was better than average we went through 3 bowls! Friendly, professional staff that were all working together running food, seating people and bussing tables as a team. I watched big groups walked in one after another and even with a packed house they were able.to accommodate everyone quickly. Most other restaurants would have been on a 15 to 20 minute wait. Not this staff! They cleaned tables the moment people left and got all these big groups seated asap. Will definitely be back our favorite breakfast spot on the island!

Food was OK. Very crowded. But there isn't much to chose from. It's very busy at times. Staff seems stressed, but yeah. Customers can be butt heads. So decent food for the price. Parking is minimal. Staff tries their best.

Me and my family had mixed reviews overall. I strongly recommend the T bone steak and the skirt steak. However, we did not like the alpastor as it did not taste like traditional Mexican alpastor. I would say give it a shot and see what you think.

Ordered food to go. Cheese enchiladas. Got home and found burnt plastic container. Had tipped the guy $6.00 and that’s not enough to check the plates? Check it before you leave people. Burnt chewy food

I had been coming to this restaurant for years every time we came to the island, but today when we complained about my friend not being asked how she wanted her T-Bone because it was dry, we found it that they don’t give you a choice on how you want your steak. They just make it medium well and you can’t ask for a replacement because they tell you their restaurant isn’t a steakhouse. What does that have to do with anything? No steak should ever be overcooked like that. The only other place this happened was at another Mexican restaurant in Houston. Apparently to shorten cook times, they cook all their steaks half way so that when they are ordered they put them back on the grill basically to warm them up. Regardless of the customer cooking preferences. And if you complain about wanting a new one, they force you to pay for the steak you will never eat and charge you replace it. We didn’t want a free meal or even a discount. We had no problem paying for a meal we could enjoy, but because we refused to pay for a steak we were never given a of how we wanted cooked and just wanted a replacement, they called the police. We didn’t feel that asking for a meal worth eating was a crime, we waited for the police to get there. I explained to the police that I wasn’t trying to get out of paying the check, I just wanted the steak remade so it would be edible. They forced us to pay for the steak. I couldn’t believe it. If you enjoy eating a steak that tastes like leather than this is the place for you, but if you enjoy your steak cooked less than medien well or well done, this is not the place for you to order a steak. Gross.

We came here for a casual dinner around 7pm on a Thursday. Ordered the Cancun burger and the Chicken Milanesa. The chicken was great and the sides were good. The burger was not that great. The patties were thick and it felt like cooked paste. TLDR: Food was warm.

Fast, delicious, reasonable price and did I mention fast? We stopped in at 12:30 on a Wednesday and it was packed! There were only a few tables open so we sat down and a flurry of staff flew around with food and drinks. We got our drinks in a flash and our food in less than 10 minutes. So nice, efficient and professional. Great stop!! The chicken fajitas were so good with a ton of veggies - not the 6 strips like most places. My husband had the cheese enchiladas and he ate it all. He cuts all his up before he eats, weird I know. Stop by and enjoy the food.

Food & margaritas were excellent, awful service until Maribel stepped in and took over our table. Original server chose to turn his back to us and be on his phone instead. Note, there were only 3 tables at the time. We will do take out from here on out if at all.
