"Tex-Mex comes to Lake Highlands at this neighborhood spot owned by the McBride family. Go for a family favorite plate for a combination of enchiladas and tacos in a wide variety of sauces with the usual suspects: chicken, beef, and cheese. The fajitas are a classic order, and the nachos — which are cooked in the oven with melting cheese over fajita chicken or beef — never disappoint. The interior design give a whimsical vibe, fromInstagram-ready wall in the back with a sign that says “Hola” to the wooden high-backed booths with flower-patterened seats. Parking is easy in the lot out front." - Amy McCarthy
"Most nights this colorful Tex-Mex restaurant is packed the gills with folks from the neighborhood chowing down on enchiladas, fajitas, and combo plates. Real ones know that it’s added breakfast items to the all-day menu and serves a mean bowl of marinated chicken, black beans, and rice at lunch." - Courtney E. Smith
"This unpretentious Tex Mex spot in Lake Highlands offers a colorful setting that’s great for families, groups, and those who need a good spot for an Instagram shot. The menu is loaded with every classic Tex-Mex dish and the prices are right, especially for nights no one wants to cook. Beware the green salsa that comes with your chips though — it packs an adults-only punch." - Courtney E. Smith
