Taco El Compadre

Small clean place, lots of variety of food, breakfast lunch or dinner you dont know what to order everything looks good i have been there several times we have try the chile relleno, torta, tacos, breakfast, delicious. Waiter was really nice. We order to go and its the same as the restaurant really good well serve the big torta its really good

Very nice, clean place and good authentic food. Staff was friendly and patient with us non Spanish speakers. We were able to navigate the menu and then place orders by pointing, ha. Food was a good value and tasted good even items I'd not had before.

Horrific....Ordered a Tampiquena , an order of desebada tacos and 2 sodas. The orders came to our table 12 minutes apart . The fajita in the dish was cold , rubbery and served with plastic utensils which were no match for that leather they consider to be fajita. The rice was pasty , overcooked and flavorless. My desebrada tacos were horrific as well, the corn tortillas were old and the meat was out of a blender and tasted very salty . I had never visited this establishment before and will not ever stop at this place again.

Amazing service and delicious tacos!!

Terrible service. I asked for a torta NO CILANTRO NO ONION. I got it and it had so much. It’s like i asked her to add it, I send it back, she give me another torta with no cilantro but SOO MANY ONIONS. At this point, i was fed up. So i just picked the onions off. They had a terrible attitude and threw it to the table. I wouldn’t recommend the food was cold aswell. I know they reused the torta because it still was burnt from the outside the same way it was

I’m pretty sure they’ve had better days but today wasn’t one... I ordered a tortillas taco my brother an order of tacos. They were good but mine had way too much oil and his a lot of liquids. (Picture: oil of one flour taco)

Good food, takes a while for food to be served. Could use more staff for more accurate orders. Food can be improved

Got the biggest torta they offer. Can I get some beef with this bread? Felt like I was chewing on styrofoam trying to get to the little beef that was in there. Seasoning left much to be desired. Lemonade was too warm. Waitress was real kind. Thanks

We ate here last night and the food was amazing. Portions were huge and at a great price. The waitress didn't speak English so come prepared. No English = authentic Mexican food!!!

Tacos vapor de papa muy ricos. El Personal y servicio es muy bueno. Taco de harina de frijoles con queso me gustó mucho. El lugar es pequeño pero vale la pena. Quiero regresar a probar más antojitos.

Excellent food!! Service and atmosphere. My wife and ate here on a trip and absolutley loved it! Highly highly recommended

My grandmother was hungry so we stopped by here and it was the best food service pretty fast very excellent ambiance aswell

This was my daughter's and I first time trying the food from here. Food is amazing. I definitely will be ordering more in the near future. The torta left me speechless

We were looking for something near the Brownsville airport and saw some good reviews on this place. They weren't kidding. This may be the best lunch we've eaten in years. The servers were great and friendly. They did not speak much English but were very friendly and patient with us as we spoke mediocre Spanish. We had combination plates. The tacos and enchiladas were amazing. We'll be back.

On Southmost!! craving tripe tacos its the place to be, quite a few establishments to choose from, some are over packed some are not?? looking for something in between decided to stop off at El Compadre!! actually my first time, first impressions, nice décor, clean, well kept!! Service was friendly and attentive!!! My order, una orden de tacos de tripa semi suaves, you can get your tripe tacos soft, medium, or crunchy (doraditas) con una soda de toronja (grapefruit pop)!!! The tacos five stars on taste!!! just as ordered, not to hard or soft!!! the portions threw me off a bit?? some where over packed with tripe and one or two not so?? but very good!!! also on the miss was the complimentary beans?? we got chips?? but no beans ??didn't ask for any, maybe they ran out?? what I did ask for was grilled onion, don't know if that's extra or complimentary?? so in end very good tacos, just maybe the best time to go is Monday thru Wednesday for the special?!?! you get everything!! except grilled onions?? doesn't say??!!

We were looking for taquitos and we got lucky. This place has some delicious south of the border style taquitos. Give this place a try when you're in the area

If you are into homestyle food, then a lot of the items on the menu were originally made by the owner's mother. The food is delicious!
