Had lunch at this small restaurant (behind the Chevron gas station) for some authentic Mexican cuisine. The food was delicious and far exceeded our expectations! All of the meats (Carnitas, Barbacoa, Pastor and shredded chicken in the Chile Rellenos) were well cooked, soft & full of flavor. Our servers were happy to serve us and made our experience of their restaurant a memorable one! Had a warm crispy churro for dessert. Will have to go back for more
And we did go back for more! This time we had some horchata and tried the Entomatadas plate, Pollo a la mexicana plate and the chimichanga plate. Everything was sooo good!!!

Came for my lunch break too try the combination plate or barbacoa and beef fajita and honestly wasnt so good. They were very kind and the morning tacos are good but the plate was 20 dollars and it just didn’t have the flavors/ingredient’s for a good meal.

I wish I would’ve taken a picture of the beautiful view of the sunsetting over the highway while sitting on their nice little deck next to their food truck. After a long drive to Austin and a long drive back and Not haven’t had anything other than a latte all day. I pulled over just to use my phone at the gas station and noticed this little red food truck. Being that I was starving and that’s why I pulled over to look at my phone. I had planned to stop at one of those larger chain restaurants on the right side of the highway up ahead. But I’ve lived a life and one of these things I’ve learned is little places like this place only the cool people learn about them the ones that are willing to take risks and give people a chance. The banner boosted grilled chicken. So I ordered a grilled chicken burrito. It was absolutely delicious. They served it with a half of a lime and a little container of green salsa which was delicious. The lime was the perfect amount for me to squeeze into that burrito as I dabbed the salsa on it and grabbed the heck out of it. It was damn delicious. I am not criticising or suggesting they do anything different though there was shredded lettuce inside of the burrito and being it was a hot burrito personally if I’m gonna have a leafy green inside of a hot burrito or quesadilla or whatever it’s gonna be fresh spinach that wilt naturally from the heat of the food That it is over or around. The hot lettuce was a little different, but I’m sure it’s a normal thing to see in burritos around here. I do recommend spinach instead of lettuce. All that Side the burrito is perfect I loved every single bite of it and I’m about ready to hop on my motorcycle and drive down the highway from Fredericksburg this evening just to eat another one. I was reading a review of some guy that has only left one review in his life on Yelp claiming that he found a roach in his last bite of his burrito. So he has a phone and he has time to leave a bad review but he didn’t have time to take a picture of the roach in his burrito. I am calling a big fat BS on that dupid foo! That actually really bothers me that somebody would make a claim like that a false claim like that and somebody that’s supposed to be a man. I would love to interrogate that man and give him a polygraph test. It should be against law to make a claim like that in a review for a restaurant who knows how many people read that and decided to not go there that is their livelihood and they do it well so whoever you are shame on you and for everybody else come and get some food here if they did good with the chicken burrito that I had in my hands in five minutes and in my belly five minutes after that and I was already making plans to go an hour out of my way just to get another one the next day y’all can trust me it’s good stuff so go show some love give it a try. And thank you for being there you put some muscles on this young man and I’m very regretful that I did not take pictures of that sunset and the burrito. But you know what maybe I’ll take some today and add it thank you. And I would’ve given five stars for food service in atmosphere. But being fair and being I am in hospitality and food service as well. We can all do better I got my food it was delicious. The atmosphere was great. But nobody asked me how my day was or if I’ve ever been there before or how my drive was or where I was going. Maybe you could chop that up to language barrier. But when you deal with people that speak English all day long, I mean my Spanish isn’t horrible. I can ask somebody how they’re doing. I can be sweet to them and give them a compliment. I know enough Spanish for that. I’m not criticising, but I’m just saying for five stars in service needs to be a little bit of communication back-and-forth. Thank you again la Escondida God bless.

Asked for a chorizo egg bean and cheese taco. The cashier responded with “why do you want so many things on one taco. Why not just have one taco” I responded oh that’s just how I like them. She just stared at me with a confused look and proceeded to ask me to have one with just bean and cheese taco. No lady I want my taco how I want it. Sorry you made all these premade tacos no one wants but that’s not my problem. Horrible service with people that don’t want to work.

I went to visit my fiancé at work for his lunch since I had the day off. We went to this little spot based off the reviews and y’all failed us (which is very rare).
My Gordita was meh. My agua fresca was ok. This place was not memorable. The food was very bland. I kept finding bones in my Gordita. So be very careful. I doubt I’ll ever go again.
Very friendly service.

Food was the most disgusting thing ever, not even close to being Mexican food, cashier doesn’t even greet you just stares at you waiting for to order places looks like it hasn’t been clean in years. Don’t waste you money here there’s a food trailer outside 10 times better.
