Reviews
Open daily from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., Edith’s offers a reasonably priced, home-style Mexican breakfast and lunch buffet. The restaurant also has locations in downtown Edinburg and in Mission, which reflects strong support and confidence from local customers.
This was my first visit to the Pharr location. The exterior of the building appears recently updated, though parking can be limited during peak hours.
Be aware that parking on the hotel side of the divider will result in towing. While signs are posted on the restaurant door, an additional sign on the divider itself would be helpful. Street parking is not available.
I remember when this space housed a pancake-house-style diner, and much of the same furniture is still in use. Some booth upholstery shows wear and a few small tears, though the seating remains comfortable.
The breakfast buffet features a wide variety of traditional Mexican favorites: several styles of scrambled eggs, beans with or without chorizo, fried potatoes prepared plain, with chorizo, or a la mexicana, chilaquiles, hash browns, huevos rancheros, cheese in salsa, menudo, oatmeal, fresh fruit, and more.
Our server, Soraya, was especially friendly and took our drink order as well as requests for eggs cooked to order. Pancakes and waffles are also available upon request.
My eggs arrived promptly and were cooked perfectly over medium. The iced tea is offered sweetened or unsweetened. Although I was told the sweet tea was freshly brewed, it did not taste fresh to me and had a hint of lime. Soraya kindly replaced it with unsweetened tea at no extra charge, which was clearly fresh brewed and excellent.
Corn tortillas are warmed, while the flour tortillas are freshly made—definitely the better choice in my opinion.
Overall, the food was quite good. The guisos, potatoes, bacon, beans, and chilaquiles all had solid flavor without being overly greasy. The chilaquiles were slightly dry on their own, but adding queso in salsa verde made them just right. Some bacon pieces were less crispy than I prefer, though it was easy to select the more well-done pieces.
I enjoyed my breakfast and would gladly return. I noticed that some reviewers mentioned Christian music playing in the background, but during my visit the music remained subtle and did not interfere with conversation. Personally, I appreciated it.
I look forward to returning to try the lunch buffet, especially the chile rellenos—one of my favorites—along with the many other guisos they offer.
1st of all food is great! The taste of everything I tried had great flavor. The menudo has great taste! The omelets are small but flavorful. The horchata water actually taste like real horchata! The only downside is that they take forever to bring you tortillas.
They lost 1 star because the smell when you walk in is not it. It has a funky smell. You expect the smell of food and nope. We think it is because the carpet is disgusting. (We did bring it up to the manager)
They lost 2nd star because I got a broken bowl and most tables wobble. It is so uncomfortable to be eating on a table that wobblez. The menudo would go everywhere every time someone would move.
After eating a few weeks ago at Edith’s Buffet in McAllen (which I did not review, but if I did, it would get 4 stars), I was expecting the same, if not a better, experience. Sadly I was disappointed, as this was HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE!
Everything was WRONG about this location. Having such a prominent, high-visibility location near I-69C, expectations were high, but sadly it crashes. The marquee touts John 3:16 (which is wonderful) and, as such, raises my anticipation of an offering to the community that is of a superior level of quality and excellence. Not even close!!
After being seated (in a booth shared with a lone fly), I approached the very small, confining, abbreviated food bar. At 1:35pm in the afternoon, a majority of the food offerings were nearly depleted or empty. When a Mexican buffet has NO cheese enchiladas…please!
Notice in my photos that the refried beans’ location is populated with only dried scrapings. The food I did eat was bland. My corn tortillas were dry…blah blah blah
My server was pleasant and very attentive. She will remember me as I asked for a to-go cup for my $18.38 iced tea.
I left (after 18 minutes) thinking this must have been the original location for this franchise, as it is, in my opinion, being neglected. NO, I will not eat at this location again, so McAllen Edith’s it is.
-food was just made with NO effort was put into it
-hostess was in a bad mood
-didnt tell us it would take 30 mins to serve new food
-we arrived 11:45am and lunch wasnt served until 12:27 was ready
-whatever was there for breakfast was OLD like it had been there since the open time
-when it was time to get lunch was overcrowded because of the long set up time it took and food was just simple
