We have eaten here before and it was great (the only reason im giving 2 stars instead of 1). But today was not a great experience. My mother-in-law got enchiladas and after one bite it didn’t taste right, something was just off. I could smell it on the meat (she did let the waitress know and they took it off the check). I had already eaten my tamales by this time. Mine tasted fine but within a few hours I had thrown up and started having stomach cramps. My husband is not feeling well and neither is his grandfather. The place was packed so I’m sure we are not the only ones feeling unwell after eating there today! Really hoping I did not get food poisoning.

Waitress was GREAT, caring & attentive, took the kitchen an hour to get us our food & kitchen decided to put actual FROSTED FLAKES cereal on our food as some kind of joke. Who knows what else they did to it so we got up and left.

Very busy place, they were a little short staffed but those ladies were hustling! Got in and sat at a table with a short wait, which we totally expected a wait time much longer with th3m being ad busy as they were tonight. Got our order taken promptly and food was our quick too. Great servers and great food. Highly recommend.

The wait staff wasn't friendly or attentive. We Had to ask for refills on everything!! Furthermore wish we had better review as we were on our way out of town. Plus, slim Pickens in Acton. Ordered ground Beef taco salad. It was the most GREASY salad I've ever had. It was leaking grease all into my plate and the taco shell was STALE. Husbands steak fajita was so horrible he only took 2 bites then pushed it away. I got sick at one point. Brought our dissatisfaction up to the waiter & she Said she talked to Mgr. And wasn't going offer us a discount nor refund because we took a bite of the trash. Will not ever go back. Highly recommend you going to El Chico in Granbury.

It was a bit busy that evening. My enchiladas were cold and seemed to be covered with canned cheese. The food could have been so much better. It used to be.

Our go-to restaurant in Granbury for Mexican food. Great top shelf margaritas complete the experience. Friendly & experienced waitstaff. Have never had a bad meal there!

I wish I had something good to say, but it was truly terrible. The restaurant was absolutely dirty (thick visible dust on the fans and Knick-knacks). I had steak fajitas and the steak was so tough I could not even chew it. Would recommend Garcia’s or El Chico instead.

Loved the food, friendly service, and the experience.

best food in Acton. great wait staff. and the margaritas are best.

This restaurant is nearby so we eat there more often than we otherwise would. Like the others around town, the presentation is nice but the food is disappointingly mild. But the place is nearly always crowded, catering to a generation and to migrants from other states that never had the chance to taste real, spicy, tasty Tex Mex where you sweat while you're eating. If you can spoon in the salsa like it is soup, or chug-a-lug it, what a pity, and you can do that at Don Melquias' and every other "Tex-Mex" place around town.
