Carnitas don pepe

"My husband and I love carnitas from this place, the chicharron is the best. And the lady and the man are very friendly."

"Barbacoa and carnitas are good but need to see what they are giving you if you don't pay attention they give you too much greasy stuff. Chicharrón DON'T BUY IT IS HORRIBLE THE WORST EVER. customer service really bad"

"Unfortunately, we didn't receive good service here. I ordered the flauta plate from their limited menu for Sunday lunch & they got order totally wrong. Also, the chicken smelled like it was going bad already. After my order was replaced, it was still half wrong. I guess they thought I wouldn't say anything a 3rd time or they were trying to get rid of their chicken. I was brought 2, not 3, of the wrong flautas plain on a plate. Waitor said cook counted 2 not 3 flautas returned. I guess they don't know how to count either. Needless to say, my family & I will not be returning. The other plates ordered were greasy. Positives for this place is they do serve plentifully for the price they charge and our waitress was friendly. The buffet I DO NOT RECOMMEND unless you like very greasy, spicy food. The beef chicharrones were very overcooked too. Sorry, but it is what it is!"

"Been here three times, once when it was a Bar-B-Que joint that sucked and twice as the new Carnitas. I have had the pork or carnitas tacos both times along with the charro beans and a pork Tamale. It is now my favorite Taco joint in Brownsville!! Their Tres Leches cake is the best I have had in the Valley. My friends who went with me both times for lunch agreed that this is the best Taco joint in town. Service both times was excellent, however we were there at the beginning of the lunch hour and they were not busy yet. I would have rated them 5 stars had they had a better menu. Their menu leaves many questions, such as "can you buy one taco and one tamale, etc." Yes you can! Go in with an open mind and give them a try!!!"

"I came to this place based on the 5 star review rating. People say it's great food but I just don't see it. First of all the service was bad, we had to wave down a waitress and even then she took only half of our table's order. It was full of people but I don't know why. The barbacoa mixta was super greasy as was the birria de borrego and the carnitas. The Pico de gallo and the onions and cilantro were probably prepared the night before and the salsas were sour, sour as in old and no longer edible. Add to this, that everything is charged extra, if you want more Pico, tortillas etc it will cost you extra. The rice side was stale and the charro beans were too salty. The menudo was room temperature and a cape of grease covering the top layer. Needless to say, we will not be returning."
