Nostalgia is heavy in the air in this place. Take a trip back to what felt like a classical era in McAllen. Food is good. Sweet bread availability is a plus.

Family owned as far as I can remember. The empanadas and sweet bread are awesome. Take home a dozen of empanadas, keep in frig and warm them up alitttle on microwave and as if they just came out of oven. They are delicious!!!!

The waitress didn’t speak much English and I didn’t speak much Spanish, but we figured it out. Special today was fideo. This restaurant makes the chicken on the bone with the soup and it makes a world of difference in the flavor. Truly amazing. The beans that are served on the side are top tier. I would have been happy with a bowl of these beans and some tortillas. I wanted to try a fajita taco on the side, but they would only sell them as a plate of 3, so that’s a missed opportunity there. Overall I would definitely return.... read more

Excelente servicio, todos muy amables, el pan está muy rico y nos encontramos con pan muy alusivo a la fecha (conchas en forma de calabaza). El ambiente muy familiar, el sabor muy agradable al paladar, te ofrecen promociones del día de distintos platillos. No es caro, son precios justos por la calidad y el sabor de los platillos.

One of the original restaurants in the McAllen downtown area, they offer affordable daily specials, they tend to run out of the popular dishes. I had the hamburger, the bun was toasted on a grill, it tasted homemade. Combo, served with a drink and a side of fries. Menudo is on the menu. They make their own Mexican style pastry. Make sure to take quarters for the parking meter and cash for leaving a tip for your server, their POS system doesn't allow tips to be applied to credit cards, nor debit cards.
