That new resturant "El Jinete" on Waldron in the little strip mall by the School. Whoops up some really good breakfast tacos the tortillas are awesome. They open at 6am. I will keep checking them out . They got Jalicos beat by a mile on quality and taste. My opinion only...IMS My Debbie also said they are good,thats a big plus.

you also need to check out Las Palmas there where the "new" Ace Hardware used to be before it shut down (as well).

This was posted only for its proximity to local fishing. For those who want to grab a taco on the way to the ramp. I'm sure Las palmas is fine but it's outta my way. There is also more than enough room to get in and out of the parking lot with big boats. Las Palmas has room to for boats. I just think its nice having a la familia style place so close to the casa.

no there for a short time they opened a "new" Ace there in God's Country across SPID from where Padre Island Supply was. lasted almost a year, then its shut down about the time they opened the one on the island, which has some fishing gear (to keep this thread on topic)
HA!
X2 on Almeida there at Glenoak. get a couple of steak tacos on your way to the ramp.

Anybody ever have the corona/margarita combo at las palmas. Its an interesting little drink, I can't remember what they call it, but I think it might be Coronita or something like that. Its worth checking out if you are there. (wouldn't have more than one if you are driving)

| I ate there last week and I was also impressed. The food was great and the price was good. I have not taken the wife yet. It's going to be tough to get her away from Jalisco's Pastor tacos.... |
