No website.
My wife and I went here when we first moved to Tyler, as we had heard about a good Mexican restuarant on the loop west of 69. We saw a colorful building that looked pretty decent on the outside.
The spread: Well this is an all you can eat Mexican buffet. There are fajitas, tacos, nachos, rice beans, and a few desserts.
The verdict: This place was just awful. I am a fan of Pancho's in Houston, which is an all you can eat Mexican place where you raise a flag to get more food (which isn't great, but makes up for being plentiful). I tried just about everything they had out there, not so much because I was to give a full and thorough review of the place, but rather because I was looking for something edible to justify spending money there. My wife was giving me the evil eye the whole time we were there and had maybe 2-3 bites of the food before she decided she didn't want the punishment. I am a glutton for punishment and kept trying. There was nothing redeeming about the food. I did have a very nice young girl who provided pretty good service for a buffet. One bonus is that, although I didn't feel well after eating here, I did not get violently ill.
Edible Tyler Roses: 0 of 5, please do not punish yourself.
Hey there-
ReplyDeleteGreat blog. I love your honesty and your reviews of the local restaurants in Tyler!
I tried to look for your contact information but wasn't able to find an email address of any kind. Would you be interested in reviewing the new Chipotle coming to town? I actually work with Chipotle's media relations team in the South and would love to send you the details. If so, let me know...my email address is kathryn@spmcommunications.com
Best,
Kat
