The tough thing about going to any Mexican place in TX is the reality that a restaurant is either a good Tex Mex or decently and authentically Mexican, but few restaurants can be both. You can't burnish your claim to making a proper cochinita pibil while also slathering scoops of sour cream over your chimichangas. Avila's is a venerable Tex... More

Host sucked, waiter was great, food was average at best and over priced, 3 tacos for 8 bucks, Mjl34 if this is in your top 5 places anywhere in the US then email me and i will personally invite you to my house and my wife will easily be #1

Guy Fieri from the Food Network loved this restaurant and so did we! Hubby had the brisket and I had the fish tacos - awesome! Would never have found this place on our own - neighborhood and outside of place is a bit sketchy - but we were so pleased with the food, the service and the price!

The food was excellent and our waiter (the owner's grandson) was most helpful and friendly. He recommended the brisket taco and paired it with a... More

I love both the brisket tacos and chicken mole entree! The salsa is super hot and the staff is friendly and helpful.

I read all the reviews and our group decided to try it out (we are all from out of town). We arrived and the parking lot was empty and two people in our group we not sure of the neighborhood. Three of us wanted to stay because there's no way all the reviews could be wrong. We turned around and... More

Quickly seated and great service! I was happy to see the Diners, Drive-ins and Dives combo on the menu after just eating down the street at Maple & Motor (another Triple D spot) I did not have much room; but I was able to try everything featured on the show on one plate. The fresh made salsa is on the... More
