October 16, 2024Nestled along the bustling River Walk, this spot offers a lively atmosphere and quick service. I enjoyed the Fajitas, which were tasty despite their giant cuts! The hot sauce was a fiery delight that paired well with the chips. A solid choice for a casual meal!

September 09, 2024I stopped by this cozy spot on the river walk and enjoyed a decent meal. The beef fajitas were tasty, even if oddly cut. Service was fast, but my drink order was mixed up. Great location and hot sauce with chips was a hit! Will return for a quick bite.

September 05, 2024My visit to The Original Mexican Restaurant was a mixed bag, but the location is truly unbeatable! 🌊
Situated right on the River Walk, the atmosphere is vibrant and casual. I ordered the beef fajitas, which were decently tasty but larger pieces than I expected. The complimentary chips and hot sauce were a highlight, with the hot sauce packing a great punch!
Service was quick but a bit scattered; our drinks took longer than expected. The dessert menu looked tempting, though I left before trying it. Overall, it's a nice spot for a casual meal, but maybe not if you're seeking exceptional Mexican cuisine. 😊
