Excellent find! We've been to Lake Ray Robert's for years and never ventured just 15 minutes away to this great place. Very unexpected cool atmosphere and look on the outside. The inside is great as well with several seating options. The staff worked seamlessly together helping each other out. We sat quickly and were served quickly. Excellent food and drinks. We'll definitely be back!

Food was good. Fajita trio for one was just right for 2 of us. Great portions. We were part of a group and we were in and served quickly.

Our family Christmas this year was January 3rd due to one of my sons working out of state and one of the others living Deep South East Texas. I did a take out catering from Manuelito’s and I can’t say enough about how top notch the entire experience was. I ordered fajitas for 20 splitting between beef and chicken. Both meats had fantastic flavor and the beef was so tender you could cut it with a fork. I’m sure this was a weird request but I asked for the veggies to be separated and they followed my request and they were packaged separately. The presentation and packaging of the fajitas and all the sides couldn’t have been any better. I had a pickup time of 11:00 am and I arrived at that time and it was completely ready. My family couldn’t stop bragging about how wonderful the food was, thank you to all who worked on and put this order together for me. You can’t go wrong eating at this restaurant as each and every time I’ve been here it’s always delicious!

Manuelitos catered our rehearsal dinner for our son’s wedding recently and we cant say enough good things! First, Manny gave us a very reasonable price quote, showed up early to set everything up, then came back with the food, and stayed til everyone was served. The food was EXCELLENT and everyone loved it. Highly, highly recommend!

We love this place! Every time we come here, we get the fajitas—they’re absolutely amazing! The flavors are fresh, perfectly seasoned, and served sizzling hot. On top of that, the service is fabulous, the staff is always friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is warm, lively, and welcoming. Whether you’re here for a quick lunch or a fun night out, this restaurant never disappoints. Highly recommend!

Eat Mexican food I’ve had in a LONG time! Drinks are great as well. Service was excellent! Good amount of parking, gets busy so go early. Had the enchilada combination- all delicious but especially loved the ground beef one with the Rojas sauce. Beans and rice were delicious and they give you A LOT! Highly recommend!
