Got tostadas here- real good grub. Took me three days to actually finish my dish- had a whole lot of really good meat. Good beans, and the rice was also super good. Ah, and the salsa! Love the salsa.

I would drive past this windowless restaurant all the time, and found it intriguing, so I tried it. The staff was super friendly. I sat at a table between the stain glass bar partition and the active fire place. I liked the murals and decor. The menu had an 'about this place' section which was nice to read. Served chips and salsa, the queso was ok (tasted like a grocery jar). Chicken floutas were served with rice and beans and came with sour cream, lettuce and tomatoes. I would try other plates.

I come here often. I love the botana . It's my go to meal . I've been coming here for years. Always good food and nice staff

First time back since I moved away 20 years ago and this place still has the same exact wonderful charm it did then. The amount of food you get is also a great value without sacrificing quality or flavor. Its nice for a sit-down restaurant not cost an arm and a leg for a filling dinner with tasty drinks too. Hope to be back again soon!

The food was amazing. It was my first time adventuring to this beautiful restaurant and I loved it. I had chicken quesadillas with some Spanish rice and the salsa was so delicious and just everything was spot on perfect it was my Valentine’s Day dinner and I loved it.

I came here the other night with some friends. I know I have been here before, but it was long ago. The place was pretty busy when we got there, but we got seated quickly, which was nice. I have to say many people hype this place up, so when I came here, I was worried I would be disappointed. I ordered Tacos (3 hard shells) and three corn tortillas filled with your choice of seasoned beef or seasoned chicken. Deep fried, then topped with shredded cheese, fresh chopped lettuce, and tomatoes. They also came with Rice and Beans. I have to say they were delicious. The price to portion was a good value; hands down, great food. My only downside is I* think their margaritas are way overpriced. 36 for a half liter; it was a decent margarita but, in my opinion, not worth 36 bucks. Maybe I am spoiled by another place I go to, and I get a Texas Margarita Grand Marne and Patron and Mixer for 9.99 with more than a half liter in a glass. That is my only rub other than that this place is fantastic food and customer service is five stars. I am not sure why this place has a 3-star rating on yelp; I am still giving a 5-star review and think they are overcharging for Margaritas. However, the food is fantastic.

This is a fantastic family owned restaurant. Everyone is always cheerful and very kind. It’s wonderful to see all the smiles. The food and the margaritas are amazing! Good food, good people make one incredible, happy experience. I recommend it all the time and everyone agrees how wonderful the dining experience is there. Love dining in although you can get food and margaritas to go as well. Blessings

Amazing meal... my family has been coming to this restaurant for at least 50yrs; It was astonishing to find that my favorite dish [tacos titanicos] tasted exactly as I remembered it from when I was a child. I hadn't had El Nibble Nook for several years since I live in Atlanta, GA... it's still the best! I recommend getting 1 beef & 1 chicken taco... variety is the spice of life, my friends!
