Danny's Restaurant

My parents live a ways away but make the trip, passing several other locations. This is a larger location but the staff is friendly and quick. They love the Menudo, its is pretty great. The small portion was perfect because they are very generous. I find in Laredo everyone has the tortillas de harina (flour) with their meals. I must agree. If you're ever in the south of Texas you should check out Danny's Restaurants.

This was a Sunday stop and it was a good one with lots of local flavor. The friendly waitress was attentive and everyone said the food was good. I enjoyed the mole in particular. If the Mariachis had come in a bit earlier or if we had stayed longer, we would have caught a few Mariachi tunes.

It's a Danny's so that being said you should no what to expect. What makes this Danny's better then the other ones is the people and management walks around and talks to you. Their always very nice and you never have to wave anyone down for a refill. Great place for lunch if your at work or just don't want to wait to get in somewhere.

We've been here over 30 minutes and still haven't gotten our food. To top it off they just came to tell us they don't have soup. They could have told us 30 minutes ago. We just finished our second batch of chips and haven't offered to bring more. Employees don't look very happy. It was supposed to be a late breakfast not a late lunch. I don't think we're coming back here. It's sad because food used to be good. Very disappointing!

I've always had mixed feelings about Danny's, but my family loves to come here. So I end up here too. First, the style is typical old Laredo. It's a little over the top and gaudy, but it's not horrible. Speakers are set up outside so you can hear the music playing as you enter. I don't really care for the waitress uniforms (pink button up shirt, black skirt, and I'm pretty sure they wear pantyhose, even in the summer); they are dated and give off this old school flight attendant vibe (minus the hat... I think).The restaurant itself tends to get crowded and very loud, but one could say it's an electric vibe.Anyway, my favorite time to go is breakfast because TACOS! or mariachis as they are called here. I'm going on a tangent here to talk about my favorite menu section, the"Diet Plates." Remember when diet meant cottage cheese and peaches? No? Well it happened once upon a time and you can still order it at this restaurant! I tried to snap a menu pic, but I think because of the dim lighting, my pics never comes out right.So now that you have the scene, let's talk tacos and coffee. The coffee floweth like water. Half way through the cup you're offered a refill and again and again until you notice you're a little jittery. A++++++ in my opinion. Coffee comes with tons of half and half, but the sweetener options are kind of in the same era as the peaches and cottage cheese- sweet n low, equal, or white sugar. I went for the pink stuff in one cup and made it last.The tacos are huge! Two and I lasted the entire day until dinner time. Although they were good, the tortillas were a little tough, but that could be because I was talking so much (kinda like I am in this review). The tortillas were stuffed and overflowing with potato and egg and bean and cheese so I had to start with a fork. The salsa is a little runny, but a perfect blend of spice and seasoning. Oh I also heard about how great their pancakes were. So we got one on the side. Yummmm! And I don't even care for pancakes. It was thick and dense and delicious! I can definitely do that for breakfast again.My one complaint. Everything is served with a sprig of parsley! Even the pancake. But that's not enough to remove stars.On a side note. One reviewer said the staff were rude to people who don't speak Spanish. I don't speak a lot of Spanish, but I know enough to order and say please and thank you. My fiance speaks no Spanish. He ventured out to Danny's very early on Christmas morning (as we all decided to sleep in and he's a morning bird). He said he didn't think the waitress understood him, but he managed to order. Although he said she brought out more food than he ordered, she was never rude to him. He even spoke to the manager and asked about learning his Lyft cards there, which they happily did (and which we saw were still out when we came here this morning).Everything in this place runs with crazy efficiency. I can't think of a reason to remove stars other than some of the dated feeling, but even that isn't too terrible. Yay tacos! Mariachis!

The place was clean and quiet. The food was excellent and the service was awesome as well.

When for the 1st time as my brother invited me here while visiting Laredo. Portions were big and the food was delicious the server was also very kind and anything we need it they were happy to provide.

Nice venue :) love the look and tge old pictures are exciting to look at :D service could be better though, more attentive

Two words: THEIR ENCHILADAS. This was the place we used to come to when I was growing up and I LOVED their enchiladas. It's been at least 10 years since I had them - I went this weekend and OMG what a wonderful moment. They were delicious and I miss them already.For reference, if you've ever watched Ratatouille, when the critic tastes the food and gets a perfect flashback of his childhood enjoying his food -- that was me after trying them. 10 years later and they still have my heart.

The food is usually good here. Probably my favorite of their 8-10 locations. Service is usually good enough, but Spanish is recommended.I like their enchiladas poblanas (mole).I usually get the Texas special or the Saltillo. Burritos are pretty good and their breakfasts are Tex mex classics.
