Las Cazuelas

Ordered the Special: 3 barbacoa tacos with a side cup of menudo. The barbacoa was really clean. The tortillas were really soft and the menudo was delish!

This place has been here for ever still taste as good as it did the first time I tried it the food is excellent the staff is amazing now my children come here and there all grown up soon we'll not that soon my grandchildren will come hear

Not bad but not great and really not real good. The food was not Hot and that May be the reason I'm saying it. They knew too because the shredded cheese was not melted on top of what should have been a HOT PLaTE. Oh well....

This isn't a fair rating since we only went in for chips, salsa and margaritas, but we can't seem to find a decent margarita around Harlingen for the life of us. Im6sure COVID has affected everyone, but salsa was pure tomatoe sauce and chips were from an HEB bag, if I didn't know better.

My boyfriend's dad recommended this place and I was a little hesitant since I had never been there. We showed up at 8:00 a.m. It was early so not a lot of people were there so our service was quite quick. We both ended getting the same plate with barbacoa, eggs, potatoes and refried beans. The plates came with tortillas and I asked for flour. The flour tortillas were hands down the best I've had. They were large, perfectly cooked, and incredibly tasty. The refried beans were homemade and y'all, they were amazing. I feel like they added in some bacon grease (they may not have) but it tasted awesome! I didn't like the barbacoa which is why I couldn't give this restaurant a 5 star review. The barbacoa tasted bland. And I didn't like the texture of this particular barbacoa. My boyfriend loved it though so maybe I just wasn't in the mood for it. Also, I thought the potatoes were undercooked but my boyfriend did not. Again, maybe they caught me at a bad time. Either way I enjoyed this place and can't wait to come back to try some tacos!

The parking lot is a bit small but once you park and go inside, the restaurant opens an ambience of chill and Mex! The waiters and Manager Rosa are ready to order and serve you. Never have I had a problem with respectable timing and a great meal. I had menudo and my fam had carne guisada.

First drink ordered was a water served with a cockaroach. Waitress laughs when situation is explained and continues to ask what else we would like to order. She then explains the roach probably died before falling in the water. Then another waitress tends to us once she leaves.

I would rate the food five stars just because i love,love ,love mexican food. However, don't get it twisted i know good mexican food from bad mexican food. Five stars for good food and good memories. I would recommend the chalupas!!! Omg..they are muy rico! The price is affordable and a local favorite for me. Miss the convenience of good food right down the street. April

Good food recommend this place to anyone who wants good Mexican food and the have drinks too

Las Cazuelas has been here at this location in Harlingen, Tx for many, many years. They serve a wide variety of true Mexican and Tex-Mex meals but generally no better and no worse than dozens of other Mexican restaurants in the area. I have eaten here many times over the years but hadn't been in the last couple of years due to the Covid situation. Yesterday, I took my wife out for dinner and Las Cazuelas came to mind so off we went. My wife had the broiled fish (which had too little fish and way too many vegetables) and I had the Carne Asada. Since I don't hardly ever drink anything but a couple of sips, I seldom waste the $2 on a soda and yesterday was no different so I had water. The water tasted HORRIBLE (like it came out of the river). Other than that, our dinners were okay. Not great, not good, just okay. The reason I have given them such a low rating (almost went with one star instead of two) is this: they charged me a 4% upcharge for paying with my credit card. There was NO notice of this. I didn't know about this upcharge until I reviewed my receipt. For this, WE WILL NOT BE RETURNING.
