The wife and I stayed the night at The Red Lion Inn and decided to have lunch at Raul's and Theresa's. Our server was Veronica, she was great. The food this day was awesome.We will definitely visit again.

Traveling to Avondale, from New Jersey, tired and hungry and I wanted a big dinner, I found this restaurant through a Google search and it was worth every effort. This was one of the most delicious carne asada meals I gave had amongst all the Mexican restaurants I have been around the country. The staff and the host were equally wonderful. I will definitely be back.

This place is a family favorite and has been for some time now. Even after they change locations. I should say added locations changed owners. Both locations have great Mexican food I recommend Teresa specials. Services also great.

As soon as you walk in, it smells like homemade Mexican food. The aroma is so delicious, and the service makes you feel like home. We had menudo and breakfast with some yummy tortillas. Nothing on the menu disappoints. They sat us down in less than 5 minutes on a Saturday morning and quickly brought out our micheladas. We love coming here at least 2-3 times a month to eat out.

DONT LISTEN TO ANY BAD REVIEWS ! We have been coming here for 18yrs and never one time was the food or service bad ..The water is terrible lol if they fixed that they would be flawless and if you can't drink soda like me then just bring a bottle of water..Even still the food is the best Mexican food anywhere and I've been all over the u.s ..The tamales ,tacos ,enchiladas are incomparable! Chips and salsa and service are all great !

Taco salads were so tasty. The taco shell was fresh and the shredded meat was tender and juicy. Shredded beef taco was delish! Loved the beans on the bottom of the plate to secure the bowl. Crispy taco shell, tender beef and beautiful presentation. The chips and salsa were phenomenal. The chips were served warm and the salsa has a kick with fresh green onions amd cilantro making it a chunky delight. Drinks were good. Margarita had a twist of carbonation we couldnt just have one. Server was attentive and quick. Only downfall was the 3.00 charged for my to go salsa container. Nimodo. #Bomba
