Tex-Mex · Midland, Michigan
Real Tex-Mex, made the long way.
Slow-braised birria. Hand-pressed tortillas. Charred salsas that we grind every morning. Family-run on South Saginaw Road since day one — a little louder, a little warmer, and a whole lot closer to Texas than the sign out front suggests.
11:00 AM – 9:00 PM
A neighborhood place with a Texas accent.
We are a small, family-run Tex-Mex kitchen on South Saginaw Road. The recipes started in a home kitchen in Laredo and moved north with us in the early 2000s. Everything we plate today — the birria, the carne asada, the chile relleno — is the same thing we cook for our own table on Sundays.
“If it does not taste like it came out of somebody's abuela's kitchen, it does not leave our line.”
We are not a fast-casual chain. We do not do frozen bags of shredded cheese. Salsas are ground in-house each morning, tortillas are pressed daily, and the margaritas are made with fresh lime — never a mixer.

What people order twice.
The full menu runs three pages — tacos, plates, burritos, fajitas, and a bar card. These are the plates that come back to the kitchen empty most nights.

Margaritas, mixed the long way.
We squeeze our limes in the morning, use real agave, and shake every drink to order. The bar pours a rotating list of tequilas and mezcals — some smoky, some bright, some that you will want to sip slowly and think about.
Happy hour runs Monday through Friday, 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM. House margaritas, draft beer, and a short list of bar snacks at half price.
