Nice place. First time eating there. Will definitely be going back.
I personally love yalls food but I think I should politely have yall be more aware of what you put in peoples orders. I personally don't eat Pork or Beef cause I'm Hindu and I found bacon bits in my burrito. So I unfortunately had to throw it away.
I eat here often and the food is decent. I've always used the drive thru tho. Today I decided to dine in and let me tell you NOTHING will make me leave an establishment faster then not being acknowledged. No hello, no welcome, no we will be right with you... avoiding eye contact and turning your back to a customer that has never entered you establishment is a good way to lose business. After a few minutes, I turned right back out and ate at the food truck across the way.
Tried for the first time! Food was great! Had the chicken fried steak breakfast….service is ok, waitress not attentive and just walks away answering you🤣, but food made up for it.
Hidden gem! Just happened to pass by this place and stopped in. Had the tacos El pastor plate. Delicious. Very authentic. Wasn't disappointed. Service was good.
Breakfast burritos are alright. I also ordered green chicken tamales and they were molded. Kind of disappointing because I took a 25 minute ride just to get there, THEN had to take another 25 minute ride back so I can get my money back. You would think they’d check what they’re sending out. Glad I wasn’t in a rush and looked over everything before we ate. We could’ve became really sick with the black mold.
Green enchiladas are not bad at all! The pastor tacos are top-notch, especially with the oily corn tortillas. The camaron a la diabla is very good and pretty spicy! Would be better if they used homemade flour tortillas for the burritos.
Nice place. I vistes this restaurant many times a friend and I, I even took some coworkers there for lunch. My favorite plates is: Menudo Beef tacos 5x⭐️ for those meals
Great food.
Great food and good food prices, (old school food )100%
Best breakfast in Midland Tx. Great menudo, and great service. Huevos rancheros are awesome. Update 10/24/24, 9:30 a.m. only one waitress, she did great job on all 6 tables, chips and salsa are the best in West Texas , coffee was good and today the food was actually cold when we received it. Not the waitress fault she was by herself. I did not eat my food due to the taste and that it was cold. Hopefully next time we will get our order on time while its still hot. Tortillas were very hard around the edges but they were hot.
Went for quick breakfast burritos Not good should of just skipped breakfast
I arrived and waited at least 10 minutes, they attended to everyone else who arrived after me and they never attended to me, I dont know why, but it is the worst service I have ever had in my life.
Their specialty burritos are out of this world. The service is friendly and the atmosphere is nice and clean.
Space is a little small but adds to the authentic feel of the place I recommend the Brisket Nachos
Love this place! Amazing food and awesome staff
I love J-peons food is always great service is good as well I highly recommend this place
Today went for lunch very poor staffing , waitress no good , I would ask for to get a me to go cup for my soup , she never brought it to me , I had to ask the Lil boy to bring it for me , n she was being very stingy with chips n salsa , good food but very poor service I hope they get rid of that stingy waitress
The food was ok, nothing to brag about. Had their enchilada plate. Was good and different from other restaurants.
Too much wait to receive the food inside the premises for how simple the dish was. Acceptable flavor.
I went there for the menudo. It was lacking spices, so it was lacking flavor. Very crowded and it takes quite a while to get your order taken and food served.
Came in today was totally ignored..I could understand if they where busy ..but nope they where both at the register talking personal stuff and laughing when I got up walked out No response ...Drove straight to Carambas ..was greeted seated and served all in 15... minutes .. highly recommend you go there.
I always like to order gorditas but this time they gave me bad service I spoke to the manager to express my complaint and as always the magic word sorry sorry I told him that instead of gorditas they looked like sopes all beaten very, very bad service I will never go again to buy there...as he told me I will return his sorry sorry
Food is delicious. The salsa is the best.
Fantastic food an service very large selection. Yumm
Amazing food! Service was outstanding! The constant line of vehicles shows this the place for breakfast and brisket burritos!
Food was bland
They serve menudo every day, and it s delicious! They have a great menu. I highly recommend Peno s. The staff is excellent!
No tea
Great burritos
Friendly staff and awesome sweet tea
The food is as hone made as you can find it. The fries had definitely a latin touch and omg they are so good. We came for breakfast for the 1st time and this place did not disappoint!
NO CASH RECIEPT
Was a take out order, called in route was ready when I got there ahead of the time quoted.
One our most favorite places to eat. Great food. Phenomenal service.
Ran out of tea, did not make fresh tea while we were there. I asked for water instead.
They do get pretty busy cheapest burritos in. Midland.
Love this place, always amazing..
Absolutely delicious food
They are good and have the best Menudo when its very well needed from a long night
Got a plain fajita burrito. Meat was tender but needed salt!!!
They have good food. My go to is breakfast burrito which is well worth the money. Prices are fair and the folks are friendly.
Love this place not only good food good service very affordable
Parking: Easy Recommended dishes
Loved it
Food was great best Ive had in Midland for homestyle Mexican dishes!
Cute little Mexican cafe. The food was good. I loved the hostess/server. She was very friendly.
The menudo is really good..
The tortillas taste store bought. They didn t listen when I said no cheese. Shredded chicken no flavor. The asado has great flavor but no spice at all. The ground beef and potatoes is something I ve never had before the way they do it is literally ground beef with hand cut French fries. Personally I didn t like it at all. Not even the salsa. It just did it give at all. Coke wasn t good either.
Very bad attitude and is a dirty place
I ve ate here and had alright experiences the servers are always nice though. But today I called a order for favor and the lady who works the phone and the window is rude and unprofessional. It s one thing to put someone on hold when they call but it s another thing to keep putting me on hold because she is preoccupied with something else interrupting me mid order. I get there and I m met with occasional eye contact by her but ultimately no hello, no I ll be right with you, and no service what s so ever. I only got service when someone else came to the front desk and started doing her job for her. All in all your only as good as your worse employee. I suggest proper training.
Great torta here was huge and flavorful.
I ordered menudo and it smelled like throw up I still gave it the benefit of the doubt and ate it. The menudo gave me food poisoning I would not recommend to anyone.
I got the tacos and they were amazing. I really enjoyed the tacos. Server was really friendly. This is a great place to eat.
Absolutely loved everything about it. I grew up in a small town and this was like going back in time. May be my new go to.
Ordered Menudo, what I got, bowl of homeny corn. If I wanted homeny corn I should have ordered Posole...
Bad experience with the owners sister or wife, very rude, wont greet you the right way she would tell you,I dont have time to say all that. . I ordered beef stew and only got two small peaces of beef. I told her about it and she said, Thats all your getting with a grin on her face. I ordered menudo and all I got was a bowl full of homeny corn and few peaces of stripe. This place is expensive and their food has no authentic Mexican flavor, your waisting your time here...
Really disappointed in these breakfast burritos. Every time I ve driven by in the morning they have a decent line in the drive through so I figured I d give it a try. They had no flavor at all and the potato they used was french fries and they tasted stale. I wish they had given me more salsa because that was the only way I could stand to eat them. The salsa was pretty good. But I won t be back.
Slow on orders, no really slow. Parking: None Food : 4/5 |
Great food and good price.
Chile Verde burrito was in point
Great place for breakfast or lunch burritos
Best .Menudo in Texas period....
Good place overall. Quiet and clean. Menudo was pretty good. Chips and salsa was ok. Staff was great!
Girl at the window has some kind of attitude....Ill never go there again....
Waitress very nice
Worst service ever. Waiter cant get an order right even after looking at the menu. Got the wifes order wrong. I had the ribeye Ala Mexicana, came out, wasnt a ribeye to begin with, meat was tough as hell. Well according to the cook who was laughing, apparently the cow was old and tough. The cashier made it right, Ill give her that. Other than that, I wouldnt recommend this place. My daughter didnt want to go for a reason, should of listened.
The torta is delicious! My husband loves this place his coworkers introduced him and I tried it for the first time and it was delicious!
Menudo and tamales are nasty, I would not recommend for anyone.
Excellent food great service one of the best in town
Food was good! Had breakfast burritos and they were Deliciously Big Oh they have a DRIVE-TRU!! Just Incase you re not ready and have yesterday s makeup like ME! Food
They take 10 min to take an order then 30 min to make 2 burritos the onions are as big as a dime .. dry brisket wow like .. not satisfied horrible customer service
Not bad but not great. Fair prices and quick service
Food was great! Very filling, great flavors, and satisfying for for the price, server was very nice and attentive, and the restaurant offered nice atmosphere for being a hole in the wall type of restaurant, definitely recommend!
Awesome brisket burritos, breakfast burritos and tamales!
Love the menudo
The sweet Tamales are delicious!
All beans, no meat, poor flavor, but hey, it did have the color I was looking for
Finally, we found great gorditas in this town. Friendly service and fair prices, dont forget to try the queso.
Great food .
We enjoyed our food. I had been wanting menudo and no one has it and they did. Thank you
Authentic homemade Mexican food
The best Mexican restaurant in Midland, I have found. Authentic Mexican food. Has a Drive through, so you dont have to go inside if you dont want to. Also they accept phone orders to be picked up
Easily the best chips in midland.
Love J-Penos..Been coming here for years. Tony was great. Just wish the Midland location served Micheladas. Great breakfast burritos too.
Good Mendo
Usely my experience is great but the plate I got wasn t at all good it was nasty server made us pay for the plate even though I only ate two bits. Worst experience I ve had may not be back due to how my complaint was handled. Had to then stop and get food because I was still hungry.
Rich, good service, good prices.
The best buttitos in my opinion in town no matter breakfast, lunch, or dinner!
Good service and the burritos are great and good price as well.
Food took too long to come out was not hot .
I eat here ..good salsa.
Went here for dinner tonight. Steak fajita nachos. Omg yummy! This place is known for their breakfast and lunch but I can tell you dinner was great!
This place is not good at all the menudo was affull and It did not taste good
Hole in the wall place with amazing authentic Mexican food at great prices. We will definitely be back to eat here!
No flavor at all!! No salsa with my order, no salt on any of the meats not to mention seasoning, beans taste like canned
Love this place. My favorites are chile verde and asado. Highly recommend.
Great food best service!!!!
J-penos big omelet burrito is great we had brisket and bacon they where delicious...
Great food good size burrito for the price great service
My cousin mom alway my favorite employee in here she give me a Mexican bottle and tamale and I love the food would recommend been here she nice
Always great food and fast service. Best menudo In town and you can get it 7 days a week all day.
I love gorditas plate
Egg omelette with chorizo had way too much chorizo in it
This place is always really good and I usually get the chile relleno with beans and its really good! But the taste fell short the last time i was here though
Been going here since it opened. Called in to place an order and lady on phone had an awful attitude because I was asking a few questions so I cancelled my order. Good luck getting my business ever again.
Great food (menudo) and service. Definitely will be back.
Small place, but very clean, everything organized, good portions, excellent flavor Speed and attention ideal place for weekend lunches
Food is always great. I hate that one of the employees always has an attitude when I go. If they can work that out it would be awesome.
I recently started working in midland and one day one of my co-workers came back with a brisket burrito she told me where to go and I m HOOKED they are AMAZING!!!
I thought everything was very delicious ,goods sorroundings, service was great, I enjoyed it very much!!
Wasnt impressed. Menudo wasnt that good at all. Waitress was nice and friendly but I wont be going back.
These burritos are fire!!!! I mean really good! Delicioso! And the Chips are signature! Vegetarian options: Bean and Cheese
Called to make a mobile order this morning, lady had a BAD ATTITUDE. Didnt even ask for a name for my order, huffed and puffed when I asked for a total. Customer service is a big part in the food industry. Gotta do better.
Ate menudo here there wasnt much meat on the menudo tge flavor wasnt good either smell kond of bad.
Love their prices and foods not too shabby. Good salsa too.
Tried this place for the first time about a month ago. Have been back almost every week since. Really good salsa and chips. Queso is alright & the spiciness of the green sauce is inconsistent. Over all very good!
Great service! Food is alright, nuff said
Very Good
Great food and service
we alway_sceat here...monster burritos yay
Menudo was great!
Not to bad
I went to ask for broth and it took them a long time to get it cold.
Love their food. Everytime we visit our nieces in Midland we visit J-Penos. Highly recommend it
SLOW SERVICE . Second time this happened to us. We definitely not coming back. We are just eating chips and salsa for 40 minutes. Really??? if you need to grab lunch quick don t go there.
Good breakfast! Tortas are great!
It says they open at 6:30 and wait till 7:15 and still close
Outstanding food. Took a little longer to get food. Because it is a small family restaurant. But well worth it. Server kept tea and chips full.
6.13.21 Ordered a Bacon & Egg burrito and specifically asked for no cheese (I have stomach ulcers so any bit of dairy can be incredibly painful) . Ofcourse, they put cheese on it so I go back and ask for another burrito and made it clear that I didnt want cheese on, that I had just ordered one the same way and it came out with cheese. The guy at the drive thru window didnt care much for the issue or my concerns. I got my second order without cheese but as I was finishing up...I find this in my burrito...can officially say I AM DONE WITH THEM! WORST EXPERIENCE EVER. Better off making my own burritos at home.
So just ate here for the first time and I ordered menudo and a egg and bean burrito. Start with the latter, the eggs seems a bit overcooked and dry the tortilla was not homemade, which is very inexpensive to make and makes a huge difference. The menudo did lack flavor (no salt) or seasonings. But the meat was tinder. They received one star because of the waitress scooping ice from a ice chest using and un gloved hand and the cup. So I know the cooks are not using them either.
The menu says one price and when you go to pay at the cashier they charge you a more expensive one.
Very good food. Very few who is open on Sunday. Their Chile Verde con carne is very tasty. Featured here is J-penos omlete with CCC.
Pretty good burritos
6 burritos for 50$ I think thats expensive
Best chile verde
Canned menudo taste better than this, when I got my order the sauce is orange not red , I got no onion no cilantro whatsoever, no lime no Oregon or Any spices with my order, worst menudo that I ve had in my life like I said the canned menudo taste better than this
Food was good but a little pricey though
not very good
It was good. A nice little hole in the wall place. Service was good, the menudo was good!
It s always been my go to place for Menudo, but the last two times I ve gone, I paid $10 for a cup of harmony, there s no meat in it! I hate to find a new place for Menudo because I love the flavor of theirs but I can put chili powder on Harmony!!!!
The food is only second to their service. The Wife and I are regulars and try to go at least once a week for breakfast. All of it, everything is delicious. Sometimes there is a wait, its that good.
First there was a set of young black men in front of me the lady was rude. Then when I got to the counter she was rude telling me when I can and cant order something because they dont know how to charge for it. As if it is my fault. They need an attitude check. Heavy.
Ask for the green chicken and cheese enchiladas topped with an egg, so delicious!! Even though the chips and salsa is superb!
Loved their enchiladas service was ok
The food is passable but the waitress has a very bad attitude and is rude
Good service!!
Very good
First time here. Menudo is delicious, asado was amazing. Will definitely return next time we are in West Texas
