El Tejavan Mexican Restaurant ·$$

Staying true to its Texas roots, the hefty portion sizes of Mexican cuisine at El Tejavan are sure to fill you up. However, forget  about the usual Tex-Mex fare that this state is known for, this eatery serves up homemade Mexican dishes straight from the recipes books of family members in Guadalajara, Mexico. Huge chunks of fresh avocado are expertly mixed with the homemade pico de gallo to create some of the best guacamole in town. Their best selling plate of carne asada is juicy, tender and just the right thickness to wrap in a homemade corn tortillas. Breakfast is another highlight here with flavorful egg dishes dominating the menu.
