I was hopeful going in. Plenty of small towns have Mexican families open up restaurants and serve great food.
Peeked in the kitchen - no mexicans. Not a good sign for Flores Family Mexican Restaurant.
Food was plentiful, but tasted like a bad buffet. The "steak" in the steak taco's reminded me of the old Cheers gag - beefalo, the fake beef. Processed and formed bits of some type of meat with soy vegetable protein. Insanely bad.
Beans were ok, rice was that nasty spanish rice the lunch ladies served you.
Staff was nice, place was clean, food was TERRIBLE. Any positive review of this place is either from the owner or from someone who has never had decent mexican food.

You are insane! This is some of the best Tex Mex EVER! You should try again and get something with their famous sauces (enchilada, sour cream enchiladas, fried beef burrito). These AUTHENTIC recipes are straight from down south and prepared lovingly by the MEXICAN FLORES FAMILY...
I have to agree with Erin... Flores is wonderful and authentic TEX-MEX at it's very best.
Flores began as family taco stand at local festivals... and has grown into the successful business that it is today.
The Flores family prepares the food - and is usually present when the restaurant is open.
I love the Chicken Burrito... and there isn't anything like the family hot sauce recipe!!!
I used to work with Juanita Flores - and we would LOVE it when she would bring 'Flores family recipes' to office carry-ins...
I urge you to try it again...keeping in mind, it is TEX MEX and not central mexican cuisine. Ask to meet one of the 'Flores' while you are there...
Truly one of the nicest families you'll ever meet...
