Danny’s

Very very satisfied with our food and the great service. Enchiladas Pablano were delicious! Absolutely nothing to complain about. No wait and very fast service. It’s a must if you are in a hurry and want wonderful food. We will be back!

I come here for breakfast everytime I come to Laredo. 1.99 mariachi is hard to beat. Very nice to find cheap food that is good.

This is not the best Mexican food place, but it is yummy! The customer service is a hit or miss. Just in case you are not from this city, most servers know English but will most likely speak Spanish. I like the enchilada plates or the corral plate. Both are delicious! Their lemonade is amazing though! You won’t regret coming here!

This place is the solely best customer service restaurant in Laredo. It’s been awhile since I had an authentic Mexican breakfast however the huevos rancheros plate was prepared well and fulfilling. FYI you can order margaritas along with your breakfast meal in the morning thought that was interesting.

Great selection and big portions. Not the most memorable dining experience but a solid place to get a meal.

Eating here is in most cases eating better than a lot of Tex-​Mex Restaurants in Austin. Danny’s is a local chain but they are all equally good. Good selection on the menu and the prices are very affordable. Great service, clean bath rooms, good locations. The salsa is good with a good bit of heat and the freshly made chips are a plus. The ice tea is brewed and not from a jar. All in all good food, service, locations, prices is a good combination. Rice, Charro Beans, refried beans are good. Some of my favorite dishes are the La Famosa Tampiquena, Mollejitas, Milanesa c/​papas. The CABRITO Asada is spectacular!!!

Don’t eat here, moctezuma revenge weekend long

What can I say about Danny’s, well I compare it to Denny’s but Mexican food. This chain is every where in Laredo and it’s almost impossible to miss one if your in town.
The food is above average and the resturaunts are always clean. Being able to speak spanish is a plus but not something to worry about if you don’t. The wait staff is always friendly and service is good.

If you’ve ever been to Laredo, then you’ve probably heard of Danny’s. They seem to be on every corner, and maybe the most popular local chain restaurant. This is my grandpa’s favorite place to eat. So much so that he received a generous $ 100 gift card.
On a recent visit south, we ate here 2 times in a row: for dinner and breakfast. I’ve been here many times, a typical stop when we visit my 89 year old grandpa. As always, it’s delicious and no one has any complaints. Now, a question that might be in the back of your mind is, do I need to know Spanish to eat here? Well, it certainly wouldn’t hurt to have basic level 1 Spanish knowledge. Yes, our group was mixed dining here, but our server spoke Spanish the entire time to us. And sure, they know English (I think) because my ginger father orders in English and they reply in Spanish, he looks at my mom who replies to her in Spanish. And that’s the way the world works when your vocabulary is limited. «Quiero café, por favor,» except say it in the most gringo way possible (Key-​arrow cafay poor faver)…it causes some giggles.
I once briefly dated a guy who was entirely serious when he asked me «How do you say ‘no’ in Spanish?» In my mind I thought… is this a joke? He also asked me «What is ma-​nan-​a?» Ayy Dios mio! I can’t possibly be dating someone who is of level 10 gringo status. Two years living in Texas, his sister married a man from Peru, his nephew’s name is Mateo and you don’t know a damn word in Spanish? Did he even know that Mateo = Matthew in English?! I believe in signs, and this was around the time when Jay-Z’s song «On to the Next One» was a big hit. I heard it while in the car with him, and soo… you get my drift here.
But seriously, if you’re ever in Laredo, Danny’s is the go-​to spot. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner, they even have a bar. Menudo is a hot commodity and only offered on Saturdays & Sundays. I ordered huevos a la Mexicana with rice and beans and their amazing hashbrowns. It’s basically on the verge of being migas, minus the tortilla chips. But the real delight were the AMAZING tortillas. Perfect and just how I like my flour tortillas: not pale, browned spots and crunchy.
According to my healthy almost 90 year old grandpa, the secret to long life is eating light meals, exercise and… Sprite.

They have a great special, the enchilada plate for 4.99. I couldn’t complain. Quick service, clean atmosphere, and a big plate with beans and rice for $ 5. Normally I would give it a 3 star but the price I’ll give it 4. It isn’t as good as some other hole in the walls there but it is a solid place.

Was down in Laredo to help out with a training session and one of my colleagues from Laredo decided to bring us here. I was expecting amazing goodness, figuring that this was her own backyard. Boy, was I underwhelmed. This is basically just a run of the mill Mexican food chain. I should have known better. In my opinion, the best Mexican food places are obscure, non-​neon lighted joints that you almost fear entering.
If you’re starving, come here. The food is edible. But if you want good food, look elsewhere.
