The corner of this small shopping strip (in the HEB parking lot) has sporatically had one Mexican restaurant or another in it for years. It's been empty for quite some time, so it was nice to see it occupied again, especially with the economy not where it should be. Los Reyes is owned by the same folks who own Los Reyes in Cedar Park, where I haven't eaten...yet.

Los Reyes is bright, open and very inviting. The night I went they had a good crowd. It took a while to get my tacos (still working out the kinks) but the chips and salsa kept coming. The chips are thin and crispy, and are served with two sauces. One very smooth red sauce with an unremarkable favor, the other not as smooth, with a bit of cilantro, and a nice little bite to it.

Our wait person was prompt with any requests (more napkins please) and friendly. Didn't have a beer for some reason, but their selection is the typical mix...the American beers, Corona, Negro Modelo, etc. A nice touch was my water came with a lime slice and I didn't even have to ask.

My tacos came on two plates (??) and piled with thickly grated cheese and lettuce. Priced right for their size, the cook could have done a bit better job draining the meat, but my shells didn't get too soggy to hold. The meat had a bit too much cumin for my taste, but over all was very good.

Likely a place to visit again.
