Don Gollito Restaurant

STAY AWAY!
Keep out of old town Harlingen.
Why?
This restaurant is becoming more popular every week. Too many people are taking advantage of the Andy's Burger, the brisket and Poblano pepper plate that when I get there they are sold out.
Really now, just a great little restaurant Food, prices and service are all over and above. Found this place in early 2022 and have been there two to three times a month. It's a long trip from the island just for brunch but well worth it.
If your happy when u leave... Ring that Bell. They appreciate it.
See you today for lunch

The atmosphere was so nice and I felt like I was deep in mexico. The decorations was too adorable! Staff are too kind and the dish i order was great. Idk maybe its just a thought but i was expecting to get the plates from mexico to complete the vibe. Like the same material as the coffee cups decoration on the walls. I order gorditas and they were so good! The salsa was a perfect level of spiciness. The lemonade was so fresh i was beyond happy. The oatmeal (idk why i order that with gorditas,lol) was so delicious, everything was amazing. The presentation of the gorditas wasn't anything great to take a picture of it so i didn't take one. I did added two more things so it came out pricey. In total with 4 dollar tip it was $25.34(gorditas x2, lemonade, oatmeal cup). Makes my hometown atx an embarrassment to the mexican food culture. I will definitely come back here again!

Don Gollito Restaurant is a hidden gem that deserves recognition for their excellent customer service and their Mexican food taste is off the charts. I always have a great experience when I dine in their beautiful quaint establishment. Their prices are very reasonable, and they could be higher because their just that GOOD. Today I had their Breakfast Special plate: simple eggs, beans, potatoes, flour tortilla and a coffee. I don't know how they can make these simple common dishes taste so good. Patrons that frequent there express their satisfaction with a bell located by the door as you leave and ring it (if they are happy with their experience). What a great way to interact and get not only verbal feedback, but also a great tradition in the making. Their location is hard to find, but if you are reading this, you can now ask Google Maps to take you there. I have so much to write about this place, but I want to let the photos I add to speak for themselves. Support your local community businesses. Don't take my word for it, come experience or yourself. It is worth the your valuable time with you and your family/friends.

Just to add: I have enjoyed eating at this establishment at lunch. And I highly recommend them. Their enchiladas are incredible!

This place is so cute inside. The food is amazing. The price are not bad at all. The service was excellent. The most fun part of all, is walking out the door to ring their bell as a sign that you enjoyed your meal.
