Elena's was a delight to visit. Their food is excellent (I had the beef fajitas for two, and there was plenty to go around)! The beef was incredibly tender - no knife needed to cut it, and the overall flavor of the dish was wonderfully delicious! The charro beans were the best I think I've ever had. Plus, the entire staff that I encountered was very friendly and courteous. I highly recommend Elena's!

Hands down best Mexican food in Beaumont. I swear my food actually had excellent flavor and wasn't from Sysco food. I know this because it took longer than 5 minutes to get the food to me.

Food has always been good. Service is amazing. Everyone seems to like their job, and it shows. Atmosphere is great, a lot of Latin flair, good music. Not one thing I would complain about. Prices are good.

Huge parking lot for wonderful Mexican food. The taste was great, the atmosphere was good. You get free chips and salsa (a bit spicy) when you first sit down. The prices were fair, the service was excellent. There are many options, can't wait to try more items!

We went for lunch and found the parking lot was packed!! Stepped in to a very busy restaurant but were greeted and seated immediately. The person that seated us took our drink order, left menus and was back before we had a good chance to read the entire menu. In the meantime, another lady dropped off chips and salsa. We ordered the fajitas for two -on the menu it was 40 and the server said she would bring us the lunch portion and it would be plenty. It was HUGE and was 22 I think. We ate until our bellies were full and took home enough that we had fajitas for dinner that night as well…and STILL had food left! The food came out within 15 mins of us being in the building. The service was excellent and the food is some of the best Mexican food we’ve ever had. The flavor was amazing of the steak and the chicken and the beans/soup was out of this world good!! The margaritas were a bit sweet for my taste but nice and strong. I don’t think I’ve had food IN Mexico this good! We will absolutely be back!! EVERY restaurant in the country needs to be trained by this management!! The speed for a lunch time rush was impressive and the food was top notch! We did see that they will be closed I think on Monday due to a death in the family. Our thoughts and prayers are with them all.

The best Mexican restaurant in town!! I love the flavor of their beef fajitas. The salsa is spicy and oh-so delightful. My go-to dishes are the fajitas, beef quesadillas, cheese enchiladas, and fajita burrito. Can’t forget the delicious margaritas!!! I can eat the chips and salsa all day & night. Good sized portions, reasonable prices, fast & amicable service, and consistent, high quality food. They’ve been satisfying residents of Beaumont since Southwestern Bell was providing phone service. If you haven’t eaten here, then you must not live in Beaumont, or you have an aversion to good Mexican food.

Top notch service, food and atmosphere. I suggest you ask for the churros....best I've ever had! Hot sauce will definitely increase bar sales! LOL
