"Stopped by this place on our way to Fredericksburg. Great service. We just wanted a little snack. Got the fajita nachos and a side of their white queso. Wow! Spicy and very tasty. Wait staff was great and we enjoyed our lunch. Make it a point to stop by El Jardin in Hamilton, Tx"

"8:00 o'clock Saturday night, May 31st. The restaurant closes at eight (8). My wife and I were really hungry and we opened their door and asked if we were too late. They welcomed us in stating no problem. Their fajitas were extraordinary as was the service. There cook came out to make certain the meal met our expectations. We would highly recommend this restaurant."

- Donald M.

"The food was pretty good. The fajita beef on my nachos was amazing (better than Lupe Tortilla's in Houston) but the chili con queso was too bland and thin for me (that might be the way they like it in that part of Texas though). Our waiter was very helpful, friendly, quick to notice when a refill was needed, and fun to talk to. I'll give it four stars for the fajita beef and service, but won't recommend the queso."
