Delicias Restaurant

Tried the huevos rancheros. Just the right amount of after burn in the sauce. Loved it. Going back for more.

This place was way authentic! About burnt my tongue off my face, but it was delicious. Friday around 6:30pm, we were delighted to encounter the famed mariachi band which added immeasurably to our experience! Definitely, check it out!

I would never recommend this place to anyone. 4 of us went and none of us liked it at all. I had the shrimp cocktail and the shrimp was old and bad. It physically made me ill. My son had the shrimp tampinique (sp) and was violently ill. The Chile Verde was bland and my other son only ate his rice and beans and 1 bite of his taco. He said it was stale and disgusting. We will never go back!

Absolutely love this place! This is authentic homemade Mexican food! The waitstaff is friendly and bilingual! They do get packed at lunch and you may have a short wait for a table but it is well worth it! I recommend their Beef Caldo. It’s a Mexican soup and is super yummy!

Went here on a Wednesday afternoon for lunch and it was delicious! The queso is excellent! The salsa is excellent! The food is excellent! I am only giving 4 stars because our server was rather incompetent and disappeared for a while letting our drinks go empty. Great food for the price.

Food was terrible, not hot and not authentic. Way overpriced. Service and atmosphere were severely lacking.

love the food here. it’s so tasty, the service is great, the place is unpretentious and it’s all about the food!!!
you have to go and try it out for yourself. Their Guela soup is FANTASTIC!
Their barbacoa is really tasty as well. this place is a gem

Stopped here around 12:30 on a Tuesday and it was packed! About a 20 minutes wait. Even by the time we left, after 1, there was still a wait. Food was excellent! They have a variety of soups and we’re already put of the beef soup, so I had the chicken. The large was enormous and came with huge vegetable pieces and full pieces of chicken, the leg, the wing, etc. The salsa was excellent and the staff fast and friendly. Go early and expect a short wait. Worth it, though. Reasonably priced for the area too.

Thought the meal was over priced for the quality of the food. Rice and beans had no flavor. My taco fritos were good, my wife’s cheese enchiladas with red sauce were terrible. The sauce was slightly spicy and that is all it had going for it, there was no other flavor to it. My kids chicken strips and fries where both very good though. Wait staff was adequate but also in unimpressive.

Authentic and wonderful… one of my favorites.

Really like this place… been here twice now. I like the atmosphere (it’s a cute little house with a big parking lot) albeit odd sometimes to eat in a sparsely decorated converted back bedroom in very close quarters to your dining neighbors… as a Californian I have grown quite fond of my personal space bubble, but close quarters in West Texas is rarely if ever uncomfortable because the people are so darn friendly. The couple at the table next to us helped us order our lunch!
The place is always packed… A large portion of the lunch staff do not speak English well and a smaller portion seemed to understand it (we had 4 servers, and only 1 was flawlessly fluent.) HOWEVER, considering we were at an authentic Mexican restaurant in search of authentic food, the language barrier is reassuring instead of discouraging. And our order got to us quickly & correctly. I had the ground beef tacos — good — but not Rosa’s good. Hubby got the Mexican Plate at the recommendation of server #3, which he really enjoyed. You get chips & salsa, which is too spicy for my palate, but then I can’t handle much… probably why NO Mexican restaurant will ever live up to the all powerful Rosa’s in my eyes. The queso at Delicia’s is to die for however, white cheese dip with just the right kick to it. It’s downtown so good for a business lunch or dinner before a show at the Ector. Prices aren’t bad either… salsa, chips, queso, 2 lunches & 2 drinks for $ 20. Viva la Delicias!

Great service and good food. Gets a big crowd at lunch so be prepared. Their caldo is the best.

This place is hands down amazing. Best authentic mexican food in Odessa. Friendly service and décor that reminds you of your abuela’s house. Awesome.

This was my first Tex-​Mex place and I really enjoyed it. They are always busy and especially famous for their soups. If you are in Odessa, give it a try.

Delicias is just plain delicious. Great authentic Tex Mex. I havent been back to Odessa for a while, but this is a great place. How do you know if you found it? You’ve arrived at a house with a filled parking lot. They have the best caldo out of any restaurant I have ever been to– comfort food at its finest. You can’t go wrong with any of their lunch specials. My favorite dish besides the caldo is the asado (it reminds me of the one I get at home). The portions are large and it is very cheap for the amount of food you get. You will notice laborers who need high caloric meals coming and going from Delicias. Its great food. It will satisfy your Tex-​Mex craving. People of Odessa don’t realize what a gem this place is– (I know I didnt until we moved to Eastern Texas).
