Mi Familia

Mi Familia

Finally a good Mexican food restaurant in Stephenville. For years now we have had the same little family run Mexican places out here in Stephenville. Some of them good and some of them not. Still it is good to finally have a place that is familiar and also great food.

Mi Familia just opened a few months ago and I have been there twice now. Both times I was very pleased. The restaurant is big and there is plenty of space to move and eat. When you sit down you are greeted with a menu and chips and hot sauce.

The last time I eat here I ordered the fajita plate for two. Let me tell you I think it may have been the best fajitas I have ever had. They were so juicy and tender and full of flavor. We ordered the combination (chicken and beef) they were delivered sizzling hot (the best way to eat fajitas). Needless to say we finished them all up and there was plenty for my husband and I. I know I was stuffed after I got done. There was no need to take anything home since we finished everything.

Our server was great, he had to wait on a table of 8 and he did a great job separating out tickets and being helpful to our needs. This restaurant is great because it allows for a feeling of being in Fort Worth with out the drive. The food is good and you don’t feel like you are eating at the same place over and over and over just with a different name.

La Familia

La Familia

It is with great pleasure we dined at La Familia. The restaurant moved into a new location not far from downtown Fort Worth and the Cultural District. Family-friendly and a friendly family member greets you at the door with a smile and a warm handshake.

This is handmade fresh food. They don't own a can opener and don't use hamburger meat in their dishes. Al runs a tight ship and a well organized kitchen. Get there too late and Al may have run out of one thing or another. The menu is long featuring beef and chicken but don't miss the fish and shrimp dishes.

Beware of the large portions. We ordered one meal each with a starter and took home enough for another dinner. I love the flaming cheese starter made at your table. The fajitas include all the standard fixings. I'm convinced the only way you can manage a dessert is to start with one.

The soups are fresh and very tasty especially the chicken soup. The salsa is made fresh all day long and differs vastly from what comes out of a jar. Al doesn't mistake searing hot spices for a quality salsa. All the vegetables are fresh. Also, on each table is a bowl of Mexican style pickles: good and not too hot. Fresh chips come to your table instantly, iced tea comes in large glasses, and they do love children of all ages.

I love the decor, which is a complete surprise as the location is in a shopping center. The walls are beautifully painted and are covered in photos of the family and also Texas history, the lighting is low and calming and the ceiling is an amazing work of modern metal art. Some very interesting antiques hang on the walls and there is coloring paper for little children to help pass the time waiting for the food.

Come and enjoy! You will be welcome!
