One of the top go-to spots for mexican food/breakfast tacos in LJ. Always fresh and delicious. We got the original hippo taco and a bean, bacon, cheese taco. I ate my hippo taco too fast before I thought of taking a picture, like usual. They're always so friendly and I will always support Nena's!

Love the new location! A lot easier to access and a lot more space! Service is great and we always get greeted with a smile. Prices are kind of high but they have specials, we try to go on Wednesday for the Mexican plate special. They can get a bit busy for lunch so if you’re in a hurry arrive early.

The food was amazing! Affordable! Good amount of food for the price! Owner is the sweetest person. Home made tortillas Guisada was amazing (which is hard to find). Heard great things about the breakfast here, can’t wait to try. Will 100% be back!!

Very good authentic Mexican tacos. I had the Nena Taco. Very big, it could possibly be split between 2 people. The waitress, Gracie, was sweet and very prompt with service. Food came out hot and fresh. There was a fly buzzing around that was annoying but won't stop me from coming back.

I had a great lunch at Nena’s! I love that they serve breakfast options during lunch, which is perfect for me. I ordered an egg, potato, jalapeño, and cheese omelette, and it was absolutely delicious—flavorful and perfectly cooked. The portion size was generous, and I appreciated getting two sides with it. The staff is friendly, and attentive, which made the experience even more enjoyable.

I enjoyed one of the best breakfast tacos I’ve had in a very long time. I was strolling the square in Lake Jackson and saw a mural of a lady on a building. I’m happy my curiosity was peaked, I stumbled into Nena’s Restaurant and the home of the Hippo! I met Nena’s granddaughter who told me about the restaurant and her grandmother. They’ve been in business for 45 years and the place is owned by Nena’s daughter. I tried the Hippo…it is HUGE and so damn good. All of the flavors worked and the salsa on top had just the right heat and spice. This place serves up great food and the service is great and friendly.
