Tencha's Lunch Box - Mexican restaurant in Brownfield - 120 S 5th St A, USA

This place is a local hidden gem across from the Terry County Courthouse. The food has been delicious from the stacked enchiladas, quesadillas, to the tacos. Yes, you do have to pay for the chips and salsa. I suggest getting queso on the side to go with the chips because sometimes the salsa is hot, hot. I ding this place one star because of limited hours of operation. It seems they close way earlier than their posted hours, like on a recent visit they locked the door behind us as we were sitting down at about 1:15 pm. The waitstaff is professional, not friendly. I would rather have professional over friendly in such a small restaurant, especially if it means my order is always correct. Cannot go wrong with this place. Hopefully, you will find it open.

Very sweet workers/owner. Food was very good.. traveling from East TN where I'm used to a different style of Mexican (less Tex-Mex) so it was a bit more spicy for my basic white girl self but very good. Decorations were really just local pictures but that had small town charm and I enjoyed it. Very clean.

Best service at a restaurant I've had in a long time. Started with a warm welcome and complimentary queso when he learned we were on a long road trip. Food cake out super fast and was really good.

The waitress had a rude attitude,didn't even tell about we have to pay for chips. The food wasn't as good as they say it is. It was my first and last time going there so I don't recommend it.

Please update your hours online. We love Tenchas and try to eat here every time we come to town. This is Saturday morning, online hours say open until 1130am. We go in about 1105am and are told Tenchas closed at 11am even though an older woman said 1130 and then the younger one said 11am. Was so looking forward to eating here after almost two hour drive. Very disappointing when hours and "stories" do not match what it says online.

Our server was very hateful and if it was not for David and the other staff I would have never returned

Unbelievably good Thursday special! Great service and super clean! What a gem. I would definitely go back!

Got the recommendation from Coach Flores and this will be my new breakfast stop while coming through. Burrito was big, full of flavor, and just enough to hold me over. Very good service!! We will definitely be coming here on our travel through.
