    AMAZING food and great customer service!! This is the most authentic Mexican food El Paso has. Everyone raves about the L&J's, but once you eat Dona Lupe there is no going back. Not to mention their prices are AMAZING!! 1/2 of what you'd be paying at any other Mexican restaurant. Don't forget to try their iced tea!!!!

    Excellent service, excellent food! We had Chicken Mole Enchilada plate, and Gorditas plate. The best I have had in a very long time!! Some places the shredded chicken in chicken mole enchiladas tastes kind of funny and you can tell the process of preparing them was just a job. Here you can feel the love through the food! This is my first time here and when I return to El Paso I will definitely be back!

    Service is great. Loved the green salsa and chip. Had the steak tacos which were good but not great. L&J's steak tacos are so much better at similar price. The tacos at Dona Lupe were served plain with only lettuce, sour cream, and avocado. I did have a problem with the beans and rice. They looked and tasted days old. They were not freshly made. Food was okay, but there are places with much better food. Rather go there.

    Is it sad to say that the reason this place has a 4.5 review is because these people who go here don't know true taste. My first time here and Im never going back. Not worth the money, the food had no seasoning at all and the menudo taste like they didn't wash it right let alone boil it properly. The steak guisada is a disgrace to the guisada name and should be taken off the menu. As a cook myself I'm surprised this restaurant is still kicking. Do not recommend.

    After reading many reviews I decided to try it out. I ordered the manchaca play with a small bowl of menudo. There was little to no seasoning on any of the food aside from it's natural taste The menudo was way too oily with an interesting flavor. I was pretty disappointed with what I've heard. Maybe it was just my dish but my girlfriend had the same issue. There was no salt in the steak guisada dish. If I wanted my own seasonings, I would've just cooked at home instead of wasting my money at this location. Wouldn't recommend.

    Not easy to find a jewel like that. Very small business but excellent in taste. I've had a breakfast ranchero made of roasted onion medium size steak and beans / potatoes with egg. Taste was flawless. The shop itself is in mexican style with painting etc on the wall. Stuff very nice. I can recommend it for a fast good breakfast for small money
