Well, I wanted mexican food. As we were driving down Boca Chica I've always seen this place but never stopped. It's the shack looking place next to Lin's FYI. Anyways, since it's been open since I can remember, I told my partner in crime to check it out. We stopped and wondering if the fucking place was open. It looked dead, no typical music, and I saw jackshit of life. In my head I was thinking it was cause it was late, lets try it out. I sit down and the hag of a waitress asks what we are drinking. I notice there was no refills on anything. NOT EVEN FUCKING TEA. WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT? SERIOUSLY? ON TEA?! YOU CHEAP FUCKS IT'S WATER AND A GOD DAMN POWDER [well to me it is]. I order a Dr. Pepper and review the menu. This lamenated, badly photoshopped menu had little items...yet the pics on the wall show amazing looking tortas and these flautas. The menus has typical items. Beans, tortas, tacos, nachos, and what caught my eyes...Now, I ask for these amazing looking flautas and wait a reasonable amount of time for them to arrive. As I am trying not to finish my Dr. Pepper, I notice we have been there for a good while and not another person come in. Our food comes and these what seemed to be flautas made of playdoh show up on this plate that looks like it was found in some shitty store downtown. I end up trying to be optomistic on this sorta thing. This looks nothing like the pic. Now, I know you never get anything looking like the pictures you see on tv or menus but this was way off. Basically, I ordered from the picture was a ferrari and I ended up getting a moped. I bit into these crispy tortillas and taste the delicious, nourishing, delightful...tortilla. Wait, what!? Where the chicken? I take another bite wondering to myself if they just didn's spread it out correctly. No chicken taste on the 3rd bite...So I open one of these "flautas" and see that there is chicken..in some parts. Alright, so the flautas suck. NO refills. THE SALSA! MAYBE ATLEAST THAT WILL TASTE GOOD. negative. NOPE. Bland tomato soupy crap with no spices. This place is just striking out. Now, I always finish my meals no matter how bad it is. I get up to pay and now I order 2 orders of flauta. 6 bucks a plate. 2 Dr. Peppers come out to 4 bucks. Now these prices are rounded off and if you add that up...6+6+4+TAX is maybe like 18, 19 bucks. The fucking dude charges me 22 bucks. I ask if tip is included and he says, "No". The fuck? How does this add up? I'm to pissed to give a shit so I pay, don't leave a tip, and I return to my seat. I sip the last of my soda and notice I'm sitting next to the neon open sign. I proceed to turn this light off and leave.

I'm not even going to rate this place. Taqueria Lilia gets a huge Thumbs Down. It even gets the "nah uh" award. NOONE HAS EVER GOTTEN A "NAH UH"
