I've been all around the Valley and South Texas brush country but never been through the Hebbronville or Zapata areas at eating time. Figured the outdoors board would know the best places. I'd appreciate any recommendations.

El paraiso in zapata is my favorite get fat place. The chicken fried steak with gravy and cheese, and an enchilada. The Paraiso Special is what it was called. Haven't been in a few years but hopefully it's still great.
We ate at Lala's nearly every weekend when I had my lease down there. Great food.Deerdude said:
Back in the day, El Paraso in Zapata was the oilfield/rancher go to. These days her children run it and a few others. El Rincon de Los Angeles is Paraso operator daughter and the best of them.
Red tails is another good one with Cajun food.
Never rule out Lala's in Mirando City for good Mexican food. My great grandfather dined there, and my grandson dined there, and every generation in between.
In Hebbronville is Franks still there? Was the go to back in the day as well.
I ate at Lala's two weeks ago and can confirm that the puffy tacos are still excellent!Deerdude said:

Any of you ever stopped/eaten at Gonzalitos? Its a feed store that also sells gas and a few other things but I've heard good things about their BBQ.
Pretty much out in the middle of nowhere, officially listed as Alice, TX but straight south of San Diego.
They're on FB but I don't see a website.
