I live in burleson and have been in search of an authentic Mexican restaurant that actually has good flavor for years! I’m sorry Burleson but someone has to say it, Rosa’s cafe is NOT authentic Mexican food and tastes blah!!! as what you should expect from a franchise chain! CW’s is by far the ABSOLUTE BEST you will find in a 25 miles radius. From the moment you walk in the door and are hit with the fantastic aroma and then greeted by an outstanding staff you know you are in the right place. My family each ordered something different from the menu so we can try a little of everything. I’m not lying when I say everything and I mean everything was OUTSTANDING!!! This is our new place to be, and I highly encourage everyone to visit this place. I guarantee you, you will not be disappointed!! And then you can come back to this review and give it a thumbs up! Thank you to the staff, the cooks, and the owner for making this restaurant what it is. You got a customer for life!

Saw this place on Restaurant Impossible and drove over an hour to try it. As of now, the name on the outside and on all social media still says “Fun Time Cafe” but the interior and the menus say “CW’s.” You walk in to a wall commemorating Robert Irvine’s time with them. And the decor throughout looks bright, clean, and colorful. We ordered the Patty Melt Burrito and the Pork Ribs. Both tasted good and were cooked well, but the ribs were easily the star of the show! Wow! They fell off the bone and were bursting with flavor. Mixed with the pineapple slaw, it was even better. Also, the staff was SUPER kind and friendly. They’ll make you like coming just in their demeanor. You can tell they take pride in their work. It was a fun, worthwhile trip with my daughter! Cool experience.

Good food and customer service! The food was served hot and was very tasty. The owner is very nice and puts a lot of thought into his restaurant. I had the chicken fried chicken and mashed potatoes. I was very satisfied! They also have Tex-Mex options that are good. I had a burrito one visit and it was great as well!

This place was a diamond in the rough for sure. A quick Google search for highly rated Mexican food restaurants pulled this baby up. It was a little further out of our way than we wanted to travel, but oh boy was it worth the trip. It didn't look like much on the outside. We actually considered not going in. My family and I are happy we did. It was nice, clean, and extremely helpful staff. The food came out quickly and did not disappoint our taste buds. The Food was exceptional, and the owner made his rounds to visit the patrons to hear our satisfaction. Don't worry, those eaters in your group that don't like tex mex are sure to find other more "Tex" menu options like burgers chicken fried chicken etc. Absolutely Recommend !

The wife and I had lunch at CW's on Sunday after our hunting trip, and everything was great. The wife had Street Corn Quesadilla's (10.40) and I had the Beef Enchilada Plate (three enchiladas for 11.44). They do have the Beef Enchilada's on the Daily Special part of the menu for 8 (two enchilada's) but I was in the mood for three. And those enchilada's are big, I could hardly finish the three. The owner, Wayne, also stopped by the booth and we spent some time talking and traded hunting stories. It's good to see an owner who actually visits with the customers to make sure they are satisfied. If you have a big appetite and love beef enchilada's try CW's. They also have a good looking chicken fried steak that I will try on our next visit. The food was great, customer service was great, and the prices are reasonable and portion are large. We will be back.

This place has such a variety of food, so far everything has been exceptional! I would have to say though, they have the BEST patty melt ever! Love their special yummy sauce too. The service is amazing here. Everyone is so nice and make you feel so welcomed you want to become a regular.

I have been eating at this place for 9 plus years. Wayne and Carmen have served great food back to the first day I stopped by to eat. Great people, great service, and great food......that sums it up.
