Romie’s, lunch done right near downtown

I have discovered another delicious Mexican dining establishment. As I walked in the door with my lunch group, I laughed because I think I am about the last person in Midland to find it. In business for 11 years, Romie’s Mexican Restaurante, located at 701 S. Marienfeld St., is open 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Friday.
With a parking lot quickly filling up and people coming through the door, a very friendly waitress promptly seated us and drink orders were taken. Mexican music drifted over the speakers and traditional Mexican decor covered the walls.
As we looked at the menu, we saw that Romie’s offers daily specials at a very reasonable price. For example, on Monday the special is a regular dinner consisting of a cheese enchilada and a ground beef taco. Tuesday features the Vallita (two cheese, ground beef or shredded chicken enchiladas) and Wednesday offers fajitas. Each special is only $6.99 a plate.
If you are extra hungry and would like an appetizer, Romie’s offers chile con queso, guacamole, stuffed jalapenos and flautitas, just to name a few. The restaurant also features several versions of nachos, including a choice of chicken or beef fajita. The hot sauce is delicious when combined with the chips that are placed on the table as you order.
