The Texas Bucket List - Lucy's in El Paso

[@tlhome7565]

I live i Germany now, But El Paso/Fabens will always be in my heart!! Lucy's and Chico's forever!!

[@richtorres5115]

I’m in NYC and I’m a PROUD El Pasoan! El Paso has what other cities only dream of: friendly people, great weather and a low cost of living . VIVA El Paso!! I miss you❤️

Just South of Executive Center Blvd & N. Mesa Intersection, same building as Kings X Bar. Wow, you'd think I've been there once or twice. lol btw, Great Iced Tea at Lucy's *****

[@jefffawcett1626]

Great piece! El Paso is one fabulous city! Amazing weather, incredible food and warm, friendly people. I lived there for 8 years and miss it terribly. Lucy's is a stalwart and was definitely our 'go to' place for lunch. A must see restaurant (among many) if you find yourself lucky enough to be visiting!

[@karenlyn8592]

Agree, born and raised in El Paso, living here again after leaving numerous times to live in N.M, CA, Micronesia, and NJ. I love the food, people, low cost of living, amazing smell of the air after a rain, Franklin Mountains, Hueco Tanks, and living in a corner of Texas where Mexico and New Mexico are all within a 20 to 30 minute drive.

[@JavierSalcido-k8p]

Weather sucks balls. Good is ok. Don’t over exaggerate.

[@amichayeisner4052]

Just wanted to let you know that due to this video, I stopped at Lucy's and had the same tacos you did. I was really waiting for the time I pass through El Paso after I have seen this video and these were the best tacos I ever had. I love your channel, I think it's a must for every foodie in Texas! I will recommend my friends on FB to follow you.

@@AnimeBronx Texas in general, yeah. Abbott's covid policies are a disaster, but El Paso's numbers are much better. They learned the hard way when they were covid ground zero late last year. Everyone wears masks there, and the vaccination rate is above 75%. El Paso has a sense of community responsibility and concern for the greater good, and the residents care about each other instead of just their own freedumb. That's one of many reasons I'm moving there from rural east Texas next month. That, and the amazing weather and food. Lucy's is definitely high on my list!

[@RubenGarcia-ze7oz]

@@AnimeBronx well 1st of all this restaurant is from southwest Texas which in reality we are closer to two different states and to their cities than the closest city in Texas and second of all the covid problem here is one of the lowest if not the lowest compared to big cities in Texas...and 3rd if you've never been to El Paso TX what makes you an expert on the Texas conversation 😂 but don't you worry there's still hope for you I believe in you mijito 😂😂

[@ricardotrujillo5106]

They look good. With out offending, I stay in my house; been married with my wife for 39 years and she cooks great. We get out not very often and most of the time get disappointed with what they call “Mexican food”. Can’t say anything wrong about this place, will go definitely next time and taste it. About machaca, for 39 years have had the best at home. We both, my wife and I, are Mexican born and raised, living in the states since 1985. At the present live in El Paso, Tx. Great place to live. God bless the 915 and around places, God bless the Great USA, amén.

[@madtonesbr]

Native El Pasoan here. With all the city's growth there's a TON of new spots, and like any city, not all of them will be good. Some are too trendy, some are lazy and depend on instagram hype or a good location and decor. A dependable way to knw what's good really good places are the ones that have been around for decades and which ones the community rallies around like Jalisco Cafe, even if most of the city doesn't know about them. Lucy's definitely fits!

[@bipolarpurpleofficial9678]

Proud to be from El Paso 💜💜

[@30Allaboutme]

The Lepe family is amazing. Know several of them personally. Went to school with Josh. Hi Josh!!! Worked at Kings X. Just amazing dives and owners on both ends. Also thank you Bucket List for stopping by Rosas Cantina years ago. I was working there at that time when you did an episode there as well. EP has amazing food and even better people. Will miss this place and will always be home. El Chuco por Vida

[@roberthijar4793]

I was born and raised in EP, wife too. We have been in San Antonio for 18 years now. Lucy's is an awesome place, the machaca is incredible, tacos Antonia, "no hombe shut up". I miss the Kings X and especially Lucy's but the L & J and Leo's, right up there too. So many places to eat GREAT food. The women in EP, too hot to mention here. If you are driving through, make a point of stopping at Lucy's or the L & J, you will not want to leave. Miss the food for sure.

[@southsider1394]

For you people who live here, you need to go to Adas Mexican restaurant. It's behind the lube and go place on Carolina and Giles in the Lower Valley. The owner's name is Cesar, and he's very friendly and accommodating, and the tacos are crispy with the traditional lettuce, tomato, onion and cheese. Also the chicken enchiladas in green enchilada sauce are fantastic!

[@neohg13blaze89]

I live behind the restaurant on Gallagher

But the weather there once it starts getting dark is something else. It brings back a nostalgic feeling.

[@markenriquez1486]

I know my opinion is biased, but I grew up here and noticed when I was a trucker, the farther I went from El Paso the worse the Mexican food got. By the time you get to New Jersey, you might as well wipe your ass with their version of Mexican food, cuz it's that bad! When I took my father to William Beaumont Army Medical Hospital, 20 something years ago, we ate Mexican food at the canteen on the first floor and it was made by some women who WERE NOT from El Paso. The food was HORRIBLE. El Paso has the best Mexican food, but not the new comers from farther south in Mexico. Their tacos are not crispy, they're floppy and don't have lettuce tomatoes and onions. Just steak meat in a floppy ass shell...BARF!

I think that El Paso Tx has more Mexican restaurants per 1000 people than anywhere else in America. No matter where you are in El Paso, you are never more than half a mile from a Mexican restaurant. And sometimes you will be within one mile of 5 Mexican restaurants. El Paso doesn't have Tex-Mex, It has Mex-Mex (which is even better).
