Good for the island; OK for TexMex in general 7/2/2005

Coming from Austin and San Antonio, it's difficult for Galveston Mexican restaurants to measure up, but The Original gives it the old college try. The menu is pretty standard, and overpriced for the portions that are presented. However, it's relative proximity to UTMB and the cruise chips makes it a good lunch choice.
