So beautiful and I can so relate to her tragedy. I'm in that same boat, but with the passing of my son. He was 17. Please thank Irma for sharing.
This story pulled some strings but in a really good way. Probably one of the best self starter restaurant stories I've ever heard of.
a strong woman and a great kitchen - she has my respect for going through all her pain and still creating this beautiful place
Aye Senora Irma you brought tears to my eyes with your testimony & brought encouragement to mi corazon.
🇲🇽Mucha Gracias🇲🇽
Very uplifting story, happy to see that she was able to persevere despite the tragedy. May God continue to bless her.
What a remarkable lassy.
May the Lord bless her with health and success.
How can 14 people dislike this person having the strength to pick herself up and continue being strong and confident? I loved this episode. No wonder the world is so upside now.
Right?
Must be all liberals they don’t like to see people s standing on their own two feet
I see that number has climbed to 26 worthless human beings!
david crowder probably both liberals and hardcore racist trump supporters
Irma is a strong women!! god bless her.
Omg what a great woman. Much Respect ✊👏🏼👍
Beautiful story ..Thank you and Irma for sharing it....maybe one day I can visit with my family and enjoy her food and company...
Guy Vincent i went with my gf to visit went to this place absolutely amazing get the mole 🙏🏻🔥
I've experienced Irma, her boys and the staff for many years. They are as genuine as this video portrays. Great food...especially their lemonade!
I listened and watched the video, even I am 10,000 km away from you, imbued with respect for this worthy woman, God grant her health and long years, probably I was not destined to come to her cafe and taste her excellent cuisine, but I wish her well-being .. hello from Siberia
Another unbelievable story..very sad but uplifting..bless her!💝
This place is a true Houston staple. I met Irma when I lived nextdoor to her son and he invited me to his Mother's restaurant. He now manages the other downtown grille location and Miss Irma still runs her restaurant. If you have never been there, you are really missing out! You can taste the love in everything she serves!!!
This place was on our list of food places to eat at on our road trip through the states. We are Canadian up in Manitoba and even we've heard of this place. Im hoping after this Covid crap we still get the chance to.
What a beautiful human being! A true mom, God bless you!
I've got to look her up when I'm in my home state......n eat there......my name is Irma too....... awesome story....... greetings everyone from Asheville NC
Very moving ; Irma is very spirited.
Sad story but a woman with a beautiful soul that touches many
THANK YOU *TEXAS COUNTRY REPORTER!!!
God bless. Stopping by when I get to Houston.
There's heart put into her amazing establishment and shows once you enter the door and continues until you exit which is not soon after you enter. You can't leave.
The food looks amazing.
God bless you Irma!
I want those fajitas! Yum!!! With a margarita, please. 😋😋😋. How wonderful!
RIP Luis...
Irma mucho bendiciones para ti mi amore muchas gracias 🙏🙏👏👏❤💞
What a Beautiful Soul she has
Interesting. No menus. Next to Minute Maid Park. Obviously a lot of business. How is it possible? You would have to train waiters differently, or so I would imagine. I know this woman, who memorizes every tables' order, in the grill/bar at this hotel in Amsterdam. You can't work there if you cannot remember dozens of orders, because I don't think they let you write orders down. Been there maybe 80 times. Never seen anyone write anything down. There was this Scottish dude, who was really nice, friendly, very approachable, but he had problems remembering. He didn't last too long. So. If you take away the menus, and the place is packed, you would have to train people who are maybe not like super advanced or at home in restaurants, but very much into THAT restaurant and that would mean Irma. That dude said that he would be eating there at least once a week, for the rest of his life. That's loyalty. Jeez.
Wonderful abuelita. God bless her heart.
Looks so good.
GOD BLESS IRMA AND HEY FAMILY. I'D LOVE TO VISIT HER HOME AND TRY HER FOOD
" problem til I die... " the loyalty
Good food and guests
Awesome🌎
Bless your heart sweet lady. You are the people of Texas.

Why does the narrator talk sooooooooo slooooooooow?
American English is like that. I often speed up videos to 1.25x! And I’m born and raised here! First generation though.
lovebaja
Because it's Texas
What’s wrong with that?
that lady is a saint I meant she is a wonderful human being a wonderful lady I'm sorry about her husband I like to find the people that didn't kill her husband and her food looks excellent
❤️❤️❤️
looks very yummy ! greetings from germany 🇩🇪👍🏻🇺🇸
Sounds good! I only hope they'll all doing okay after Hurricane Harvey.....
My god from Baylor Med to being mugged and murdered.
lol , this is the US , are you new on earth ?.. Welcome .
I am going to fly to Houston just to eat here.
Strong.
how do they get some of these people to be the reporter...they could do better
"Yummy 😋💭"..
Need to do some Texas reporting on gyms and test out their exercise equipment
Mexicans eat at a real Mexican restaurant , just sayin" meant good.
Either go with a lot of money or expect to pay a lot or ask for the price of everything !!!
Name's the Sonny, wish you were here the west coast. S K💗😎😎🔧🔩
Omg stop...just stop...yum...lol
Bro, these country reporter videos are so wholesome. I'm glad there's people like this in the world. And I'm glad these videos are made.
Wow, this is an inspiration to me. I lost my Wife of 40 years on Feb 2nd 2021 and have been going downhill, don't think I will open a restaurant but this gives me hope !! Props to this woman because I know the pain she went thru...
I thought I was just watching a food video, and now I'm sitting there with a tear in my eye. But thanks, what a great story of strong lady!
THANK YOU *TEXAS COUNTRY REPORTER!!!
I really needed to hear her story.
God Bless her and her Resturant
The TCR is head and shoulders above the Texas Bucket List, because the stories are more about the subjects and less about the presenters.
What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger
May God continue to BLESS this beautiful woman and her family. ~
I had lunch at Irma's last year. It was truly amazing. It really was fresh food. The mole and guacamole were amazing.
People....just in case you're wondering if you have not been there, this is true/authentic tex-mex food. Unlike taco bell, taco cabana, or other "voted best Mexican" eateries in Austin or Dallas.
A truly uplifting story about Irma. Not only has she battled tragedy and heartache, but pulling herself up and being able to make a success of her life, is truly an amazing achievement. Much respect to this amazing lady.
I live in Houston tx and I'll be visiting that place just to hug that admirable,strong,sweet and beautiful woman...and of course,the food looks delicious too.
That lemonade is fantastic! I've been there, as you can guess. It's WONDERFUL.
A very Sad but at the same time a Beautiful Story. Best Wishes to her, She deserves to survive and find some Happiness in Her Life.
Joseph Kain Amen!
Her story represents son many people. She is a true hero, not like the ones you see on social media showing their athletic bodies and fancy cars. A true hero is someone who falls and has the strength to get back up. That guacamole looks amazing BTW
I love, love finding these out the way places when I'm traveling! There just so hard to find when on the road. Wonderful videos like yours just has to be a boon for there worthwhile businesses.
sadly closed due to covid only after a month after it aired :(
@Bob Jones as DEAD as most Irma's employees (corona) :(
Love texas
I visited Irma's years ago in Juarez. Seems the menu has changed.
Irma be smoking some Gonzales.
Viva la comida mexicana
Oh how I love you TCR! And I love you Irma!! You are a magnificent inspiration. Gracias!
Qanon
A true inspiration. Vaya con Dios!
Ah remember watching Four Country Reporter 45 years ago with the same host!
Was this the business that BLM rioters targeted because they called her an "Uncle Tom"? Have they not had enough lazy jobless Marxists attacking them? It is as if they hate hard workers who pulled themselves up by their bootstraps.
Another Place To Visit 🌞 🙏 🇺🇸 👍
Good food, however they don't provide a menu with prices. Be prepared for a high dollar bill at the end.
I've watched 10 plus videos I definitely got to come to Texas
BEAUTIFUL STORY IRMA, BEAUTIFUL LIFE MI AMOR TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF AND GOD BLESS YOUR HUSBAND
I have eaten at Irmas......delicious....super quick service.
I’m sure those people responsible for your husbands murder were here illegally.
The reviews say the food is good, but be sitting down or have a hand on your wallet when you get the bill.
I was thinking the same thing; especially when she said there is not a menu. No menu + no prices listed = proprietor charges what they want!
So what's the typical price for 2 people???
Looks delicious, thanks for sharing.
Thumbnail looks like he is doing a bump off of a key 😂
Beautiful lady!! 💗
Added to my bucket list ..
Wow that's one hell of a woman.
Texas gluttony !
I don’t recommend this restaurant at all. Too expensive and not very good food. For 6 people we paid over three hundred dollars. Thumb down.
It's not just about the food. You just don't get it.
Bravo 👏
