    All their food is amazing, posole, breakfast, lunch, their seafood, their fajitas, all of it. I should be a sponsor I love this place so much lol!! But this salad, y'all, this salad is bomb delicious!!!!! You ALWAYS get chips and salsa, staple for a Mexican restaurant. Everyone is always nice and their margaritas are also pretty good!!!

    Lengua on corn
    Katie G.

    Not a bad place for happy hour. It's right up the street from us. My son liked the beef tacos, I ordered the lengua on corn. I've had better, it was kinda oily. I would try some other meats to see how they are. The sauce they give you for the tacos is very good! Nice and spicy. The service was good.

    1 breakfast taco( bacon, egg and cheese)  3 mini tacos( chicken and pork)

    Ran across this place last night while buying gas. I Yelped the location and the reviews were pretty good. Went today for brunch and it was delicious!!! They had some crazy taco special to my pleasant surprise.

    Been out of town for a few days without internet so catching up on some reviews. I have been wanting to come here ever since it opened close to my home. I happened to stop by the gas station the restaurant is connected to and noticed a sign advertising $0.75 mini tacos. I thought this would be a great opportunity to taste some of the flavors at a great price. They have two options for the mini tacos, chicken and pastor I believe. I ordered three tacos to go. The restaurant has a nice set up with a bar on one side of the room. Even though there were only a few customers in the restaurant, there were some dirty glasses sitting out on the tables that hadn't been cleaned up. And they weren't cleaned up when I had received my food and left 15 minutes later. That was kind of a turn-off. The staff was friendly and welcoming. One of them had met me at the door and took my order. I thought the timing was a little bit slow. I felt like they were advertising these tacos at a discount and made only two options available so they could push dozens of these out the door as quickly as possible. However, my three tacos probably took 15 minutes. I really couldn't find anything unique about these tacos or something that really struck me. They seemed like standard tacos you could find at any taco stand. And they really are mini - really, really mini. They were smaller than the palm of my hand. I had three of them and didn't feel like I had eaten anything. This was probably a two-star experience, but I gave it three stars for the price. I will probably try this place one more time and order something off the main menu before I completely write this restaurant off. Thanks!

    It's a good place to go for Mexican food. My favorite is the $2.50 tacos. They're super spicy, but super good!

    Good service I'm currently at the spot now and my mom had the quail and she absolutely loved it for 10 dollars and 2 sides

    One of the best thing about this restaurant is the service ! Jocelyn (I spelled the name wrong),…read moretook great care of us. She was very nice and attentive. This place has one of the best drinks, both of my our drinks was delicious . I'd come back here just for the drinks alone. The food wasn't too bad. It's very different compared to your average Tex/mex restaurant. *Be advised - add your name to waitlist on Fri/Saturday dinner bc their will be a 30min-1hr wait*

    We had one of the worst dining experiences ever at Ambriza La Centerra. After living in Houston for…read more15 years and dining all over the city, this was by far the most disappointing restaurant experience we've had. What made it even more frustrating is that we've been to the Cypress location many times, and every single visit there has been exceptional -- great food, great service, and consistently enjoyable. Unfortunately, the La Centerra location was the complete opposite. We waited over an hour for our food, only to receive the wrong appetizer. The fajita plate arrived cold and without rice, beans, or tortillas. We sent both dishes back. The replacement appetizer -- ceviche tostadas -- finally arrived, but it was overloaded with lemon to the point of being unbearably sour. Meanwhile, there were still no tortillas, rice, or beans in sight. No drink refills, no updates, and barely any service during the entire wait. After another long stretch of waiting, we finally asked the server what was happening, only for her to return and tell us the kitchen was closing and they no longer had tortillas, rice, or beans available. At that point, after nearly 1.5 hours, we walked out with nothing but a to-go box of fajita meat. To the manager's credit, they removed the appetizer and fajita charges from the bill, but the experience itself left such a bad taste that it completely overshadowed the gesture. Extremely disappointing, especially compared to the excellent standards we've experienced at the Cypress location. Sadly, we will not be returning to this location.
