    Desserts - tiramisu, banana cake, strawberry chiffon
    Heather L.

    This visit was not at the same level as the last. Mainly due to spotty service. Our waiter didn't walk us through the menu until prompted. He disappeared after assuring us he'd check to see if we ordered an appropriate amount after appetizers. He did not. We did not. We had ordered two appetizers but shared the majority of one and quickly realized splitting an entree wouldn't cut it. We needed to add another appetizer or entree - even with dessert. The people delivering & taking plates were less experienced than our previous visit. Dropping entrees off in front of the wrong person and attempting to take plates with food on them. It felt odd and a little disjointed. (Especially since half the tables were empty at the time waiting for the 7:30 reservations I guess - the restaurant did fill back up.) The mole with the duck was the best mole I have had - I typically don't care for mole but this one was complex and paired well with the duck. The birria tacos are still amazing. We tried crab appetizer which was lovely and desserts this time as well - all amazing. My favorite was the tiramisu but, the majority favorite was the banana cake. What was a little less exciting was the pasta. It was just meh - recommend staying with the more traditional Mexican flavored dishes. We will be back again no doubt. I'd much rather support a great restaurant in Spring over a mediocre restaurant in Edo - so again, we will be back.

    This beast's belly is happy. One year later from our last visit and it is great to see that they are still leveling up and knocking our socks off. Came with a group so we could do a lot of family style tasting. Core dishes are still meticulously done to perfection. Presentation is still top notch. The birria tacos, the crispy potatoes, burger, the red fish, ceviche, asada waygu, short rib, and truffle pasta were all fantastic. I think the tacos, the asada and the burger were my favorites. I loved the kick in the ceviche. For dessert we had the tres leches, the banana complex dish, and the strawberry cake thing. All were great, but that tres leches really hit the spot. The atmosphere is very cozy and dark. Good ambiance. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. Last time we met the chef and he was really cool. My main disappointment was that we had to wait outside 20-25 minutes after our reservation time for a table to clear up. I hope they can do something about that because I do want to go again but it was Ramadan and after not eating all day. It was disappointing to wait outside that long. It's good to see that they are jam-packed even after adding tables and they kept the level of quality. It's great to have a place of this quality up in our little suburb. Will continue to spread the word.

    Tagliatelle
    MC F.

    Making my way through the Michelin mentions in the Houston area, I'd been looking forward to this meal for a while. Upon entering, the warm and welcoming greeting from the hostess was genuine and very much appreciated. It's a feeling of arriving at a friend's for a special dinner. From an ambiance standpoint, they do an okay job with their strip center space; however, giving their ceiling (yes, their ceiling) an update would do wonders for the overall aesthetic. This is a detail others in odd strip center locations (Chopnblok, Hidden Omakase) have artfully addressed, and the payoff would be wholly transformative. My server was very friendly and offered a nice overview of the menu. The potato empanadas were an excellent way to start the meal: crispy with a creamy savory center. The shrimp and pork belly appetizer was a tad salty, but the freshness of the romaine cups helped. I was hoping for chunks or nuggets of pork belly and found what appeared to be bacon pieces, which was underwhelming. The octopus and bone marrow appetizer was interesting, but I think they would be better served individually. I loved that the bone marrow could be eaten in delectable bites with a spoon. The octopus tart was unremarkable in flavors but offered nice play on textures. The Tagliatelle was silky, luxurious and decadent. It was definitely a highlight. Also outstanding was the perfectly prepared Wagyu Carne Asada whose accompanying refried beans was an elegant expression. That green sauce was absolute magic and further elevated the already delicious flavors of the dish. I didn't have room for dessert..: maybe next time. There will certainly be a next time :)

    Grilled scallops on the half shell
    Saba E.

    The fall menu is mouthwateringly delicious. From the anything but basic Fall salad (pomegranate seeds, green apples, endives, fig jam) to the Hokkaido scallops on a half shell with a dab of kaluga caviar and closing out our appetizer experience with Spanish octopus, it was an amazing entrance to a meal journey. Followed this with lobster risotto and short rib with fig mole and polenta (and corn tortillas). We ended our journey with a pistachio torte topped with the cutest little fig. Can't wait to try their spring menu!! The ambiance was both inviting yet romantic without being pretentious, which is impressive for a Michellin recognized restaurant. Our sever was kind, helpful, honest with his opinions of dishes, and very understanding of our dietary preferences. This is out in the burbs, so it's a trek for your ITL girl but worth the James Beard meal.

    Tagliatelle
    Jessica T.

    I have to admit, as much as I wanted to love this place, some of the flavors just didn't hit the mark for me. The descriptions on the menu didn't quite match what was served, which left me a bit disappointed. I've been to their older location before it closed down and honestly enjoyed that experience much more. I miss the cozy, inviting atmosphere they used to have. This new space feels a bit boxed in with plain white walls and lacks the charm of the original. The scallops on the half shell were something I was really looking forward to... with a more savory and buttery flavor profile. Unfortunately, the dish completely missed the mark for me. The sauce was overly sweet, almost like passion fruit flavor, which just didn't complement the scallops well. The tagliatelle was a better choice flavor-wise, but the chorizo which was basically sliced sausage, felt a bit out of place. It was almost like a quick and easy way of adding a protein to an otherwise elegant dish. The ceviche leaned too heavily on the citrus, making it a bit unbalanced in my opinion. My ultimate favorite was the crispy potatoes! They were perfectly cooked and delicious, though I wish they had been a bit more generous with the sauce. The touch of salmon roe was a clever and lovely addition as it added the right touch of savory-ness! Overall, it was still a pleasant experience, though I definitely recommend making a reservation. I came in on a whim and ended up waiting about 30 minutes. Not terrible, but something to keep in mind!

    Grilled Texas Redfish

    Belly of the Beast is the kind of place that makes you rethink what "strip mall dining" means. It earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand in 2024 when Texas finally got its highly anticipated and long-awaited Michelin Guide, and I can absolutely see why. Affordable, high-quality food? Check. The Bib Gourmand name stems from the Michelin man mascot, Bibendum. That's my two-cents Michelin history lesson for you! Chef Thomas Bille even won a James Beard Award this June for Best Chef: Texas. With the next Michelin ceremony happening in Houston on October 28, I wouldn't be shocked if they get upgraded and snag a one star. For those reasons, reservations take 2-4 weeks, so book early. I'd been meaning to go since last year, and my friend finally booked it for us in mid-June. Parking can be tricky on a Friday night. It's about 15 minutes from Spring Cypress/I-45, near the water park. FM 2920 gets busy, and the restaurant sits in a shopping strip next to a Circle K. Don't park in the 30-minute spots between RaKuu and Circle K unless you like living dangerously--I wasn't risking it with my new car. Walking inside, it immediately gave me Tatemo vibes (a one star Michelin spot). Discreet signage and entry, cozy decor, and nice waiting area gave it a warm welcome. It's dark inside but not as dark as Tatemo. Elizabeth Bille, Chef Thomas' wife, greeted me and seated me right away. She checked in throughout the night and remembered my name. That's the kind of personal touch that sticks with you. Heather was our server and a total gem. I ordered everything upfront (required for savory dishes), including a couple starters, entrees, and a side. She even turned the jamaica tea into a mocktail when I mentioned I wished they had mocktail options aside from beer and wine. Food came out fast within 10-15 minutes and just before my friend arrived. Perfect timing. Here's the rundown: Peach & Burrata - Burrata with pistachio, shishito peppers, brown butter, and Fredericksburg peaches. Slight mezcal smokiness. Crispy sourdough. Tremendous starter. I love most cheeses, so this was up my alley. Empanadas de papa y queso - Two small empanadas with crème fraîche, Kaluga caviar, and chives. Comté cheese was sharp but runny. Very hot. Fun to try but not my fave. Seared Pork Belly - Berkshire pork with salsa criolla, mango, and cilantro. Served with corn tortillas and peach habanero salsa. Tender, though some pieces were dry. Missed crispy skin. Tagliatelle - Daily house-made pasta with egg yolk, Spanish chorizo, and mushrooms. Rich, creamy, perfectly al dente. Loved how the noodles soaked up the sauce. Grilled Texas Redfish - Crispy skin, large portion, fresh and tender. Served with warm tortillas for DIY tacos. Crispy Brussels Sprouts - Smaller portion, a bit salty. Bacon and Caesar dressing were rich; pickled onions helped balance it. Jamaica Mocktail- Tea turned into a mocktail with club soda and lime. Served in a wine glass, refreshing and generous. Service was excellent. Water was refilled constantly. A couple hiccups: my friend's silverware was taken by accident and took a while to get new silverware, and later a fork fell and nearly took a stack of dishes with it. I tried nearly everything except the empanadas and redfish and had great leftovers. Elizabeth packed everything carefully making sure everything was there, even the peach habanero salsa (Le Jardinier always forgets the aioli for pommes dauphine!). One suggestion, since all savory dishes must be ordered at once, the kitchen should pace the courses better. Everything arrived at once, and our small table couldn't fit it all. It felt rushed trying to make room. Before leaving, Elizabeth waved and said goodbye. So personable. What's cool was that ABC 13's Gina Gaston was dining there that night. I'd absolutely return, especially since it's close to my parents when visiting. The menu is seasonal, and I can't wait to see what Chef Thomas creates next!

    Seared Pork Belly

    It's a very strange description of "New American" and "Tacos" as it's not really those things. They could definitely update that to a more appropriate description. Maybe just the bomb emoji? Or mouth and explosion emojis, perhaps? I digress. GO HERE! We were scheduled a month out, as this place appears to be quite popular. A week after scheduling we received an update for an earlier time. Within 24 hours we had a dinner plan. And so it begins... The parking lot is a little crowded since they have this joint, a sushi bar, a bar, and a speakeasy all in one strip. The area was poppin on a Saturday night. We had a very small wait before being seated. The staff were very attentive and extremely knowledgeable about the menu. We definitely tested their knowledge, but only because we wanted to order the right half of the menu. And order we did! Empanadas de Papa y Queso These were perfectly crispy, with a thin body, and a deliciously liquid cheese interior. We really like these. It's not heavy, but it is flavorful. Peach & burrata Came in a little iron pot with some bomb toast. Once mixed, this went hard. They even bring out more bread upon request, so don't be shy! Excellent flavors. Birria QuesoTacos This was a solid taco, and I liked it, but might be the last on my list of wows for the evening. Well-stuffed tacos, with a tasty consommé. It also came with a hot sauce that I really enjoyed. What stood out about this dish was really the meat inside of the tacos. Tender, juicy, flavorful. By far my favorite birria tacos to-date. Seared Pork Belly This was solid, but completely elevated when taken in with the garnishing and sauce. Enough for a table of 5 to get two tender slices each. Octopus This was one we really looked forward to, and it did not disappoint. Ceviche Mixtos This was also very good, with distinct flavors mixed in, versus a mixed flavor of all items. I normally don't do go for ceviche, but I would definitely order this one again. Tagliatelle This. Was. Awesome! Serves eith a yolk atop the pile of noods, once mixed this had a silky glisten, withba delicious flavor! Highly recommend! Lamb Picanha This one we had last, and it was very good, but I would say stand out, when compared to our other dishes. Rohan Duck 2 Ways This was the $$ plate. You had sliced roasted duck on one side and then a leg of duck on the other. The sliced duck was tasty, but still had a lot of chew on it. It was served with tortillas, and if you didn't get the whole chunk of duck it would come out with your bite regardless. So maybe a bit more tender? The leg was amazing. It fell apart, we each attacked with a fork in a manner that would put Brutus and Cassius to shame. Nothing survived. The cherry Mole was divine, and I made sure that got mopped up. Seared Hokkaido Scallops Perhaps one of the most creative presentations of the evening. The medley of garnishes, and flavors was fantastic. It came in for juicy pieces, that we split amongst the five of us. Definitely would recommend. Crispy potatoes These were surprisingly amazing. I can't say that potatoes are always the bell of the ball, but you haven't had these before. Garnish with salmon row and truffle cream, these little fingerlings packed a heck of a lot of wow. The flavors, the textures, the craving for more as you're writing your review. Alas, that's all we ordered. There were a few items that they were out of on this particular evening that we really wanted to try and might even consider coming back for. This place was entirely worth it. Highly recommend. Excellent service, and even better food!

    Pork belly
    Allie H.

    One of the easiest 5 stars I've given! We were super lucky to get a walk in but def make a reservation. Everything about this place was amazing, from the service to the interior and most importantly THE FOOD. Started with the empanadas, pork belly and birria. The birria definitely were a stand out-so flavorful and juicy. The carne asada was tender and delicious and the Brussel sprouts were a great side dish. I can't recommend this place enough- everything was perfect.

    Chorizo tagliatelle - I don't eat pork, so didn't try this but friends thought it was okay
    Sofia K.

    It was quite a drive for me, an inner looper, but a pleasant experience. Not enough to warrant a return trip of 55 min though. The dishes sounded very interesting and creative on the menu but although some were yummy, others just failed to impress. My favorite was the beef with fig mole. Amazing and bursting with flavor. The gnocchi was interesting too but too heavy for one person. Dish reviews are with pictures.

    This is a small and unassuming location, but don't let that fool you--the food is thoughtful and full of flavor. Chef Thomas and his wife clearly put a lot of care into what they're doing, and it shows on the plate. We started with the burrata, which was solid, and the empanadas, which were so good we'd absolutely order them again. The brillas were super tasty but on the heavier side. The Brussels sprouts were very yummy and a standout for us. The carne asante was flavorful, with especially great beans. The lobster risotto was just okay compared to the rest of the menu. Overall, a unique little gem with well-thought-out dishes and a personal touch. Definitely worth checking out if you enjoy chef-driven restaurants.

    When I heard this restaurant was awarded a Michelin star, I knew I had to check it out! Making a reservation was pretty easy but it was a ways out. Thankfully, they had an opening and we were able to make some changes to our schedule so we could make it. The restaurant is very small. It's located in a shopping center in Spring the size of a hair or nail salon. It's very unassuming most may miss it if they weren't paying attention. The staff were very friendly and you could tell having a good dining experience was important to the owners. We had a party of 5 and we knew we wanted to take advantage of the experience so we ordered A LOT of food. There were so many dishes that I really enjoyed. The octopus was cooked perfectly, not chewy or rubbery. The ceviche was very refreshing and a nice touch with the watermelon. The pasta was very flavorful. If I were to do it again, I'd forgo the peach and burrata and the lamb. It wasn't that I didn't like it, it just wasn't amazing in comparison to the other dishes. They ran out of a few dishes we really wanted to try, which was super disappointing. Even with the more fine dining feel, price point for the quality and what you get was still really good. To me, the food quality and experience made it worth every penny.

    Birria Tacos, Crispy Potatoes, Fish Filet, Carne Asada
    Serena S.

    This spot has been on my list for sooo long, and my boyfriend surprised me with a birthday dinner here--finally checking it off for me! The second he started driving and we ended up in Spring, I knew where we were headed. The restaurant isn't located in a fancy strip center, but once you step inside, you're transported. It's small, cozy, and elegant--with clear signs of thoughtful remodeling. We were greeted immediately and asked to wait a few minutes. There are two small couches up front, which made for a comfortable wait. We started with the grilled Spanish octopus and the empanadas de papa y queso. The empanadas were packed with Comté cheese--my first time trying it! I'd describe it as fresh and milky, almost pillowy in texture. So simple and delicious. The octopus had a great char and was tender, but the plating looked a bit messy, like it had slipped to the side. That said, the matcha salsa it came with was a standout pairing. For entrées, we ordered the Texas Wagyu carne asada, the fish filet, and the birria tacos. Let me just say: I'll be coming back just for the Wagyu. It melted in my mouth and needed nothing--not even the (incredible) salsa that came with it. Everything on that plate--the tortillas, onions, beans--was delicious, but the Wagyu was the undeniable star. The fish filet was basically a fancy, elevated fish sandwich: piping hot, crunchy on the outside, and paired with yet another phenomenal sauce... and yes, there was caviar too. The birria tacos were good, but not something I'd come back here specifically for. We also ordered the crispy potatoes on the side. I wanted to love them (I'm a sucker for potatoes), but the salmon roe on top was a little too fishy for me. That said, my boyfriend devoured them, so it's definitely a matter of personal preference. By the end of the meal, I was way too full for dessert--but I'll absolutely be making the trip back. On top of the food, our waitress was truly the cherry on top. She gave off the poshest fairy godmother vibes--elegant, warm, and full of great recommendations. Her energy matched the entire experience perfectly.

    Empanada and pozole dumplings
    Andrea P.

    Belly of the Beast exceeded expectations. The service was amazing from start to finish, and the food was just as impressive. Do yourself a favor and order the steak--it was cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. Everything about the experience felt thoughtful and well done. Make sure you make reservations because the place is small. I can't wait to go back!

    Why 5 stars? Because the breakfast tacos were all that I hoped they would be…read more --- --- --- When a place has 4.9 stars, it's basically impossible that it's gonna be bad. I'd wanted to try La Cocina for a while for that reason and those plans finally came to fruition. You walk up to a counter that has all the ingredients for taco making right in front of you. The guy asks you how many you are going to want, and if you want flour or corn, so he can let them know in the back to make your tortillas fresh. About 2 minutes later, out came our tortillas. I ordered 3: one with eggs and bacon, one with some kind of egg and sausage combo and one non-breakfast taco with fajita meat. The fajita taco was just okay, but the breakfast tacos had me thinking about them for hours after the fact. They aren't very big, so if you're a growing boy like me, I'd aim for 4-5 of them. The guy behind the counter tried to guide us into his suggestion of 2 each, but I jumped in and said make it 3 for me. If I could go back in time, I would have done 4 and made them all the breakfast variety. Both breakfast tacos were straight bangers from another dimension. All the sauces were great and none were too spicy. I might have to return to this place sooner rather than later because I really did think about it the rest of the day. I love you, La Cocina.

    This place was amazing! We went here Sunday afternoon as we saw it had good reviews on yelp. We…read morewere not disappointed! The tacos were incredible and the owner was very friendly and nice as well! I would 100% recommend and will be coming back.

    Ok.. a lot to say as I had no idea... And this is my interpretation...First misconception…read more.. Fruiteria, I now understand this is a vegetable market.. everything you would need for Mexican dishes, fresh and ready for adding to your meals along with a refrigerated area with milk, eggs, beer(!) and most anything you can imagine... Carniceria means a fresh meat market, meat preseasoned and ready for the grill and steaks that are not.. all looking ready to go... And taqueria, a kitchen or grill serving in house soups and meals.. making some of the best home made plates around. Needless to say, this was a first time visit... I did not know what to expect but thanks to a referral, I'm glad I did!! Clean, huge, over whelming yet intimate.. the variety of canned goods, fresh veggies, refrigerated items and a kitchen blending all these fresh contents together for some awesome dishes ... Ooops! I forgot about the dessert too!.. And, the staff are very friendly and helpful offering free taste samples of all the weekend specials... (Which filled me up!) Wow! Bottom line , this is my new favorite for menudo... awesome flavor, contents are spot on great (with onion.. a first!), and the barbacoa was awesome!! We ordered to go and for the first time, we couldn't eat it all.. we have leftovers!! Las Tarascas will be a prime resource for great food and all my immediate grocery needs... Worth a visit for sure!! Just my opinion.

    Came here for the first time at 6PM, as I just moved to the area from Austin and was badly craving…read moresome birria tacos. I initially googled birria tacos near me and seen a review say something along the lines of 'their birria tacos are to die for' so I had to try them out. Thank you to whoever posted that review! It was actually like 5 minutes up the street, which was so convenient. It's next to the store/gas station. Plenty of options for parking, but there's not any traditional parking lines or spaces. I just parked near the side. Also, I believe they ONLY take cash! Of course I ordered the birria tacos and ate them there. They were pretty good and I could definitely see myself coming back (especially for the convenience). I will say that I've had better (I'm a huuuuge authentic taco lover & I've had plenty of birria tacos from different places/cities). I would give them a 8/10. I was looking for it to be more on the "messier" side (packed with meat, real cheesy, loaded with onions and cilantro), but theirs was more on the conservative side lol which I'm glad they took their time making it, but I like my birria real messy! I did find another birria spot but it's 20 min away so I would still come back due to convenience. Overall great tacos!

    The tacos and burritos are very good here. My kids love the hot wings as well. I would highly…read morerecommend this place.

    Darn good tacos and tamales! Order at the counter and find a seat. Typical ambiance for a taqueria…read more Very friendly staff. The four of us loved this place and will be back.

    Serving tacos in the Humble TX area since 2022, Nando's Tacos (not to be confused with the chicken…read morerestaurant) serves up delicious full size tacos. My brother and I stopped in for carryout breakfast tacos on a Sunday morning. Alas, they didn't have brisket breakfast tacos, but had some good alternatives. Their flour tortilla is the choice here, and I believe it is Sonoran style: good enough to just eat by itself. My absolute favorite was the barbacoa ($3.25), very tender stewed beef with added onion and cilantro...not meant to be a breakfast taco I think. The other 3 tacos I tried did have egg. The potato & egg ($3.25) had big chunks of potato and plenty of egg: very filling not particularly tasty. The chorizo and egg ($3.25) was was prepared together, with the small chorizo pieces mixed in with the egg. And the fajita and egg ($4.79) used two slices of skirt steak flavored with fajita flavoring...for my preference, works better in skillet fajitas than in a breakfast taco. They also have menudo on the weekends, and both their corn and flour tortillas are homemade. As mentioned before, the flour tortillas are really good, and the barbacoa is definitely worth a visit.
