For 22 years my family and I have been waiting to have a great Mexican breakfast in Katy that was available Monday - Fridays and not just on the weekends. This place is it! Came across this place on social media and I'm so happy I did! First of all, the service was excellent! Their menu had many breakfast options. I had the Huevos Rancheros with barbacoa. The eggs were cooked perfectly with a delicious salsa on top, the potatoes were soft inside with a nice crisp on the outside. The beans had a great flavor and texture and I loved the little touch of chorizo on top of the refried beans. The barbacoa was not overly greasy and the plate was served with homemade tortillas. The food was delicious and the coffee was on point. Loved the friendly atmosphere. Can wait to try their dinner options. I will definitely go back! Delicious Mexican cuisine! This place is a must try! read more

Today was my first day dining in at Castillo's kitchen. and I am totally impressed with the quality of food and the large portions that they serve you, but what really made me a big fan, and I will be back is the customer service. They went the extra mile to get to know their customers. Thank you for a wonderful experience. read more

Solid Tex Mex. Pretty run-of-the-mill, but there's absolutely nothing to complain about here. Staff is friendly and attentive (counter service, but they still come out to check on patrons), and the food is flawless, but unspectacular. I know it sounds like criticism, but I actually really like this place. The chips and salsa are very good, and everything I've ordered has been enjoyable. Worth the trip . . . read more

I've been coming to eat here for the past few years and I've got to say that they have one of the best Menudos in town! Excellent Barbacoa too. Worthy of waiting for the weekend to come and get some!All food is great and you really can't go wrong with their menu. Very good customer service as well. read more

Food was excellent to our tastes. Beef fajitas, beef enchiladas were great. The likely house made green (coke bottle) hot sauce on the table is perfect to me - spicy Serrano. The service was order at counter self serve sodas/tea and sit and the wait staff is super courteous. Parking is a strip center. Since this food tasted great and actually had some flavor, we'll be back. read more

Gina the owner is present and makes the place magical for guests! read more

This review is for Castillo's breakfast/brunch. Absolute excellence. These are the best breakfast tacos you will find anywhere. They have the best green salsa too. Tortillas are excellent. We also ordered the chips and queso. Freakin' fantastic! Castillo's is the sister restaurant of Tejas Taco House in Chinatown. If you don't know, Tejas is where you want to go if you want a Tex-Mex breakfast. Their green salsa is perfection. I've been going to Tejas at least once a week for the past 12 years. Try them! Castillo's is very similar, only open for dinner, open on Sunday, and they have a full bar. It's like Heaven. Other great breakfast and brunch meals: Carne Guisada, Chiliquiles, and Migas. read more

My husband and I absolutely love Castillo's, and it has quickly become one of our favorite places to eat. It's one of our special spots now because every visit feels like we're coming home. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by the owner with such genuine warmth that we instantly felt like family. It reminded me of being at my grandma's house, where everyone is welcomed with a smile and every meal is made with love. The food is incredible--fresh, authentic, and full of flavor. You can tell they take pride in what they serve. Not only is the quality outstanding, but the portions are generous, so you definitely get your money's worth. It's becoming harder to find restaurants that offer both amazing quality and great portion sizes, and Castillo's delivers on both. The service is just as exceptional. Everyone is friendly, attentive, and truly cares about making your experience memorable. If you're looking for a place with delicious homemade food, generous portions, outstanding service, and an atmosphere that makes you feel like family, Castillo's is the place to go. My wife and I will definitely be back many more times. Highly recommend! read more

Found on Yelp. Don't let the exterior fool you. Very nice inside. Service was great and pleasant. Food was top notch. Margaritas were very good. Will visit again read more

My family and I loved Castillo's! So far it's my favorite local Mexican place. Their pork verde is some of the best I've had in a restaurant, homemade tortillas and flour tortilla chips, amazing spicy jalapeno sauce. The fajitas are not traditional as sizzling, unfortunately, and we were there at the very end of the day that the fryer oil needed to be changed, leaving my sons chimichanga with that dirty fryer oil taste, but the chimichanga was over stuffed with great flavor. I'd go back just for the sweet, attentive service and the pork verde though. Aces! The shop itself was cute and I love their Jesus and taco's slogan. Everything seemed to be go up to the counter and order, serve your own drinks and such, but they waited on us hand and foot right up to closing. Absolutely awesome service! read more

We love it here!! They are very attentive and everyone is so nice!! They have an awesome salsa and queso. We have not had any dish here that we have not liked read more

Great service with great people. Enjoyed the food and unique presentation on queso. My wife and I will be returning to support this local business read more

This is a great place to eat and amazing service. Gina has set up a great mexican kitchen experience based on her family recipes. This is not a chain restaurant, you are coming to dinner at Castillos. The OG margharita is tequila, countreau, lime juice and a bit of agave syrup- amazing. The menu is full of surprises- seafood stuffed jalepenos appetizer was awesome. All of your favorites are there and then there is the house specialties - the poblano chicken was unbelievable. I smiled through every bite. Thanks Gina, next time I am bringing my wife- happy anniversary! read more

10/10 food was delicious!! staff was amazing! we will most definitely be back!! i love the ambiance. super cute!!

Vibrant restaurant with a wide variety on the menu. Very clean and colorful. I enjoyed the Combination Plate which had a good cheese enchilada, tostada, rice and beans, and a crispy crunchy taco ($12.99). Rice and beans alright. I had to request chips and salsa, which were very good, my new favorite green salsa in Katy. Prices are okay, just wish a little cheaper and the specials a little cheaper. I'll definitely return. 4 stars for being very good. read more

Very good drinks! Excellent breakfast tacos and great service! I went two days in a row it was so good!

Margaritas on point. Pretty much goes with anything on the menu. Hubby likes the burgers!

we went last night for a quick supper. Wowsa! there were of us, 2 couples. we were greeted immediately upon entering. the employees are very friendly and helpful. we ordered at the counter and found a table. we had the jalapeño appetizer and queso. the chips and salsa are my hubby's favorite. he likes the thicker chips and these did not disappoint. I had a breakfast taco (which I reheated the next day and it was AMAZING!) and the carne guisada taco. the tortillas are fresh and very, very good. the carne was tender and tasty. I also tasted the tortilla soup. YUM! a great broth with well developed flavors. Castillo was in the soft opening phase, which we didn't realize. they run it smoothly and efficiently. the kitchen was super quick. everything arrived hot and tasty. they said they will have a full service bar in the future. all of the employees are friendly and professional. prices are great too. you will love Castillos and won't be disappointed. give it a try. we will return. we all decided this place is very good. very. good. read more

Had to go back because I have a list. Lol Knocked out a potato, egg & cheese breakfast taco and tried the club sandwich. The taco was good. It was a nice size and really nothing extraordinary. The club sandwich was nice, fresh and beautifully made. The Cholula mayo is what made it. The cold cuts once again were the regular deli meat & cheese. Nothing special. On the crinkle French fries. They were dark on the outside but didn't seem fully cooked on the inside and I'm trying to figure out whether they were made in house or store bought frozen as they appear to be a thicker cut of fries. Will try the poblano chicken on my next visit. As always, the staff was extremely nice. read more

Great food, Service, Ambiance & prices describe this restaurant. I've been look for a new breakfast/lunch place, and I found it here! Valentina was very helpful & kind. She told me about the specials without hesitation...unlike some places that don't even want to be bothered. I'm excited to go back!!! read more

We're new to the area and we think this is the new breakfast spot! To say we were impressed in an understatement. This restaurant is so efficient, service is on point, and the food is delicious. The way this restaurant functions, it was obvious there is great leadership, work ethic and dedication to the establishment. It stayed busy while we were there but tables were flipped so quickly and smoothly. Its order at the front and then sit yourself, but while there are no servers, the staff does check in on you time to time, which was nice. We met and spoke to the owner, who seemed well known and liked by the locals, who was also working hard cleaning tables and sweeping himself, and wow. He sets a wonderful example for his team. Truly commendable and clearly running things well. Now on to the food. The breakfast tacos with salsa were great, my husband's chilaquiles were delightful - better than any others we've had (I stole a bite), a great balance of cheese, crema, flavorful salsa, and eggs. Seriously, I think they're a must have. Honestly, I see why this place stays packed, but don't let the line scare you away. It moves quickly and tables flip just as fast. Total recommend and I cannot wait to be back. read more

Castillo's Mexican Restaurant - Chilaquiles - Green Seriously must have. - Mexican Near Me - Katy, Texas

I ordered the Carne Guisada which wasn't bad. I give it a 7 out of 10. The fresh made tortillas are delicious. I give those a 9 out of 10. The problem I have is with the value. For the Carne Guisada and a Coke Zero, I paid $20.03 including tax. However, they provide absolutely no service here. You order at a counter and pay at the time of your order. Fountain beverages are self-service. I can go to many other Latin restaurants, receive food of similar quality, pay similar prices, but receive table side service. The kicker is that their cash register promted me to leave a tip. They are providing no service but want you to tip them. Absolutely ridiculous. Unless they start providing table side service or lower their prices to compensate me for the lack of service, I won't be back. read more

Recommended by my mom and stepdad, when I offered to treat them to dinner last Saturday. This is a mid-size, clean, family-owned local restaurant. Steady flow is f customers, but we were able to be seated right away. No long waits like at the chain restaurants. You order at the counter, which also doubles as the full bar. And then the staff brings you their food. Self serve soft drink and tea stations. Everyone was happy with their selections. I particularly enjoyed that their food was not overloaded with cilantro (which I can't stand). Guacamole was fresh and bright green. The red sauce was tasty and an even hotter, spicier green sauce is available. My folks said they have a terrific breakfast. I may have to pop back in next Saturday and try that. I promise to take photos next time. read more

I was told the food was delicious at this restaurant. The place looked new, decorated well. The staff was friendly and the food came out quickly. The salsa was very tasty but not hot. My friend ordered a fajita burrito and they had a good amount of protein in them. I will have to come back on a weekend and try their menudo. read more

First off wow! The service was top notch, we paid for our food upfront and maybe about 10 minutes after we sat down we got our food, everyone was really nice. The food itself taste delicious I'm usually a little picky when it comes to chicken anything, and I had the chicken chimichanga with refried beans. It came out super tasty the cilantro tasted fresh the queso on top was great I honestly was pleasantly surprised with everything including the ambiance. They will definitely be seeing me again. P.S. the green salsa in the Coke bottle was amazing. read more

Do not expect to be waited on. This is counter ordering. Do expect to be asked for a tip. My tip is don't. Food quality low. Nachos were messy, expensive and big disappointment. Enchiladas were not impressive. Salsa and chips were good. Margaritas were outstanding. If you drink enough of them you won't remember you Paid way to much for bad food. Won't be going back ever! read more

First time, food was good but on the pricey side. I was picking a burrito up to go. Most Taqueria's or Mexican restaurants burritos are huge. Castillos was the Texas Burrito priced $13.99 and I upgraded $4.00 more for fajita meat. And asked to add cheese and sour cream to the burrito and enchilada sauce it comes with they pour over I requested on the side. So $18 for this 3 inch not kidding burrito and they put the sour cream and cheese on the side instead of inside and it came with rice and some lettuce with chopped tomatoes on top. I was disappointed in the portion size compared to the price. And they didn't follow instructions adding cheese and sour cream. read more

It was Ok... definitely not the quality you get in San Antonio. But service was great! Restaurant was clean. WWWAAAYYY "Too much flour & absolutely no tomato whatsoever in the sauce in their Carne Guisada. The migas were good & bacon egg & cheese taco was good. So, not a place I would go out of my way to stop at again en route to Houston. But if I had to it's edible. read more

First time visit today, nice staff and really enjoyed our meals. Cute place! Will be back!
