    There's not one single bad item on the menu. All the beers you want! A home cooked taste to a pop'n nice spot by the ball parks!

    This place is everything! There's not a bad thing ok the menu! I'd recommend come hungry because you're not going to be disappointed!!!!! The service has that welcome to Texas feel! The ambiance is Htown sports love and other sports teams too. You can sit indoors or outdoors!

    Brisket tacos with mac and cheese  Pork sliders
    Emily T.

    We came here while in town for the College National Championship game. This place is a fun time. Seating is ample both inside and out, and they have outdoor games available. Music and vibes are 5/5! I ordered the birria tacos with a side of mac, and my friend got the brisket sliders. Both were really tasty, but the brisket sliders were the way to go. The mac was alright - kinda of a mushy texture all around. Service was quick. We ordered at the counter, and our food was ready in about 5 minutes.

    Friendly pregame location. Micheladas are delicious and so are the birria tacos. Will definitely come again.

    Amazing atmosphere & great vibes Friendly staff Just an all around trill place to hangout & eat great food. They do offer alcohol with drink specials. Great view of Downtown which includes George R. Brown & Minute Maid Park.

    Birria tacos and a Moscow mule
    Hunter H.

    The place was dead at 1:30 pm when I went there but the one bartender/server/landscaper/host was incredibly friendly. I quickly chose the birria tacos from the small menu and a Moscow mule as it was a hot day. These tacos are great! Highly recommend. Get the Birria tacos. Seriously good.

    mac & brisket quesadilla ($20)

    Bar food who ? Honestly blown away with the quality, no fatty brisket and no shyness of cheese - the quesadilla was damn good. If I had to complain it was a little hard to distinguish where exactly the place was, and once there, where even to order. Daytime ambience not the best but probably easier to navigate during later time hours (with more foot traffic as well).

    Beef fajita tacos
    Mahwish S.

    Came with a bike crew and only chicken or beef available. Taco Tuesday special is $15 for 2 tacos and a margarita. For the sizing, it's kind of pricey. The meat was cooked well.

    Had the birria tacos. Comes with 3 to the order and the gravy it comes with has a BBQ/chipotle pepper hit in it. Solid tasting salsa verde on the side, but didn't add too much heat which is how I like it personally. The meat inside is flavorful and plastered together with cheese inside. May be a little on the expensive side, but it was also filling for a big boi like me. I usually like to get my tacos on the from a food truck in a parking lot instead of a brick and mortar. But, overall a fun experience. Inside there is a sports bar and chill kind of vibe with high tops to hang out at. And I really enjoyed the michelada I had. I think this would be a chill spot to hang out with a large group of people and would be conducive to visiting with friends.

    Tacos Dona Lena is a very well known restaurant that has fed me twice recently and I enjoyed both…read morevisits. Parking is in front of the restaurant located in a strip center. Inside it is a one room eatery with counter service. My first visit was to try the Birria Burrito for $16 with the meal delivered about 10 minutes later. It consisted of their Birria meat cooked for 4 hours mixed with chorizo, cheese, rice, beans and sour cream all wrapped in a large flour tortilla seasoned with their special red colored seasoning. With the meal came a cup of consomne'. Guy Fieri would say, Welcome to Flavortown! It was delicious. The Birria beef was so tender and the flavored flour tortilla with that proprietary red seasoning they use was perfect. It was a very filling meal and well worth the price. So much so, I thought about it the next day. Another visit was to try one of their specialities, the Quesabirria for $14. This meal consisted of 3 grilled and crispy corn tortillas seasoned again with their special red colored magic dust. The tortillas had the delicious Birria meat and cheese inside and I again loved them. The tortillas are only slightly crispy and the meat, cheese and tortillas memorable. This meal also came with a cup of consommé for dipping. Another nice thing about eating here is the customer service. The lady at the counter was very friendly and helpful. The guy bussing the tables acted more like the owner than an employee with his helpfulness and the actual manager came out to check on us. Impressive for a counter service restaurant. Tacos Dona Lena deserves its reputation as one of the best restaurants of its kind. Incredible food and employees all at very reasonable prices. When I think of tacos and burritos, this place is what comes to mind!

    Allow me to be Review No. 1,100 following my visit to this wonderful culinary gem yesterday…read more By default, Spring Branch is Houston's Koreatown, but it's not unusual to find establishments with Spanish-language branding on them throughout the neighborhood. And Tacos Doña Lena, on which I'll heap tons of praise on, is among them. A group of friends and I had supper here before a live show down the street at Eighteen Ten Ojeman. Upon seeing the storefront when we pulled into the parking lot, my first thought was, "Okay, this is legit Mexican, not Tex-Mex." The interior is quite small with some tables and an ample late Saturday afternoon crowd. What caught my eye is how the environment is what you might expect to find at a family-run taqueria off the beaten path. Rock en Español blaring from the sound system. Colorful papel picado draped from the ceiling. A framed Mexican flag and several references to the central Mexican municipality of Guanajuato. The intoxicating smell of spice-laced grilled beef wafting through the air. Simply put, we're not in Kansas anymore, Toto. I glanced at the menu. There are numerous, delicious-sounding items that happen to be wallet-friendly, a bit cheaper than if you were to go to Gringos or Jimmy Changas. According to a mutual, the tacos here are the main draw, but what really caught my attention and appetite was the ramen birria. Mujeres y caballeros (ladies and gentlemen), let me proclaim that Tacos Doña Lena turns a noodle dish with origins in Japan and is a known staple in college dorm rooms into a must-try on this part of America's fourth-largest city. Two amazing food cultures unite for a fiery meeting of the minds. Anchored by a rich, tasty consomé that's spicy but not enough to where you need to drink multiple glasses of water, there's a prime mix of ramen noodle, beef birria, cheese, fried egg, rabanos, garbazo, and corn accompanied by cilantro, onions, and a pair of fried tostadas. I was so impressed with how the contents of the ramen blended together. Since it was ramen after all despite the south of the border touchup, I still ate it the traditional way: pick up the noodles and sip the soup. There was so much that I had no choice but to put it in a takeout container. Sure, Spring Branch may be home to some great traditional Korean restaurants, but don't sleep on Tacos Doña Lena.

We pulled up to this food truck and, while placing our order, I instantly had the feeling that this crew knew exactly what they were doing. That impression proved to be spot on as soon as I took my first bite. The tacos were fresh, flavorful, and packed with the kind of simple, honest ingredients that make great breakfast tacos so satisfying. No gimmicks, no unnecessary fuss -- just well-executed food that delivers exactly what you're hoping for. The service was efficient, the operation ran smoothly, and it was easy to see why there was a steady stream of customers. Overall, an excellent breakfast taco stop and exactly the kind of local experience I look for when I'm in Houston. Saluti.

I would like to try their other tacos and give a more detailed review. I will be back! but for sure the quesadilla was a hit for me

Since it was my first time here, I ended up ordering 1 chorizo and 1 asada taco, churros, limon aguas, and my friend got the asada taco as well and a hortchata! Since it was super busy (especially on saturday night) it was about a 30 minute wait foe our food but it was well worth it! They hand out free chicharrones and they were super crunchy and a nice snack while we waited for our food. The limon aguas was super refreshing especially in the summer heat and the horchata was really good! We sat at the counter top that overlooks the kitchen. I love that the open kitchen concept so you can see them making your food right in front of you! Everything smelled so good so I was excited for my food. I love that they give radishes, cucumbers, and plenty of limes on the side. I definitely love all of the toppings and the more the better! I tried all of the salsas and the salsa de chile de arbol was by far my favorite! super spicy but had so much flavor. The chorizo was good but a little dry for my liking. I did just want to try it so I can try more than one flavor but I think I would get it again as a breakfast taco with egg instead. The asada was my favorite of the two so much flavor and plenty of meat! I was content with these 2 tacos but I could have definitely eaten more if we didn't order churros as well! The churros came with classic condensed milk and dulce de leche which is just carmelized condensed milk. The churros were crunchy and warm on the outside and had a chewy texture like mochi on the inside! Super yummy and not too sweet! I liked both sauces and would definitely get this again. Overall, I had a great experience and I will be craving the tacos until the next time I can come back! I can't wait to try a lot of their other menu items as well. Definitely recommend!
