The chicken fajita enchilada was my favorite on the Julissa plate. Excellent food!
Alicia O.

Full of flavor! The chips and salsa were great. The food was a great combo of traditional and Tex mex. I got the Julissa plate which I enjoyed very much. I'm glad I decided to try this spot. I would recommend and can't wait to come back.

Flavors are strong, lots of flavor but hard to tell if gravy and salsas are fresh. Green salsa I know was refrigerated and the red salsa is room temperature but a bit salty, just a bit. Ordered enchiladas with beef, they were average with gravy and minimal cheese. I had asked for extra gravy and onions but cancelled due to $1 plus up charge. the refried beans were the best part but still a tad to much salt. Hmmm, not sure I will come back since the ambiance is a little dreary and dark. plus service could use some SMILES! Overall i say its a nice place for a quick stop or no other option. Clean and prompt service a plus. Bill was 14.05 for lunch enchiladas and a coke.

Guisada burrito has potatoes, beans  & cheese.

We were visiting & found this spot on Yelp. We LOVED it! We had breakfast & used the Yelp check in for a free order of queso. We couldn't finish our breakfast, so we got it to go. It was wonderful later not even heated up! I think that says a lot. The server was friendly, attentive & helpful since it was our 1st visit. My BF is a coffee snob & he said the coffee was good. That says a lot as well. We shared a carne guisada burrito & the super burrito. We both have hearty appetites & couldn't finish them. I'm about quality over quantity, & they both were among the best burritos I've had anywhere. The waitress said that everything is house made & it definitely tasted that way. The salsas were great to add some heat, but not needed for flavor. I live in the Heights & have lots of TexMex options. I would kill to have a mom & pop place like this here!!! I definitely will come back to try lunch/ dinner. Oh, it's BYOB!!! I loved sitting at the counter & watching them cook. I couldn't believe how fast we got our food. If I remember correctly, there are only small tables along the wall & counter seating. Seating for a party of 6 might be tricky if you intend to socialize. This is simply a heads up. It will not keep me away! Please note- this review was for the Friendswood location.

Has Home made tortillas both corn and flour. They have horchata. The Salsa is great, both red and green. The food was delicious, atmosphere was great as well as customer service. I'll 100% be back.

We were in the area looking at the new house and it was getting close to lunchtime. Hubby asks what I want, like he doesn't know me, and we decided Mexican. We looked on Yelp (of course) and decided here. It's a little place in a small strip mall and the GPS took us the back way so we're going through neighborhoods thinking, where are we going? But we got there and there it was, right on the end. It wasn't very busy at all and we were greeted and seated immediately by a super nice young man. We got our drinks soon and waited a little longer to order but it gave us a chance to look through the menu and enjoy the delicious chips and salsa. They serve red and green salsa, and although the red salsa is warm, it was delicious! Hubby ordered the two chalupas with fajita beef and I ordered chicken flautas. Wow. This was some seriously delicious food! It came out hot and fresh and the flavors were just ridiculous good! The place was super clean as was the bathrooms. They sat us where I could see the kitchen and everyone was bring very sanitary which is great to see. All in all this place was clean, the people were awesome and friendly, and the food was amazing! Five stars for reals!

Charro beans are decent
Kristen M.

I typically would have gone somewhere else but since it was a Sunday non of my usual taco spots were open so I called in a to go order for 2 fajita beef tacos with charro beans and rice , which also came with chips and salsa . I showed up 10 minutes after putting the order in and went through the drive thru - I was asked to pull up and wait , so I did and waited 15 more minutes before I decided to go through the drive thru again and finally got my order . The salsa was warm and tasted fresh, not spicy at all . Tacos were ok , tortillas were a little dry and the meat was average and not really comparable to typical fajita beef street tacos as it was cut different -( like in cubes ?) Charro beans were surprisingly good though and I loved the cilantro that was added . Overall the food was ok but the wait time was poor. I would be willing to give them another chance if the opportunity presented itself .

Good place to eat. I suggest happy nachos. They are not open Sundays, despite what you see online and on every map app.

Decided to stop here for a quick Fathers day lunch since we were all craving Mexican. The place was…read moresurprisingly empty and we were seated right away. Shortly after we were seated, our server came by to get our drink order and brought chips and salsa and a bean dip. Everything was so good which made for a really strong start for the meal! My sister in law and I both ordered margaritas. She ordered the Organic margarita and I ordered the Mango Habanero one. I thought my margarita was way too sweet but my sister in law loved hers. For my meal I ordered the three street tacos plate with chicken. This came with rice and charro beans on the side. The charro beans were absolutely BOMB. Probably my favorite part of the whole meal. The chicken in the tacos was also really good. Very juicy and flavorful. Everyone at the table really enjoyed the food. I was surprised to see the negative reviews on here. We had a really positive experience with the food, service, everything! Will definitely come back next time I am in town!

Was driving by and noticed this adorable place and never had before so we decided to stop in and…read moretry it. So glad we did!! We've got a new favourite queso on the list! Absolutely delicious. The champagne margarita is very fun; hadn't had anything like that before and bubbly goes with everything! Sampled the skinny margarita too though and as far as classic margs go, that one was the best of the two. The shrimp nachos were fabulous; great option instead of the usual ground beef. And the whole atmosphere is great... like a Mexican diner. Love the inside and the outdoor patio is so inviting. We will definitely be back!
