    Tamale
    Adam H.

    **This is a 3.5-star review based on a single visit.** I have my regular Tex-Mex spot, but I'm always on the prowl for alternatives. This place is worthy. First, the red salsa is wonderful. It is served cold (as salsa should be) and has a nice balance of onion and cilantro. I'm fairly certain that I tasted cumin -- which is a no-no -- but the stuff was still good. It helped that they brought me picosa to spice it up. The green sauce is piquant, which is also a good thing. The tamales and cheese enchilada (both ordered al a carte) were good. Not great. The chimichanga, on the other hand, was one of the best I've had in a while. Refried beans were good (not too much lard) and the rice was average. Service here is friendly, but our waiter seemed to be distracted at times. This place is huge and clean. Will definitely return.

    Looks like soap water....but should be horchata.
    Kelley N.

    Meh... Horchata was watered down, asked for a replacement, they brought lemonade which was also watered down. Lunch menu is decent for prices and food isn't horrible, but it's not great either. Mediocre at best. Very slow service, even though place wasn't busy at all. Seems more of a hang out and drink and watch games place rather than focused on quality of food.

    SPINACH ENCHILADAS
    John D.

    Coming home from a disappointing commute into Houston, I decided to have dinner here. Los Ramirez is among one of those places I frequently pass by, but have never set foot in so it was my first time swinging by. It was a Friday night so the vibe was lively. Lots of people were at the restaurant. I plopped down by a fully occupied table and ordered the spinach enchiladas, a water, and an unsweetened tea. The meal tasted decent, but the portions were so-so. Accompanying the large helping of enchiladas were smaller helpings of refried beans and Mexican rice. It took a couple of spoonfuls to finish both. I really wished I had more of each. As with any visit to a Mexican eatery, I judged the place's chips and salsa. Not bad except the chips weren't as plentiful. It's no wonder Los Ramirez has the rating that it does, but as it with any three stars I give, I believe another chance is possible.

    The food was good the service was also good. Tex mex style the menu had many options. I could eat a different meal every day for 6 months and probably still not try everything. The ambiance was typical of a Tex mex local restaurant. There seemed to be a lot of regulars that sit at the bar and all seemed to know each other. Everyone was very friendly. Will be coming back

    I've been going to this restaurant since it was first opened on El Dorado. It has become our comfort food location. My son came home from Baton Rouge and the first place he wanted to go was Los Ramirez. We love our servers Gerson and Eduardo. Always on point with service and they treat us like family. But today was a bit different. Not the food or the service. That's always great without a doubt. I noticed a service charge for 3 something. I questioned it to the cashiers and they said that the consumer now has to pay for the credit card services. Now the prices went up and that's ok. But usually the price increase offsets these fees. No one carries cash anymore so that means we have to pay to pay? That doesn't make sense at all. We go there for the service and the food. We pay for service and the food. We shouldn't have to pay to use the credit card services. No one likes these types of surprises. I hope you don't lose customers over this. During the COVID years the customers kept your doors open. I will think twice or more before I go back.

    Enchiladas
    Perry F.

    This place has some great enchiladas! I would say these enchiladas are the best bang for your buck in Houston that I've tried. The plate is huge and only $10. The chicken in the enchiladas is nicely season. The plate in the picture is one cheese enchilada, one chicken, and one beef. The chips and salsa are nothing special in my option. They are good, just not amazing. I find them to be overall standard. I did prefer the green sauce over the red. Service was good. The food does take some time to arrive on the table. About 10-20 minutes. This is always a good sign, though. If food comes out too fast, I question if italian microwaved. The restaurant is similar to a small banquet hall, just a big empty room with tables and some booths. I would say if you're going here, try the enchiladas. You won't be disappointed! I can't review anything else because when I go back, I order the same thing.

    Shrimp poblano
    Valerie C.

    Our family loves Los Ramirez. We have been coming here for a long time. The service is always good. The place is always full of life and great smelling food. The decor is colorful. We come here at least twice a month but more of family is in town. The breakfast is always good, lunch is good, dinner is good. We are always happy when we come here. We have been here so much I have tons of food pics that I will post. But our menu favorites are the menudo, the caldo de res, the pozole. Also the shrimp poblano, asado de puerco, enchiladas, bistec ranchero, the taco plate , i could go on. The margaritas are tasty , the micheladas are good too. We definitely recommend coming here by yourself or with family.

I parked and an attendant told me it was supposed to be valet... oops! But he let me stay there and then brought me my car back after we ate. The vibe was cute! Very dated (but in a fun Vintage way) ambiance on the outside and very rustic Tex Mex vibe on the inside. They told us it would be 45 minutes and it was probably closer to an hour and 15 but we checked out the market across the street while we waited. We finally got seated and met our waiter, who I believe was named Jose (I should not have waited this long to do my review!) and he was awesome! Funny, attentive, and super friendly. We ordered the Queso Flameado as a starter. I had never had it nor ever seen anything like it but oh my goodness, it was DELICOUS. I ordered the Antiquas (cheese enchiladas) as my main meal and not only were they so good, but the portion size was huge as well. For $17 I definitely got my money's worth! I left full, happy, and would definitely come back the next time I'm visiting Houston. Well worth the wait!

For drinks, my husband and our friends tried some of the margaritas from their large and unique margaritas menu, as well as their hibiscus agua fresca. All of the drinks were very pretty and it seemed like everyone enjoyed them, too! We started with their chips and salsa trio, which we all really liked. The chips were on the thicker side, but were crispy and not stale or chewy at all. Each of the salsas were quite different, and two were served warm, which we really liked! For the price, I'd consider getting the chips and salsa as a non-negotiable, honestly. For entrees, we tried the enchilada rojas, chilaquiles verde w/ chicken and beef, birria barbacoa ramen, and huaraches. My husband felt like his ramen could have included more meat, but aside from that everyone really enjoyed what they ordered. The highlight was probably the desserts, though! We got a quatro leches and two ordered of their giant and amazing churros. Both were incredibly tasty and reason enough to return for another visit in the future!
