    Bean and cheese and migas taco.
    Chris L.

    My wife and I were looking to grab a quick breakfast / lunch and noticed this place in the plaza of where we take our dry cleaning and our local coffee shop. We are new to the area so we tried it out. Wow. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The food is amazing and the interior was nicely done.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Not tacky and not blah. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It also felt very clean and updated.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The tacos are top notch and we can't wait to go back and try the tortas and other menus items. Ordering was quick and pleasant. Overall it was a great experience.

    This is a great taco spot with really authentic Mexican flavors. Both the flour and corn tortillas are delicious, and the salsas are just as good. I also love that they sell Mexican candies, it's a fun little touch. The service was friendly, and [[HIGHLIGHT]]even though the AC was a bit cold, it didn't take away from the experience at all.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    First time at the establishment,customer service was on point. I ordered 2 breakfast tacos potatoes,eggs,cheese and one shrimp taco! All 3 were amazing,fresh and hot! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Salsa was self serve,tables were clean,fresh smelling atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] This is a hidden gems Overall food and service a 10/5. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Only thing is the inside temperature was a bit warm,maybe the AC was not working,luckily I was the only one in there.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Other than that,the place is amazing!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Enchiladas Suizas
    Justin K.

    Good Mexican food that can satisfy your Mexican craving. Enchiladas suizas - the flavor was good in the chicken and the sauce. The rice was dry so that was disappointing and the enchiladas were slightly smaller than expected. 3.5/5 Vallarta walker fish taco - good crispy catfish (I think) inside and lots of coleslaw. The coleslaw sauce overpowered the taco but I liked its flavor so that was ok for me. 3.5/5 Chilango taco - beef taco with good Mexican flavors not anything special. 3/5 There are three salsas available but none of them are spicy so that was disappointing. They also do not provide any complimentary chips either so I have to dock a star for these two shortcomings.

    Came across this restaurant while looking for street tacos near my new job and I am so thankful I did! People from work were talking about that Cababana place and I removed them from my contacts list, immediately! Luichi and Joesy's street tacos are pretty good, although they only give you five (5) tacos, rather than the six (6) that I usually get from my favorite taco spot in Richmond. If there was another place nearby that gave me six tacos for the same money, I'd be there. One more taco makes a difference! The taste of the onions and cilanro and the way the meat is seasoned makes for a pretty tasty street taco. The side of charro beans was pretty tasty, also. On the first of my two visits, I ordered three menu items (street tacos, chips and salsa, and loaded fries) and I wasn't expecting them to be big portions. Now I see why the guy behind the counter asked, "Is it just for you?" His eyes got big when I replied that it was all for me. LOL. It was my only meal of the day (OMD). The chips and salsa were very tasty, by the way. The restaurant is small, but comfortable if there aren't a lot of people eating. The staff is very friendly and they keep the place clean. My only gripe is that if you ask for salsa, you get about a teaspoon in a little container (see image). Come on, now!

    Stopped in this morning the tacos are great and affordable . They have a great selection of food

    Cute Tex Mex Taco place close to Memorial drive with a taste of Mexico . Love the location easy to get into and out of. They even had Mexican pure vanilla for sale.

    This place is AMAZING!!!! The nachos are incredible. Everything is well priced and the food is sooooo good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's very clean and very fast.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I love the fact it's family run and authentic.

    I shouldn't have waited so long to try this place! I now have a new favorite close to home. First of all, who doesn't love tacos?! But wait... they have breakfast tacos ALL DAY! I love breakfast for dinner! The restaurant is small, but offers plenty of seating, including chairs and tables outside. The interior is bright with vivid colors. They have trinket items for purchase at the register. It reminded me of what you may see in a Mexico City store front. The order taker was very friendly helpful with suggestions. I ordered the chips and salsa, one Pirata (beef, no onions), one egg with sausage and one egg with bacon. Everything was so tasty! The chips were warm and the red salsa was cool with just the right kick. All of the tacos were fresh, delicious and the perfect size. The beef in the Pirata was chopped and had the best flavor. The sausage breakfast taco had cubed sausage with perfectly scrambled eggs and the bacon taco (also with scrambled eggs) was delightful too. I can't review this place without mentioning the salsas. They have a dedicated mini fridge for the 3 different flavors of salsas. You can get as many as you want. I love the "GREEN = HOT" is like the taqueria restaurants. It's hot, but not too hot and the flavor is so good, you won't be able to stop eating it. The "RED = MEDIUM" is what they give you with the chips. The blend has a perfect kick to it. Finally, the "CREAMY CILANTRO = MILD" is just as stated: creamy cilantro goodness! Each one was so good, there's no way I can pick a favorite. I am so excited about my new find! One suggestion I would have for the decision makers of this location: change the music. It doesn't change my 5-star rating, but the tunes didn't match anything in there. The music I heard was like a spa. With the bright colors and fun murals, I would think the music would be a more upbeat tempo. Again, doesn't change the fact that I will be back, but I did notice it was the only thing "out of place", so to speak. Great job, L&J's! You really have a good thing going there! I just can't say enough about this place. I wasn't expecting to be so impressed. LOVE IT and highly recommend!!!!! (side note: I wasn't ready to eat when I brought the items home. I put them in the oven on warm for a couple hours and they were still delicious! Imagine if I would have eaten them as they came off the grill!)

    Left to right: bacon and egg, potato and egg, Mexican egg. The red and green salsa are spicy

    I order tacos through the yelp app for take-out this morning. They have a big menu but since I was ordering breakfast it was small and simple. I ordered three bacon and egg, one potato and egg, and one Mexican egg which were all good. Nothing really special about the tacos in general but you can tell they cut their potatoes by hand as they were not in squares, but French fry like. I would like to see more places cut their potatoes like this. The eggs are fresh and flour tortillas were not soggy. The stand out for me was the green and red salsa which I mixed together to make an amazing spicy salsa. I cannot wait to go back and try the rest of the menu.

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.

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!
