    Spicy Jalapeño Margarita and the Renfro Margarita
    Adrienne C.

    We started off having the Padres Nachos, which was amazing. We went on a Thursday, so the nachos were on HH and so were the margaritas. The food was super quick and the service was excellent. By the time, I finished the appetizer, I was full. The shrimp tacos came, and they did not disappoint! I got the tacos with charro beans. Great place for good Tex mex food!

    Small chicken tortilla soup
    Sabrina P.

    For starters, the salsa was thin and it was difficult to eat it without it dripping off the chip and onto the table, but the flavor was good. Chips were ok. I order chicken tortilla soup often at new restaurants and never found one that I didn't like until Nacho Padres. For starters the small was ridiculously tiny and less than a regular small cup or bowl. My spoon took up the whole cup. There was one slice of chicken and it had a piece of skin or fat on it. The broth was salty and overpowered with a pepper flavor (my guess would be chipotle or abobo). I stopped eating it after a few bites because it was just gross to me. I also split fajitas with my husband and they came out warm, not the nice hot steaming effect you get w freshly grilled fajitas at many places. They were ok, but for the price ($36) for 8 oz, not worth it. There were a few people there for brunch - maybe the brunch is better, but our lunch experience was they the food could be better. If I could give 2.5 I would, but when choosing between a 2 and 3, the food made it closer to 2 for me.

    Ambiance was amazing and service was communicative and speedy. The prices are right for the portions of the food, especially the appetizers. Would come here again!

    Chicken Tortilla Soup
    Matt H.

    We were driving by and thought the place looked pretty cool from the outside. It was a little early for dinner (4pm) but decided to stop anyway. There weren't a ton of people but, like I said, it was early. We were greeted and seated right away. The dining room was very nice and clean, and the music was at a perfect level. Nikki (sp?) was incredible. Very attentive and informative. When she found out it was our first visit she offered to walk through the menu with us and she pointed out both the most popular and her favorite dishes. I had the puffy tacos with rice and charro beans. My wife had the chicken tortilla soup. We split a margarita flight. My wife couldn't stop talking about how much she loved the soup. While the tacos were good, they were VERY messy to eat. I probably wouldn't order those again or, if I did I would just eat them with a fork. The Ben's were fantastic. Great flavor with a bit of spice. The Margrit flight was great. The presentation was fun. The pineapple was my wife's fav while I loved the mango. We will ABSOLUTELY be back to try the fajitas and we will definitely ask for Nikki!!

    The food was excellent as always I actually had a chance to try the portobello fajitas and they did not disappoint. My mom had the "real" fajitas - beef & told me several times how she has been telling everyone that these are the ABSOLUTE BEST FAJITAS ever!!! The service was just as wonderful - we sat over by the bar w Marce as our server. He was great, but we also had multiple other people check in on us. Huge kudos on the service! Also had a chance to see the owner Cisco & chat w the trainer Aliana. Great evening! Always wonderful when mom is

    8 oz beef fajitas

    We went for 1/2 off fajitas on Thursday evening. I ordered mine medium rare. When they came out there was no sizzling hot plate and mine was cooked rare. Granted, I would rather have it under cooked than over so I did not send them back. The flavor was good but the green bell pepper flavor was a little over powering. I ordered a Grey Goose martini and was charged 15.99 plus a 3.99 adder. I'm accustomed to Woodlands pricing but that was an over the top cost. The redeeming factor in my visit was the good service.

    I'm not sure how anyone eats a full meal here without being rolled out of the place. We wondered why everyone was leaving with to-go bags. The riddle was solved when we received our meal- the portions are HUGE! In addition to the portion size, the restaurant has a lot of personality! With witty sayings on the wall, and creative decor, the vibe feels inviting. We tried the spicy pineapple margarita, cucumber mint margarita, poblano queso blanco, taco salad, beef and chicken fajitas, and the tres leches trio. Of those mentioned, the cucumber mint margarita was refreshing, followed by the chicken offered in the fajita chicken. Unfortunately, the tortillas did not feel made in house and the poblano queso blanco had a pudding/baked Brie texture. Offered with chicharron, we instead chose tortilla chips, so it's possible the dish is improved when eaten as intended. Apart from the food, it seems like they're still getting in the flow of things, training and working on offering that 5 star service (lots of mixups and waiting in our service). Give them a little time, I'm sure they'll get there!

    Churros
    Gina N.

    My family and I came here after church for Sunday Brunch, and one thing is clear: this place leans heavily into the "TEX" side of Tex-Mex. The portions were generous, and we really enjoyed the Flauta Tower--it was definitely the highlight of our meal. The tacos were also tasty, but there's room for improvement in the little details that elevate a dish. One thing we all noticed was the absence of limes, which are essential for Tex-Mex dishes, especially tacos. Small touches like a lime wedge could have elevated most of the dishes tbh. Another miss was the lack of spicy options. When I asked for something to add some heat to my tacos, the only option was Cholula--no spicy salsa or peppers, which seemed odd for a Tex-Mex restaurant. For dessert, we ordered the churros, but they fell short of expectations. While the churros themselves were decent, the chocolate sauce was disappointing--it had the consistency of water. As for the service, our server was friendly but seemed a bit forgetful, making multiple trips back and forth to fulfill our requests. While the service wasn't bad, it felt like the staff might still be getting the hang of things. Overall, this place has potential. It's new, seems to be ironing out the kinks. With a few additions/adjustment like limes and offering more spice options--it could become a solid Tex-Mex go-to.

    Our first visit did not disappoint! We shared the Mother Earth bowl with no added protein and the…read morered chile glazed sweet potatoes. Both were delicious. The potatoes had a perfect spice level, coming from someone who does not care for spicy food. The ingredients tasted fresh and clean. I also got the Earl Gray tea- it is delicious. Every employee we interacted with was helpful, pleasant, and gracious- lovely! There is ample seating, some more cozy spots, which I prefer. Really cute decor. Clean. Prompt removal of dishes. I can't wait to come back! Re: sharing these dishes, I don't exactly recommend this, the portions aren't huge. We are on day 38 of fasting and aren't eating much these days, so we were satisfied but not stuffed.

    When we arrived, the clerk at the counter, was clearly irritated at the party ahead of us because…read morethey didn't know what they wanted to order. When we got to the counter, she had a resting bitch face, very transactional looked like she didn't wanna be behind the register. When we received our food, the appetizer was great, the chicken tortilla soup look like they served it from the bottom of the of the pot. The steak looked dry and had no flavor, and the side of fruit was clearly out of a can, the mandarins were old, and mold on the grapes, it looked like something served at an elementary school cafeteria. I've been a customer of Flower Child, different locations and I'm very disappointed with our experience today! I do not recommend this location.
