    What city am I in?!?!
    Timothy C.

    Gem. Ya know Anahuac is in the middle of no where. Just crazy. It felt like I was lost in country. Nopalitos though had great food. Fajitas were solid. Great portions. Queso dip solid! Talking about stopping up the pipes though. Ordered to go food during this wonderful freeze. I normally wouldn't have driven this far since I live in uptown. Definitely worth it though. I would go back. Prices are amazing btw. I usually dine in galleria and dinner here is normally about 150.00 easy. That's for a family of three! But there at Nopalitos it was 100.00. That was for a family of 8! Great job overall. Thank you for being open during the freeze. I was getting tired of BBQ!

    This is what the place looks like.

    Walking in, you can tell its going to be a great time. Loved how the place was decorated. Curious…read moreabout Mexican Cajun combo we had to try it! I loved the fried green tomatoes with a sauce that almost tasted like chuy's ranch, but it came with a creamy bacon that was good and reminded me of potato soup. My "top shelf" margarita was only $2 more but came with an extra shot. The boudin balls were amazing flavor, nice & moist cooked perfectly. I ordered the fish basket with 5 pieces of fish and bought enough home to have it for lunch out of the air fryer the next day. Husband had the ahi tuna & said it was wonderful flavor. We arrived hungry & left happy with enough lunch for the next day. Great find and will eat again! Joy, was our awesome server to be sure to request her for the best service you could ask for!

We found out when he brought the check. Tartar sauce was almost pure sour cream. We asked for different one. When I opened container it was obvious it was already used. We ordered beignets. They resembled dinner rolls and came hard and half frozen. Manager not very friendly about our concerns but adjusted the fish and blamed the server. The same manager was close by because he took very good care of his family at the table next to ours. Won't be back.

    After a full morning of birding along the Texas Gulf Coast south of Winnie with a group of members…read morefrom the Kingwood Photography Club, we were all hungry and so glad we stopped into Tia Juanita's before our drive back to Houston! You can't miss it, the brightly painted exterior with the name of the restaurant in big letters along the roof is impossible to miss. We arrived at around 1:15 so the usual lunch crowd had thinned out and we got a table for the 8 of us right away. Our server took drink orders while we all checked out the menu. Tia Juanita's Fish Camp serves a mix of Cajun/TexMex and great seafood all rolled into one! While we were tempted to order an appetizer of fried alligator balls, we opted to just proceed with lunch as we hoped to be ahead of early rush hour traffic back in Houston. I ended up trying a cup of the Seafood Gumbo, it was perfectly made with a decent amount of shrimp and other seafood, nicely flavored gumbo broth and a small amount of rice to pull it all together. After that I had the Shrimp Quesadillas. Other members of our group got fish or fish tacos, seafood enchiladas and other tasty things and everyone agreed the food was great with large portions. You want seafood? Well they don't skimp on the seafood in your order, it's virtually popping out of your tacos! Our server was great and took care of each of us, when she brought out the separate checks she delivered them to each person correctly and then returned credit cards to each without a mistake. The restaurant is brightly decorated, hardly a square inch of free space on the walls! This place is definitely worth the trip or pulling off of the freeway as you drive by.

    We enjoyed our first visit to Tia Juanita a couple of years ago, so decided to visit again on a…read morerecent road trip. The place has a very kitschy atmosphere, which makes it fun. The place was pretty full the 2 times we visited recently, even at 5:30 pm. The first time we ended up being seated near the entrance to the rest room, so there was a continuous stream of people going by yesterday. No Bueno. We started with drinks, and ordered chips and salsa. Yes, they charge for this, but the chips are really good. On our first visit this time I ordered a blackened fish po boy combo, which was a half sandwich, fries, and choice of gumbo. My husband ordered a roast beef po boy with fries and potato salad. I love a good gumbo. The cup of seafood gumbo that came with my meal had plenty of shrimp and fish, but the roux bordered on burned. My sandwich was overly salty, but the fries were excellent. I had peach sweet tea, which was very refreshing. My husband enjoyed his beef po boy. It came with dipping sauce. There was no skimping on the amount of meat in his sandwich. On our 2nd visit this trip we asked to be seated in a quiet area. It was much better. We had salads... grilled chicken for him, taco salad for me. We really enjoyed our meals. If we return to Winnie, we will give Tia Juanita another try. But we'll be sure to insist on being seated away from the rest rooms.

    The sign near the road is easy to miss, but the place is right next to Hampton Inn, not far south of I-10

    This place was a pleasant surprise and a breath of fresh air for downtown Broadway, in Winnie TX…read more.. most of the shops on this old Main Street have been closed for years so it's good to see it starting to blossom again...speaking of blossoms one can't help but notice the beautiful mandaville (sp.?) vines putting on a show in their festive painted Mexican pots as you approach the entrance and the very smooth Mexican cantina (that I wasn't expecting) as I entered but definitely made me feel like an Icy margarita or pina colada could be enjoyed there... you pass through it and on to the modest but well appointed dinning area with the kitchen behind it... now the food just tops it all off by being fresh, and what seems to be all hand made...the corn tortillas that wrapped my beef enchiladas where so fresh and moist that they made you want to eat the tortillas just by themselves... I have only once had corn tortillas that were like that... and the charro beans weren't overly seasoned but were soft and you could taste the bean itself... and the Spanish rice was the same way lightly seasoned but moist and you could taste the rice's flavor... the entire staff was bright, friendly and energetic and the food was served very promptly... I translated the name and it means "the casserole" in English and when I asked the waitress about the name she said it is also the name of an area in Mexico where they are from...I'm sure these girls will have a successful business... So keep up the good work I give them a big two thumbs up!
