    Went for lunch with some co-workers and this is certainly an unexpected gem. We got the bravo combo and shared, family style. It came with their signature chicken, the salchipapa, and an avocado salad. Service was great, frequently checked in, and split the check without fuss. It's a small and cozy place, nothing particularly fancy. The chicken was extremely tender and juicy, well-seasoned and delicious. The fries were nice and crispy. The sausage didn't add anything in particular besides extra salt. The avocado salad was good as well, something a little healthy amongst everything else. I wish I had opted to try their dessert because it looked yummy.

    Best roasted chicken. Very moist and flavorful. Lots of side options. Didn't really care about the sides. Plantains and yuca are very standard everywhere you go and it wasn't any different here. The green sauce served with the chicken is the bomb. The place was clean, service was pretty fast and food was fresh. Will come back for chicken!

    I come here often. Can't beat their rotisserie chicken and yucca fries and it's priced very reasonably. The even have a lunch menu!

    Ceviche

    Food is very tasty, recommend the ceviche. Service is great, friendly and food came quickly. Ambience is very family friendly.

    Been seeing this place for a while heading to Pearland on 288 freeway so finally decided to check it out. When you walk in, you can order at the counter for to go orders or if dining in, you take a seat at a table and a server comes to take and serve your order. Our server was great and very attentive. They have a pretty extensive menu - chicken, beef, seafood (pictures attached). But I believe their specialty is chicken. My husband and I shared the 1/2 chicken "Mini Combos" for $14.99 and paid $1 extra for all white meat. It comes with 2 sides and we chose Mexican rice and red beans. A picture is attached. Everything had a really good flavor however, the chicken was somewhat dry. I still enjoyed it. They have both a red and green sauce. I tried both and liked them. Overall, great value. They have happy hour. Kind of strange hours, it's on Thursdays and Saturdays from 3-7pm and an all day Monday special. Pic of menu that includes both is attached. They also have lunch specials (menu pic attached). It's a nice airy and clean place. They also have a bar (pics attached). I'm looking forward to trying it again

    Got the M-W lunch special today and it is 5 stars! comes with white or mexican rice and red beans- delicioso. I chose the mexican rice and it was tasty but note it has cilantro for you soap tasters. The chicken breast was so juicy and definitely was marinated with love. Last but not least the waitress was very nice and attentive. Will be going back and often.

    I went and ordered takeout for their Peruvian and Mexican food. They are popular for their rotisserie chicken so I ordered 1/2 chicken with 2 sides (spicy cassava and plantains). I also ordered lomo saltado and alfajores (was fresh). They are all so delicious. The owner, Emma, was nice to explain some of the menu items to me. I'll definitely come back for more.

    Nice addition to the pearland food round up. Definitely a few notches above that dud called Pollo tropical. Service here is AMAZING. Very sweet folks and professional. The inside of the restaurant is clean and cozy. The food...chicken was very good. I still used the green sauce but even without sauce, it was a smash. The pianono dessert was strange to me. Way too dense and sweet. Definitely a diabetics worst nightmare (or dream come true?). The beans were ok. Not very flavorful. But I've noticed a lot of places keep beans mildly seasoned. Not sure y. The cassava fries were piping hot and fresh. But unfortunately, I asked for the spicy ones. Dont be like me. The spicy ones come with a coat of red something. All I tasted was extreme salty. It was actually inedible. One last point...probably call ahead. I waited about 15 or 20 mins for my food because I ordered in house. Not bad. No complaints because food was hot and fresh. But I imagine if it has been a weekend (I went on a Tues I believe and restaurant was emptyish), it would have been closer to a 45min wait. Final grade: Solid B+ I'd definitely go back whenever I am craving some Peruvian chicken.

    Pollo Bravo gets 5 stars from me! They tout their menu as being Hybrid Peruvian food and Mexican food as well. Aiming for healthier food, I loved that the chicken was rotisserie style and that everything was so fresh and delicious. I ended up here randomly leaving a visit in Pearland after my sister there pointed it out as a place she also wanted to try. The Gordos Combo was plentiful for my family of 3 and I will definitely try the one that I now located closer to home! As I briefly waited for my order to be ready, I walked around and checked out the place, it is clean and beautifully decorated showing cultural pieces throughout. There is also a cute small bar area and plenty parking out front. Service was great and the staff was very well organized. Menu is a nice size and I do look forward to trying out other options when I visit again.

The hunger pangs hit and I just happened to be near this place. I've only seen it in passing but haven't really seen much chatter on the local foodie pages on social media or on here. I arrived around the end of breakfast and there wasn't much of a crowd inside. Parking was easy right out front. I was a little confused at the ordering process. Was it counter service or table service? No one really pointed me in the right direction until my waitress Claudia told me to have a seat and she would be helping me. She did an amazing job from start to finish. I was expecting just a taco joint, but they have lots more to offer on their menu. They have gorditas, tostadas, tortas, burritos, quesadillas, burgers, breakfast items, soup and entrees. They also have your usual drinks options along with agua frescas, shakes, juices, margartitas and beers. I was torn between breakfast and lunch so I decided to try both. I went with the dish that has the same name as the restaurant. Tacos Toreados came with 3 tacos with a protein of your choice on a flour tortillas and what makes these different was that they came with grilled onions and mozzarella cheese. I also went with a bacon and egg taco just so I can really judge the place. What I didn't expect was how massive the tacos were going to be. I got mine with pastor and fajitas. It looked more like a tostada with the toppings covering the whole surface of the tortilla. The fajita and pastor was seasoned beautifully and was very tasty. The onions were sauteed just right but I do like raw onions and cilantro on my tacos a little better. The cheese was a nice addition as well. I barely got through two and on the third I just ate the meat. I saved just enough room to try the breakfast taco which was very good. Washed it all down with a Mexican Coke. This place is very close to my house and I will most definitely be back to make my way through their menu.

It's not the new place with mezcal flights and neon signs preaching about tacos being a lifestyle. It's the spot where you sit down, exhale, and realize you've been eating the same enchiladas here since Clinton was president -- and they've tasted right every time. Celaya's isn't chasing trends. They're not reinventing the wheel. They're just making damn good Mexican food the way they've always made it: with consistency, humility, and zero interest in impressing a food critic. Their salsa doesn't come in five variations; it comes in one -- and it's hot enough to remind you you're alive, but not so brutal you won't ask for more. The plates arrive fast, heavy, and exactly as you remember them. Cheese enchiladas drowning in chili gravy that stains your soul in the best way. Puffy tacos with enough crunch to make conversation pause. Refried beans like molten velvet. Rice that's been kissed by chicken stock and time. No deconstructed anything. No fusion confusion. Just food that doesn't need explanation because it's been perfected by repetition, not reinvention. The staff? They know you. Or they will. Names are remembered. Preferences are locked in. If you order something different, they'll check on you twice just to make sure you're feeling alright. This isn't service; this is family surveillance. Décor? Who cares. Probably the same faded murals, same laminated menus, same framed photo of somebody's abuela. And yet it feels more permanent, more rooted, than whatever's opening across town with reclaimed wood and Edison bulbs. The prices? Still fair. Still honest. Still structured around feeding working people, not influencers. You'll leave full, maybe with a little foil-wrapped something for later, and wondering why anyone ever needed more than this. Celaya's isn't a scene. It's not trying to be. It's a refuge. It's a reminder. It's a handshake from the past, still firm, still real.

Even with the huge crowds they get every day of the week, the food remains high-quality, the service stays quick, and the overall dining experiences are consistently satisfying. I think it's admirable that after all these years of coming here since I was a little girl, they've managed to maintain the same level of quality, and if anything, they've only improved. My go-to favorite is the Amazon Wrap with steak. It's always beautifully presented, the steak is perfectly cooked, and the lettuce, tomato, and other toppings keep it light and refreshing instead of heavy. The tortilla strips inside add the perfect crunch to balance what could otherwise be a chewy wrap. I also love drizzling on the complimentary green sauce that comes with the chips or asking for extra Amazon sauce because both pair with the wrap so well. Truly, there is nothing wrong with this dish, and I've successfully put all my friends onto ordering it. While I usually stick to the Amazon Wrap, Gringo's has plenty of other delicious options, including the steak fajitas, the quesadillas, and even a surprisingly good burger. Overall, Gringo's continues to be a comfort spot for my family and me, and it never fails to deliver. If you want reliable Tex-Mex with great service and consistently good food, this is absolutely the place to go.

We were there for a friend's birthday party, and our server kept the chip baskets coming and the drinks topped off regularly. Of the 20 or so people at our table, all orders were hot, fresh and correct. Kudos to the management here! I just wasn't overly impressed with the food. Though the chips were served warm, so too was the salsa. I do not like warmed salsa, as it tends to 'hide' certain flavors. This salsa was roasted and not terrible, but also not great (even had it been served cold). It was boring -- without heat, hints of onion and garlic, and nary a leaf of cilantro. The queso here is average. Not bad in any way, but nothing special. I like that they serve it with a side of fried flour tortillas, which are a guilty pleasure. Finally, the parilla was very good. We don't order these very often, as they are difficult to pull off. This one, however, was done very well. The shrimp as tender as any I've ever had served in a dish like this, and the carnita pieces were also very well executed, along with the beef. Kudos! The flour tortillas were nicely grilled; rice and beans were par for the course. I'm not in Pearland often, but if I come back here, there are some other menu items I would like to try (including entomatadas, which are hard to find). Bottom line: Not bad. Just not anything great. There are other Tex-Mex joints out there that are far better.
