    Rice Pudding
    Melodi D.

    Woah!!! I tried Raizes for the first time last weekend, and I had such an incredible experience. The restaurant looks unassuming--the strip mall was pretty dead around the time we came (8 pm), the sign was flickering, and there was no one else in the restaurant. But we were not deterred. As soon as we came in, we were greeted with a smile. The menu is fairly small, but it still had so many great options. We ended up ordering the Enchiladas Suizas and the Enfrijoladas. Both were incredible--so flavorful and rich. We also received a complementary rice-based soup before the entree, and a complementary rice pudding after. I also loved both of those so much. Overall, I highly recommend. Probably some of the best Mexican food I've had, and when combined with friendly staff, quick service, and great prices, you can't beat it!

    Bean and cheese tacos

    This is a an authentic gem of a place, y'all. My brother recommended this restaurant and he didn't disappoint. We stopped by an early morning, and our breakfast was authentic Mexican, full of flavor, and at pleasantly large portions for the price. I got simple bean and cheese breakfast tacos, and they were large, packed tortillas - they didn't hold back. Same with my husband's, he commented that his chorizo and egg taco was great portion and not oily, which chorizo typically is. He loved their menudo, and couldn't stop raving about the flavor - and this is a rarity for him. On the way out I noticed they have their own blend of coffees and they even sell it, how awesome is that! The gentleman who took care of us was fantastic from beginning to end, and something about his service reminded me of home in the best of ways. This truly feels like one of those places I will happily share the word on so more people try this place out. This is a great hole in the wall, and the ratings are a big tell - it's a must try and we cannot wait to be back.

    Best Authentic Mexican Food in Texas!!! Their menu is simple yet so damn flavorful! We ordered the Chilaquiles with Arrachera Breakfast Plate and the Raízes Classic Breakfast Plate. So much food for such an incredible price coming from someone who is from Miami we're all the food is pretty pricey everywhere you go. The service was lovely the older gentleman was very informative and helpful. The ambiance is very homey home cooked meals. Highly recommend to anyone :)

    Went here because a friend of ours recommended them to us because their food was good and sauces were excellent. We stop by on a Tuesday for lunch and it was quite busy for a small shop. The service was good and the food didn't take too long to come out. I thought their dishes were ok. The meat dishes didn't have much flavor but it was very tender. Sauces helped a bit but we want to come back and give them another try on different menu items. The queso and chips tasted kind of bland and water down. Best item was their broccoli and zucchini soup. It was delicious. We will be back to support again.

    Alhambras

    Love this place. We recently went to Chunks for a burger next door ( quite good) and noticed Raize's. After look it up and seeing great reviews we popped in for lunch in a Sunday. Yum! The staff is very sweet and the food was quite authentic homestylye Mexican. They served a lovely soup (zucchini cream I think). We ordered empanadas which was served with an incredible sauce. I had the Alhambras and my husband had something I can't pronounce let alone spell haha but was basically chicken enchiladas with a bean sauce, quite spicy, which he loved. The different agua frescas looked divine but we made the rookie mistake of ordering iced tea (great but we didn't look at the drink menu). We will definitely return.

    First time here with the family. Location is small but cute. Super friendly staff, very attentive and welcoming. The food was nice and hot, big portions as well.

    Omelette plate

    I have been coming here for decades, and this place never disappoints. Great quality, good people, fairly priced.

    The service is always superb here. Im not sure if he is the owner or the manager, but he always always has a smile on his face. The frescas are sooo good. My cousin and I came for a late breakfast today.

    Mole Enchiladas were tasty, sauce is very nutty, however. The three sauces had chile levels and delish. Try the horchata.

    We've lived very close to this restaurant, and always thought it looked like just another Mexican…read morerestaurant and never tried it. Then I saw a short recommendation (with about a dozen likes) on another neighborhood site, and we decided to try it out. Now we've been there several times, and everything I've tried is outstanding, and the rest of my party wants to keep returning to try new things. And maybe that's especially noteworthy. Usually I go to a place and find something I like, and that's the item I get for that place. But El Fogon is 3 for 3 on perfection so far. Our first trip was a Thursday night and they have the poblano pepper fajita special for 2 on Thursday nights. The salsa is not runny, it's not ketchupy, it's not too mild or too hot -- it just has you enjoying it so much that before you know it you have to ask the waiter to bring more bowls. I won't say anything's super spicy, but it's all super flavorful. I've had the fajitas with beef and bacon. Then I had the Cameron brocheta (bacon wrapped jumbo shrimp with Monterrey jack cheese & jalapeño. The third time, I had ceviche, and they're very generous with the serving size. We're going back tonight -- the fourth time in two weeks -- and I have to try the nachos. And I still haven't had my favorite Mexican plate that I always have everywhere ... Chile relleno. And even their beans and rice are spectacular and better than maybe anywhere else. And I've had the peach margarita each time. It's very nice, though I have another spot I still like better. I always like peach, but I'm tempted to try their blackberry jalapeño margarita, or their watermelon mint. Or the pineapple rita. Or maybe tonight the mango habanero. I regret that it too so long for us to try El Fogon, but now that we've tasted how fabulous it is, we're catching up.
