A late night dinner with coworkers. We were immediately greeted by the server and seated. The best thing was the food So I'll be back soon. The sausage, beef and refried beans were delicious but the tortillas were so good I could eat them alone and just enjoy. The place was clean and looked like a nice authentic Mexican restaurant. I look forward to next time.

Not located in the best area of town. Had a homeless person on sidewalk by the entrance that mgr had to run off..think he actually ended up going to bathroom on sidewalk. With that said inside was nice and clean and staffed well. We got our drinks and chips right away and server kept checking on us. Group of 4 and place was somewhat busy but service was really good Ordered Pozole, Menudo and birra tacos and a shrimp dish. All food was hot and fresh and tasted really good. The only thing I will give a bad review is the elote. It was boiled and must of sat in water to long so it was mushy and water logged. Corn can be boiled but removed right away then put on grill and get some char on it for flavor Also no lime added to the mayo and no chile on the outside. Very mild and bland. Needs a major upgrade to make really good. Do not suggest even though my pic looks good. All other food was great. This place is worth a try.

Ruchi's Mexican Grill absolutely delivered on flavor and satisfaction with my recent to-go order!!! I had the Burrito Supreme with mixed chicken and steak and WOW. The filling was perfectly seasoned, generous, and packed with that bold, crave-worthy flavor you'd expect from a place that knows what it's doing. My only critique? The tortilla. It wasn't quite cooked through, so it started falling apart as I ate, which was a bit messy. That said, the taste was still on point, I still thoroughly enjoyed it. If that tortilla had been grilled just right... I mean, we'd be talking next level legendary. Endless possibilities! The shrimp tacos were a definite standout, juicy, fresh, and full of flavor. The chicken tacos were decent, though not as memorable. The side of beans ewww. Even though it was a to-go order, the service was fast and friendly, and the vibe inside was warm and inviting. You can tell this is a spot that locals love for good reason. I'll absolutely be back and next time, I'm hoping that burrito comes with a toasted tortilla and a side of greatness. *SIDE NOTE They stay open till 2 AM. This used to be a great after our spot to grab a bite to eat after being hungry or drunk after the club lol. Not sure if it still is but kind of cool to know.

Service is okay. If they get even a little busy they kind of forget about you. Overall food was good for very late night eating when you're in a pinch and want Mexican. Large portions, tons of tortillas. The elote was my favorite. Also the soups were very soothing on a cold night. The taquitos are so dry it was eating like stale tortillas wrapped in very dry chicken jerky. I could barely chew it. The nachos were also topped with pretty dry chicken. Tough to eat.

Strawberry Margarita
Cynthia E.

Pleasantly surprised that this place was not far from me! Loved the flour tortilla with my taco. It tasted very fresh. I ordered the barbacoa and pierna taco. The barbacoa was super juicy and delicious. The pierna was kind of dry, but I've never had this type of taco so I wasn't sure what to expect. We also had chips and salsa which came with the meals and I ordered a strawberry margarita, which was great! The servers were attentive and there was a very relaxed vibe. It's open late too, so it's great if you want a late Mexican snack. Will most likely be back!

Mixed plate, chile relleno
Mari T.

Wow. We have been here 2 days and already have been here 2 times! The fresh chips and salsas (2 kinds: red/orange and avocado) are AMAZING. First night we got chile relleno plate and a mixed plate (cheese enchilada, chicken enchilada and beef taco). Fantastic! Soooo fast and soooo delicious! Friendly service and so reasonably priced! Then we went again for breakfast. He got a beef gordita and I got huevos ala mexicana (jalapenos, tomatoes and onion scramble with potatoes and beans). Can't wait to go back and try more things! The menu is so extensive we said you could def come back every day of the month and have something new! He still needs to try the flan (his fave) but every time he is too full for dessert!

Came here on a Wednesday evening, maybe 25 percent capacity, the place seem authentic filled with culture and history. Ordered the Birria quesadillas, and fried fish. Overall it was ok, nothing special, fairly priced, and excellent chip and salsa. Fish was good, rice was alittle dry

Street Corn

This place is bomb. The food is always delicious, and authentic. The service could be a little better but nonetheless it's a great late night dinner spot Ambiance is AUTHENTIC MEXICAN

Chorizo con Huevos con Chorizo
Cecilia O.

We are visiting Houston this weekend and we're in the mood for some authentic Mexican food. Everyone was very welcoming as soon as we walked in. I order the chorizo con huevos plate and my bf order the Menudo. Both were delicious and great on flavor. Definitely recommend to try for some real Mexican food

Shrimp enchiladas
Keandra P.

I love me some TEX MEX. Service was great. Went with a big group for lunch Food-I had the shrimp enchiladas. Large portion. Super cheesy, which I love. Taste was fair, not amazing, but hits the spot. Quick and easy lunch or dinning place, reasonable prices.

the front of the restaurant
Jeannie W.

Out front this place has plenty of parking, and is conveniently located right off the freeway. Walking in we were greeted and seated right away. This place was busy but we didn't have to wait to be seated and the food didn't take long either. I ordered the pancakes which comes with 3, and eggs with 2 pieces of bacon. The pancakes are nice and fluffy and came with warm melted butter and maple syrup. My bf ordered juevos con tocino y papas y frijoles. Both orders were delicious and you can't beat the price point. For 3 of us the bill was 24 bucks. Staff were friendly and attentive, and place was clean and had plenty of seating. Would definitely recommend this place if you're in the area.

Never had a bad experience here. I always get the tripa tacos and if I could, I'd eat it everyday all day for the rest of my life.

The atmosphere was great with great music. They're seemed to be some type of drama playing on the TV. We ordered margaritas that came out quick and we're very tasty. The green salsa was spicy and delicious. I had a pierna taco and a chicharron taco. Very delicious! The service was also splendid and we did not have to wait long for out tacos.

The world is full of Mexican restaurants…read more Most are some version of Tex-Mex in a family-friendly, relatively similar environment. Nothing wrong with that. Mexican Sugar breaks that mold completely. This is the most legit, wonderful, bougie, over-the-top Mexican restaurant I have ever been to, and I mean that as the highest compliment possible. This was my second trip to Mexican Sugar. The first was in Grapevine. After this visit to the Montrose location, I have officially decided that when I am in Texas, I will seek these places out. They are that good. First, dress up. I doubt there is an actual dress code, but this is not the place where I am showing up looking like I just finished mowing the yard. Come here to be seen. Come here to show out a little. The place is beautiful and has that kind of vibe. Second, the drinks. Hell yes. Fancy, creative, excellent, and impressive enough for even the person who has seen every ridiculous cocktail presentation imaginable. And then there is the food. My God, the food. The salsa and queso are legit AF. The street corn is heaven in a bowl. Get several orders. I am serious. One is not enough. The carne asada was amazing. Honestly, I could keep going, but at some point this review is just going to become me yelling about how much I love Mexican Sugar. I LOVE MEXICAN SUGAR. OK, YOU GET THE IDEA. WHY AM I YELLING? BACK TO THE REVIEW.... Service was excellent too. The place is huge and was absolutely packed, but our server stayed attentive and the food came out surprisingly quickly. Make a reservation. Park in the nearby garage. Dress nice. Order the drinks. Get the street corn. Then get more street corn. Who is ready for another trip to Houston? I'll book the reservation at Mexican Sugar.

Our server was really nice and did a good job keeping up with such a large table, especially with the restaurant being so busy. The restaurant was pretty packed and definitely loud, but it made for a fun, lively atmosphere for a birthday celebration. The food was solid, and the drinks were definitely a highlight--they were fun and had some creative options. Overall, I'd say it's a good place for a group celebration if you're looking for good food, fun drinks, and a lively atmosphere!

Honestly I am fairly disappointed in this place as I had been anticipating it for the longest time…read more I was able to snag reservations about 1 month in advance for a Saturday dinner. The restaurant is located in a quiet area in West University with a good amount of street parking. The restaurant itself is decorated with a lot of character and personality and they have seating inside and outside on their covered patio. Don't get me wrong, the service here is amazing. The servers are very attentive, and I appreciate the chefs coming out to explain their dish. However, the dishes themselves were basic and lacked specialty. My boyfriend and I got the Chef's Tasting Menu. I got the drink pairing. As a Chef's tasting menu, I would expect the restaurants' most precious meals. The short rib was dry and the rest of the other dishes were unmemorable. The only dish that truly caught my eye was their Tres Leches, but this was given on the house as it was our anniversary. The drink pairing I got was well worth and all of the drinks were flavorful and paired well. Overall, I'd hope that their chef's tasting menu would improve as they rotate their dishes. I would try to come back to give it another chance.

Taco Tuesday at Don Leti's and BABYYYYY, they understood the assignment!…read more Being from LA, we're a little picky when it comes to Mexican food. We know good Mexican food, so our expectations were definitely high! We arrived and had about a 10-minute wait for a table, which wasn't bad at all. They also offer complimentary valet parking (tips suggested), which is always a nice little perk! Our waiter, Alonzo, was great! Friendly, attentive, and made sure we were taken care of the entire time. Now let's get into these drinks! We ordered the Henny Margaritas, and when I tell you those drinks were DRINKING! By the time I finished mine, I was only operating with ONE eye! They were not playing around with the Hennessy! We started with the Surf & Turf Queso, and OMG, it was soooo good! It came with both tortillas and chips, but personally, I preferred the tortillas. Something about scooping up that cheesy goodness with a warm tortilla just hit different! For my entree, I ordered the Combination Plate because I'm the type of girl who wants a little bit of EVERYTHING! I chose the Al Pastor Taco, Chicken Enchiladas, and Carne Asada Quesadilla. My husband went with the Birria Sampler Platter. Let me tell you, EVERYTHING was delicious! The portions were HUGE! We honestly could've ordered one plate and shared it because it was that much food. Needless to say, we left with leftovers! Between the delicious food, strong margaritas, generous portions, and great service from Alonzo, Don Leti's definitely earned our approval! And coming from two LA folks who take their Mexican food seriously, that's saying something! Would we come back? ABSOLUTELY! But next time, we might share a plate... although knowing us, we'll probably still order everything!

I ordered a surf and turf burrito, and for 25$ I expected a better tasting burrito…read more I dont know if that's how the burrito is supposed to come but mine only included meat cheese and rice. The menu stated it would come with cheese, sour cream, lettuce and tomato. Maybe it was just so busy I got the wrong food.

I had the pick-two lunch deal and opted for a crispy beef taco and cheese enchilada. All pick-two lunch deals are served with rice, refried beans, and guacamole salad. We also split an order of the chile con queso. First, before you even order, they drop off salsa and a basket of chips, which was great. We did end up finishing the entire basket with the chile con queso that we ordered. The chile con queso was so good, exactly what I wanted - and also exactly what I want whenever I think of queso. Excellent. The crispy taco was really, really good. Think childhood taco Tuesdays, but done better. The meat was so flavorful and my taco was huge. My friend's chicken flautas were good and my husband's chicken verde enchilada was also really good. Excellent flavors.

4/5 Stars | Delicious food, great vibes, but those PRICES?!…read more As a girlie who LOVES to eat and has no problem spending money on amazing food, Toca Madera definitely had me questioning some of these prices! I appreciate fine dining, beautiful ambiance, and a luxury experience, but WHEW! Maybe it's because I travel to Europe often, where I can practically buy two bottles of wine for the price of one glass here, but some of these prices felt like a reach. Let's start with the $44 truffle mac and cheese. FORTY-FOUR DOLLARS FOR A SIDE?! At that point, the mac and cheese better be the main character, come with its own reservation, and pay a portion of my mortgage. LMAO! I wanted to try it, but respectfully passed. Now, let's talk FOOD because they definitely know what they're doing in that kitchen! Fried Calamari: 10/10. WICKED delicious! I'm extremely picky about calamari, and they absolutely nailed it. Easily one of my favorites! Passion Fruit Fire Shots: 10/10. Of course, we had to try the trending fire shots! Delicious and such a fun addition to the experience. Salmon: My entrée, although I originally wanted the scallops. That changed REAL QUICK when I learned it was $59 for FOUR scallops. FOUR?! My bio literally says I'm a big back at heart. I came to EAT! For that price, I personally couldn't justify the portion. Sea Bass Tacos: My husband loved these! Generously sized with a nice spicy kick, but nothing overwhelming. Cilantro Lime Rice: 10/10. SO GOOD! We both ordered it, but honestly could've shared one side. Brown Butter Cake: 100/10. BABYYYY! This dessert deserves its own spotlight. Absolutely delicious! I'd genuinely return just for this cake. Might even attempt recreating it at home! Now, here's why I'm giving four stars. We were celebrating our nine-year wedding anniversary, and while the service was friendly and attentive, the dining experience felt rushed. It was very much, "Ready to order? Ready for your next course? Ready for dessert?" And I'm over here like, can a girlie enjoy her husband and her wine for a second?! Maybe European dining has spoiled me, but I appreciate taking my time, enjoying conversation, and savoring each course. Especially at this price point, I want to enjoy the experience without feeling like we're on a schedule. Then came the awkward anniversary dessert situation. We ordered the brown butter cake, but they brought out a brownie with ice cream that said "Happy Anniversary." Naturally, we assumed it was for us and started eating it. Our waitress realized the mistake and actually took it away from us MID-BITE! Having worked in the serving industry, I personally would've let the guests finish it, especially since the mistake wasn't ours. It was just awkward and unnecessary. And considering we were still charged for our anniversary dessert, the whole situation felt even stranger. For a restaurant positioned as luxury dining, a small complimentary anniversary dessert or champagne would've been a thoughtful touch. Not something I expect, but those little gestures elevate an experience. Also, this restaurant is DARK. And I mean dark as hell! Beautiful, sexy ambiance, but you might need a flashlight for that menu. I also witnessed drinks being spilled on guests at two different tables, so that was interesting! My final thoughts Food? Absolutely delicious! Ambiance? Beautiful, trendy, and definitely a vibe. Service? Friendly, but the pacing and attention to certain details could improve. Pricing? Definitely on the extreme side for what you're getting. For two people, we spent over $300, just FYI! Would I return? Yes, but preferably with a larger group so we could order different dishes and sides to share and experience more of the menu. I wish I could give Toca Madera 4.5 stars because the food deserves recognition. But between the pricing and a few service moments, I can't quite justify five. At the end of the day, I don't mind paying for luxury dining, but there's a difference between paying for quality and paying for the hype. Come for the food, stay for the vibes, and make sure your wallet has eaten before you arrive! Overall, a lovely anniversary dinner with some seriously delicious food, just a few things I wish had been different!
