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.

I had the greatest experience here! I forgot my waiters name but he has beautiful dreads, light…read morecolored eyes(African American male) Hopefully this gets him a raise! He had the best customer service , he was very helpful , with my child. Very friendly, quick with our orders and made it an all around enjoyable experience! The food was hot and fresh! I came around lunch time and the lunch crew are about business! I'll definitely be back to this specific restaurant.

On a rainy Houston day, my parents and I were looking for a lunch option before I drove back to…read moreNorth Texas. They had recently tried Pappadeaux for the first time with a friend and loved it, so Pappadeaux it was. Despite what felt like a small storm outside and it being a weekday lunch time, the inside was relatively busy. We sat at a booth by the window. Our waiter was timely and fast. We ordered off the lunch specials. Not too long and our food came out. What stood out first was the portions. Texas-sized. No problems with that. I got the crawfish combination - crawfish etouffee, fried crawfish, dirty rice. It was extremely delicious. Plenty of crawfish, both of the fried and etoufee variety. Both went well with the rice. The fried crawfish paired well with the tartar and ketchup. The etoufee was creamy and savory. Highly recommend getting it. Additionally, I tried some of my parents' dishes. My dad's mixed seafood grill was delciious, not only the grilled shrimp but the grilled veggies as well. My mom's shrimp po boy was hearty and went well with a cup of shrimp gumbo that came with it. Only negative thing I want to note from our experience is that apparently at Pappadeaux they do have a complimentary bread service. However, we were not offered it at all. We saw some of the other tables get it and I thought it was just something that you had to order. No problem with that. However, I later learned online that it's supposed to just come with your meal like at many other restaurants. I understand wanting to minimize food waste. Though we weren't even presented the option at all. Nonetheless, I'd still say that Pappadeaux is a good restaurant with great quality food. Would not mind coming again.

The broth was delicious and the homemade hot sauce came on the side had a wonderful taste (and blistering heat - a little goes a long way. The thin sliced meat was not to my taste, but that is purely personal preference - I could tell it was a good product, just not my thing. I thought the noodles had a firmer, more al dente texture that was new to me, but I expect that was my lack of prior experience. The "Japanese BBQ" was an experience. It took a bit to get the hang of it. The food was all very fresh and beautifully served, and the dipping sauces were tasty. In hindsight, I would probably have enjoyed the all you can eat sushi more, but I am happy I tried it. The restaurant has a laid back feel. Simple decor of umbrellas and lanterns. There is no sense of being rushed. My only suggestion would be to have some tables without the gas hibachi setup as that limits leg room (playing footsie is right out). I've returned twice. I highly recommend it.

While there's nothing extraordinary about the kind of business Taro specializes in (#1), the…read morelocation alone is worth noting. Situated directly across the street from NRG Stadium along Kirby, it's ideally placed to capture the slice of tourists and locals. Considering the wide selection of Japanese-inspired fare, the potential is there -- but unfortunately, the food is both overpriced and mediocre, much like their predecessor (#2). Things I appreciated: * Interior: I am fairly confident that one could show up with 20 people from a football game across the street and find a seat. There's enough seating in here to house an army and they've done a good job with the ambiance to keep the appearance of a faux-premium vibe. * Service: While they were generally slow on a few things, most of the staff members I've encountered were super pleasant and very transparent about what / what not to order. I appreciated this immensely. * Yakitori: No exaggeration, this is one of the better AYCE yakitori experiences I've had. The chicken and beef yakitori combos (#3) had great presentation, were juicy, and full of flavor. This was the only item where I wanted multiple orders. Things that are not great: * The price: This. My first time coming here it was $31 (Or ... $30.99), but the last time was $50. With that kind of a steep hike, you'd think they'd offer uni, toro, and some kind of premium yakitori, but too hard to justify considering their lineup of food and drink. * The name: Previously, it was simply "Taro Japanese Restaurant." As of earlier this year, it has become "Taro VIP BBQ SEAFOOD HOTPOT & BAR." * The drinks: I'm stoked they have an alcohol license and can serve wine, beer, and cocktails. But the cocktails are on another level bad. The Mexican Mule ($14.50) was too tinge too sour, the Taro Red ($14.50), Blue Hawaii ($13.50) and Tokyo Rose ($13.50) are way too sweet. Even the powdered milk teas and fruit teas felt very generic. * The sushi: I can handle low quality sushi, but there was some level of funk for almost all the salmon, tuna, and yellowtail that I ordered. It was masked a bit better in the rolls, but at some point, I couldn't order anymore. * The ramen: While I think offering any kind of ramen is a plus in the AYCE scenario, the ramen here is understandably mid. All of the tonkotsu choices are the best bet, but this is a hard pass for even folks that love noodle soup. * The spelling: While I'm typically forgiving of most menu mishaps, the fact one is being charged $50 and they can't seem to spell shoyu, fried, tartare, etc. correctly is kind of mind blowing. * Most of their baked sushi items: This includes their tataki, baby octopus, mussels, ankimo, and tartare. This is likely due to the seafood quality issue that I had alluded to earlier. * The crawfish: Skip. Don't bother ordering, even if it's peak crawifsh season since it tastes like something more from a Chinese buffet than anything resembling the kinds of crawdads from Louisiana. For a place that boasts being run by culinary graduates trained under a famous Japanese chef (#5), it's incredibly disappointing to such such variety paired with such flawed execution. One could argue Taro is more style than substance, but I hope they find a way to correct their course. ____________ (#1) All you can eat Japanese restaurant where everyone speaks Mandarin. (#2) Akashi: https://www.yelp.com/biz/akashi-houston-7 (#3) Calling all carnivores: This is your moment. (#4) "Shyoyu" "Fired" "Tartar" (#5) Takeshi Kaneko? Okay then.
