Want to have some excellent street tacos without stepping foot in Tijuana? Well, you're in luck! Tacos El Pariente es my bueno y delicioso. And that's the extent of my Spanish. Seriously, I tried this place because I stopped to take a work call in the parking lot. When the call wrapped up, I looked up and saw this place. So...I went in and ordered. The tacos came out quickly along with 3 sauces. The light color one was really spicy, but the spice was not long lasting. The others were very mild. Now the tacos. Ay ay ay, they were outstanding. Nestled in the scrumptious corn tortillas was the perfect balance of meet and toppings. Marry these with the tacos and life becomes good. To the Birria - I have a food crush on you. Sorry I ate you so fast, but you were awesome. The staff is very friendly and came out to visit to check on h to r food quality. Ambiance-wise, there is plenty of seating and the place is clean. They had a Spanish concert playing on the TV. So if you want to "elbows up, side to side" - just go with the music! If you like tacos - aka - if you're a human in Texas - go check this place out. Stay hungry, my friends.... read more

Taco El Pariente - Quick, Tasty, and Friendly Tried the Burrito Pariente with adobada--it comes stuffed with fries, which is fun, but overall not my favorite. The Chilaquiles Rojos were the real star: spicy, flavorful, and even better with an egg and asada on top. Ordered a cheese quesadilla for my son (no kids menu, but this worked great). Big portion and kid-approved. Horchata was decent--fountain style, not homemade. Clean spot, fast service, and super friendly staff. Great for a casual lunch. I'll be back to try the tacos and that chilaquiles burrito next! read more

We ordered takeout and tried the beef, chicken, and pork tacos. We were really excited after reading so many glowing reviews, but unfortunately, it was very disappointing. The tacos were bland and dry. You'd think the sauces would be a saving grace but even they lacked flavor. Adding salt and a squeeze of lime couldn't even save them. The portions were generous, which we appreciated, but overall the food just didn't meet our expectations. read more

Handmade tortillas are truly handmade and the tacos were filled with a good amount of meat. The place is super clean and the staff is very nice. Glad to have a good taco place near by. I will definitely be back. read more

El Pariente Tacos & Grill - Asada Tacos and a Birria Quesadilla - Mexican Near Me - Tomball, Texas

I stopped in the other day to try this new taco place on Kuykendahl. Ordered the Asada Fries and a jamaica agua fresca. The dish was good, and was prepared quickly. All the good things were there, plenty of steak, plenty of fries, plenty of guacamole. But next time I would try something else, not because it was bad, it's just not as good as the Burrito District version of this dish. The steak is quite lean, which is fine, but it didn't have much flavor from marinate or seasoning. They gave me three salsas to try with it. The red and pico salsas were ok but on the sharp/sour side for me. They also have a creamy red salsa (maybe chipotle?) that really packs a punch. Not what I expected, but now you know and I can recommend it if you like heat. The fries were fine, done properly, but not as good as the breaded fries that Burrito District uses with this. The jamaica was fine, not a large serving but enough and it was a good representation. Service was prompt and polite. The restaurant is very spare, little decoration, but very clean and comfortable, there was a good crowd. The men's room was clean and ready. I would try other items, maybe their specials, next time. read more

If you're looking for authentic Mexican tacos, you have to check out this local gem. The tortillas are made fresh and the flavors took me right back home. It's rare to find food that tastes like something your mom would make, but this place really blew me away. The quality is on another level. Everything is fresh, the ingredients are amazing, and the meat had zero fat. We tried a few different things on the menu and honestly, this is easily one of the best taco spots I've been to in The Woodlands. You can really feel the love behind the food and the whole experience. Please go check it out " tacos el pariente" and support. You won't regret it. Go see Pedro and treat yourself to something truly authentic. https://www.instagram.com/tacoselparientetx?igsh=enp5dW85dGd4dXYx read more

After one bite I turned my car off and went right back and ordered 6 more tacos LMAOOOO the burrito was bomb as well. They give you a really good size. I'll be back read more
