    Asada tacos with onion cilantro guacamole and salsa

    El Pariente Tacos and Grill is hands down one of the best taco spots around! The food is always fresh flavorful and made to order. The staff is friendly and welcoming and provides excellent customer service every time I visit. The restaurant is clean and the prices are very reasonable for the quality of the food. If you're looking for authentic delicious tacos and great service, I highly recommend El Pariente Tacos and Grill

    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!

    Asada Tacos and a Birria Quesadilla

    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.

    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

    Love coming here any chance I get. From the outside, it's an unassuming spot in a strip center, but…read morestep inside and it's an absolute delight. The hospitality is casual, while also warm, and accommodating. When they first opened, you could walk in and get a table almost anytime. These days, I recommend calling ahead because they've become deservedly busy--and I'm so happy to see it. The enmoladas are a standout, the salsas are fantastic, and the alambre is my personal guilty pleasure. I also love that mezcal is offered alongside the tequila selections in their cocktails. This is not Tex-Mex. The menu draws primarily from the culinary traditions of Mexico City and Puebla. Mandi Cocina has become a place I'm always excited to return to.

However, today, instead of leaning into a familiar go to, and after passing by driving on the parkway without giving them a second glance, I decided to double back and grab a takeout order from Mandi Cocina Mexicana. In a sea of Tex Mex, Mexican Food sounded like a refreshing alternative. And although the shopping strip was unassuming, the interior floors were concrete and the booths dated, the energy around dinner time, antique decor, Mexican tile work and smiles of the servers had my mouth watering in anticipation of trying the food. The food itself was fine. I can't say that the cuisine stood out any more than other competitors, but then again we only tried a few dishes. Specifically, my husband found the quesadillas to be standards, and I found the fajita meat to be juicy, but the meat, onions and peppers lacking the sear and char you'd expect from the dish. Nevertheless, due to the customer service I'll be back to try their additional dishes.

Service was fantastic/friendly, with the owner and server stopping by frequently to check on us or just have a friendly chat. Food consisting of Mixed Fajitas for 3 (Beef, Chicken, Carnitas) was the best we have tasted. Sizzling, flavorful, tender meat, fantastic blistered Jalapeños (Toreados), and grilled onions, served with four tortillas. Quantities were ample and the complimentary chips, Salsa (2 kinds), and Queso (2 kinds) were warm and tasty! The whole meal set us back $82, including taxes and tip. Overall, a thoroughly satisfying experience - our favorite place going forward! Do visit - you won't be disappointed!

    Drove here after reading and hearing about the great food being served…read more It is a clean, nice place. Small but friendly atmosphere. Margaritas were not great and had little flavor but still pricey. I had a hibiscus flavored one. It had a shot of red juice/liquid poured into the center of the frozen margarita. It didn't taste like anything. not sweet or sour? very bland for a place that has Margaritas in its name! We ordered fajitas for two. Fajitas consisted of a piece of fajita meet over a plate of onions. No bell peppers to be found. Taste was bland, no seasoning detected. Salsa was very mild, watery with lots of onions. No real taste. Side rice and beans were okay, but nothing special. Smal scoop of guacamole was added. Flour tortillas were good. Meat was tender but very chewy. Had very little flavor and a small serving for two. Basically, it was hardly enough to make 2 tacos each. Meat and onions only. Cost was $48.00? Check your bill before paying, ours rang up at a higher price on the bill. They corrected it after we asked about it. But we had to show them the menu to prove our point. Overall, this place has potential. After so many good reviews maybe cost have been cut? They need to do better. Plenty of great restaurants in the area. Someone would have to insist on going here before we try this place again. Overall, it was $90.00 meal for 2 on a Saturday evening (5PM) Good Luck, hope this helps.
