    Busy Sunday morning

    KATY, TX / MEXICAN / TAKEOUT BREAKFAST +The sauces has a nice kick to them. -The tacos too salty for me. -There we're some sanitary concerns with the takeout packaging methods.

    Beef fajitas taco

    They were a little hard to find as they are located across the street from a shell station. Their address brings you to a corner where there are 4 food trucks! They are on the side all alone and are setup semi permanently. I found them on Yelp when I looked for tacos. I ordered a couple of beef fajitas tacos and they did not disappoint. I would definitely return just for them. There's a pretty extensive menu of choices. There is a couple of tables with umbrellas to wait under and a covered area with seating also. I will definitely return to try a few different tacos.

    If y'all haven't found this gem... woooooDogggggy- ya missing out!! Seriously, hands down the best breakfast tacos and NOW they have BURRITOS! Honestly, it was too much food for me, but I had to get it once. The sheer size of this thing- remote for context. They do bulk orders if you're looking to feed a crowd and open at 6am. Next time you're in the area, please give them a try. No picture, but the Aqua Fresca Piña is also amazing!!

    Fajita quesadilla

    I was super excited to try this place out based on all of the reviews, but unfortunately did not have the same experience. The service was great and the employees were sweet, but I was disappointed with the food. I ordered fajita, barbacoa, and Al pastor tacos and a fajita quesadilla. Despite the picture and how it looks, the barbacoa was the best in terms of flavor. The food is definitely not what you would expect from an authentic Mexican food truck. They put tomatoes and lettuce in their tacos and quesadillas. If you look at the cheese in the quesadilla, you can tell they used shredded mixed blend cheese that you can get from the grocery store. The Al pastor and fajita meat were pretty dry also. One of the pros of the place is that they don't skimp with the meat.

    Breakfast burrito as big as my hand for $6

    Best tacos in not only Katy but all of Houston as well. Friendly service, place has been here forever but I only just found it! Don't be like me. Go here today and you'll have found Katy's best kept secret! Don't be fooled by the other imposter trucks on the same corner. TEX-TACO OR NO TACO IS THE ONLY WAY TO GO!

    Their tacos are really good. Definitely a recommended place. Their birria tacos are delicious and the size is pretty good for price.

    One of the best thing about this restaurant is the service ! Jocelyn (I spelled the name wrong),…read moretook great care of us. She was very nice and attentive. This place has one of the best drinks, both of my our drinks was delicious . I'd come back here just for the drinks alone. The food wasn't too bad. It's very different compared to your average Tex/mex restaurant. *Be advised - add your name to waitlist on Fri/Saturday dinner bc their will be a 30min-1hr wait*

    We had one of the worst dining experiences ever at Ambriza La Centerra. After living in Houston for…read more15 years and dining all over the city, this was by far the most disappointing restaurant experience we've had. What made it even more frustrating is that we've been to the Cypress location many times, and every single visit there has been exceptional -- great food, great service, and consistently enjoyable. Unfortunately, the La Centerra location was the complete opposite. We waited over an hour for our food, only to receive the wrong appetizer. The fajita plate arrived cold and without rice, beans, or tortillas. We sent both dishes back. The replacement appetizer -- ceviche tostadas -- finally arrived, but it was overloaded with lemon to the point of being unbearably sour. Meanwhile, there were still no tortillas, rice, or beans in sight. No drink refills, no updates, and barely any service during the entire wait. After another long stretch of waiting, we finally asked the server what was happening, only for her to return and tell us the kitchen was closing and they no longer had tortillas, rice, or beans available. At that point, after nearly 1.5 hours, we walked out with nothing but a to-go box of fajita meat. To the manager's credit, they removed the appetizer and fajita charges from the bill, but the experience itself left such a bad taste that it completely overshadowed the gesture. Extremely disappointing, especially compared to the excellent standards we've experienced at the Cypress location. Sadly, we will not be returning to this location.
