Delicious! Loved my ceviche and carne guisada plate! The atmosphere was warm and engaging! Service was impeccable! We NEEDED a phenomenal neighborhood restaurant!! Thank you!! Second Visit- This restaurant is phenomenal on every level! We ordered ceviche, carne guisada, chicken mole and cheese enchiladas followed by tres leches, flan and oh my goodness the cheesecake is the best we've ever had! Alejandro made our evening delightful! He provided us with recommendations and was attentive and engaging! We had the best evening! I wish I had taken pictures because the presentation of their dishes and even the dishes themselves were lovely! read more

Came during lunch. The place was cool. Typical vibes. Order a small top shelf margarita with patron. It was great. Modelo with a super frosted glass which was top tier. We both got the lunch special. Pick 3 Chips and salsa need a revamp. Lacked overall flavor on both. The red one was extremely disappointing. Green one was mid. Or slightly below mid. Plate 1: chicken taco, chicken enchilada, and bean tostada Plate 2: beef taco, sour cream chicken enchilada, and pork tamale. Both came with rice & beans queso puff and scoop of guacamole. Service and presentation was 9/10 Beef taco 6/10 lacked flavor Pork tamale 7/10. Solid. It was hot and you could taste pork. So no complaints Sour cream enchilada 7/10 Chicken taco 7/10 Tostada 6/10 Rice 5/10 Beans 4/10 really watery Service 8/10 so overall it was a solid experience. Everything lacked overall flavor for a TexMex and everything needed salt. But all those things can be fixed. It's giving Austin TexMex vibes with those prices. Wouldn't order food next time. Sort of run of the mill Tex mex here in Houston. Just drinks on the next visit. read more

when I walked in, I saw these young men helping this old lady out to her car after she was done eating, so i already know the service was very good! The food was a 7/10, and the meat was very good on my platter, but it was alright. I would say it was pretty dark in there, especially considering that it was daytime. but overall, it was a pretty good experience and I would probably go again. read more

We came by on Saturday and the service was great. The "garage" door was open and it was nice to sit by the door. We ordered the house margaritas as well as a prickly pear Margarita. They were all very tasty. For the appitizer we got the queso findido with chorizo. It lacked flavor, that's the reason for the 4 stars. The other food items we got were really good and you could tell the tortillas were made from scratch! They were so good. read more

My son started our evening by asking for cheese enchiladas. Rather than visit one of our usuals, I wanted to try somewhere new. Yelp led us to Terlinguas. I ordered the combo fajitas for two and my son went for his kid's cheese enchilada. We also started with a chile con queso. I'll go in order. The chile con queso came out first. While it had good flavor, it was almost warm at best. I sent it back for re-heating. Once it came back out - thumbs up. My son gave his seal of approval for the cheese enchilada - he loved it and said he wants to come back and get it again. The fajitas - they tasted really good, were nice and hot, but the quantity was a bit disappointing. The amount they served for two was what most restaurants serve for one. At almost $41 for the combo fajitas, one would expect a bit more. There were more peppers and onions than protein. Service-wise, the staff were great! They were very attentive and very nice. The place wasn't loud and the "garage door" was open which allowed for the outdoor breeze to come in. I would try the place again, but would probably try something else aside from the fajitas. read more

Mid. I got two large margaritas, and I don't drink at all so I was expecting to be more than a little buzzed. The opposite. It was like I'd drank two large sugary fruit juices. No alcohol. The food was mid Sysco bucket food. Lots of fake Rico cheese and otherwise bucket slop. Very boomer meets fat Xer vibes. read more

Place was PACKED on Friday night. The service was on point and food was served fast. Complimentary chips and salsa. My only notes were the portions (I wish they were bigger). My pollo poblano was only served with one thin chicken breast. And that it was REALLY smoky in there--it was coming from the kitchen. They had the doors open-- maybe to let it out but it was intense. I'd be back though. read more

Terlinguas - Pollo poblano - Mexican Near Me - Spring, Texas

This is a new tex mex place that owned up by my house. There was a 15 min wait because the place was busy and is not that much seating inside. The service was a little slow because it was busy and the waiter did forget to check on us for a while when we were done eating. We ordered ceviche for appetizer and it was a 2 out of 5. It tasted like store bought shrimp and did not taste fresh. The chips and salsa are just ok... the green sauce tastes like it was out of a jar and the red salsa was warm and was a little better. My husband and I enjoyed our food, but it wasn't anything that I would revisit for. Overall, the place was fine and worth a try. I will stick to my favorites when I'm in the mood for mexican food. read more

Our first time at this resturant. We sat down and tried the salsa great flavor, green and red salsas. The red sauce is served warm. We had the fajitas nachos as an appetizer and the fajitas meat was so tender and flavorful! Delicious. We had entrees to sample more of the menu. I did not like the cheese enchilada in the Mix plate, the cheese did not melt, there was not enough sauce and the enchilada was mostly tortilla. The tamale was good. The taco I had to dump out the filling because the taco shell was soggy on one end. The meat was flavorful. The carne guisada was good, very unique flavor. The tortillas were nice and fresh. We ambiance was good. The staff was friendly and attentive. I asked about the resturant, how long they have been there etc. He was friendly and told us it was a family business. We will be back if not for the fajitas alone (we thought they were better than a chain close by. read more

We had lunch here about 2 months ago and the food and service were excellent. We returned last weekend and the place was packed at night. The food was very good, we started with queso and chicharones. I had the Rib Eye with asparagus and elote, and my spouse had Chile Rellenos both very good. Service was on point, drinks were exceptional, the skinny watermelon margarita and the Smokey marg with hibiscus was also good. We didn't save room for dessert, but plan on returning soon. read more

We happened upon this restaurant using yelp while we were in the area. Wonderful dinner experience! The hostess was friendly and helped us choose the perfect table to accommodate us and our baby stroller. Our server was friendly and very knowledgeable about the menu and ingredients. He introduced himself by name. I also noticed how clean and neatly dressed all the waitstaff were. The dining room, bar area, and bathroom were clean and tidy. We enjoyed the nice ambiance created by friendly, well dressed staff, clean surroundings and enjoyable classic music. The food was delicious! Especially notable were the chunky style guacamole, house made tortillas, and the charro beans. Service was perfectly timed. We left full, satisfied and happy. read more

Great service! Food was great too. I truly hope this place makes a go of it. A lot of other places have come through here, but this one hopefully will stay. Good luck. We'll definitely be back. read more

What a fantastic restaurant. Everything about this place is on the spot. Food, drinks, location, staff all 5 stars. Price is good too. Definitely will be back as this becomes a go to place. Great for date night, family meal, or just a quick bite. read more

The service was amazinggggg, our server Alejandro made our first time experience truly special. This restaurant is lucky to have him! The food was also amazing my husband got the crispy tacos, I got the pollo poblano, and our toddler got the beef enchiladas and all of us left full and satisfied. The ambiance is nice. Can be good for a quick date night or a night out with the family. We will be coming again. read more

Visited for dinner with close friends who were hosting son's graduation get-together. We chose this restaurant based on the reviews, proximity to home, and as part of a quest to patronize good family-run establishments (as opposed to chains). Terlinguas did not disappoint! Visit was quite memorable with good friends, good food/service, and good fun underpinning it. We were 7 in all, and were seated immediately upon arrival by a friendly hostess. The ubiquitous complimentary chips and salsas arrived promptly - the roasted pepper Salsa could have been spicier, while the Guac/Sour Cream one was par for the course. Asked for and received a Habanero sauce which we mixed with the other Salsas to amp up the spice level. Ordered a side of Guac, which tasted fresh but lacked oomph (low in salt and lime/tartness). Food and drinks too arrived without delay - Jalapeño Margarita and Virgin Pina Colada - huge and delicious; veggie Fajitas and Quesadillas - in deference to our vegetarian hosts. Food was fresh and sizzling (the Fajitas), plentiful, and tasty! Service by Raul and trainee, Antonio, was excellent - friendly and solicitous. Will, the smiling/friendly owner, came by to check on us - a very nice touch! Upon receiving feedback regarding the Salsas and Guac (he explained that they did have spicy Salsa on the menu, but withdrew them based on customer complaint - sad), he brought over a plate of seared Serrano, which complimented the food well. He again came by to chat and bid goodbye as we departed. Prices were reasonable for the quantity/quality on offer. A keeper in our books - plan to return to savor other menu items. Glad to have Terlinguas in our community - hope they get the patronage they deserve. read more

The atmosphere and the staff and service were great. I have been looking for "the" go to Tex Mex since I have been in Houston (2 yrs) but this was not the place. The food in my opinion was not as great as the restaurant ambiance. The cheese enchiladas did not seem to have real cheese in them it was more like a cheese sauce. The carne guisada was unlike any guisada that I have ever had. The meat was super tender but the gravy was not a true guisada gravy. It was super red with paprika and chili powder. The charro beans were very good and the rice had great taste but was very crunchy. The flour tortillas were on point as you could tell they were hand made. I'm sure many people enjoy this place, but it was just not what we were expecting based on reviews and suggestions from my neighbors. read more

Delicious food and wonderful service! My family and I enjoyed our first visit to Terlingua's Tex-Mex Garage on a Saturday evening. The place has a charming vibe, with a seated patio and open garage doors that let in a refreshing breeze. We chose to sit inside, where the cozy interior felt just right. Our friendly waiter, Jose, was quick to greet us and took our drink orders right away. We started with chips and salsa, both of which were incredibly tasty. I ordered a large strawberry margarita, and my husband had a strawberry daiquiri -- both were fantastic! They were made with fresh strawberries, not frozen mix, making them some of the best margaritas we've ever had. My husband agreed. For our appetizers, we enjoyed a ceviche packed with shrimp. Our main courses included chicken flauta plates, street tacos, and mole enchiladas, and every bite was a delight. The homemade corn tortillas, the incredible mole sauce, and the crispy, flavorful flautas made each dish special. We also couldn't resist their homemade sopapillas -- so yummy! The portions were generous; we couldn't finish everything and took leftovers home. The service was attentive, with Jose checking in and keeping our drinks filled. We're so happy to have discovered this gem and can't wait to come back and try more of their delicious dishes. read more

The food is authentic, amazing flavor. First started with the street corn, which is roasted with queso fresco & Mayo, super fresh & sweet. Next I had the Chicken Poblano, grilled chicken breast with poblano crema sauce loaded & packed with flavor, the usual rice & beans as sides, also pico & guacamole. My husband had the Tampico Steak, super tender, the usual sides plus a an enchilada. I tasted a small piece of his steak & will definitely order that next time! Their hot sauce with chips were also awesome! The hot sauce always tells you if the rest of your meal will be good, and it didn't disappoint! The service was also top notch, ...we will be back and quite possibly on the rotation of our faves. I forgot to mention the prices are also very reasonable considering how awesome the food is,... 5-Star today, hope they keep it up! read more

My first time at this restaurant. It was clean and welcoming. My server, Angel was very professional and would come to check on me. I ordered the queso appetizer, two enchiladas ( one chicken mole and one cheese with a red sauce- lunch portion. Both enchiladas were good! My meal included rice and I chose charro beans. The beans were flavorful! The guacamole that came with my meal was very fresh. I also had their green sauce which was so good, I ordered more to go! It was addicting! They also served a Smokey dark red sauce that was delicious too. For being a lunch special, there was plenty of food. I had to take home the queso and some of the charro beans. All in all, a delicious meal. Next time, I will bring my family. read more
