Having been here a handful of times after going to its sibling Tornado Burger for years, this place always hits the spot. Whether its their birria tacos or their street fiesta tacos, it's packed with flavor every time. I will say though, the bold flavor also means it's quite greasy and heavy. They make Taco Bell and Taco Cabana feel like "clean eating". There is some outdoor seating, but I've never seen anyone out there. This is pretty much exclusively drive-thru only. Depending on when you go, there could be no one there or a line wrapped around and out onto Murphy/FM 1092. It is very hole in the wall, so when you come here, you're supporting local business. read more

This continues to be an absolute go-to in Fort Bend. Everything is fantastic, the prices remain great and somehow the menu keeps growing. See ice is always prompt and polite. read more

Tornado Taco - Potato, chorizo and cheese taco - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Missouri City, Texas

Came here for a quick lunch and let me tell you! The tacos are SO worth it here. The service is great and the employees are nice. The mexican plates are worth it (Barbacoa is what I got). My only issue is that I ordered a side of queso and chips and the queso didn't taste too good (would not recommend) and the chips were stale :/. I would definitely come back for the tacos! read more

Tornado Taco - Mexican Plate Barbacoa, Charro Beans, Rice - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Missouri City, Texas

Stopped by here since I was in the area for work. The reviews and the foot traffic were promising, but I didn't think it was that great. I ordered one breakfast taco with egg, cheese, potato, and beans. The lady who took my order asked if I wanted mild, spicy, or bold salsa- I went with spicy, which was a green salsa (tomatillo I think?). The taco was kind of bland. I was worried it would be overly salty but it was quite the opposite. The ingredients, however, did taste fresh and of good quality. The tortilla was also very good. The salsa was indeed hot but also lacked flavor. I also got the horchata, which was terrible. It was unbearably sweet and I could hardly taste the cinnamon or rice. Just sugar. read more

I've visited several times for breakfast and once for a weekend lunch, and each time my food has been fresh and served hot. On one occasion, a taco was missing from my order, but it was quickly replaced with no issues. This has definitely become a go-to breakfast spot for me and my girls, and I'll continue to return. I also recently tried the Al Pastor--very fresh, neatly prepared, and full of flavor, with limes served on the side. read more

Stopped by driving through Houston & this place did not disappoint. They were very quick and the workers were nice. The food was great! The birria tacos are flavorful and the consume was great. The rice was a little dry but the refried beans were good. The queso was decent, lacking a little flavor though. But the shredded chicken burrito... WOW! It had so much flavor, the meat was tender, it was super fresh and it was a great portion of food. Definitely want to come by here again! read more

I relocated to another side of town and haven't been here in a while. I think about it often. I'm the #1 fan of tornado taco. Steak egg and cheese on flour with the mango habanero 10/10!!! I love you guys so much and I miss you!! Organized, structured and efficient. The line will be wrapped around the block and I'll still be on time to work. Customer service 10/10. BEST BREAKFAST TACOS IN THE WORLD read more

This was a hidden gem for me! They have the BEST tacos. I had their breakfast tacos and they were perfect and so tasty. The bacon was crispy which is the way I like it. They are very reasonably priced. I also love the patio area. It is so cute and peaceful. I can't wait to come back read more

I ordered the spicy ground beef nachos. When my food was handed to me, it was heavy! I've never had diced potatoes on nachos but that is a great addition! It was loaded with beef and cheese. There were no naked nachos For $8,99, I feel I got my money's worth! I was able to share with my bf and we still had nachos left over. It's almost like a second meal the next day; tortilla casserole. Taco Cabana nachos has nothing on Tornado Taco! I can't wait to try more of their menu items! read more

Simply delicious. I've driven by this place many times, and there was always a line of cars. I finally gave it a try today, and I was not disappointed. I got the 4 Quesabirria Plate special. Everything tasted great. The beans were a little unseasoned, but if you add a little bit of consume to it, it makes it a lot better. I will definitely go back and try the other items. read more

We've already eaten here three times since we arrived in Houston on Friday lol Super tasty food and how awesome is it that they have a drive thru??

Let's start with star of the show... the food* we came to get their birria plate, one burrito, and a beans and rice... The burrito: beef, rice, beans, pico Flavor profile: salt and pepper (very much pepper steak from any Chinese restaurant) just as soft but also oddly chewy... Presentation: burrito was about 2-2.5 inches wide wrapped in a 12 inch flour tortilla a bit on the small side for the price but no complaints other than that. Final take: the flavor of any beef in a Mexican/tex Mex taco spot should not be heavy black pepper and salt... it should have nuance, some garlic paprika even cumin... this had none of that the rice had the color none of the flavor and the beans were flat... Birria plate: beef birria quesadillas, side of rice, side of charro beans* The birria quesadillas: cheese beef birria fried corn tortilla. Flavor profile: grease forward salty but at least had flavor, that being said the flavor wasn't the best, the only saving grace was the hot sauce that I added, the rice was once again disappointing, and the charro beans... one word (mush) Final take: these are almost good, once again the rice and beans fell flat, but they're also the reason I didn't give a 1 star review. Beans and rice: once again... flavorless Final take: my daughter likes the cheese sprinkled on top. Full overview: the service was quick and the person helping was nice, he suggested the steak as the best option... the ambiance was that of a fast food drive through nothing special maybe the patio would be nice to sit at at nighttime... over all this is a far cry from Mexican food and only retains the spirit with the names given to the dishes that look familiar to me but taste nothing like the real article... read more

I tried some very tasty birria tacos, which were filled up with delish beef, served with decent beans and rice. I will definately be back & especially like the drive-thru. read more

Tornado Taco - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Missouri City, Texas

Stopped by for lunch on a whim and I am glad we did. Had the street tacos with no complaints. The spicy salsa is actually spicy, and the little tacos had plenty of meat (barbacoa, ground beef, pork). The person who took our order was friendly and professional. There is only outdoor seating, so not ideal for hot weather. We sat in the car and enjoyed our meal. Everything was packed neat and we were given plenty of napkins for the mess they knew we would make. read more

Love their food...I've had the tacos, breakfast tacos, nachos, torta, and quesadillas. Tried the coke from Mexico and it tasted like regular coke to me. Aside from that it's tasty, fulfilling, and they have great service. read more

Breakfast burritos are loaded!! Drive thru is fast and orders are always correct. We have been customers for over 15 years.

Omg if you've driven past this place you know it's well loved. Their carnitas in salsa burrito is my favorite thing to order. It's soooo good full of flavor and plenty of filling. The quesadillas are huge! The Birria is very good, not too salty and very tender. They are always very friendly and helpful and are usually pretty quick! They have a small outdoor table, but mostly Togo. read more

An average breakfast taco. I've definitely had better. I ordered a breakfast taco with egg, cheese and bacon. Coming out at $3.23. It was not worth the 3 dollars. It was small and cold. Cheese just just slapped on there. Definitely underwhelming read more

Tornado Taco - Breakfast taco - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Missouri City, Texas

The food was good didn't take long to prepare. I haven't been here in a while now I'm back.

Great service always!!!! Try their breakfast tacos they are always generous with their servings. You never have to ask "where is the beef?". lol Nevertheless, those street tacos are a whole story on their own. My personal opinion, In Fort Bend County we're pretty limited when it comes to street food. Nevertheless, Tornado Taco has you covered. They have all sorts of tacos. Birria, breakfast tacos , lunch, dinner, etc. It's located at the cross streets of Murphy Road and Cartwright in Missouri City Texas. It's a small drive-thru restaurant that carries lots of flavor. Despite the size of it, it's pretty awesome and has a covered sitting area in the front and the back of the restaurant.. ohhhh ! wait a minute I forgot to mention there homemade mild and spicy salsas, absolutely delicious. They have this mango spicy, which is my favorite. Anyway, I hope y'all make it a point to stop by if not, enjoy and share with all your experience. If not you're missing out. read more

Good service from two female cashier that work at front. And the food was really good thank you tornado taco.

My boyfriend and I came across this place while driving home the other day and decided to give it a try. I ordered the fajita nachos and my boyfriend ordered birria quesadillas. The nachos were a 10/10 with the meat being so tender and flavorful! The birria quesadillas on the other hand had a weird aftertaste. Either the consome or the birria itself just left a weird taste in both of our mouths. It was tender and you could tell the flavor was there but we couldn't get over the aftertaste. Now for the horchata- honestly this was the worst horchata we have ever had. It was so sweet and tastes just like condensed milk and cinnamon. The color was light brown/tan rather than white which is different than any other horchata I have had. We will definitely give this place another try and just not order the horchata or anything with birria in it. I definitely want to try their burritos and would get the fajita nachos again read more

I eat here multiple times a week. This is a small mom & pop style Mexican restaurant that is capable of serving multiple people throughout the day! I eat here for breakfast and I always get the breakfast tacos. They are cheap and give you big portions of food. The birria tacos are so good and the steak & chicken nachos is a must try. They are not afraid to give you plenty sauce. The staff is nice and works really fast to get their lines down. It is only a small seating area outside so they food probably would be best to-go. read more

I tried the l breakfast tacos on a Sunday morning, and I will say, they were good.
