Flour and corn tortillas
Lourdes O.

So I'm driving by and see balloons, hear mariachi music, lots of people and realized it was a grand opening. I decide to stop and check it out, you know who doesn't like fresh tortillas? I see that they sell fresh corn and flour tortillas but they also sell food. So I think to myself why not? It's lunch time! So I buy a bunch of stuff to try. Tortillas of course, barbacoa, carnitas, rice, charro beans, agua fresca. Gosh I was hungry! I get home super excited to try everything and what a disappointment. The rice was dry, the carnitas were extremely fat and almost had no flavor, the salsa was super watery, sad. The only good thing was the barbacoa and the tortillas. I spent around $45 + on all these food and I'm not expecting anything other than good Mexican food. But nope, what a shame..

Two carnita and one barbacoa(couldnt wait and ate one before i got a picture) green sauces onions n cilantro and red sauce in bag.

Was craving some sort of street tacos and i remember this place had some so decided to go check them out with my friend. We get there go inside and immediately get greeted and was explain about their tortillas and food they sell then offer a small taco of barbacoa and 3 different salsa to choose from and wow was i impressed absolutely delicious the meat was juice and had great flavor the tortilla was to die for soft but firm enough to hold the juice meat and i tried the green sauce and it was perfect. I ended up ordering 4 carnita tacos and 4 barbacoa so that i could share with my boyfriend at home plus a large horchata it was so taste im not sure if they make it out of rice or powder but my guess was rice because it didnt have that grainy taste to it. Came home and it was still perfectly hot and the tortilla held up nicely even with the juice of the meat. It came with the green sauce in a little container their super spicy red sauce in a sealed bag and some onions and cilantro in another sealed zip lock looking bag which i thought was nice i will say tho i wished they had more cliantro in the bag than onions tho and some limes in another bag. The barbacoa tacos were my favorite i have to say unfortunately the carnita tacos were dry but the lime and sauces help it a bit. Im definitely wanting to go back and try their tubed cremas that they had for sales in the front cooler and they flour tortillas as well. All in all well done definitely have a returning customer here.

Barbacoa, carnitas, chicharrones, salsa and homemade corn tortillas.

Very good barbacoa and homemade tortillas. Good selection of Mexican food to go. Great service and friendly staff.

Barbacoa taco on flour tortilla and chicken taco with corn tortilla slow cooked to perfection.

WOW the food was so good!! The restaurant is very lively with Spanglish everywhere, making it easy…read moreto order and understand the menu in English while maintaining an authentic feel. The food was phenomenal -- specifically, the carne asada. There is usually a line to order and then it's first come first serve for seating, making it a bit challenging but very worth it! Once you sit down, they bring chicharrones to your table and they'll yell out your name when your order is ready and you raise your hand for them to bring the food to you. We also enjoyed some aguas frescas on a hot summer day and the churros were a perfect dessert! I will absolutely be coming back next time I'm in town, and hopefully the weather is a bit cooler so we can enjoy the patio.

Being from San Diego we know good carne asada and TJ-style tacos/burritos...and Tacos Frontera is…read morewhere it's at!! While visiting family in Houston we were excited to come across a "real" Mexican (as opposed to Tex-Mex...iykyk) taco shop. As soon as you walk in and see the Tijuana and Baja Mexico signs and decor you know you're in the right place. There's an open kitchen, allowing you to watch your carne being grilled on the open-flame grill. That charged meat smell is heavenly! Their guac is chunky and simple (nothing too fancy), hot sauces are tasty (and they have a kick!), tortillas are thin but strong -- holding the goods in just right. It's also nice that they have complimentary tasty, crispy pork rinds -- as opposed to the standard chips & salsa. Portions are ample! They definitely don't skimp -- tons of meat and guac in their tacos and huge, meaty burritos! Prices are fair, especially for what you get! Their dining room is a tad small, but it's very clean and the a/c is good...there's also a nice patio outside. Service was swift and friendly. Food was good. A/C was poppin'. Parking was plentiful. All in all I have to admit that Tacos Frontera comes as close to good San Diego Mexican food as you can get...they would definitely be able to hold their own in San Diego!

They do have a happy hour on their margaritas and they do serve breakfast I decided to try their fried shrimp and fish platter, which was their daily special and it was good. It was freshly made, very tasty, and you got a lot for your money. The breading on the fish and shrimp, was like a cornmeal batter. We also had one of their bigger burritos and it was stuffed. They did not skimp on any of the food and add-ons to this burrito. What are the nice things about this restaurant was due to my food allergies I had some questions and they were so kind and friendly. They answered every question I needed and I felt like they cared about my food allergies. I do think they need to expand their menu a little bit as far as some foods without so many spices in it and other items for people like me who do you have the food allergies but this will not stop me from coming back. I want to try their breakfast because it looked phenomenal. If you were looking for a smaller quaint, Mexican restaurant, with sports on TVs and really good deals on margaritas, this is the place for you. Or

I really wanted to try an assortment of tacos, but they wouldn't allow me to - I even offered to pay a premium.
