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.

Looking for fire tacos? Look no further than Taco Fuego! Finally a place that lives up to its name…read moreand reputation, Taco Fuego is top tier! Let's start with location, Taco Fuego has 5 locations to choose from. A mixture of store front and taco trucks. I decided to stop at their Katy location (taco truck) located at 1005 Katy fort bend road. This truck was very easy to find. My husband and I really wanted give this place a try for a couple reasons, 1. Every picture you see on IG makes your mouth water lol. 2. Their meat is fresh and locally sourced! The truck itself is nice, and clean. Also has a little Led sign that says catch tacos not feelings super cute for an IG photo. Service was quick, friendly and informative. We ordered a few different tacos to try: The Quesabirria Taco~ Birria or chicken, cheese, limes, cilantro and pickled onions on a corn tortilla. This one was really good and it definitely has a bit of a kick. The meat is so flavorful you do not need to add any additional sauces. The Barbacoa Taco~ Beef Barbacoa, cilantro, onions and salsa verde on a corn tortilla. This one was in the top 2 for me. Yum!! That beef was cooked to perfection! The Texan Taco~ brisket, Monterey Jack cheese, corn, cilantro, pickled onions and creamy cilantro on a flour tortilla. My husband inhaled it. Lolol. I got a tiny bite and it was very good. All of the flavors worked together so well! The Shrimp Taco~ my absolute favorite! Fried Shrimp, Monterey Jack Cheese, Sour Cream and Cajun sauce on a flour tortilla. The shrimp was fire. Perfectly seasoned. I don't know what they put in that Cajun sauce but they need to bottle it so I can take it home! Other things to note: Everything is halal They offer a veggie taco option They offer more than tacos. Ex: Ramen, Burgers, pupusas, empanadas, flautas and tamales. Churros for dessert! Drinks include: Horchata, lemonade and Cantaloupe. Be prepared to dine in your car.

Tacos were good. They loaded them up with meat which I…read moreappreciate. Definitely made it feel worth the 3.75$. The birria was probably the best item. But overall good experience.

This place should be on the map. BEST MEXICAN IN KATY! Prices are lowest too!!! Try me. Then…read morethank me later Food: I've had everything. It's insane. The tacos and food from all various South American countries. It's insane. Drink: Cheapest margaritas in Houston. Literally. Atmosphere: It's a shopping center but the kindest most authentic South American/Mexican people work here. Service: Denzel is a gent- however so is everyone else. South Americans are the most hospitable culture around. Thank me later.

We were the first customers on a Dec 6th, Saturday morning…read more All of the front end staff was sitting at a table, cracking up to the point where I thought they were diners of the restaurant because of how comfortable they were. And after taking our drink order and bringing our drinks, the friendly waitress went to sit down and play on her cell phone. The problem was we needed napkins. Napkins weren't on the table nor were they self service. Since she was playing on her cell phone, she wasn't doing her table rounds to be available to ask for napkins. Chips and salsa can naturally be messy. All it takes is one little boo-boo with salsa, and it splatters on the table. After what felt like 5 to 10 minutes, she eventually came back around to take our food order, but her lack of attention and behavior had already messed up the customer service experience. The real crime here is the food flavor itself. I ordered the taco mix. This is a simple way to judge the restaurant by its protein flavor. Each street size taco allowed a glimpse into the seasoning and preparation of their food. The El Pastor was lacking flavor. There was only one tiny pineapple tidbit. The Birria taco just has bad seasoning. The Carne Asada that had no sear or color, so it was gray and mushy. Cheese, crema, and avocado cannot make up for meat that doesn't taste good. While the server was friendly, it doesn't make up for the fact that the food itself is bad. And when you think about how tacos are so easy to make if all it involves is seasoning, a protein and cooking it. They're botching up simple cooking techniques and use bad recipes. The street cart concept is certainly fun. We did the churro cart, and it was fun to see the sparkler. The birthday girl liked the music and the churro experience. The Nutella chocolate is too firm so it doesn't really stick to the churro as well. It would be better if they made a Nutella sauce then straight up ultra thick Nutella. The cajeta was a bit sour because it's goat milk, not cows milk. I would prefer a caramel over cajeta. The best dipping sauce was the condensed milk. To their credit, the churros were fresh and piping hot. Still, this isn't the kind of place I would not want to return to for the simple fact that the food was not good. These kinds of dining experiences make you think I'm better off, cooking at home then driving to the restaurant, settling for so so service, paying for mediocre food. I wish restaurants collectively needed to pass some kind of flavor standard or cooking consistency to earn a restaurant license because at this rate mediocre food is being served, and the customer is not the wiser until they sit down and taste it. It also surprises me that these kinds of places can survive for years and years through serving mediocre food. I can't recommend it. I wouldn't return.
