    a close up of a food item
    Timothy B.

    To celebrate #TacoTuesday , let's take a trip down memory lane when I visited @blkmktbirria at @8thwonderbrew . What a great space for food and drinks for everyone. Kid and dog friendly and with amazing food trucks and music . I got to try the Quesotacos . 4 tacos served on corn tortillas with slow cooked beef and mozzarella cheese. With a side cup of consumme (very seasoned and tasty). Also got some Mulitas served with the birria slowed cooked beef and mozzarella cheese. A night out at @8thwonderbrew is recommended if your in Houston and make sure to stop by @blkmktbirria . Make sure to tell em Timmy sent you ! Follow me on Instagram @Timmyinthecity

    Birria Quesotacos

    Love that I get the opportunity to be one of the first reviews. This truck is BOMB. Finding birria in Houston is no easy task and when you do, it's not always good. The red tortilla take on this popular dish take sit to the NEXT level. So delicious and they give plenty of consume soup to dip it in. If you want to find the truck, check out their Instagram page at @ blkmktbirria. They also give onions, cucumbers, cilantro, limes, and radish on the side to dress up your tacos. And of course green hot sauce! The peso ole working the truck were great and accommodating. Held fun conversation while my friends and I waited. To be honest this will be one of my new regular food trucks.

    I haven't had their food at the restaurant but last night I went to get food from their food truck. I got one order of the Birria Tacos one of the Quesataco and the Birria fries. I'd like to start out with the food...that shit tastes amazing!!! I mean I know you got suckered in my the pics but the food tastes as good as it looks. The Birria tacos have so much flavor. These people know what they are doing. The quesatacos were really good as well. I was pleasantly surprised with the fries. I went back and forth on if I wanted to order or not because usually food truck fries and just those bland crinkle cut fries just fried and oily. HOWEVER these fries were soooo good. The sauces were amazing and the juice to dip the tacos in was out of this world. Again these people know what they are doing. There are a few negatives, however they don't take away from the quality of food you are going to get. We arrived at the food truck line at 7:11 pm...we waited TWO HOURS in line...it wasn't even that long of a line when we got there...but TWO hours is just ridiculous. Finally at around 9:25 we finally ordered...I was tired I kept saying this better be worth it. I've never waited so long for food... Finally got our food at 11:11...two hours later. Didn't get home till 11:30. So yeah it was a 4 hour wait. That was the worst. Who wants to wait that long for food. Was the food worth 4 hours of my life...no... Was the food worth going and getting there early next time and having them again...yes. So yeah five starts, but be expecting a wait. A long wait. Prices were a bit high but not unreasonable. Birria tacos (3) 10$ Quesatacos (4) 12$ Birria Fries 13$

    Saw this food truck on TikTok and had to give it a shot. First off get there as early as you can bc the line gets ridiculous and you do run a chance of them running out of meat. We got there around 815 and made our way to the front of the line at 945pm. The menu has been shortened from what is listed on this site, just FYI. Food was pretty good. It falls into the birria hype for sure. The meat they use is barbacoa. We ordered the quesotacos, burrito, birria fries, and quesadilla. They were all delicious, I have no real complaints. Staff was friendly and you could tell they were working as hard as they could to push out orders. I hope to see the menu grow back up and try some new items. If you hit up this spot with more than one person and the truck is still located on 1920 Houston st, ask your friend(s) to walk over to the attached bar and order a drink while you all wait.

    Went to 8th wonder brewery and decided to try this taco truck since the options were limited. I love birria, tried several different places, even made it at home and I just gotta say this is NOT birria. What really confuses me is the bright red taco shell. Why? Just why? Why do they feel the need to use food coloring instead of just using the consume like everyone else. The meat was tender but that's all they have to offer really. As for the consume and the flavor it was lacking. Honestly tasted like water to me.

    Amazing combination with the outside of the taco. Loved the complete taco with the cheese oozing out of the taco and the moist meat, can't beat it and loved the extra sauce for the taco to dip the taco in. It's a special taste and the appearance matched the truck and it's logo it was awesome. I would have to make it happen again if I see this truck around. You want to try something different check they out.

    I've had birria tacos a couple of other times.. all of them are made with corn tortillas these are made with flour and honestly they didn't amaze me. Way too much hype.. won't be eating with them again

    El Chapo on top of fries with chicken
    Cierra N.

    My friend and I ate from Black Market Burritos while we were visiting Truck Yard. We ordered their El Chapo with chicken over fries. It was perfect for sharing! The dish was cheesy and tasty. All of the fries were covered with something, which I definitely appreciated! We also ordered churros. When we went to pick them up, the cook forgot to make them and ended up giving us two orders! We were too excited, because they were great! Crispy on the outside and ooey gooey in the inside. There was a dulce leche type sauce inside sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar on the outside and to top it all off with Fruity Pebbles. It was fantastic! Also, I must say, one of the guys allowed me to borrow his phone charger since my phone was almost dead. I really really appreciated that! Great service great food on a summer afternoon...you can't beat that!

    hot cheeto bling burrito style. SO GOOD!

Arrived on Sunday evening around 7:30. Was sat immediately. Not my first time here so I knew the menu, my friends did not. So they needed time to see what drinks they wanted because they like cocktails and the menu is not small and they had to choose which ones they wanted because the options are good. When they decided, the cocktails straggled out. Two came out but the other two did not, They just sat at the bar as my friends sat with there with their drinks in front of them waiting on ours so we can toast to a wonderful day with a new member of the group. You would have thought the other staff would step in or at least the bartender would see that the waiter was in the weeds and needed help. That's when I knew we should have not come. The food was all lukw warm. The appetizer of queso was like warm with chunks of cheese floating around and some of the chips were fresh and others stale. A mixed bag you can say. My Flautas where luke warm, so was the side of beans and rice. My friends said their tacos were okay. My friend who got the Caesar Salad, there was no dressing on the salad not was there a side of dressing that came with it. We had to ask for it. I did not have the energy to try to keep wrangling the waiter. If you want to shut the kitchen down early because the day was long I get it. Let the customer know, I get it. I used to wait tables to but I would never give people luke warm food or luke service. The staff seems not to have one anothers back. I did not eat my food, I took my food home to reheat it so I could eat it at the proper temperature. My friend took his salad home because he had more Caesar dressing at home. Left a bad taste in my mouth and very disappointed. The service and food from the last time compared to this visit was night and day. Total miss. $200.00 thrown away. I paid because I could not let my friends waiste there money on someplace I raved about. Maderas is really a small cute spot. It's rare I have bad service when I go out to eat because I am not a difficult customer and I know I am not the only one they are serving. I will wait for good food and sit back and enjoy the atmosphere and my friends until it arrives. I would not put pressure on the staff or the kitchen. Also I will not arrive just before closing and make a resteraunt and it's staff stay open late because I am hungry. I rather come when the staff and the restaurant wants to recieve customers.

At brunch, the papas bravas come as small cubes of fried potato with an airy crunch that gives way to a soft, pillowy center - the kind of deeply satisfying bite that makes conversation briefly irrelevant. Crisp prosciutto adds salt, aioli brings richness, and smoky chile sauce keeps it lively. They're served with cactus-handled toothpicks, which are almost offensively adorable. The chilaquiles divorciados are another hit. The chips are dressed with salsa rather than drowned beneath it, so each one arrives ready for the perfect bite. It's a small distinction, but an important one. Then there are the enfrijoladas: rolled quesadillas in fluffy tortillas, covered in creamy black bean sauce and plated with more care than bean and cheese might seem to warrant. The dish is fundamentally simple, but that's the point. Soft tortilla, savory beans, melted cheese, bright salsa. Familiar ingredients transformed into something deeply comforting--the culinary equivalent of curling up beneath a warm blanket on a cold morning, even if Houston rarely provides one. Dinner shifts into another gear. The crudos are sensational, especially the tuna tiradito - a rolling wave of flavor and texture. The tacos are excellent across the board, but the crispy maitake mushrooms are unmatched. The short ribs arrive juicy and tender on a mole negro that doesn't sit politely in the background. It lands dark, complex, and full of flavor. And then there's the masa cornbread, a masterpiece of unapologetic indulgence. Humble cornbread meets savory-sweet mole, smoky, earthy butter, and caviar. It sounds like too much. It isn't. Every element earns its place. The cocktails deserve their own warning. They're the kind that convince you to keep ordering the same drink all night. By the end, you may have forgotten what was in it. What you'll remember is that it was refreshing, perfectly balanced, and exactly what you needed. Maximo makes ambitious food feel generous rather than fussy. Come hungry.

The experience started poorly with the valet attendants, whom we found to be rude, dismissive, and very unprofessional. It was such an unpleasant first impression that my wife and I mentioned it to the hostess when we went inside. Unfortunately, things did not improve. The hostess seemed completely unconcerned about our experience and simply informed us that the wait for a table was approximately two hours. While deciding whether our party should wait or go elsewhere, I went to the bar to order a drink. After ordering, the bartender told me that if I was only having a drink, I needed to move. Apparently, sitting at the bar required ordering a meal. At that point, we had experienced enough. Between the unpleasant valet experience, the indifferent response at the hostess stand, the two-hour wait, and then being told I couldn't sit at the bar simply to have a drink while we decided what to do, the overall message was clear: we did not feel welcome here. My wife, the rest of our party, and I decided to leave and have dinner elsewhere. A busy restaurant is understandable. A long wait is understandable. What is much harder to understand is making prospective customers feel unwelcome at nearly every point of contact. Needless to say, this was an exceptionally disappointing experience, and we will not be returning.

It's in the Museum District/Montrose area, so pretty accessible and with plenty of parking. We got seated immediately, and there was a good amount of indoor and outdoor seating, the latter of which was great even on a humid day. The menu was pretty extensive with your Tex-Mex classics like fajitas and enchiladas, with a special for every day of the week. This time was a free upgrade to a large fajita, so I went with the chicken fajitas! It came out after about 20 minutes with all of the fixings and this very yummy buttery sauce. I haven't had too many fajitas, but I'm pretty confident this is a top spot!

    More like Can't Dente…read more Not a fan. The food actually isn't bad, by any means, it's just not my thing. I'm not into Tex-Mex. Houston has some of the greatest Mexican food in the world, and for me Tex-Mex never compares. But of course it is beloved by some Houstonians, plenty of Texans and lots of tourists, and as far as Tex Mex goes, Candente (where I've only eaten 3 times) is around average. A little higher priced and higher end than some of the busier and more well known local chains, but similar in quality and bland taste. The Fajitas are my fave thing on the menu, but nothing to write home about. The reason I took off a star (was going to give 3) is because of some personal issues I have with them. When picking up an order here, you get a notification to say, come to the store. That happens to me when I pick up take out in a lot of places, these days, and when I do, it is either ready, or it takes 5 more min or 10 more min (because they mark it ready when it is not. Generally I'm okay with it, if it's less than 10 min. Candente? 20 min or 30 min. Even when it's not busy. They'll mark orders as ready (to make themselves look efficient I imagine) even when they are completely dead, and then will not actually start cooking the order until you get there to pick it up (I know, because I see people come in at the same time I'm there to pick up, order a similar thing, and 20-30 min theirs and mine comes out at a similar time). So just frustrating, is all. The owner is a Texan guy from Kingwood, he also owns the Pit Room BBQ nearby, which is similarly very fancy and successful. Don't let my bad experiences here put you off from trying it. If you want a list of real Mexican gems (and mostly dirt cheap), ask me, but you won't find any Tex Mex on there at all, to be honest. Just not my thing, in the same way that I think American Chinese take away has nothing on Chinese Chinese, such as Sichuan or Xi'an or Hunan cooking.
