    Tomatillo chicken chilaquiles over medium egg
    Scott R.

    first time eating here and it didn't not disappoint. We had the chilaquiles one with chicken with tomatillo sauce and the other other beef with Guajillo sauce. both were delicious and service was fast and friendly. Don't let the location fool you once you enter you feel like you're in a mexican cafe and the ambiance is nice.

    Nachos OMG!

    The food and the green sauce is always great. We had a chance to sit down. Love the variety of music. The ladies are always nice and service is really well good.

    Why no? Let's eat

    Great place! Great food!!! They give you chips and salsa and that's a plus. The service is great, they are very friendly!! Ambiance is very chill, and relaxing! Everytime we come to the thrift store close by, we stop here and there's no regrets! The food is the closest to authentic Mexican food, they have so much to choose.

    Dichos is amazing. I've been coming here for nearly two years now and it's a solid hitter. From food quality, to portions and service, you can't go wrong. I love that there are two different salsas for the chips and enjoy the mole, menudo and breakfast items. Support local!

    Chips and Salsa and Horchata
    Kathy V.

    This place is closer to a 4.5 stars for me. The food was delicious minus the corn, but don't let that stop you from trying this place. The Horchata was refreshing, but slightly sweeter than I expected it to be. The service was ok for me. I felt like there was a slight language barrier, so service felt a little slow for me. The restaurant was not too loud and great for friends and families to join for a fair price meal.

    Our friend took us to this authentic spot for a true Tex mex breakfast, and it hit the spot. My huevos scramble with tortillas on the side was perfect to make my own breakfast tacos. The tortillas were warm and delicious. The mega breakfast taco was also probably a favorite dish at the table. The chips and salsas were so tasty and flavorful too! We had to get dessert - the churros were so soft and filled with delicious cream. Great no frills, cheap but quality Tex mex!

    Their aguas frescas are so good! Like that you can pick other sides besides rice & beans. Their corn tortillas are so good! Good service, everyone is nice.

    Breakfast tacos
    Alice L.

    I love dichos! They have such great portions and their breakfast tacos are amazing. They have healthy options too if that's what you're looking for. I've ordered grilled chicken with sides and you can choose plain corn on the cob, steamed veggies, potatoes, rice etc. My favorite thing to order is the breakfast tacos. I've never had such delicious homemade flour tortillas. They're so soft and smell heavenly. You can choose to have refried beans in your tacos and I would highly suggest trying them. They stuff their tacos pretty full and it's such good value.

    I've been to Dicho's twice now and the second time has me sold. The soup I ordered the first time was just okay and was way smaller than they said it would be on the phone so it was a bit overpriced imo. There was also too much dry shredded white chicken in it, it just wasn't great. What convinced me to go back is the tiny side of red salsa they gave me - SO GOOD. I'm really interested in going back and eating in person so I can practically drink the stuff. The second time I ordered the fish tacos plate and I love that not only does it come with 3 sides but they have a wide range of options. I'm really happy I went back because those are some of the best fish tacos I've ever had. The downsides are that guy at the front who takes to go orders has an apathetic and unfriendly attitude both on the phone and in person during both visits. It's hard to convey in a succinct review, but it's really off-putting. And they're really stingy on the to-go salsa and charge for to-go chips, which is weird because it's served unlimited on the tables. It's also weird that they have store bought and homemade tortillas and they charge for them (but I admit, they're phenomenal). The unfriendly attitude and nickel & diming is really the reason I knock off a star but I will definitely be back.

    Menudo .

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.

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.
