    Fajita torta, but where's the fajita?!?!
    Ismael C.

    Absolute worst quality take out! Ordered a fajita torta and as seen on the pictures, you have to scavenge for a piece of meat.the other was a milanesa torta it was the worst cut of meat possible! Completely inedible! Sadly the quality of this restaurant has dramatically sunk beyond TERRIBLE. An employee previously told me that it was because of the owner .... Which I find this to be extremely concerning, I understand everyone is feeling this recession but I figured as an owner you would at least try to keep the customers happy and try to continue to serve the community and people that have kept you in business all these years!!! Absolutamente la peor calidad para llevar! Pedí una torta de fajita y, como se ve en las fotos, tienes que buscar un trozo de carne. La otra era una torta de milanesa, ¡era el peor corte de carne posible! ¡Completamente no comestible! Lamentablemente, la calidad de este restaurante se ha hundido dramáticamente más allá de TERRIBLE. Un empleado me dijo anteriormente que era por culpa del dueño.... Lo cual me parece extremadamente preocupante, entiendo que todos están sintiendo esta recesión, pero pensé que, como propietario, al menos deberías tratar de mantener contentos a los clientes y seguir sirviendo a la comunidad y a las personas que te han mantenido en el negocio durante todos estos años!!

    Food came out room temperature. The Nacho chips were soggy and the cheese on top was already stiff getting to the table. The gorditas Do Not Include melted cheesy queso, they said you must ask for it(which was not told abt/we had no clue). They come with your choice or protein, queso fresco, lettuce and tomato's. Regularly. The taco meat was bland, it didn't taste like pastor either and didn't come as a hot warm plate

    2022 Green enchiladas
    Smith Family O.

    Today was not good here at all. We walked in and the AC was off. Sign number one. We ordered the Huevos Mexicanos and the Potatoes with eggs. The beans tasted sour as well as the chilaquiles. The red sauce was also sour. Our waitress took our plates and explained that people have different tastes and that the kitchen staff tried out what we returned and said it was lacking condiments but it didn't taste bad to them. They took another order from us but we weren't trying to get sick so we just ordered egg, potato and bacon tacos just in case. This is the second time this has happened here but really thought the first time was just our taste buds. Coffee is good here as well as the service but I don't know what happened today. I don't think we'll be coming back here. They finally turned on the AC and hour after being here.

    Slime in the ice machine
    Joy H.

    Whew.. after spending $100+ for family of 5 I feel like we were ROBBED! Slime in the ice machine, cold enchiladas, Horrible Service, overcooked meat the list goes on. Then for the waitress to give us two dirty cups after requesting another with slime and debris floating each time AS IF SHE DIDN'T SEE IT WHILE FILLING UP THE CUP.. Then had the nerve to get mad at us? If you're looking to get sick COME HERE.

    Carne desebrada and chicharrón

    This place never disappoints me, after coming here ever since they first opened. They are conveniently open late with a wide selection of tasty food and delicious aguas frescas. Some of my favorites is their gorditas and sopes: Carne deshebrada, chicharron, nopales con queso, and papas con chorizo. Their Lemonade is always the best, perfectly balanced and sweet. Parking isn't always the best and their other waters can be a hit or a miss but despite that, I keep coming back for more. A must-try local!

    Chips n salsa are so good.
    Gloria M.

    It used to be hole in the wall gem on the Northside, conveniently located close to downtown and Lindale Park. Irs been about a year since my last visit.. Gorditas are still my favorite thing to eat here, but today my food was bland. The beans and cheese gordita was okay. The agua de piña was really refreshing. The place needs a little sprucing up, but the staff keeps it clean. My waitress was extremely nice and attentive.

    I really like this place and have been a frequent since moving to the area two years ago. I do have to complain about parking, there's usually limited parking and each are pretty small for a Ford F-250 or above. I love the Fajita Plate, their beef is always seasoned perfectly, however I do have to complain that they don't serve much. It's mostly onions and bell peppers you see. It comes with a side of frijoles a la charra, rice sour cream, guacamole, pico de Gallo and tortillas, either corn or flour. Flour are amazing! I also ordered the Enchiladas Mexicanas and they were good. They had melted white cheese on the inside topped with queso fresco in the out. It games served with refined beans and rice. The rice didn't have much flavor to it and so did the frijoles a la charra, which came with the fajitas. We will definitely be returning. Also, If I could recommend on a any improvements they would be: - provide cleaner restrooms and cleaner facilities - refine your frijoles a la recipe and rice as they were bland - improve the smell closest to the kitchen

    Tacos al carbon lunch special.  Delicioso!
    Kelly K.

    Give this place a chance! Absolutely delicious lunch special. Tacos al carbon- i loved that they come with grilled spring onions with the bulbs attached. Nice pico, delicious salsa. And the margarita was fresh and delicious. Strong too which is rare. One large put me down for a siesta.

    Chilaquiles
    Jeremy T.

    Took a friend from out of town here right before an astros game. It was pretty convenient and we were on our quest to visit all new places anyway. They received pretty good reviews on yelp.. ...which helped us make our decision too. Salsa is a good indicator to tell how the main entrees will taste. A red and a green comes to the table with fresh tortilla chips. I preferred the red over the green, and neither were really spicy. Service was outstanding from start to finish. The manager (or owner) greeted us immediately and took us to one of the few booths in the main room. We both ordered the melon aguas which were good, but not that thick. For food, we ordered the 3 fajita tacos, taco de papas con chorizo, and chilaquiles with sliced avocado. The food was all delicious and we both easily cleaned our plates. Friend said the fajita meat is not seasoned that much, which is common at houston area taquerias anyway, I was used to it. We both ordered small liquados to go, friend ordered strawberry and I had a banana. Overall, we both noticed the aguas and liquados to be a little thinner than the place we had visited the day before, in Gulfgate area. Prices for both were also a little more too. We would still come back again, if we're ever in the area.

For drinks, my husband and our friends tried some of the margaritas from their large and unique margaritas menu, as well as their hibiscus agua fresca. All of the drinks were very pretty and it seemed like everyone enjoyed them, too! We started with their chips and salsa trio, which we all really liked. The chips were on the thicker side, but were crispy and not stale or chewy at all. Each of the salsas were quite different, and two were served warm, which we really liked! For the price, I'd consider getting the chips and salsa as a non-negotiable, honestly. For entrees, we tried the enchilada rojas, chilaquiles verde w/ chicken and beef, birria barbacoa ramen, and huaraches. My husband felt like his ramen could have included more meat, but aside from that everyone really enjoyed what they ordered. The highlight was probably the desserts, though! We got a quatro leches and two ordered of their giant and amazing churros. Both were incredibly tasty and reason enough to return for another visit in the future!

The "queso" w/carne seemed to be out of a can-it was orange & didn't have the consistency of real cheese- wasn't really cheese & was disgusting. It was $9.99. I am including a photo of the overcooked beef fajita. A senior citizen can get the all beef lunch fajita special for virtually the same price as the fajita combo here ALL DAY at Pappasitos. It definitely is enough for 2. The meat melts in your mouth. EVERYTHING is better quality than here. Teo charged $1.50 for perhaps 4 or 5 slices of lime to make the happy hour margaritas made with a gross mix drinkable. That's outrageous. It reminds me that I had stopped going long ago when they charged extra for onions on enchiladas. Come on. You don't charge extra for chopped onions! I have never been to another restaurant that does so. Some even provide carmelized grilled onions gratis. I'm convinced that a $15. YUMMY mango margarita at Pappasitos would have given us the same buzz & tasted better than 8 happy hour margaritas here. I used to love the in house made flour tortillas at Teo. Tonight they were tough & uneventful. We arrived on a week night when they were not busy. Neither of the salsas were as good as they used to be.The water pitcher didn't even have ice when they refilled the water. I have absolutely no desire to return. Why would I?

The restaurant has an intimate indoor space and adjacent covered patio. Both were already full when we arrived which created a lively atmosphere. The inside was so tasteful - small but moody and warm! I'd definitely recommend a reservation for the weekends! We started with the aguachile de camaron as a starter and WOW my husband cannot stop talking about this dish. The perfect blend of textures and flavors - this will be a must for us every visit. We have had our eyes on the 5-course Chef Tasting Menu for $49 + the optional beverage pairing for $30. The experience felt more than fair for the price, especially by Houston standards. Each course felt thoughtful and slightly boundary-pushing, yet really approachable. My partner and I have been on a bit of a mole kick recently, so were very excited for the hanger steak with truffle mole. It absolutely delivered and would love to order this again! We were also heavily drawn to the tuna tartare starter, masa cornbread, and tres leches. The wine and drink parings were perfect and not too fruity. The brut rose was a perfect way to start and I always love a mezcal cocktail. I highly recommend anyone visiting to start with this Tasting Menu and leave the stress in the hands of Chef Adrian Torres! We had the pleasure of chatting with him briefly after our meal and were so impressed with his story and clear excitement he brings. The rest of the staff were equally kind and really added to the evening! Side note: We had the pleasure to attend Maximo's Cinco de Mayo block party and were so impressed by the community involvement bringing in local vendors and live music. I'll definitely be keeping an eye on this restaurant for future tasting menus and events.

We also got the "Tiradito de Hamachi" crudo, which was fresh and delicious! For the entree, my friend and I shared the tacos (which comes with your choice of 3). We added an extra taco to make it 4. I was genuinely shocked that the mushroom taco ended up being my favorite because I almost always prefer meat, but it was THAT good. The fried shrimp taco was also amazing. For dessert, we got the tres leches cake. I'm usually not a huge fan of strawberry or fruit toppings on desserts, but the cake itself was really, really good. I ended up just removing the strawberries and eating the cake, which was moist and flavorful. The only downside for me was the drinks. They looked larger than they actually were because of the glassware, and they tasted a little watered down. I had two, and they just weren't very strong or super flavorful. Other than that though, the food and service absolutely made up for it. Definitely a spot I'd come back to!

Party of 9 and we were seated promptly. They have a lunch menu and a happy hour as well as a full menu and full bar. The interior was nicely decorated. And open. There is bar seating and patio seating as well. Our waitress was Aisha and she was amazing. Friendly, helpful and patient. And able handle our large group and a few more tables with a smile. There were a variety of options. Salads, fajitas, nachos, enchiladas, etc. Also complimentary chips and salsa. My Order: chicken tortilla soup, lunch fajitas combo - chicken and beef. Chicken tortilla soup (3.5/5) - it was a bit salty for me but I am not a salt person so most things are salty to me; everyone else said it was tasty, there were tons of shredded chicken, avocado pieces, tortilla strips Fajitas - combo (4/5) - chicken was seasoned well and the beef (medium rare) was perfection and so tender and juicy, mexican rice was fluffy, and normally I would pass on the beans and get extra rice but my coworker suggested the charro beans and wow, that was a win - the seasoning was great, there were chunks of meat and the texture was nice, the only thing that could have been done better is the flour tortillas - they over-charred them making them too crispy and left them with a burnt taste. A couple of people got the elote salad and raved about it. So that will be a next time try. Def will be back. Everyone enjoyed their meals and some even ordered food to go. Would recommend.
