Weak drinks. Bad crowds. Mediocre food. I've tried it twice, and just received confirmation. At least the prices are high.

It's absolutely horrible. The general manager Jake does not care about the customers nor does his assistant and the waitress is beyond rude. If you're planning a party or get together with your friends or your family, please note that they only allow one drink per guest at one time. He always refused to give the other names! I seriously believe this is the worst customer service I've ever had. I do not recommend this place to anyone. Go here if you want to be disrespected. Free location in Montgomery County and surrounding counties that Conroe location is a joke. Take your business e elsewhere someone that will actually appreciate it because they do not care high prices and no high-end attitude. Cheddars next door has more class! Do better read more

Went in for a late dinner and had chicken tortilla soup and one of their signature chicken plates. All was delicious and service at the bar was great. FYI they have a two drink per person limit. read more

I'm a big Gringo's fan coming from the Katy area, I have to say because of the consistency of the food quality. For a TexMex chain they are pretty darn good. You get good flavor, texture, variety and quantity for a very reasonable price. No it's not Escalantes or Ninfa's on Navigation but for a good solid chain, it's very good. The service was excellent. The margarita was average but very good price especially at happy hour. The chicarrons are very good and excellent with queso. I was there for my birthday lunch so I enjoyed it very much. I am certainly going to make a return visit very soon! read more

Gringo's Conroe - Chiccirones - Tex-Mex Near Me - Conroe, Texas

**Go online and get on the waitlist! This place can get packed and have a long wait. We got online and were seated in 10 minutes once we arrived.** This place is great for groups with large seating options. Our waitress was friendly and helpful with substitutions. It was a little tricky because the wait staff didn't know the answer to our questions when bringing out our food. The margaritas were delicious and large. Would definitely go again! read more

The ZAPATA plate got my interest and I was pleased to have ordered it. It comes with a first course of cheesy tostado with a beef taco. The second course was two enchiladas, rice, & beans. Don't forget to get the free ice cream cone in the way out. They had chocolate and vanilla. So good! read more

Disappointment. If you're raised in Texas, how can you mess up Tex-Mex? Let me further preface by saying the service was excellent. But on that same note, it was obvious that once it was realized that the food was not received well, remind you that we made no complaints, the service dropped off. Why voice disappointment in food that is obviously representative of the restaurant. And it wasn't just the food. The drinks were, at best, average. This was my first experience at this restaurant chain and my expectations were high. I chose it specifically because of the ratings but I should've paid more attention to the few low scores that I saw because later I reread those and I agree. My salad, was nothing special. It was the southwest shrimp salad. The entire thing tasted of lettuce and now I know why they give five sauces to smother their food in. However, the sauce that I was given, while you would expect it to be tasty, was quite bland. My mom ordered the taco salad to be safe. Good thing she did because it actually tasted a bit on the Taco Bell side, which would mean at least edible. My comments here are not to slam the food because obviously lots of people enjoy it, but I do want to give a heads up to those people who actually like a tasty, spicy, flavorful dish that would be a representative of a Tex-Mex meal to perhaps make choices differently than we did. And to be the devil's advocate, I had read that the restaurant is known for their street tacos. Perhaps those are their Wow factor. read more

Gringo's Conroe - The view from the highway - Tex-Mex Near Me - Conroe, Texas

12/26/25-had a get together of 7 here the day after Christmas. I like this location better than the Woodlands even though it is a few miles further from my house, it is worth it. We were seated in about 10 minutes. The waitress was on the ball. Our food was hot and fresh. As crazy as it may sound, I've always liked Gringo's better than Pappasito's. They are not overpriced and the quality and quantity is excellent. we all had some type of margarita, and even with that, our bill was only about $240 before tip. Plus, since I bought gift cards, I've got $40 worth of bonus gift cards to use later. Owner, Russell Ybarra, knows how to run a business. read more

We've been eating there 3 times a week since they opened! Food is good but received e mails twice in the last month for their $5.00 house margaritas but was billed full amount both times. Fuck them !!! There are too many good TexMex restaurants in Conroe that don't rip you off such as Rancho Grande and 7 Leguas where the food is just as good and so are the margaritas. read more

The only complaint I have is the wait and that's on getting in and waitress wait. I love Gringo's!

Best place in town! Chicken fajitas are amazing. Chips are awesome. Wait staff is very friendly. We love this place.

Gringos. An amazing place with amazing food. Well sized portions and decorations that use up half of Conroe's electricity. I love a heavily decorated restaurant because it gives it more character. Also too, our servers were saints. Complimenting and sharing about their experiences with the food we had ordered. Overall, a great restaurant and experience all around. read more

I should have taken the hint that there might be a problem when I saw a row of "help wanted" signs posted in front of the restaurant that there could be problems. But I didn't, we parked and went inside. The decor in the restaurant is very nice. There was a line at the hostess stand. The server was polite, but food delivery took a loooong time. We started with queso, and--like always--it was great! We ordered tortilla soup and chicken fajitas. After a short wait, our server told us that she just checked and the kitchen was running behind, and it would be another ten minutes or so for our meal. The food arrived, the fajitas sizzling, but the chicken appeared to be a "scary pink" color, not like usual. The tortilla soup looked fine and we dug in. With my fork, I pressed the fajitas down on the scalding skillet, hoping they would cook fully. But the tortilla soup was not hot; it was only lukewarm--it did not melt the cheese when we added the add-in ingredients. The server never came back to ask how things were until we were very finished. We told her our concerns. She apologized and said that a lapse in quality is unusual for a Wednesday (?). So it's common on other days? She changed the topic and handed us our check, which she said she brought us for "our convenience". For me, it's time to reconsider visiting this restaurant. Maybe I'll give them some time to restaff and work out their issues. read more

I was craving Mexican food, and Gringo's had been recommended. I was planning to get it to go order. I didn't really like their waiting area for to go, so I asked if I could sit at the bar and have a cold drink while I was waiting. I ended up sitting at the bar and chatting with a friendly bartender. The facility is relatively new and well decorated. They have three good size televisions right over the bar so I was able to watch a basketball game while eating. I had a pastor bowl, which came with black beans and rice. It was quite tasty, but more than I could eat. The complementary chips and salsa were very good, but their green salsa, which is usually made with tomatillos, seems to have been made with sour cream and was very good. read more

I used to enjoy this place weekly. They removed my Jim Beam and are not bringing it back. Time for me to find a new location. I am not sure how you can have someone drink the number one bourbon and you removed it. Wow. read more

Food was good, as usual. The service was good. Like that they still provide both the red and green sauce with the chips (not all restaurants are doing that anymore). Overall, good Tex-Mex restaurant. Will return. read more

Eh. It's ok. It's loud and crowded with an older 55+ crowd. Their food is just ok, and their drinks are watered down or just low on the alcohol to start with. Slow service, bad parking, and too expensive for the food quality. Their drink minimum is stupid and their food is just too mediocre for me to want to go more often. read more

Good and bad here. Shrimp enchiladas good dish. The fried shrimp on the plate were not cleaned properly. Nobody wants to bite into a poop chute. Manager replaced, but took awhile. We sat at the bar, took a long time for refills on drinks. My Tijuana Twister was supposed to have been topped with 151 rum, didn't get it. With the slow service, finished the drink before could get her attention. Ordered Sopapillas as dessert. Menu showed a regular expected size with powdered sugar and honey dipping sauce. We got mini ravioli sized pastry drenched in caramel and brown sugar. Not great. Could have been better... read more

Rude to go counter girl. I placed a curbside and decided just to go inside and pick it up. Counter girl was rude!

I don't usually leave reviews, but after my experience with Andrea, I had to share how amazing she is! From the moment we walked in, Andrea greeted us with a warm smile and a great attitude that instantly made us feel welcome. She was super attentive without being overbearing, had awesome recommendations (seriously, take her advice on the tacos and the house margarita - perfection!), and checked in just the right amount throughout our meal. It's clear she genuinely cares about her guests having a great time. On top of that, Andrea handled our group with total ease - even when we got a little loud and indecisive . She kept things fun and upbeat the entire time. Gringos is lucky to have someone like Andrea - she made our night! If you're headed there, ask for her. You won't regret it! read more

Love their margaritas!!! Wonderful service every time. We always enjoy their steak fajitas and burritos. Great for kids as they can get free ice cream at the end :) We also love their welcoming, clean and bright ambiance (we go there during lunch times or before 7 pm so it's always bright). read more

We ventured into the newest Gringos location and the place is hopping. Despite a waiting list, and it being a Saturday's we were still sat relatively quickly and the staff was friendly. Some seem a little green but that is to be expected. The inside is the same consistent and expected decor with large berths, neon lights, and a central bar. I do, however, miss the large doors and horns the Rosenberg location has. The food came out pretty quickly and the fare was as good and consistent as ever. Gotta love that Amazon sauce. And Gotta love the Cabo salad. Yes it is Tex-Mex. But it is the apex of that style of fun loving, easy going, and family friendly venues. read more

We love it here. Good food good service good atmosphere. Clean environment and consistent.

Only been in Texas for less than a year. We tried having dinner based on recommendations. We definitely will not go back. Service was ok but food was terrible. We pushed our plates to the side half full. read more

Food was good, had the pastor skillet and was not disappointed, nice interior and exterior design, the best part was service, our hostess and waitress were both excellent, pleasant, and attentive read more

I like the Tortilla soup and ask for a lime on the side as gives it a great flavor added to ! It's a bust place and so popular so add a bit of time and very good service... enjoy read more

Excellent service, great fajitas and cheese enchiladas. Donovan is a friendly and skilled bartender!

We didn't eat here! We did reserve. seating ahead of, checked in at the time they texted us. They said we canceled our reservation, we did not. We showed them our text confirmation then they said someone else took our reservation and we would have to be put on the bottom of the wait list? What? Truly unbelievable. Never been treated so poorly at a restaurant. If this service is representative of their food, it's garbage. Pappasitos has this place beat hands down, and really Taco Bell has better service. read more

OK we're from San Diego where they have the best Mexican food you drive up to any type of taco shop and get awesome food we don't like tech mix but this place my husband got a chimichanga which was completely fried not like in North Carolina so it was awesome..... I got the chicken taquitos which I was expecting for but I got eight!!!!! It was Super Bowl Sunday so we had Super Bowl food for later lol Art super cute girl who was serving us was from Australia and she was wonderful if we were going to be in the area longer we would definitely come back.!!!! read more

We used to go to Fajita Jacks all the time but the drive is pretty long despite it being not too far. This location is down the road and i'm so glad because the drinks are always great. The service is always quick and attentive. Downside is, it's busy and parking can be a pain but for two people, it's nice to just head there after work and sit at the bar. read more

Gringo's Conroe - Steak Quesadilla and Tortilla Soup. - Tex-Mex Near Me - Conroe, Texas

The location is relatively new to the area. I like the chain overall, but gave it some time for the newness to wear off before trying them. Let me start by saying I'm NOT a Tex Mex fan and avoid Mexican food at all costs. So giving this location 5 stars means they exceeded my expectations. Not only is the service pleasant and accommodating, so are the managers. The food comes out quickly. The tortillas are light and fresh. ALL ingredients are fresh. And thank Heavens they are lenient with the salt that I can enjoy my meal without needing to bottom out on water. I stuck with fajitas on both visits which were within weeks apart. I do prefer the chicken over the beef, but both are prepared well. My drink was on point without tasting like nothing but juice. Seating and parking is appropriate. And I like the overall vibe and light that enters the building. My company on both visits were also pleased with their meals. I'll be happy to start visiting more often. read more

Food was delicious, drinks were perfect , waitstaff was on point. Free soft serve ice cream was a nice touch!

Gringo's of Conroe has never let us down. Today was no different. We had an outstanding lunch experience. The food was perfectly prepared, the atmosphere was great, and the service was exceptional. Our server, Hayden, was courteous, professional, and attentive without being overbearing. Hayden sets the bar high! read more

Tonight was opening night in Conroe and it was AMAZING! The wait looked bad walking in. It took several minutes to get to the hostess booth. They told me it was about a 35 minute wait. Not bad at all. It was around 5:15 and they were getting slammed. The inside looks great. Lots of Tex-Mex touch that add to the ambiance. We only waited 30 minutes. Got the text and got seated quickly. They brought two set ups of chips and salsa (red and green). Our waitress took our drink order quickly. We ordered a small queso. Next time it will be a large. It was really good. Once we ordered our food it wasn't too long. They did get my oldest kid's meal wrong. Nachos instead of quesadillas, but the waitress was quick to notice and very apologetic. She sent the GM over to also apologize and he got them out quickly. All the food was so good!! I told me waitress I honestly couldn't tell it was opening night. I'm so glad they are here in town. Highly recommend!!! read more

We've been here at least 5 more times all Togo orders. We absolutely love the food. The cheese enchiladas are amazing, the rice with the white wine sauce poured on it is delicious. Everything has been fresh and consistent. The guacamole is also the best from any restaurant I've ever had. read more

Everyone says that Gringos is the best Mexican restaurant and they couldn't wait for it to come to Conroe. Well, it is here and I am not very impressed. We have visited twice with family who wanted to try it out and the food was good, just nothing so outstanding from the menu that I have to go back to have it again. Yes, the tacos were good and fajitas were good but I have actually had better at some of Conroe's other Mexican restaurants. The Margaritas and other drinks were good, but a bit thin on alcohol. I can deal with all of this and not rate Gringos so low, but it was the service that really killed it for me. Both times we visited the service was extremely slow. I know that it is dinner time and it is busy but I would think that you should plan accordingly to have more staff on hand to deal with 1) A busy family style restaurant at dinner hour 2) A big name chain like Gringos where many people will flock to due to the name. The reception desk was not much better. They were not friendly towards the customers and seemed to forget several customers who had been waiting longer than our group. The one thing that really did impress me was their self-serve ice cream machine in the waiting area. On a warm Texas evening, this does take the sting out of the long wait for a table and the ice cream is REALLY good! Overall, the food is average, but the service is what really is keeping me from wanting to return to Gringos. read more

Great food little pricey but good quality food Get there early if possible can if you have only one hour for lunch wouldn't go there read more
