Iguana Joe's - 01.13.26 - southwest egg rolls - Mexican Near Me - Mont Belvieu, Texas

The establishment is nice and it's right off the highway. Great stop if you're traveling on the road. Came here with the kids and I love that there's an outdoor playground for them to enjoy. All the food was good for the most part. However, I ordered the Mahi Del Sol and it was overcooked. I didn't bother sending it back. I was hoping it would be more moist and flavorful so I was gravely disappointed. The service was decent too, but not exceptional. I don't live in the area, so I most likely won't be coming back. So overall, good experience. However it could have been great had the mahi been cooked better and more enthusiastic service read more

I ordered some T-Dawg bowls to go for me and my boss. I got the Steak with Corn tortillas. It was all still warm when I got back to work. The filling was delicious with the queso in it. The corn tortillas were also delicious, but much smaller than his flour tortillas. I did run out of tortillas before I ran out of filling, and the chips, while tasty, were too weak to scoop the filling up without breaking. It was extra good to drizzle some of the avocado sauce over the filling before closing up the tortillas. I would order it again, but try the flour tortillas next time. read more

Iguana Joe's - Chicken Changitos to-go - Mexican Near Me - Mont Belvieu, Texas

Historically a wonderful Tex-mex spot, but it's not the same cantina we all use to love, smaller, more expensive Portions while food quality has been sacrificed at the altar of the mighty dollar. The alcohol drink prices are atrocious, please read the menu carefully to see what they are charging read more

10/10 restaurant. The best, gorgeous, funny, makes great shots and the coldest drinks, Miranda!!! La mejor highly recommend!!!!

Came here a few weekends ago for a friends birthday. They were absolutely packed which was a super good sign. It was difficult to park, but we eventually found a spot. We started with their queso which was super good, and of course we had to have margaritas. We also split a sampler and their cheese enchiladas. The sampler was awesome, and super filling. The cheese enchiladas were good too, and I think we actually ordered too much food lol. Overall, we we really enjoyed everything here and would eat here again. read more

Ibe been here many times, but this may be my first review. Parking: Large lot. But always crowded Service Excellent. Very attentive, accommodating and funny. Price: A bit high. In my opinion. Drinks are $15 , why? Other places may be similar. Dining: Always very cold. Bring a jacket if you tend to be cold. Nice family atmosphere. . . INCLUDED: Icecream. Cones were very fresh. They opened a new box for us. read more

I've been here a few times and the food is great! Great customer service too. Food: the taco plate I got was top notch. Man the mini tacos had so much flavor!

I have been here a few times but I can't remember what I got in the past but the pics are from my most recent visit. The service is always really good too. This will always be one of my go to spots. read more

We arrived at 6:30pm on a Saturday. The wait time was 30 min. First and foremost and waitresses was a champ. We had a large group and loud kids. All of our orders where correct. Although she disappeared for quit some time, she did a great job The wait time for the food was average....20 min or so. Green sauce 10/10 Salsa 10/10 Chips 10/10 Pollo Marisco was server cold. I requested the poblano sauce instead of the sauce it came with. The portion size was huge. The flavors where lack a bit. 7/10 Borracho Beans where good, needed a little spice though. 8/10 read more

This was our first stop of our Baytown, Texas trip and it was a great experience. We came in on a Wednesday (Thankfully) and it was not busy at all. Service, food and drinks were really fast and great. Our Waitress took care of us and made sure the food was delivered the "Joe's Way" and it did not disappoint! Definitely recommend this TexMex Restaurant. read more

I called in to go order. Fairly simple, one chicken fajita taco, and sliced avocado with tax and everything was almost $15! And when I got home, I had a beef fajita taco, not chicken. read more

So please read to the end before basing a decision on my review because my expectations may be different from yours. Full disclosure: I am not from this area and did not realize that this was a chain/franchised restaurant until after I was seated. There is a difference between these restaurants and a "Mom & Pop" establishment. In the positive column, the restaurant was spacious with a nice "Tex Mex" décor. It was clean and our server was very attentive and perfect in every way. It's proximity to the highway makes it an easy on/off for the traveler or the person who wants to grab a meal before getting into the big city of "Houston". The food was okay at best. If you are looking for something with a homemade taste, this might not be what you are looking for. At least concerning what we ordered; I don't think that they can make the claim of "fresh not frozen". I would have to say there were items on our table that were purchased prepared and not fresh. The appetizer was a little cool in the center, which might be a sign that there was a microwave oven involved. The chips & salsa were very good, but I'm a little disappointed when they stand out over the meal. That brings us to value. I said that the food was okay, but the prices, not so much. It was champagne prices for "Milwaukee's Best" beer. The tab was pretty steep considering that we had some of the least expensive items on the menu and no alcohol. Comparing it to some other Mexican restaurants that I've recently patronized, it was overpriced even if the food had been much better. Those are my findings, but you are welcome to take your own data. Especially in these economic times, I lean hard on value when I purchase anything. Iguana Joe's did not quite hit the mark for me. read more

Great location for an amazing meal when in the Baytown/ Mont Belvieu area. Located just off of 1-10. Highly recommend the Soup/ Salad Combo of Tortilla Soup and Pompeii Salad. The visit didn't disappoint as far as the food, however, the service was very short and hurried. Being that it was a Sunday and a rush, this can be quite understandable and the serving staff did the best they could. read more

Excellent food and service! Consistently the best Tex mex food I have ever eaten! Excellent bartenders and service is amazing Food comes out fast and always perfectly prepared! read more

Solid, decent Tex-Mex food. Service is usually pleasant and quick. The Mont Belvieu location is almost always packed so anticipate a wait and a very complicated parking lot. My main complaint is a common complaint of the long-time patron... the prices have soared over time, which is true. But the quality is consistent and while I have never been wowed by the food here, I have rarely been disappointed. The stuffed avocado is excellent and their burrito with chili gravy is a personal favorite. read more

This is a great Tex-Mex place! Their green sauce with chips is SO delicious and creamy. I always look forward to this sauce to eat with chips while waiting for my food to come. I really like the amazon wrap from here. They also have a really good lunch special on the weekdays for a great price too! I got the lunch chicken quesadilla. It comes with guac and sour cream. It was the perfect portion for me. There is plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors. Be prepared that service may be a little slower whenever it is very busy. read more

The soup is a must try! Especially if you're not feeling well or can't really eat solid foods due to dental work or post surgery! It did all it needed to do after my root canal! I'm debating on a second helping as I write this now! read more

This restaurant is a DISASTER!!! We came on a Friday night and the service was HORRIBLE! The waitress brought my margarita (pictured) and it was the wateriest frozen drink ever. I returned it and they brought another that was even more watered down. Not to mention our waitress spilled it in our queso and never even acknowledged it. She sat it on the table and acted as though nothing happened. ‍ Our food took forever! Once it finally came, one of the entrees was missing because our waitress forgot to put it in. Management did come to our table and offer apologies, which we appreciate. read more

Great food and good service. Been going there for years . Maria is the best manager.

Perfect place to stop for an after work drink and snack. The drink were wonderfully made to perfection by our bartender Ruby T. She was sweet and funny. It was the perfect day with a small crowd at the bar to unwind for the day to drink and listen to music and chat! Thank you. read more

Keren took great care of us! I was skeptical of the skinny margarita but she assured me it was delicious and it was. My husband ordered an Iguana Garden Heat and liked it. Even the guy who brought our food was impressed by the presentation and asked what he'd ordered. I am gluten-free and was thrilled to see they have a dedicated menu just for us. I got to eat the table chips and the salsa, as well as the green sauce. I got the pollo a la parilla with borracho beans and it was heavenly. My husband got the pollo marisco and was equally impressed. (He's not gluten free so he could eat the rice.) The ambiance here is great. The service was FAST. And everyone was friendly. We will be back! read more

The day one OG of MontBelvieu! It's almost against God to eat at any other Tex-Mex spot in MB other than this place. Kids use a slang term today that goes "Support your local bakery", well this place is it. It was around when the town was nothing but a single dirt road and its still standing as almost everyone's favorite local spot! The only negative I can say is I wish they were able to make mocktail Margaretas with no alcohol. That new Bomb-Pop Margherita looks amazing but I don't drink, I ask for it without alcohol everytime I go knowing it's not possible, but it just looks soooo good! Anyway, go support your local bakery. They are always adding new items and that is a sign of a place who hasn't given up and refuses to rest on its delicious laurels. read more

I love this place. My fiancé took me here on our first date. I usually get the queso burrito with fresh jalepeno on the side. Yummy food

Take out was fast and food decent for texmex. Service with a smile, ambiance is loud.

I live in the Houston loop but work in Baytown. I wish they had places like this in Houston. Great place for lunch, HH, dinner and even kids. The bar area is nice and love the atmosphere. Th service is great and our waiter was very responsive. The food was soo good. By far my favorite green salsa ever! (And i eat a lot of Mexican good :)) the red salsa was good too. Queso was amazing! The lunch specials are very well priced and there are a lot of options. We went at lunch while at work and we didn't have an issue of getting back on time. Good came out fast and we did not have to wait very long. Over all a great place! read more

It took a while before a server stopped by to check on me, but once done, the experience got so much better. I had never had a stuffed avocado and had no idea what that was. I should have asked. Breaded, deep fried and covered in cheese sauce. None of which my stomach likes. However, once I got to the parts I could eat, I enjoyed my meal. After a conversation with Judith, I now know how to order this item so I can eat with wild abandon and not have to pick through it. The flavors were good and I enjoyed my meal. I would definitely return to this location! Love the animatronic iguana in front! read more

They're free and loose with the chips and dip. We were basically full of chips by the time the food arrived. I got the baja tacos with grilled fish. I appreciated the jalapeño and pico de gallo that came on the side, because otherwise the tacos themselves weren't that strongly flavored (sauce wise). Not necessarily a bad thing, I think you're supposed to taste the fish. If I got it again, I'd try the grilled shrimp tacos instead. read more

Prices have become more expensive.. a quesadilla use to cost a little more than $10. Now it is almost $20. The thing that irks me is there is less meat and more cheese now as well. Not to mention the meat is burnt! Never again will we go here. We rather go to Houston to eat tex mex. read more
