    drinks & food

    came in on a Monday evening and from the moment we were walking towards the restaurant I was alr feeling the vibes with the music (; Customer service and food were 10/10. There's many mex restaurants in htx but not all taste like real Mex food. Props to the chef. Salsas do need more spices though.

    1 holder of chips allowed!

    Very disappointed again. This is so sad because our first time there was so nice! Management did send a gift card after the bad experience so I figured giving them the district managers card they may be different. Nope! 1 bowl of both salsas only allowed. 1 container of chips allowed. This is unheard of! Queso came out semi warm with 4 chips! Yes 4 chips! And can't order anymore because not allowed so had to take back to Austin. Ordered the 1 lb or angus beef fajitas. They came out and we questioned the amount and was told it was a pound. We each had 2 fajitas that we could only put in 2 pieces of meat in each. Had to fill up with the guacamole, sour cream and pico. A table next to us got this very large fajita platter and I asked if that was 1 pound and they said yes. We asked our waitress about the amount again and was told we got what we got. We have moved from Houston now and this was our last meal in the city. If ever back in Houston. Will NOT be coming back!

    Happy hour until 7.

    This place had some of the best fajitas in the city. There. I said it. Also, a great happy hour. If you haven't been or haven't been in awhile, come check them out.

    is it good? yes. but if you want to try the puffy queso get it stuffed otherwise it's just a taco shell ball w/cheese

    MR fajita taco al carbon as requested!!!

    Service was extremely disappointing. Perhaps I came at a shift change, but my waiter & all waiters disappeared after my food was delivered. No one checked in on me. I needed water & salsa. I stacked my dishes & pushed them onto the outer corner of my table. No one came. Eventually I had to go to the bar to get someone to bring my check. That said, I was impressed with my food. I asked if I could get the beef fajita medium rare on my taco al carbon & I did! Pappasitos is often unable to do that on an order of fajitas. I used to visit Los Tios Bellaire with my grandmother way back in the 70s. As I became old enough to drink I have vivid memories of her drinking margaritas, getting a brain freeze, touching her head & saying, "It hurts." I hope that the Bellaire location stays open so that I can visit the same location that I spent my childhood at & took my grandmother to as an adult. I will give this location another chance. I love the gorgeous decor & building.

    The service was beyond amazing! The availability of tables was communicated professionally. The staff is very friendly. The drinks are great. The food arrived to the table fresh and hot from the kitchen. The scenery and atmosphere were vibrant and busy.

    This is my favorite Los Tios location with the Westheimer store coming in close second. I enjoy the ambiance the San Felipe location provides. They have a nice bar area that is split into two sides and the main dining is also split between two sections. This helps mitigate the crowd noise during peak hours. From my experience the value is fair until you start getting into customizations. That goes primarily for alcohol but has been known to apply to certain food add ons as well. Also worth noting I have experienced the occasional stale puffy queso. I've addressed this with management where it was quickly reconciled. I would certainly recommend visiting the Los Tios San Felipe location for any occasion. Favorites include: Fajitas, tacos, guacamole, fajita enchiladas and blood orange margaritas: The only aspect I'm not a fan of is the tablets the servers are required to operate when taking an order. It creates awkward moments and is not as personable. Restaurants using this technique should advocate for a better solution.

    Enchiladas Carbon Dinner

    This review is long overdue. I'm posting this because of the wonderful service Carla always provides. It's actually been two weeks since we last dined here but I haven't forgotten how wonderful her service is and the food. It's actually my husband's favorite Tex Mex restaurant in Houston. My husband always orders the enchiladas Al carbon which consists of enchiladas beef fajitas. This was my first time ordering the Veracruz. It was red fish with a delicious sauce. My son always orders the bacon wrapped shrimp. Every time we come, we always look for a table in the bar area because it's where Carla is. She always greets us with a warm welcome.

    Supermex Bowl Easily one of the best bowls in Houston. Great price, huge portion, and I get it at least twice a week!

    Los Tios never misses! Great Mexican food, good prices, and such a fun atmosphere. The service is always friendly, and it's one of those places you keep coming back to!

In the past they would bring out a bread basket, as a free appetizer like how some mexican restaurants bring out chips and salsa, however, they dont seem to do that here anymore. Service at the table was mediocre, our waitress took our drink order and on the way over, the waitress was spilling the drinks over the floor on the way to our table. After our waitress took our order, my gf did not get the mayo on the side as she had asked, and after we received our food, our waitress never came around to check on us, didn't refill our drinks or anything. The place was very loud, louder than visiting waffle house. I was trying to have a conversation with my gf sitting just across the table from one another, and we were having to literally yell at one another just to hear what each other were saying. My gf did state that the sandwich she ordered was a big sandwich, and was more than she could finish. Once we were ready to go, our waitress still hadn't been around to check on us. So I had to flag down someone else, to get us some to go boxes, and our check. Low and behold, when I was ready to checkout, the waitress appears out of nowhere, after all this time, I'm guessing because she thought she was going to get a good tip. I'm sorry, waitstaff only get a great tip from me, once and if they perform a great job duty, and this was not the case in this matter. Maybe, better luck next time, maybe Papas needs to hire better waitstaff worth hiring and keeping.

Undercooked potatoes, overcooked chicken, not a single person at the table of 4 adults had a good thing to say about their meal 5) It took 2 FREAKING HOURS with no one there.

Thanks for telling our 3 small children that at 9:30. Reluctantly after telling him no several times it was awkward enough to cave. Cookie took about 20 minutes to come out. We had been there for over 2 hours at that point and we had to just get up and leave. If you go to this restaurant after reading this, you deserve the horrible experience you will certainly have.

We shared a bowl of the potato soup where we had no expectations and I thought it tasted pretty decent. But the real test was the entrees. Mr. Picky ordered the Fettuccine Alfredo with shrimp while I opted for Veal Parmigiana, and we each stole a bite from the other's plate. We reached consensus immediately that both dishes were well-seasoned and quite delicious, meaning we would return for more good food in the future. Seriously, we hadn't expected much when walking in and looking around, but were pleasantly surprised at the kitchen's efforts. We finished lunch with an order of homemade bread pudding and tiramisu, the latter of which in 2012 won a chamber of commerce epicurean competition 1st place ribbon. I wasn't there to judge that competition and have had better, but sincerely appreciated the moistness of the bread pudding. While the majority of diners were older and a more mature crowd, there's a lot to be said for value, and we thought the menu price was better than reasonable and I think a lot of people will discover this as a value destination, something we all appreciate.
