OMG this place is so worth the drive! First the owner and staff are so friendly as they sat and explained how they got started and how each of the menu items were created as well as prepared. The food was out of this world. My wife got the Trompo tacos and she wanted to lick the plate when she was done because they were so juicy and flavorful. I went way out of my comfort zone and order the Enmoladas, mole enchiladas, WOW is all I can say. The mole had a great taste that had just a hint of heat which brought out the chocolate flavor perfectly. I will be back. Sorry Yelpers on the photo as I started to eat the Enmoladas before I realized I hadn't take a photo so you don't get to enjoy the perfection but I couldn't wait to jump in with it smelling so good. read more

Great experience. Chicken mole enchiladas were excellent. I'd recommend them. Friend had street tacos and said they were good - Tuesday special. Flan for dessert very good. Nice people - good service. I'd go back if it were closer to home. read more

What terrific tacos! Our waitress had great recommendations. The salsas weren't my jam. Can't wait to have tacos there again.

A very Mexican restaurant atmosphere very inviting and warm. The food was delicious. The staff were extremely friendly. The food came out hot well prepared. I felt like it was a good quantity for the price. I'm not a super fan of Tex-Mex and so glad that this Mexican restaurant exist to be able to serve up that authentic Mexican flavor And red salsa are very flavorful came out of the refrigerator fresh read more

Description for platillo Alambre states black Angus steak. I paid $4.20 to add shrimp but all I got was shrimp. I did not want the mixed with chicken, shrimp and steak which I ordered before for .$4.20. It says +4.20 for shrimp. That means I am paying more to add shrimp which I was ok for. Your description should not have steak if the base is really bacon, onion, pepper and cheese with rice and beans. It should say to add the protein you want chiken, shrimp, steak or mixed the price for each addition is...Your description is deceptive. I never ever write a review but I am tired of restaurants deseptive descriptions and not getting what I ordered. If I was at the restaurant, I would also have gotten complementary chips and salsa but I didn't get that either. read more

How have I not been here? Very full and fun menu. I mailed it in with ribeye tacos and they were amazing. Steak was so tender. We also had the flautas appetizer. Can't get over how fresh and made to order everything was. Wife had a mango margaritas with tajin and was very pleased. My daughter had the large quesadilla and was overmatched. Wish I had taken more pics. read more

As Texans, we enjoy Tex-Mex. This is not Tex-Mex. This is Sonoran-style Mexican food with authentic flavor and soul. If this is your jam, you'll love the food and friendly vibes. We'll definitely be back with our friends and family. See ya there! read more

I was greeted immediately by Victor when I walked through the door and it was only up from there!! He took his time and walked me through the menu where he suggested almost everything. lol I narrowed it down to the Camarones Culichis Shrimp and the Ensenada Shrimp taco... it was hands down the best authentic Mexican food I've had in years! The next time we're in town I'm going to bring my family back with me to try it out for themselves! read more

Luchador Micheladas & Botanas - Ensenada Shrimp Taco, Camarones Culichis Shrimp and a spicy margarita - Tacos Near Me - Cypress, Texas

Loving the vibe and food at Luchador. The service was top notch, with a very attentive server-and we also spoke to Victor, who was really knowledgeable and helpful with the menu. Just a note-this is NOT Tex-Mex, which is why I sought it out. It's actually Sonoran food, which is a rustic, hearty, and "no-frills" cuisine from Northwestern Mexico and Southern Arizona, defined by ranching culture, flour tortillas, and grilled meat. We started the meal with complimentary tostadas and charro beans, which were both amazing. The tostadas are thick and golden brown, and the beans were flavorful and smoky. I ordered beef flautas-they're actually listed as an appetizer-and a side of rice. The flautas are served three to an order (you can choose between beef and chicken) and nestled in a bowl of refreshing tomatillo salsa and refried beans. My husband got tacos, ribeye, and although he thought they needed a little salt, he was pleased as well. He just added a little of my salsa, and was good to go. All and all, this was a fantastic find and I wish them much success! read more

First time back here since the Yelp elite event about a year or so ago. The service was phenomenal, every employee has a great enthusiastic, positive attitude and it's infectious. I really enjoyed the interactions which paired perfectly with how beautiful the restaurant is designed inside. It was very clean all around, now the food. I had 3 beef steak tacos and my wife had the tostadas, honestly we were really hungry. So it did the job, but I wasn't as impressed with the food as I had been previously. My rice and beans were cold when they hit the table. The steak didn't have much flavor in my tacos, I had to add salsa to give it some depth. Overall, I would definitely give them another chance because they are great people and they have a vast menu. Plus it's pretty affordable, just goes to show you attitude, service and appearance largely effect guest experience. They earned themselves some grace, we'll be back read more

The customer service was amazing and so was the food! I had the ribeye tacos and the meat was PERFECTLY cooked. Very tender and seasoned. The restaurant was nice, clean and spacious. The prices were very reasonable and so were the drinks! My tacos were 2 for $13 or you can get 3 for $18. You can tell the tortilla chips and tortillas are homemade. Very delicious. Victor was very kind as I saw him walking around greeting every single table. Our server was amazing as well. We will definitely be back! read more

First timers here and we had a great experience here today! The charro beans salsa and chips they served is so delicious. We loved all of our dishes. We had beef minichimis, enchiladas suizas and rajas con calabacitas con crema. The service was helpful in letting us know we can level my enchiladas to be spicy or not spicy. It was a nice atmosphere and there are more dishes we're willing to try. I heard their menudo is bottomless menudo all week except Mondays because they're closed that day. read more

We drove over from Waller where we were in a hotel for the night after finding them on YELP. The food is fresh and homemade! Service was amazing. I will preface I am gringo and told the server I don't handle spice. I got the enchiladas Suzias and after one bite it was too hot for spice. The beans and rice were awesome. Chips freshly fried. Great food! read more

Went to check this place out that we found on Yelp . They have excellent people working here , so welcoming and friendly. The food was so delicious and not your typical flea market or taco truck tacos, I mean nothings wrong with those either but the food was so good. The place is clean , awesome people and good music , we are definitely coming back . read more

This place checks all the boxes, fills in the circles - and everything in between. I've been here several times at this point and have tried tacos, chunky guacamole, chimichangas , queso fundido, pozole, menudo, quesadillas, and more. EVERYTHING has the homemade taste - and it's all delicious. The staff are very friendly - and they remember you. They have some good Spanish music playing....I mean, I'm listening to "Salinassss" right now. I still have a few things to try on the menu, but I'm confident I will love whatever I order here. If you're anywhere in western hemisphere - this place is worth the stop! Highly recommend!!! read more

Been meaning to review this hidden gem! The food? 10/10. The drinks? 10/10. The service? 10/10. The vibe? 10/10. Whether it's a family meal or a solo plate, the authenticity is unmatched. We were greeted as soon as we walked in, no wait for seating, even though we came during a busy time. There were only 2-3 tables left, which just proves how good this spot is. It was 1pm and they had ran out of menudo already! Absolutely delicious for both breakfast and lunch highly recommend! Complementary chips and salsa. We've committed ourselves to trying everything on the menu it's that good. Fun fact: they actually import their mole from central Mexico! As a mole fan, that detail truly matters! Another standout? They offer free refills on drinks (non alcoholic) and menudo! That alone deserves its own shoutout. Victor was our server and didn't miss a single detail. He is very knowledgeable! Overall excellent service, super clean place, and the lucha libre memorabilia decor from México adds such a fun and nostalgic touch for those of us who grew up watching el santo and blue demon movies w our parents. Plenty of parking too! The food did take slightly longer to come to our table but was definitely worth the wait. Take a look at our delicious order below! On this visit, we started with chilaquiles with salsa verde and added chicken! For drinks, we had agua de tamarindo and a coffee. Main course, we ordered the Caldo Luchador, the large quesadilla, the camarones culichis, and a Mochomo taco. We've already tried so many of their dishes before too! the flautas, menudo, shrimp quesadilla, tacos, enmoladas, and queshebradas and they've all been amazing! read more

The Menudo was off the chainnnn. I love the variety of food. The place might be a bit small but it's worth the wait for the food.

Ive driven by this restaurant several times and finally had time to stop. From the moment we stepped in, the restaurant stood out. We were warmly greeted. They are very clean all through the restaurant. The green sauce was my fav. The charro beans were absolutely delicious. Everything we ordered was perfect. The staff were amazing. The owners personally greeted us and made sure everything was to our liking. We will definitely be back again. read more

Mexican cuisine with Sonoran flavors. Their grilled ribeye aguachile is one of the most amazing dishes I have ever tasted. Love the shrimp tacos. Wonderful fresh chips and salsa. Quality margaritas, drinks, and beer. Dining room is simple, bright and clean. Some evenings they have live music. Service is hit or miss but the food allows me to overlook that. Definitely worth a visit! read more

Parking? Easy. Seating? Even easier. You just stroll in, pick your spot, and boom--you're in. The vibe? Chill. Like, "I could nap here" level chill. Right off the bat, the service hits different--in a good way. Friendly faces, constant check-ins (but not the annoying kind), and even a secret hot sauce tasting. Not on the menu. Mysterious. Dangerous. Deborah loved it. I took one taste and instantly understood the meaning of regret. Now let's talk food. I went with the Large Shrimp Quesadilla--and oh boy, was it a showstopper. Crispy edges, gooey center, shrimp perfection. If I could marry a quesadilla, this might be the one. All in all, this place just gets it. I'm already planning my next visit. Thanks for the amazing experience--my taste buds salute you! read more

Food: 5 stars Service: 5 stars Ambiance: 5 stars Loved this restaurant! Emilio, our server, was a joy to hang out with during our visit, attentive and engaging throughout the meal. I had the Platillo de Alambre without bacon and onions, and it came with rice and beans. I don't eat pork, and the owner was kind enough to ask if I wanted an alternative before the meal was cooked--a wonderful touch that showed they really cared. The beans were rich, enhanced with a smoky chipotle flavor, and the rice was fluffy with just the right amount of seasoning. The steak was perfectly well-done, tender, and savory, pairing excellently with the melted cheese and crisp peppers. The corn tortilla tasted like it was freshly made, soft and warm, truly a chef's kiss to the dish. After a long day of traveling, I couldn't have asked for a more satisfying meal. The meal started with three servings of chips and salsa--an absolute highlight! We couldn't get enough of the crispy, freshly made chips. They had just the right amount of crunch, and each bite was perfectly complemented by the two salsas: a creamy green salsa with a hint of spice and a slightly smoky, fiery red salsa. These kept us coming back for more. Overall, I am beyond satisfied and will definitely return. read more

Love this restaurant!!! Authentic Mexican food and I enjoyed meeting Victor the Manager and had a wonderful time!

We were visiting friends in the area and wanted a Michelada, and late breakfast. The Miche', they were amazing. Dressed nicely with celery, peanuts( yes peanuts), and a nice chunk of beef jerky. The mix was Smokey and spicy, so good! My wife had the garlic shrimp tacos, and my friend had the chilaquiles, they both really enjoyed their plates. I had their burrito with grilled steak. I also added the queso. The only disappointment was the case came in a little sauce cup on the side. It was tasty (queso) but as far as presentation goes, everything else looked so well done, the sauce cup was . Don't get me wrong, the burrito itself, very good. Lots of meat and the salsa so good. Service, the young lady helping very attentive and pleasant. Sunday mid morning, the place was filling up while we were there. Plenty of space and overall a nice setting. I would definitely come back to try other things on their menu. read more

Wow! Sonoran food is a different type of Mexican food, and I have never seen it anywhere else in Houston. The Aguachile de Ribeye alone is worth the trip--marinated ribeye that melts in your mouth, totally low carb/keto. The larger shrimp Taco is fantastic, as are the agua frescas. Better than average homemade chips, the salsa verde is excellent. Friendly, prompt service. read more

The food at this restaurant is amazing. The staff is absolutely incredible and so friendly. They started us off with this complementary chips and salsa with a bean soup. Both were very good. We also ordered flautas because we were craving them and a ribeye taco to share clearly the portions the flow are huge and definitely allows for leftovers. The flow does really yummy and I loved all the top things that were included. I definitely recommend both of these. The restaurant is on the smaller/medium side, but there's lots of tables for seating. It wasn't super busy when we went since we went pretty early in the day. I definitely recommend this place to anyone who's looking for some good food. read more

We checked out a new place off Barker Cypress and were VERY impressed!!! I had the Rajas de Chile Poblano con Calabacita and my husband had the mole enchiladas. My dish was so tasty and the mole was probably one of the best that I've had in a long time!! The calabacita reminds me of something my mom would have made but it was taken to a new level with the creamy sauce and poblano chiles. Neither dish was very spicy just good flavor! Their salsas are hot though! The aguas ( pineapple and horchata ) were good too. Can't wait to go back and try some new dishes! Authentic Mexican food! read more
