    a bottle of beer
    Jason B.

    Just not good enough nor consistent enough. Flavors taste processed and like they use low quality ingredients. There are two things on the menu that are good- the trio fajitas and the chicken flautas. Otherwise, this would be a much lower review. We stopped coming here for over a year and recently came back just because it was convenient. Same ol Lupe though. Semi warm beers, erratic service, food served that's been sitting under the warmer for ten extra minutes, and your typical sweet tasting non authentic Mexican food. With so many other options in and around Houston it's pointless to come here. Authentic Mexican food tastes better and is better priced as well. Also, every time I've used an app to get it delivered in the past my order was wrong. I called in to speak to a manager after half my order was incorrect and was offered a discount on my next meal and a whole lot of attitude. They are busy enough though, so they will be fine without my business. Even if you like Tex Mex, there are still better options.

    Love the restaurant and I would recommend to anyone that's want that Mexican food in Missouri city, just walking up to the front door u get the vibes of Arizona! Food was good, waitress was cool shout out to Amber. Place gets 2 thumbs up

    Vegetarian echiladas

    This place needs to get it together. Ambiance was lovely. We were quickly seated however our service during the whole entire experience was excruciatingly slow. My husband got the chicken quesadillas, my brother got the vegetarian enchiladas with Rojo sauce and I got the vegetable fajitas. The first thing I asked for was plain corn and it to be taken off the cobb because I needed to give it to my daughter to eat. This was the last thing that was brought out, and it was still on the Cobb with all these sauces added to it that I specifically said please do not add ( and by last thing I mean approximately one hour after we ordered the corn). My 2 year old was cranky and so hungry by the end she was screaming and we had to leave. Our food was decent nothing amazing, looks better than it tastes. So many other Mexican restaurants that are better in the area. We will not be coming back.

    Trio Fajitas (Chicken, Shrimp, and Steak)
    Andrew J.

    Lupe Tortilla definitely has the potential to be 5 stars but I don't know if they will ever invest in what it takes to do that. My wife and I walked in and were seated near instantly. It wasn't a huge crowd though there were several gathered at the bar watching Football. Once seated, it took a solid 13 minutes or so before we were greeted by our server. She checked in to let us know she would be right back. That took another 18 minutes. When she returned, we'd already figured out an appetizer, main entree, and drinks (we had plenty of time since it took so long). She brought chips and 2 kinds of salsa, bean salsa and your typical red salsa. Salsa and chips were both good. Chips were thin, just the right amount of salt, crispy and flavorful. Salsa was also pretty good. A little spicy but not too much. We ordered the following: - Shrimp and Avocado Campechano (App) - Trio Fajitas - Lobster Tacos - Margarita Flight (3 different flavors) - Blanca Sangria Before tip, that entire meal was $117. A bit expensive for a restaurant that casual if you ask me. Here's what we liked: - Margarita flight was good per my wife. Good flavor choices and mixed well - The Trio Fajitas were good. I also ordered it with the jalapeno sausage which was exceptional. I really enjoyed their tortillas. They taste like they are made from scratch. I had corn and flour. Shrimp, chicken and steak were seasoned well. Tender and flavorful. What we didn't like: - Shrimp and Avocado Campechano just didn't do it for us. Almost tasted like a bloody mary and Campbell's tomato soup mixed together with overly gamey tasting shrimp - Lobster tacos were just OK. They didn't really mesh with my wife. She ate them but because she was starved. - Blanca Sangria was too sweet and almost tasted like they weren't finished making it. Wasn't a fan. The manager did come by towards the end of our meal to ask us if we were doing OK and if we needed anything. I like that and I think all restaurants should do that. But most times, I won't give negative feedback about something unless it's unbearably bad since I know they are busy. All in all, Lupe Tortillas should tune up their wait staff with training and customer expectations, hire more efficient cooks and make sure the bartenders are getting the drinks right. I am sure this place will get more business and repeat customers as a result. We may go back in a pinch but would rather try other restaurants in the area first.

    Vibrant Tex mex place with whimsical decor. My favorite part is that they have a separate vegetarian menu with a lot to choose from. Love the inclusivity! Can expect a wait time during the dinner rush. Hostess and severs are attentive and helpful when it comes to the menus and recommendations. I ordered the veggie fajitas. Pretty standard veggies- bell peppers, onions, zucchini. Not really seasoned.

    Waiting for my food... FOREVER.

    I will never come here again. First of all, there are way too many wondering Tex-Mex restaurants that you can eat at with a lot better variety, flavor, authenticity... you just have to do a little more work to find them and tour them. Going to a big chain restaurant is the lazy way out, it does not support small business or our immediate economy for that matter. That being said, I came after work because I don't live far. I just wanted a quick meal. I was hungry and too tired to even think. BIG MISTAKE. I sat waiting for over thirty minutes. I watched other tables being served, brought out food, manager came to speak with the table next to me several times and never glanced over. Something had to be wrong. No one even inquired if I had been helped, they all just went about their business. I went back to the front and asked if any waiter had been assigned to my table as it had been 30 minutes without even beong brought out water. She later told me the waiter went on break without tellljng anyone and she would assign someone else, then after 15 more minutes she told me the girl who was assigned didn't want to take my table so she would do it herself - it was a "weird hour with people changing shifts." She was nice. She took my order, brought me chips. Eventually brought me my food and it was decent. This restaurant has a clear problem. And it is clear that it is a MANAGERIAL problem. Eventually my food came and it was typical Lupes food. Not worth the hassle.

    Your food tastes good, but you charge if you add fajita beef and there's hardly any.

There is plenty of natural light, which I look for when finding a cafe to study at. I also feel as if people don't really know about this place yet, making it a good spot to come here consistently to study. The bathrooms here are pretty clean as well. Anahid took our order and she was very helpful with explaining each drink and providing recommendations. We ended up trying a couple drinks from their New Orleans inspired coffee menu: the iced bananas foster and the iced southern wedding cake, both with sweet cold foam, as well as some beignets. My friend loved the bananas foster, the banana flavor really shines through but not in an overpowering way. And the sweet cold foam really elevates this drink to another level. The southern wedding cake contains a hint of vanilla and almond flavor. The flavor of this coffee is really unique. The almond gives it a light nutty flavor and the vanilla flavor blends nicely with the coffee. The beignets were topped with a generous amount of powdered sugar and were warm, light and airy, and flaky. They were a perfect mid study snack. I could definitely see myself coming back here for another study session.

I ordered the Bananas Foster and the Cafe Au Lait alongside my beignets. The Bananas Foster was delicious and my favorite drink, as the sweet banana flavor comes through very well, and it topped with a fluffy sweet cold foam that pairs perfectly with this drink! I also ordered the hot Cafe Au Lait sweetened with cane sugar syrup, and the strong espresso balances the sweet beignets for the classic New Orleans experience! The service was amazing, and my barista, Anahid, was so kind and helpful! She answered all of our questions and gave us recommendations as this was my first time here. The atmosphere inside this PJ's location was spacious, clean, and welcoming, with plenty of comfortable seating and outlets if you are looking for a great place to study and hang out! The music is not too loud here and there's plenty of natural sunlight and even parking lot space. I definitely look forward to my next visit here!
