    What a fun restaurant! Great Mexican decor and good food! Quickly seated by a very nice hostess and the waitress was excellent. Took our drink orders quickly. I had the $2.50 special Dos Equis with a "build your own plate" two enchiladas and a crispy taco! It was delicious! I will be back!!

    Great service. Food was amazing but their mango margarita is out of this world. There is 2 one in 242 and one on league line

    Yummy!!

    Nice atmosphere with great music. The food was not so MEXICAN to my liking. The rice and spinach enchilada was my favorite from my plate. The waitress was sweet and very friendly.

    The food was pretty good I just wish it came out fresh. It was room temp. The service was excellent our waitress was really nice and checked frequently on us. The ambiance was nice. It wasn't loud at all so we could comfortably talk across the table.

    We were on our way home from Galveston and stopped in Conroe for lunch. We found this restaurant and we stopped. Then people we're Mexican. The lady who brought chips so spoke no English. Our waitress is debatable. We kept yelling the order over the loud background noise. Told her appetizer there times. The same with the el cantor. I ordered the El Cantor. My husband ordered the Chimichanga. WEordered the quesadilla OFF the kid's menu and an appetizer called El Flameodo. Let's start with tgec flameado. It was absolutely the worse "stuff" I've ever had. It was a white queso with chorizo and pico, the appetizer. It was so tick we couldn't dip it out to eat it. We tried putting a tortilla in, then a chip . Nooooooo . Neither worked. After struggling with it, we called our waitress over and asked her if it should be that thick. She said yes!!! Well there was money wasted. If you can't even get it out if then you can't eat it. We had two spoonfuls, then gave up! My husband said the chimichanga was okay but if he moved there, he would not come back to order it again. The kids meal looked okay except the rice which didn't look like Mexican rice. My grandson's favorite part of the meal is the rice. He took one bite and that was it. He did like the cheese quesadilla though. As for mine--i nearly gagged on all the cheese. I've never seen so much cheese on a single dish! I tried to choke it down and finally decided to move it aside so I could eat the poblano. It is supposed to be lightly breaded but it was not. Now I was thrilled with that as I hate breaded peppers I I thought that great. You can't ness up a poblano, correct? Wrong. It wasn't fully cooked. It was very thick and crunchy. It came with fajita meat on the side. The chicken was dry. The homemade tortillas looked greasy and one was burned in the bottom. That meal was so heavy I felt like I'd gained ten pounds when we left The salsa's and chips. Salsa tasted burned but I've had it at other places and hate that taste. The green sauce was chilled and tastes like it might have avocado in it it It was okay, but not my favorite The chips was the only food palatable at the place. Be aware.

    Mama Juanita's was within walking distance of my hotel, so I thought I'd give it a try. They were very busy, but I was able to get seated right away. The waitress was excellent!! Started off with chorizo and cheese, with warm fresh tortillas. WOW Wonderful start My meal was a huge burrito, filled with tons of vegetables!! Yes, I know that sounds weird, but it was excellent and so flavorful!!! Rice and beans, along with guacamole were served too. I would definitely get this dish again. When in Conroe, give Nama Juanita's a try. Go get Full

    Steak fajita meat, rice, refried beans, guacamole, and salsa!

    I'm not sure what everyone loves about this place. The food is mediocre at best, fajitas are bland and overpriced with crazy small servings.

    Best tex-mex around. The prices just took a hike, just like everything else I guess. Still great food, usually hit at least once a week.

    Zully's (Elvyn Guevara) catered our family reunion beautifully at the Happy Goat Retreat this past…read moreweekend. From day one Elvyn was a delight to deal with. We agreed on 32 people and a menu of -- FAJITAS - CHICKEN & BEEF INCLUDES: RICE, BEANS, TORTILLAS & TOPPINGS NACHO STATION INCLUDES: CHIPS, QUESO, PICO, SOUR CREAM, GUAC, LETTUCE, GROUND BEEF DISPOSABLES - DINNER PLATES, SIDE PLATES, BOWLS & CUTLERY The price was totally reasonable and the service, delivery and setup was timely and quite well executed. The portions were very generous. We all ate off that buffet all day long! The food was delicious! The tortillas were obviously homemade, the guacamole was creamy and fresh, the fajitas were juicy and oh so tasty. The hot melted cheese sauce and ground meat "sauce" on the nacho station was outstanding. We got 1/2 refried beans and 1/2 charro beans-- I love charro beans and these were some of the tastiest I have eaten in a long time. Chocked full of chopped bacon and sautéed onion bits. I highly recommend Zully's to cater your next event. Elvyn will take great care of you and your guests!!

    Such a cute cafe. Paulette's is pretty famous in the…read moreDowntown Conroe area. If you stop anyone on the road and ask , maybe dont, its not the good old times...lol... but if you did ...and asked for a good eatery around, they will without fail direct you to Paulette's. Its a bakery cum lunch place. They close by around 3 pm if I remember correctly..... It was a slightly drizzly but hot afternoon when we stopped here. I really wanted something cold, so settled for Frappe. The rest of the order consisted of an eclairs, a pizza, and some macaroons. Everything came out fresh and just so fragrant, maybe it was the hunger...no, I remember distinctly my eyes expectingly looking at the kitchen door from where I could the see pizza getting made...so it must have been the smell.... Macaroons were tiny, but good, the eclairs was really good A great stop, they do close early like most stores around the area so if you want a bite, stop here first, then explore.

Since it was in the evening, we were the only ones there which made for a nice, quiet experience. We ordered the Margherita pizza and it was really cheesy with good flavor. I especially enjoyed the crust, it had a really nice texture and taste. We also tried the Norwegian crepe. It was okay, but honestly, it wasn't quite as good as I expected. The cream served on the side, however, was really good! We finished with some plain beignets to take to go. They were good, but probably not something I would order again. Overall, the staff was friendly, the restaurant had beautiful decor, and the bathrooms were clean. I would definitely come back if I'm in the area, but next time I'll try a different crepe!
