The atmosphere and customer service is good, but when it comes to food it's not served and proportioned right when it comes to warm foods, the cold drinks/foods a bit better for the most part. Food is a bit overpriced for what you are receiving too. read more

I have to start out by saying I have no idea why this place is rated some what low..? 3 stars is surprising. I kind of take that back only because of customer service. There is a young lady there that is just not nice or helpful. I brought my dad in for the 1st time and we were asking what were the recommendations...she just seemed kind of annoyed by this question. But whatever, this rating is more on what we ordered. I ordered the Rusa and my dad ordered the banana split. The Rusa is absolutely breathtaking when you first see it. It was literally one of the most beautiful sights I've seen all day. The gleam in my eye was way more than I've ever given anyone in my entire life. I couldn't wait to dig in. I was surprised that my dad ordered the banana split but I guess he felt like having ice cream at the time.. I could tell he kind of felt it was a wrong decision after seeing what I ordered. But tough!! it was all mine!!! Just as I thought it was delicious and I cannot wait to come back for another. Maybe I'll try the mangonada and tell them to customize it by making the top half like a Rusa!!!! Muajajajaja!!! read more

Oooooweeee. I love this place. Their snacks are okay, but the snow cones are a must. They're not like your regular snow cones that just seem to be drizzled in food coloring. They are flavorful and fruity. Their drinks are also great, they all taste fresh and natural. Service is okay, any time I've been, it seems that they only have one person working and they have to do all the work out back. I will continue to keep returning here to satisfy my sweet tooth and snow cone cravings! read more

The snacks are good My favorite thing is their bionico (amazing) I wish the had more ice cream variety Their shakes are good although i wish they would give bigger (thicker) straws I also feel like their short on staff It takes a while to get our order every time we go. But other than that everything else is good read more

Super bad service. The long hair guy they hire at the front service is really bad. I had order a chicharrón and when they brought it out I ask to change my avocado because it was dark. so, then he look mad and threw the whole chicharrón to the trash. Took them way longer to get it out. I ask for manager and he said he was the manager. Then I ask for his boss number didn't provide it. Really bad service read more

This place has great Mexican style snack foods! It's not a place you go for a wide range of actual "meal" type foods - although you can fill up with their tostadas or nachos. The tostada was what I ordered and it was very good. The only thing I would have liked better is if it had less cabbage and more avocado. But still, it was tasty. The chicken (only meat choice offered) was seasoned deliciously and all the vegetables in top were fresh. My wife also had the elotes which were good - for being canned corn as opposed to fresh. She also tried the mangonada and loved it. I don't like mangos so I can't rate it...but from the expert's opinion it was delicious. I've also had the fresas y crema (strawberries and cream) and it's probably the thing I most want to go back for. The berries were sweet and fresh, and it was the perfect refreshing snack on a warm summer evening. My wife has also had the hot dog Mexicano. It's decent. Would be much better with a beef hot dog - the ones they use taste like the cheap ones you get for around a buck per pack at the grocery store. The canned corn and hot dog would get about 3.5 stars, and the other items I'd give 5. All in all, this is a solid 4-star spot or better, depending on what you order. read more

Great Mexican street food! I have never tried Mangonada before and I would have to say it is delicious! The portion is about a "venti" size with frozen blended mangos and swirls of spicy tamarind in between, and topped of with freeze frozen mango bites and more of that yummy tamarind sauce. The Mexican corn was also good! I don't believe its fresh corn off a cob, but the mayo, lime and Parmesan cheese made a perfect combo. The small is more than enough for me! I also tried a bite of the hubby's chicken tostada and it was amazing. The chicken was shredded but seasoned great with homemade salsa and not dry. Topped with a blend of shredded cabbage, tomatoes and créma. The Mexican hot dog is an interesting twist to an American classic. There is a strip of bacon that is placed underneath the wiener and it is top with tomatoes, créma, avocado chunks and mustard. I would recommend this place! It's kind of hidden but worth a try! read more

I always get the mangonada or platano licuado- you seriously can't go wrong with that. Sometimes I get elote when I don't feel like driving to my normal elote place, and I regret it every time- not worth it. This place gets busy after dinner. Be ready to wait if they're even open..They have super inconsistent business hours. Some days I go 45 minutes before closing just to find out they're already closed. read more

This place is the bomb. Fresh fruits and beverage for hot sunny day in Houston. The mangonados and pineapple fruit are so yummy. Rice ranging from $6-$10. I'd recommend to come here if you're just needing something sweet and savory. They have all sorts of snacks like elote and hot cheetos and with cheese. read more

Ok, long overdue review on this place, but we wanted to go back and try a few things. Mangonadas here are SUPERB - true Mangonada in that it is not a raspa but rather blended frozen mango swirled with chamoy and topped with chopped mango; for $1 you can add the hot salted tamarindo stick. Preparadas are AMAZING!! You get a 32oz cup coated in chile & full of oranges & pineapples, lots of gummy bears, chamoy; you're lookin at $8.00 for one of these bad boys with the Smirnoff. If you get it with a Squirt, a Rusia, I believe they are around $6.50 (which is so much better than some other place). I absolutely love these and the flavor the chamoy gives the Smirnoff! Hot Cheetos with melted cheese?? OMG, I had never had such a thing, but it is surprisingly good and super cheesy. I have had just mango with chile and chamoy, and it always seems that the mango is super sweet. Cesar really likes their jicama & cucumber mixed as well. And the last time we went, we all ordered a small cup of corn which hit the spot and was so delectable. One of the good things is they have a condiment bar so you can add as much extra chamoy, chile or other seasoning to your drink, dessert, fruit, etc. Oh and be prepared to freezing in there because of all the ice cream and cold items going on lol! There has always been a line when we go, but they have their stuff together here. Orders come flying out and you may have a 15min wait after you order IF you're getting food; otherwise, our mangonadas last time came out in like 5min and we just to wait for our hot corn! read more

I spent weeks getting excited about coming here and left a bit disappointed. I've seen photos of this place on instagram and the Pina Loca had captured my attention Came here on a Friday night and it was PACKED. There were about 4-5 groups in front of me when I had gotten there and only one register. The place was busy busy and the orders were coming out extreeeemely slow. There are a few menus scattered around the order counter, as well as signs (with pictures, for all of us non-spanish speaking folks) covering the walls. Brother and I ordered two mangonadas, and a pina loca The total was a little under $20. You wouldn't know that since THERE ARE NO PRICES ADVERTISED ANYWHERE. Waited and waited for what seemed like two years, it was actually over an HOUR for our order to be filled. For a place that doesn't serve much hot entrees and mostly drinks, they're extremely slow. Not sure how many people are working, but this is probably the only reason I won't be back. The drinks itself were pretty decent, the mangonada was nice and slushy. the pina loca is a behemoth, I wasn't even sure where to start. Overall, the experience was a one time thing for me, I wasn't super impressed. read more

They tried to copy Kool Cups with the pineapples but they taste horrible. Go to Kool Cups for Original great taste pinapple cup!

I love getting elotes here, there is free netflix, and music, its clean and pretty here.

Great choices to choose from and most importantly very clean! They have a nice little area set up if you decide to eat and hang out for a bit and good music (not too loud). I had a mangonada and my daughter had ice cream, we both loved it! First time here but will definitely be back. read more

Selection of raspas, elote, tostadas, nieve, tortas, and preparadas and other latin snacks. Came on a Sunday and it was packed. They do accept credit cards but believe it was a $5 minimum. I had the ruso, tostada and elote especial which were all pretty good. Why I gave it 3 stars because it took 45 minutes to finally get my order and the place could use some cleaning. Alot of sticky tables and trash left from customers. read more

Mr. Penguin Snacks Plus - Preparada is huge - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Houston, Texas

Okay , lets put it this way. This is a snack kiosk with a Mexican snack menu. Very similar to a small franchise called "el kiosko" Just so we're clear , you usually find these types of snacks where the Hispanic culture is heavy. I have to drive quite bit to get here. I came today for a drink called "preparada" meaning "prepared". Unfortunately this alcoholic beverage was advertised as such but was given to me with a bottled Smirnoff on the side rather than the cup. This would be okay if the cup was empty but it has a comes with bunch of fruity/candy ingredients which is supposed to mix with the flavored beer ultimately becoming the "preparada" when you order this drink in most places that it's advertised it's given to you already mixed and ready to drink. Other than that all items on the menu are fantastic and fresh with delicious fresh fruit read more

I love the Rusas, but be warned it is huge! Lucky to have this place on our side of town instead of hauling to the Southside of Houston. Only issue is there isn't enough variety and if you order a whole lot it's a waiting game. Be prepared for it. Once you get your order you can add your own concoction of chili powders. That's a plus. Only lost a star to lack of variety and wait time. Happy Eats! read more

After placing our family order at 4:48pm it wasn't served till 5:41,7 minutes short of an hour wait. If you have time to wait I would recommend it. Feels like inside can use a temperature dropped and it was pretty hot inside. Napkins for customers is in a paper towel roll like if you are in a restroom kind of odd. read more

Bad customer service. I had just ordered and told them there was mistake and they charged me for the wrong thing. He told me that since the order is already in the system I would have to pay for the item that I initially wanted. read more

The snacks at this place are super gooddd!!! Would definitely recommend going to that place on a hot sunny day to eat something refreshing!

Takes kind of a long time to get your order especially if there are other people, but totally worth the wait. They are always out of hot Cheetos too lol read more

I had been on the search for a preparada since I went to visit friends in my home town and all they did was talk about it and I was never able to find a place. I came upon this place not far from where I live! I ordered an elote and a preparada. I didn't wait very long, maybe about 10 minutes. Elote was hot and the preparada was huge!!! Extremely filling and really great taste!!! I was very happy and will be returning again!!! I can't wait to try something different from their menu!!! read more

I'm rating a 2 based on what I ordered and how it tasted. I usually go to a place called chile & lime In Houston to get mangonadas. They make it right in front of you so you know it's fresh. At this place they brought the mangonada to me and it had a slushy consistency as of it were frozen and they just mushed it up and put it in a cup. It was horrible and I didn't even drink half of it. My friend got the strawberries and cream and it wasn't good either! The drink had a bunch of strawberry sauce and the strawberrys were frozen as well. We even got these tacos and only ate one because it was doused in oil and they put everything on after we kindly asked for no guac or sour cream... the service wasn't too bad but the food was and I don't think I'd come back here anytime soon. I'll stick to my local refresqueria. read more

The elote has been soggy the past 4 times I've been there I've officially given up on trying them out. Seems like they let the corn just sit there for days and it goes bad. Other than that the fresas con crema are really good Micheladas are ok not the best they put some hot room temp shrimp taste awful. But I guess they have okay stuff. Not the best unfortunately read more

Good unique types of snacks. Could work on appearance, and maybe putting the prices on tue menus. They accept calls to request orders read more
