    JJ J.

    deceptively benign name for an explosively delicious menu disguised in a typical looking place. nothing stood out for me and i'd not only never heard of it but never wanted to try. until i literally walked in here, luckily, out of curiosity; a hidden gem indeed. ironic bc the adapted style is very peruvian by its description: 'hybrid peruvian-mexican'. peruvian is a hyper-hybrid-mixed bag of various culinary greats like china, japan, spain, african & incan and has the geographic diversity to pull it off as they have virtually any ingredient available. so i was excited to see their menu, but... had plenty of trouble with their menu since their website link on google was bad and no menu on yelp, but i fixed that with posted pics once i was finally i was able to see their menu inside!! there's some 3rd party menu online but i don't trust those bc they're often wrong or from another location so i always look for an authentic pic taken from customers of an in-store menu. for example, they didn't even have alfajores here even tho it says they do on that 3rd party site. but anyways i was immediately sold on chilaquiles. yes very mexican but again hybrid peruvian had me wondering about the green sauce as peru is known for their chile sauces smothering things. things such as their amazing peruvian rotisserie chicken. so tender, juicy, crispy crust. perfect with the cut up corn tortillas & then there was plenty of queso fresco cheese and that subtle pungent spice of red onion to finish it off, all in that fabulous green sauce that wasn't very spicy. reminiscent of ceviche actually, the national dish, only mexican version minus the fish! yet also kind of breakfast-like too. indeed hybrid. the taquitos were very tasty too, as you can see (and imagine) in my pic. i should've had tostones too but their menu says green plantain & sweet plantain, not tostones like the word i'm familiar with, so i assumed it wasn't tostones, but i checked on the way out with an employee and confirmed the green plantains are in fact tostones. so...got the menu frustrations sorted, very impressed with the food, obviously will be back soon!!

    One of the best thing about this restaurant is the service ! Jocelyn (I spelled the name wrong),…read moretook great care of us. She was very nice and attentive. This place has one of the best drinks, both of my our drinks was delicious . I'd come back here just for the drinks alone. The food wasn't too bad. It's very different compared to your average Tex/mex restaurant. *Be advised - add your name to waitlist on Fri/Saturday dinner bc their will be a 30min-1hr wait*

    We had one of the worst dining experiences ever at Ambriza La Centerra. After living in Houston for…read more15 years and dining all over the city, this was by far the most disappointing restaurant experience we've had. What made it even more frustrating is that we've been to the Cypress location many times, and every single visit there has been exceptional -- great food, great service, and consistently enjoyable. Unfortunately, the La Centerra location was the complete opposite. We waited over an hour for our food, only to receive the wrong appetizer. The fajita plate arrived cold and without rice, beans, or tortillas. We sent both dishes back. The replacement appetizer -- ceviche tostadas -- finally arrived, but it was overloaded with lemon to the point of being unbearably sour. Meanwhile, there were still no tortillas, rice, or beans in sight. No drink refills, no updates, and barely any service during the entire wait. After another long stretch of waiting, we finally asked the server what was happening, only for her to return and tell us the kitchen was closing and they no longer had tortillas, rice, or beans available. At that point, after nearly 1.5 hours, we walked out with nothing but a to-go box of fajita meat. To the manager's credit, they removed the appetizer and fajita charges from the bill, but the experience itself left such a bad taste that it completely overshadowed the gesture. Extremely disappointing, especially compared to the excellent standards we've experienced at the Cypress location. Sadly, we will not be returning to this location.
