    Had a craving for some empanads, and you can't best getting 3 and a side for under $8. I got plantains as a side they were sweet and cooked well. The empanadas are flavorful and perfect for a snack.

    If you looking to satisfy that urge for chicken but need a healthy option, then be sure to give Pollo Campero a try. I stopped in for lunch with my dad who is following the keto diet. He was able to stick with his diet due to the availability of options like baked chicken and unsweetened tea. I, not currently following a low-carb diet, opted for the camperito meal deal. For under $7, I got 9 camperitos ( think chicken tenders that are about double the size of a piece of popcorn chicken), fries, and a roll. I also got a medium drink for about $2 with free refills on any of their drinks. Their drink selection has all of the normal choices of soda including tea. The best thing was that for the price of the soda, I was able to drink all of the horchata I wanted! There was also a mango juice option. PS, the horchata was so good that I got a second glass of it. The food arrived quickly and with a smile. What took me by surprise was that despite the fast food feel of the store, the food was served on real dish ware with real metal silverware. Definitely classed up the lunch experience! Plus the booths were very comfortable, making this patron very content. As for the food, the chicken was fantastic! It wasn't over cooked at all and the breading was crispy. I had the Campero signature dipping sauce which reminded me of Chick-fil-a sauce due to the tangy, creamy nature. I took a star off due to the unimpressive sides that accompanied the chicken. The fries, while cooked well, were nothing super special. They strongly reminded me of the big bags of fries that I have bought from the grocery store and fried at home. The rolls were also clearly from a bag of rolls. There was nothing screaming Campero twist to them. They were not even warmed. A little disappointing. Overall, come for the chicken and horchata which is reasonably priced. Maybe if they up the quality of the sides, this restaurant can really take off. The staff was very friendly and the store was very clean so the bases are covered from that end.

    Fairly new at the Katy fast food scene this location is one of the newer one for the chain that been around for while. This place's located off the busy road of fry road and it is very easy to missed if you a fast driver like me. The parking is very tight is a very small parking lot. The chicken was very good. I ordered the three pieces combo. You have a choice between fry and baked. I ordered the baked one, the chicken was full of spices that combine with fresh lime they give you, it is one of the best chicken I taste in a long time. The place is fast casual means, you go up and order , they give you a number, then they bring you out the food. The service is it is what it is consider it is brand new. What I didn't like was ten minutes before closing on the Friday night they put away the napkins. That kind of ruined the experience. That been said I will be back for more chickens.

    Elite Week at Portillo's!…read more Stopped by Portillo's in Katy for Elite Week, and of course we had to see what the hype was about! We went with the burgers, fries, and Dr Pepper floats. Baby, that burger was GOOD! It had that delicious flame-broiled flavor that I love, and the fries were cooked perfectly. Hot, crispy, and exactly how fries are supposed to be! Now...the Dr Pepper float? It didn't quite do it for me. It was way too thick, even after we asked for it to be made a little looser, and it was also much sweeter than I expected. I love a sweet treat, but this one was a little too sweet for me. But the burger and fries definitely saved the day! I'll absolutely be back because there are several other things on the menu I want to try. Burger: Fries: Dr Pepper Float: Not for me! Overall, a good first visit, and I'm looking forward to round two!

    The parking lot is big and the store is far from other establishments…read more Walking in you can order fro the kiosk or a person at the counter. They have nice merchandise too. We ordered a hotdog, polish sausage, Italian beef sandwich, french fries, queso, dr. Pepper shake. The hotdog, polish sausage, french fries, and queso were really good. They pushed the Dr Pepper shake on me (I really wanted the chocolate cake shake). I took three sips of the shake because I really wanted to like it (I like Dr Pepper and I like ice cream) but I didn't want to torture myself so I threw it away. The tables were a tad greasy but the restrooms were clean. I would come back for the hotdog and Polish Sausage!!!!

While visiting family in Houston we were excited to come across a "real" Mexican (as opposed to Tex-Mex...iykyk) taco shop. As soon as you walk in and see the Tijuana and Baja Mexico signs and decor you know you're in the right place. There's an open kitchen, allowing you to watch your carne being grilled on the open-flame grill. That charged meat smell is heavenly! Their guac is chunky and simple (nothing too fancy), hot sauces are tasty (and they have a kick!), tortillas are thin but strong -- holding the goods in just right. It's also nice that they have complimentary tasty, crispy pork rinds -- as opposed to the standard chips & salsa. Portions are ample! They definitely don't skimp -- tons of meat and guac in their tacos and huge, meaty burritos! Prices are fair, especially for what you get! Their dining room is a tad small, but it's very clean and the a/c is good...there's also a nice patio outside. Service was swift and friendly. Food was good. A/C was poppin'. Parking was plentiful. All in all I have to admit that Tacos Frontera comes as close to good San Diego Mexican food as you can get...they would definitely be able to hold their own in San Diego!

    The food is absolutely phenomenal. It tastes authentic, freshly made, and just honestly addicting…read more My entire family love to come here and for a good reason. The price to food ratio is beyond reasonable, especially when put up against fast food restaurants (or just many restaurants for that matter) and can serve as a second or even third meal (assuming you don't get lost in the flavor) The staff have always been nice, so no complaints there The only complaint is that it can take a while for your order to be made, especially at peak times. Dining in is hard due to the lack of available seating (all first come, first serve), parking is very limited and you may need to park on the other side of the shopping complex. Last I ordered, there doesn't seem to be a clear way to order ahead Regardless, we still come here often and always have enjoyed the food

I ordered the Loco, off the menu, but from a trusted source. And a bottle of Modelo Negra to set the mood. The plate came out and the papusa was huge. Big as the plate. With a side of slaw and tomato dipping sauce. I was set. I'm not a slaw fan so sent that back but got to the main event quickly. The Loco Papusa had pork meat, beans, spinach and chz. It was amazing. Ive had Papusas from Central America and thaw are the two deal. I've had their burgers and the Papusas ame both are great can't go wronh.

Offers beer, wine, and happy hour The old school Burgers I'm used to: Toast their buns and I love a toasted bun. They also offer Turkey burgers. I've tried the turkey burger once and the meat patty reminded me of a smash burger style patty, so next time, I think I'll get two. I also customized the burger with bacon, blue cheese, pickles, and a hard fried egg which made for a nice addition of flavors. Queso tasted home made. Cleaned the bowl! Sweet potato fries, let's say they've managed to achieve a nicely cut proportionate fry with the authentic sweet potato flavor and texture that's not soggy.

First, let's talk about the service which is extremely efficient you order at the counter and the weight staff brings out your meal shortly thereafter. The ambience is very plain like a diner very simple but very clean and so if you wanna grab some wonderful Greek food especially a Gyro you'll find no place better at least on the west side of town. The salads are wonderful of which I had a Greek why not I'm in a Greek restaurant but it was chalk full of wonderful, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, onions, and had a great dressing. In addition, I had a Gyro, which I really didn't even eat until later that day because the salad alone was filling. The owner happen to be in on this particular day as he often is in his restaurant. What a pleasant man we discussed what was going on in our community and then what his experience was in Michigan. He's always a delight to speak to. I would highly highly recommend Papa gyros..

    Cute place. Great northeast Greek diner feel…read more Service was great. Food was good. It's like Greek diner food. Don't come here and expect fine dining. Expect the greasy patty melt and loaded up Greek plates. The gyro meat was good. Chicken and regular souvlaki were good and tender. Seasoning was good. It's what you expect and it delivers. If I'm in the neighborhood and I would definitely stop by again.
