This neighborhood staple does not disappoint. Not pictured is the queso with ground beef, if you have not tried it you need to. It's muoy bueno. I went with my go to the El Gringo. It's a little bit of everything and very tasty. The service is fast and friendly. Lunch time is perfect as it's easy to get in and out. read more

Talk about amazing food & delicious drinks! My go to fajitas are the Fajita Tejana it has all the things I LOVE, beef, chicken, shrimp, sausage, grilled onions and jalapeños. The street tacos & ribeye tacos are super good & the margaritas are sooo tasty!!! You MUST TRY the tres leches it's made in house & has a beyond delicious frosting. read more

ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. Great service, kind staff, food was amazing and came out in a good time frame. The price was very reasonable also, perfect place for a quick little lunch! It's so hard to find a Mexican restaurant where the meat isn't so tough and chewy but their beef and chicken was perfect and seasoned so well! I genuinely want to go back already and have dinner there. read more

Let's sing. Ahem. Oh where or where did my little .... No not that song. More like .... Ahem. Oh where oh where did I simply go wrong, to never have visit this place... Lalala. People of the world I never new this place existed. It's been in the area for 25 years and I just was never alerted of it. Oh and I've been looking. I've been searching high and low for a new Mexican restaurant since covid closed down many of my go to spots for great Mexican food. Please understand I do not like the big corporate spots around town. I prefer the hidden gems with authenticity. This place I indeed consider that hidden gem. It's off the beaten path. Well, it's off my beating path, despite it being on a major road. I just never come this way. Now to the food. It's a new spot for me so I didn't want to commit to just one full dinner. So I did a little sampling by trying multiple items a-la-cart. I tried the basics: 1 Fajita Beef Taco 1 Enchilada 1 Tamale 1 House Margarita Let's start with the Rita. You do not need to upgrade this baby to premium. It's perfectly fine the way it comes. It's now my new favorite margarita spot in all of Cypress and Tomball. Period. Beef Fajita. This is real beef baby. Not that cheap knock off low grade beef that feels like rubber. Nicely seasoned and prepared well. The fajitas alone are worth 5 stars. Ground Beef Enchilada. Finally found my spot. Hands down the best in all of Cypress. I will exclusively come here now for my enchilada fix in Cypress. Tamale. Y'all! Y'all. Y'all? I was tricked. They need to modify that menu. I ordered my tamale with zero sauce cause I wanted that authentic experience. What I got was a freaking chicken tamale. Blasphemy! When you see tamale on a menu you think traditional pork by default. No not here. They exclusively only have chicken tamales but the menu doesn't specify it. I did not like it at all. But I'm strict on tamales and I only want them in pork. Period. With all that, I'm giving this place all 5 of them stars baby. I further ordered a Jack and Coke (with Mexican Coke of course) as well as their standard Old Fashion. Let's be clear. Their default Old Fashion is made with Woodford Bourbon. Did you hear me! I was floored because that's the absolute best way to make an Old Fashion and many bartenders do not know that. This bartender did and she made the bar menu herself. I forget her name but I did post her pic. She only works weekends so, I'm now heading there weekends only for them perfectly balanced old fashion. Hola and Prosper! read more

My favorite Mexican restaurant. Love their seafood tacos and their black beans are the best I've ever had anywhere.

Very nice people Great Food Take out is convenient always ready when I arrive It stays busy So u no it's great food read more

Very good first experience. Service was spotty but they were attentive and we were never waiting for them. Atmosphere is your typical Mexican restaurant. Food was very flavorful, tender, and delicious. I always have an issue ordering tortilla soup at Mexican restaurants and their spicy chicken tortilla soup was smoky and delicious (comes with a quesadilla also which was fun). Fajitas were good quality, we did try the one that was supposed to have a wine sauce and we didn't really see that. Overall though i think it's a great neighborhood find. read more

Service was wonderful. Pleasant folks from seating to our waiter. Chip arrived immediately which we appreciate as we had just spent 2 hours at the laundromat next door. Very disappointed in the salsa. Chip were good however the salsa had so much cilantro I couldn't even pick it out. I can honestly say I've never disliked a salsa till this one. We followed the advice of previous reviews and ordered the Fat Burrito, which was fairly good and the white enchiladas. I didn't like those at all. Corn tortillas. Why doesn't the waiter ask if that's ok. Especially an American. Probably won't be back, too many other Mexican restaurants to try out but especially since the chips/salsa were not to our taste. read more

The food was good but not the service, it sucked. My coworker is a regular there and I'm wondered if our server recognized my her attached to a bad experience with her. Not once did he come to our table other than upon request, I'm truly exhausted with bad service. I noticed how friendly he was with everyone else but us, each time we needed anything we had to call him over. The bartender did all the work for us and i notice he gave him a side eye a time or two. Idk but this 2 star is justifiably well given. read more

Unfortunately, we had a very bad experience here. Start out with the tea that which was tasted a bit rancid and so I decided to get something else to drink. I should have known that we should have got the tab and left.... I ordered moe chicken enchiladas, which is my favorite. Although not here. Tasted bitter and the chicken was tough like it had not had enough time to defrost from the freezer and they cooked it anyways. My son's chicken quesadilla had maybe two pieces of chicken on it that was $15. The rice was hard like it had been sitting for two days. Powering through my enchiladas the waiter takes my drink, which was halfway full and never brought it back. I have a tendency to choke when I eat tortillas so I could not finish my meal when he came back 20 minutes later and asked if we'd like the check I said yes we would like the check.. he asked if everything was OK and I said no I was not able to finish my meal because you took my drink and did not bring it back. He apologized, came back with the check and said that he had taken the drink off of the check...... It was a bad experience. It sucks because this place used to be so good and it has gone downhill. I don't think that we will be returning anytime soon. read more

Update: 2nd visit and tried some new items. Mr. Picky really liked his à la carte Chilii Relleno. My Mexican Shrimp Cocktail was pretty good but next time in addition to holding the jalapeños I would request more lime as it would perfectly balance the sauce. I also ordered an à la carte white enchilada as I remembered liking it on our first visit, not bad. Next time I think I'll try the Chimichanga. For dessert we ordered one flan and one Tres Leche cake. We always appreciate homemade desserts. Mr. Picky loved the flan best. I wasn't sure about the milk cake until I was a few bites into it, and then I decided the topping went with the rest of the cake, and I appreciated the fact that they got the bottom portion of the cake really nice and wet. Overall, not a bad meal and Mr. Picky, he says he wants to come back for more Chile Relleno. read more

Fajitas Texan are my favorite order. And of course, the margaritas have to do with it. Food is always prepared hot and fresh. Margaritas are always cold. read more

My wife and I went with my oldest daughter to eat at Rudy's for lunch today. We shared the Mini-Chimis and the mole chicken enchiladas, and I ordered a gold margarita. The food was quite good, the service was fast, and the prices were nothing to complain about. I was a bit surprised at how few people were there at noon on a Saturday, but I've seen the parking lot in the evenings, so I know they do more business then. We'll definitely be going back! read more

Ok. Went back. It was very good. Beef fajita nachos were excellent and half frozen/half rocks margarita was perfect. It was full by 5 p.m. on Friday, so go early or plan on a wait. Music was great and waiters seemed more relaxed. Still do not have salt and pepper on the tables, which is a great mystery. And they do not Splenda for iced tea. I'll let that slide - I'm packing! read more

This is a good spot for a TexMex brunch on weekends. It's not highly advertised, as neither the brunch times or menu can be found on their website. I recommend the Denver Omelette, with added ham. Very good! read more

So the place is somewhat packed for the night and at first I wasn't to sure about the restaurant the chips were not salted and the salsa was pretty basic.... But that's not what we came here for, we got the margaritas the frozen was actually a bit better than on the rocks..... the food was delicious btw ask for the habanero sauce if you want some real salsa on your burrito.... The food was very tasty and well seasoned the steak and fajita were nice and juicy and hot!.... Would definitely come out here again...I wasn't a big fan of the fries or the rice but the meat was definitely good. If the sides were more on par to some Home made food it would definitely come close to a perfect meal.... Also there wasn't much fajita on the plate read more

This is a neighborhood family owned restaurant. I went with the lunch special, a good deal price-wise and quantity-wise. The tacos al carbon were ordered by my friends, and both of them enjoyed the meal. As a bonus, Chili con queso was provided before the meal with the salsa and chips, and small bite size chips with caramel sauce was given to us (and other diners) as a dessert. This is not a date destination, but we had an enjoyable lunch with good service. read more

Here every Monday to see Karina! Sometimes it's a bigger group of us & we sadly can't sit with her at the bar but it's always great service regardless & she always has our drinks ready the second she sees us! Great food! Great people! Rudy always makes sure to say hi! Most restaurants owners don't care to know their regulars, so it makes you feel very welcomed! Very glad to be a regular here! Take. All. My. Money. (And they do ;) ) 100/10 recommend! read more

My go to spot for mole chicken enchiladas, hands down best mole sauce in H-town. The queso and frozen margaritas are tasty as well.

I wanted to try something different so I got the TexMex Burger. The burger is supposed to have cheese, bacon, avocado, tomato, grilled onions, lettuce, and jalapenos. I asked for the burger to be cooked medium and hold the bacon. Upon receiving the burger it was sliding apart and only had over cooked cheese, lettuce, and a small piece of tomato. I let the waiter know and he took the burger back and returned it with the avocado, a couple of sliced jalapenos, and uncooked onions. The meat was not medium, it was a salty, over cooked and felt like I was chewing a piece of rubber. Very disappointing. read more

Great food, service and ambiance and price. Kind of place where they remember your name. Every time! Highly recommended.

Nice atmosphere and food was excellent. Staff friendly and attentive. Definitely will return.

Soooo.... This place is really good! I love the authentic decor paired with the lights, the food is perfection, and the servers are really friendly! read more

Great margaritas and great service! We've been twice, and we have loved both of our visits!

Food was good. We ordered the fajita special with shrimp sausage and beef. Tortillas were on point. Will be back.

Been here several times. Best to go during week because it's soooo good there's always a line on Friday and Saturday night, kudos to y'all! Service is excellent. All FOH staff has always been friendly and attentive. They'll suggest different plates and have never failed. lol heir margaritas are 100% and their happy hour prices are sooooo amazing for that afternoon buzz. My absolute fav and I crave regularly is a bowl of the spicy chicken soup made w chipotle and adobo. OMG! Delicious! read more

2nd visit tonight was not good at all. It was Friday eve and they were very busy. It was nearly deafening loud inside. Took forever for someone to take our order. Appetizer came out wrong. Then the entree came out wrong as well. As I was eating the last of the guacamole on the plate, I bit into something hard & gross. It was the stem from the avocado. So gross and had to spit it out in a napkin. Not the way I wanted to finish a long drawn out ordeal with numerous mistakes. Mgr / owner saw what was going on, but made no attempt to come speak with us. Very unimpressed tonight! read more
