I've tried another location of Tacos Del Julio and my experience at this location was just as delicious. I came with a group and we all got something different. The consensus: sooooo good! Our server was very nice and our food came out quick and fresh tasting. read more

Authentic Mexican food. The atmosphere isn't anything special. The staff predominately speaks Spanish, but tries if your Spanish isn't great to communicate. Whoever said there were lots of vegetarian options is wrong. I had the omelette with potatoes, but I don't think there was anything on the menu that wasn't meat. My husband had the Al pastor, which he enjoyed just as much as when he gets it in Mexico. The food is really good for meat eaters I think. Also, the queso was good, and came with freshly made chips. I'd go back. read more

The food was bland and, lacked flavor, weak drink, decent service, but I won't be returning.

the food was amazing and loved are waitress fast service as well....the atmosphere inside was great and very cute..I will be coming again read more

Food is authentic Mexican, not TexMex! Yay!! Around this area, it's really the only place I knew to go that would be good. The portions are great but, the torta was slacking in flavors a bit. It was a bit bland. The Monterrey style tacos (which the waitress called quesadillas) were really good as were the aguas frescas. Service was friendly and fast and the place was clean and not loud. We will be going again when we are in the area read more

Ate here with my family yesterday. The food was great and the service was awesome! We will definitely be going back.

I have been looking for a place like this for a long time, they have the best trompo meat, it was so fresh it tasted like it just came out of the fire, they have Daily specials, the service was great, the environment was awesome, they were playing Mexican Music, the food was so good, it was similar to a home cooked meal. I tried the tacos de trompo The beef tacos And their quesadillas Beans, chips, the aguas were good , I had the tamarindo. Looking forward to coming back in this corner of Airline read more

The food here is fantastic during lunch time. The service is always prompt and the people are kind.

Wow - awesomeness and inexpensive!! I'll be back! RE-reviewing this experience - really did enjoy it! Furniture is worn down, the food is memorable! I had the Especelidas de Tacos (I think that's why it's called). Sliced, marinated, grilled beef on 10 or so small corn tortillas. With slices of avocados and fresh or regular cheese on top. Sides of fresh chopped cilantro and white onions on the side. Crew working there seems youngish and happy - much preferred over grumpy, dissatisfied crews. read more

For some reason it was cash only this day or possibly every day. Chicken street tacos were good and something we have never tried.

Drove by this spot this morning while in the area and decided to take a chance and try it out . THIS PLACE IS DELISHHHHH!!! I was a little hesitant because it doesn't look like much from the outside (I know , I know ) but I am so glad we stopped . I didn't get a picture when the plate with Chilaquiles first came out but midway I just knew I had to put y'all on this spot . Update - 4th time here since our original review !!! Still haven't a single issue with the food read more

One of the best Mexican restaurants in Houston! I recommend for anybody that loves Mexican food!

I had a job out here so I stopped to try this place and it was great. I been here 3 times this week and everything was good. I got their burrito and the special of the day. When you pick a seat they bring you out fresh cilantro, onions, lime, red&green salsa, and a cup of charro beans. The tortilla are not homemade but they are good. Great place to stop if you are in the area. read more

Had lunch here today with a coworker. We were immediately greeted and seated. Our waiter was prompt and very friendly. I ordered a campechana taco with a side of rice which I only had a bite or two of the rice as I was stuffed from the taco and bean soup. Instead of chips n salsa they served you a cup of bean soup which was Slap Yo Momma Good !!! The campechana taco had a great flavor but it was a bit salty for me. My friend ordered the barbacoa nachos and he enjoyed them. I also ordered horchata which I love. The dining area was clean and the staff was very friendly. Worthy of a bookmark and a try if you're passing through or if you live or work near-by. read more

Ordered tacos de trompo, worst tacos I ever tried in my life. Terrible terrible, the tortillas tasted old, the meat full of fat and the seasoning very bitter read more

Absolutely amazing! They have agua de jamaica so I was already sold on that aspect and the food was quick, hot, and very very good! The service was fast and the staff was very nice! It has a very hole in the wall vibe, but it really was good! I'll definitely be back! read more

Four co-workers and I went there for lunch on the recommendation of one of them and I was glad we went - very pleasantly surprised about the food and the great friendly service from both of our waiters! The food was delicious and everyone enjoyed it. It was served fairly quickly and was hot and fresh starting with the delicious charro beans. Since it was my first time there I wanted to sample an entrée as well as what looked like a delicious soup. I selected the Asada Julio and a small Caldo de Res, both of which came with rice and corn tortillas, and both were delicious. The soup was piping hot and came with generous chunks of carrot and peppers, and the beef was very tender. The fajita steak in the Asada Julio was well seasoned and complimented well with the creamy green sauce. The corn tortillas were excellent and went well with the salsa and chopped jalapeno I requested on the side. The cost of the meal was reasonable too. Well done. I am a fan and will be back! Thanks to Mayra for the recommendation. :-) read more

5.5/10 the avocado on my enchiladas was black , the waitress was staring a lil bit to much from far this place is not as it used to be back then read more

Perked up! The food is so good here, even when you can tell Mexican food is exactly what you're not in the mood for. After enjoying this place, we bookmarked it for every IAH trip. The same day we departed a ship, after a week-long cruise with 11 other family members, six between ages 4 and 12, and running errands, cleaning and packing, and checking into an airport hotel, my mom decided we needed to eat dinner because she would be traveling to South America. My mom is commonly in want of Asian food, steaks, or BBQ. However, we couldn't find those things near her hotel. So I yelp searched. The staff could not understand our English but worked together to find someone who could. I was apprehensive, while my mom was too exhausted. -Then our glorious orders landed on our table. It tasted even better! We got the steak tacos and the guacamole. Every time I crave Mexican food, or guacamole, or an avocado, I yearn for this place. ...Hmmm. I wonder if they're open today, on Xmas Eve. read more

Definitely a great spot to get some authentic tacos done right! Your order comes with a cup of their bean soup which has just a slight kick to it but plenty of flavor. For the tacos, it comes with a side of raw chopped onions, chopped cilantro, a couple slices of limes, with some caramelized onions. The tortillas are fresh, and the Trompos still juicy. Definitely a spot I would return to. read more

I ordered the enchiladas with avocado on top of the enchiladas . It was gross they add salsa on top of the enchiladas. And once you order they will not take it back bc then they will charge the waitress. They do not give you chips they will sell them to you even if you dine in. It's a rip off !!! read more

Summary: Different (worth going), and a mix of quality taste (some good, some average). Like a magnet, this colorful Mexican Taco restaurant with a green duck logo drew me in. I think it was the blue-painted wrought-iron fence around it. I figured that if they needed that kind of security, the food and décor must be good. OK, it's a chain (5 other). And some of that shows, in the marketing material, wall ads for plates, table ad for specials, and, I think, in some of the food. For example, the guacamole on my flautas seemed mass-made, too smooth and an unnaturally bright green color. The facility is in a good clean looks-new condition. As with many of these places in this category, there are plastic numbers in a chrome holder on tables. The sound of the TV with the soap opera is just too loud, so I sit far away (lots of tables here) by the Pancho Villa era photos on the wall. I wish there were more of those. The Menu has nice pictures of the plates ('Cu dos' to them... that means 'Kudeauxs' for you Cajuns). Yes, there is an English menu. Note that there are specials of the day, and several out-of-the-ordinary interesting menu items (i.e. tailored more for the Hispanic customer base). Before ordering, the waitress brings a bowl of baracho bean soup (muy delicioso, grade A), and three bowls of accompaniments: lime slices, chopped cilantro, and chopped onions. But there were no serving spoons. Hmmm. I wonder if people use their eating utensils(?). Also on the table are two squeeze bottles, one with green and the other with red hot sauces. The bad news: No chips y salsa Argggghh! So, I squeeze some hot sauce from each bottle on my knife (what else?) to taste. Yummm! Very hot and flavorful. In some countries, this good of a hot sauce with no chips is considered torture. I order the Tuesday $7.50 special, since it has three items. It arrives with a very hot plate, but just barely warm chicken enchiladas, hot flautas, and warm soft tacos (only with marinated meat inside... you fill with the accompaniments). Enchiladas with crumbled white cheese on top were tasty, but a bit dry. Enough chicken was inside for your protein allotment. I give these a B+ grade. Flautas were on the greasy side, and topped with the green splot of guacamole (barely a taste) and sour cream. The flautas, too, were tasty. I give these a B+. The soft tacos were way too greasy. I decided to scrape the meat off of the folded round grease pad. The marinated chicken inside (not very much) was OK, but not great, until you add a bunch of lettuce, hot sauce, onions and cilantro). Judging from the pictures on the menu, all tacos are served with that kind of tortilla, though. I grade it D. Service was good, up to the point of getting the check. There were only a few other customers at this lunch hour. OK, green duckie, there were enough positives that I will be back to try another dish to break my routine of typical Tex-Mex. read more

This place was ok. The caldo was very good and generous. But my chicken tacos were pretty bland, it looked like boiled chicken on these tiny little tortillas. My boyfriend's barbacoa tacos were big and he said they were good. Maybe we'll go back and give it another shot. read more

Terrible customer service, no margaritas, and super expensive compared to other Tacos Del Julio. This is in a low income area and prices here are way overpriced for low quality food. Food was not hot and for some reason even the canned Dr. Pepper was flat when I opened it. The waiter took forever to asked if we needed anything (which I did). I will never eat at this location again! Avoid this restaurant at all costs and spend you money on a restaurant that's worth it!!! read more
