Do not go here they love to play fake nice to get tips I look white but speak Spanish as my first language and they love taking about their customers not in a good way one thing I kept hearing was them calling everyone cheap if they didn't get a good tip? The food was mid you'd be better off just making food at home it has no love or favor it makes sense tho considering that these people seem very miserable at their job. Tbh I rather get McDonald over this read more

Food was bland and found hair in my food. I went out to eat on a friday during lunch. The place wasn't that busy but thought I would give it a try. Ordered my food and found a piece of hair in my food. When I mentioned it to the waitress she seemed to be in a bitter mood. While they were accommodating I don't think they understand or even grasp the importance of customer service in the food industry. Food was mid but service is absolutely awful. I believe all locations seem to suffer with the same dilemma. read more

This Tepatitlan is usually not busy, so you get seated pretty quickly. Its a large place with lots of seating. Nicely decorated with the mexican restaurant style. The food is ok, but if your expecting this Tepatitlan to be like the one on North Main you will be let down. However the prices are fair. My food was not memorable. So if you're not picky and you want fast cheap mexican food. This is it. read more

This is a good, quiet, "hole" in the wall Mexican restaurant. Service was good, food was okay & price was decent! They have chips & salsa. They serve it in bottles but if you ask for a bowl, they will give it to you. I ordered the carne asada, and it was good. Definitely not as good as other places I've tried, but again okay. It comes with corn tortillas which was yummy. Enjoyed the company & service. read more

Taqueria Tepatitlan - Carne Asada - Mexican Near Me - Houston, Texas

Picked up a taco order here after drinks on a Saturday. This was the only place I could find that I hadn't tried before that was open. I ordered the breakfast tacos (chorizo & sausage) and a shrimp, tripa, and fajita taco. After unpacking them when I got home, I dove in. The chorizo breakfast is one of the better ones I've had although I wasn't a fan of the sausage. The shrimp taco was decent, the fajita and tripa tasted like other places where I've had them before. There's so many taco places in this area so there's a lot of options. This place isn't the best but I can see why it has a strong following. Perhaps I'll try other items if I venture back here. read more

Taqueria Tepatitlan - From (L-R): shrimp, tripa, fajita, breakfast-chorizo, breakfast-sausage - Mexican Near Me - Houston, Texas

Food is not good, seems like they just reheat everything. The beans seem like they were maid the day before and so is the rice. I ordered enchiladas and honestly can say that they were no what I expected! The chicken was dried/old and the tortillas where soaked in oil. The only good thing that looked fresh on my plate was the aguacate that was served with the salad they give you. The servers are just having conveying the kitchen and you can hear everything. They don't ever come and check on you besides to pick up your plate once you leave, I would not recommend this place's specially cause everything looks old and dirty! read more

So much #regret that I came here. I am so confused *why* I keep finding bad Tex-mex in spring branch with so many places in the vicinity. I just want a tasty Chile relleno now that Dona Lupe closed. The green sauce was fine, red sauce okay. The chips are thick and a bit overcooked. The tortillas were terrible and tasty like the pasty ones sold on the grocery store bread aisle that are loaded with preservatives. The chile relleno (~$10) was decent, but nothing to write home about. The crispy ground beef tacos had strange looking meat that I'm told tasted fine. Overall the whole experience was pretty meh. The restaurant was mostly empty and super humid and kind of felt grungy. I'm definitely gonna keep looking for better Tex mex. :( read more

This is place is great, authentic and homey when you see the scenery. Come by and support this local spot. read more

Muy mal servicio , jamas nos ofrecieron mas cafe trajeron el desayuno equivocado , mencione que la fajita tenia un sabor raro y solo dijo la mesera toda la fajita es la misma , y se retiro . read more

I decided to try here after reading yelp reviews. After looking at the menu I decided to try their Parrilladas with beef and chicken and also ordred the charra beans instead of the refried version which supposedly cost me .75 cents more. The chips and salsa were delivered to me with both red and green salsas in squirt bottles and a basket of good chips. I liked the red salsa better than the green. The squirt bottles weren't all that annoying as it is a more efficient way of distributing the salsa. Chips and salsa were good. When the entree arrived it all looked good. The beans were excellet (some of the better ones that I have had). They had alot of bacon pieces in them and were very tasty. The meats were both good and I enjoyed the meal. The only real shortcoming was the amount of guac, pico de gallo and shredded lettuce. It should have been more. Like I said it was a good meal and my service was very good. I think a 3 is a fair rating for this place. It is a good place to eat if you are in the vicinity. read more

Love the breakfast! Plenty of breakfast options. Food prices are very fair. Wait staff is on point

Some of the best menudo in town! The verduras en escabeche they serve with the chips is another favorite. As Olivia stated this is not the fanciest restaurant in town but it is clean, the food is good, and the prices are reasonable. We are in Spring Branch so a little Spanish helps but it's not obligatory. It's a comfortable neighborhood restaurant. read more

We came here after reading the yelp reviews.. I'm confused and not sure if it's even worth reading any reviews before making a decision on whether you want to try a restaurant or not ... well let's get right to my review...it's better if you speak Spanish because it's very difficult to communicate with the staff in English... food is bland wait is long place is empty no music just a tv playing a Spanish channel in the background ... prices too high for what you get ... we defiantly don't recommend and will not come back!!!! read more

Taqueria Tepatitlan - No one here ... I'm not surprised - Mexican Near Me - Houston, Texas

The place is decently arranged, clean and it has a nice decor. Veery Mexican! Electric orange and green on the walls make you think of those little towns near the Mexican Pacific Coast. The sounds coming out of the Jukebox sway between Vicente Fernandez and La Oreja de Van Gogh... I guess the guys in the next table making the selections cannot make up their mind between Rancheras and ComRock. About the waitress: she is super friemdly, and she knows her craft. She was prompt to mention all fruit drink selections are not from concentrate. You know, agua de horchata (rice) agua de jamaica ( ) piña, naranja... I chose horchata. A bit too sweet, but otherwise great. Fajita plate special for less than 10 bucks came prompt, well cooked, sizzling and with good sides. No guaca... but hey! 8 bucks, hombre ! read more

Yummmmmyyyyyyyy I will definitely be coming back for that vuelve la vida cocktail and enchiladas with horchata

Great breakfast tacos on homemade tortillas and fresh! Friendly service, we eat breakfast here often. The cheese enchiladas are great too.

We have been getting breakfast tacos from here on a weekly basis for the last several years and the food has always been very good. Homemade tortillas and the different types of salsa are all delicious! read more

Maggie & Trish were far too nice with their reviews!! I should've known better than to order a T-bone steak in a Mexican restaurant! Tough, over cooked, dry and lots of gristle that was totally un-chewable!!! Service was poor and staff showed absolutely no interest or concern regarding my dissatisfaction! Take my advice...don't waist your hard earned money here, I will NEVER return EVER!!!!!!! read more

Great place to come with the family! Definitely not a fancy place, but if you're looking for a great Mexican restaurant with authentic food, and a fun environment, decorated with loads of tacky Mexican relics. I strongly recommend this place. I will be returning for more. read more

Came here for breakfast with my husband. I ordered chorizo with eggs. Came with a side of refried beans and potatoes. Beans needed salt and were somewhat bland. Flour tortillas are homemade but are small . Waitress not very friendly. Customer service is everything. Wont be returning. read more

From the moment you walk in you are greeted with a Mexican traditional environment. The decorations make you feel like you are truly in a Mexican restaurant in Mexico. I couldn't really decide on what to get so I decided to go with their traditional Tepatitlan dish. OMG it was amazing. My husband ordered the Enchilada dinner and man, I kept wanting some of his! The amount that you get and the quality of the food is great! But best of all, you get all of this with an unbeatable prices. Definitely becoming a regular here. read more
