Fantastic flavors all around. The chicken was well seasoned, and the fish was grilled nicely. It's impressive how much flavor they get from simple ingredients -- the cilantro added a really nice freshness. The chips and queso are a must every time -- fresh chips with that cheesy queso, what a hit! The churros were also great and paired perfectly with the chocolate sauce. Overall, this is definitely becoming a regular spot. read more

I have seen these spots popping up, and I was eager to finally give them a try. I'm a big Burger Joint fan, and knowing that the Taco Stand has the same owner I was optimistic This spot located in the Greater Heights is relatively new. There's a parking lot, but we went on the weekend, and while the interior didn't look overly full, it was somewhat difficult to find a parking spot. The restaurant itself is clean. Everything is pretty much green and white. There's covered patio seating. You order from a window and there's a large menu printed nearby The menu offers all sorts of tacos, meats, burritos, bowls, quesadillas, quesabirras, sides, and even kids meals. You can get beer, margaritas, and non-alcoholic drinks. There's also a breakfast menu The food was good, and it didn't take too long to come out. My main issue was the service. The individual taking orders seemed to have a bit of an attitude and just seemed "over it." Furthermore, we mentioned having a queso coupon and when we were given the total I placed my card on the reader and I was told that I did it too fast and the queso wasn't taken off. The odd thing was, we walked away and realized that they didn't add the queso and the coupon was for free queso so they could have just rung up an additional queso. This individual had the vibe of eye rolling everything, and it honestly left a bad taste in my mouth Some tips: You can order online to avoid any wait. Just go up to the pick-up window when it's supposed to be ready for a painless interaction There's a little bar area where you can get pre-packaged (to-go) salsas, pickled onions, limes, etc etc etc. the salsas are tomatillo, habanero, and jalapeño (I believe) You can order margaritas to go, which we did! Cheers!! read more

hate to leave a negative review, but this experience really missed the mark. The food was underwhelming at best, nothing really stood out, and everything felt pretty bland. The salsa in particular was disappointing; it lacked any real flavor or spice, which is kind of the bare minimum for a good taco spot. Unfortunately, the bigger issue was that we didn't feel well after eating here, which made the whole experience even worse. Between the quality of the food and how we felt afterward, it's not a place we'd consider coming back to. read more

Since March, this place has turned extremely horrible. The customer service is not only UN-Professional, the long wait times just to receive mid-not so good food. What happened to this place? There seems to be new managers.. By looking at the yelp reviews I see this restaurant has gone very downhill with replies from management saying they'll fix this but I still see recent 1 star reviews. read more

Stopped by for some breakfast tacos around 8 am. Tacos were prepared quickly and they were good. Staff was nice. It was easy to get in and out of the parking lot even with a good stream of drive-through customers. My favorite part of the meal was the sauces. I love heat and their sauces have a lot. read more

Decent spot! My boyfriend and I used a BOGO coupon for a burrito, so we ordered the carnitas--and it was delicious. The wait time was only about 5-10 minutes, which was great. I'd definitely come back. read more

I'm giving 3 stars because, honestly, the food is really good. I always get the chicken burrito, it's literally one of my favorite items on the menu, along with queso and chips. Delicious every time. However, the customer service at this location has been disappointing, especially compared to my visit yesterday. I ordered online both days, so all I needed to do was pick up my order at the window. Yesterday, the guy who handed me my food didn't greet me, no big deal, but he also didn't say thank you, have a nice day, or anything. I asked for sauce, and instead of grabbing it, he just pointed toward the door and closed the window. That was... wow. Okay, "thanks!" I came back today because, again, the food is that good. But now I see why maybe I shouldn't have. I stood at the pickup window for nearly two minutes, like seriously 2 minutes, with no acknowledgment. A lady came to the window, started preparing orders right in front of me, but didn't say a word. She looked at the screen, bagged items, and ignored me completely. Then another employee came up and talked to her, also without offering any help. If this is how the establishment is going to operate, I won't be back. The food is great, but I'd rather spend my money somewhere I'm actually acknowledged when I'm standing right in front of you. Third time won't be a charm for me. read more

We've been here a few times and sometimes it's good, sometimes it's a miss. Today was a miss. Why in the hell would they pack an order of a burrito, four tacos and salsas in one small, very thin paper bag while all the tacos are leaking juices??? The order soaked through the bag in the short time it took to get home and splattered the burrito all over the floor. Waste of money and time. Also, yall have got to get different corn tortillas. Whatever pillowy corn tortilla nonsense you have going on is not it. The tortillas still fall apart with a little liquid. The last disappointing bit was the poblano and cheese taco- a lot of them still have the skin on it which is unpleasant as the very filled taco is an about 70% unseasoned cooked poblanos. Just overall a really disappointing experience. read more

Don't order the poblano taco, they cut up the entire poblano pepper WITH seeds and throw it in the taco. That's not the way a "rajas" poblano taco should be made, seeds should be removed and only skin. read more

Amazing experience at The Taco Stand Heights! I've tried the Webster and now this location, and I can say the quality of the food and the recipes are consistent and I love that. The staff was amazing so welcoming, and service was quick and efficient. Great atmosphere on the patio. We tried the queso, it was so good! With crispy nachos. We also had their special which is a Gordita filled with carne asada, queso and beans, spectacular! Reminded me of a torta, but tortilla instead of bread. We also had the quesabirria which is my favorite item in their menu, great birria, melty cheese and crispy tortillas, it is a must. The carnitas were delicious! And the suadero amazing just melts in your mouth. We love love the homemade tortillas! Very happy customer, The Taco stand never lets down! read more

Customer service here is not professional and the food offers no redemption. We went here because we really enjoy the burger joint however this place does not meet the same level of quality. I believe it has to do with the manager there. The staff are poorly trained and in a situation where they could've fixed our order they decided to be rude and slam the window shut in our faces. Our order was completely wrong and when I asked for it to be fixed and refunded for stuff we did not order they basically told us to F off. Extremely rude manager and the food is honestly not very good for being in a city with excellent Mexican food. Pretty sure it was re heated and the elote was watery and of poor quality. DO NOT GO HERE expecting good for or good service. With that said this place has potential if the management is changed and food quality improves significantly. read more

Ordered 3 barbacoa on flour (which I paid extra for). Received 1 barbacoa and 2 whatever those are on what tastes like corn tortillas. Super disappointed. Only liked the barbacoa one... read more

Hard to rate - first time there today was for takeout for their steak quesadillas that was buy one get one free! The restaurant itself is really nice. The quesadillas were pretty average. Good in size but not the most flavor. Wouldn't get them again, but would go back to try their tacos. read more

2.5. Not a great experience. Kinda unpleasant cashier talking to me and her headset at the same time. Chips came undercooked, which I've never experienced before. So chewy that they got stuck in my teeth. Worse was that I returned them and the cashier just sort of grabbed them without acknowledgement and started talking into her headset again. My girl and I are the only people in the place at this point. They use those long range blinking service things. Wasn't explained if I had to take them to the front or if they'd come out to me. Turns out I had to take it up multiple times to get chips, then drinks, then tacos. Sat outside but the most obvious access door was locked so had to loop round through the front both times. For such a small place it's unintuitive. Sounded like someone else was having a problem with the soda fountain while I was there, too. Tacos were good though not spectacular. Competitive pricing. Campechano is something different, nice and rich, but if you told me it was just barbacoa I wouldn't second guess you. Fried fish was meh, underseasoned. The salsa bar with escabeche was the highlight, but there's no bowls or anything so you have to awkwardly reach in there and carry handfuls of them. Overall just an odd vibe. Seems like they focus on drivethrough, but then why stick a TV on every f'ing wall? I'd maybe run by if I wanted a decent taco quick and didn't know if a truck was around. Otherwise it's back to Pistoleros for me. read more

The customer service here is unbeatable. Anytime we've had an issue someone has stepped in and made it right. That is much appreciated. read more

The Taco Stand - Steak and Steak n eggs taco - Tacos Near Me - Houston, Texas

Montrose doesn't have much sit down Mexican restaurants, this is probably the best thing you'll get for what's available, not that the food is meh but it's not as great as your hole in the wall or food truck that'll deliver authentic Mexican food and I know that's a silly comparison but the only reason I'm doing such comparison is because of the prices, $16 dollars... for 4 corn tacos, what made me laugh out loud to the cashier was that the menu read "50¢ for cheese" so I ask her is the 50¢ added on top of the cost of the 4 tacos or is it 50¢ added on for each taco? She told me it was the 2nd option, yeah that's just silly but you know I still tried the spot out and I will say it delivered on great taste and they offer a topping bar with a great selection, I will say though for the price you do get a lot of meat so that was great to see the tacos were loaded with meat, again I only got 4 pastor tacos so my judgment is based off that, I wouldn't return here on purpose but if I'm in the area late at night and want some Mexican food, sure I'll head in and get over the somewhat ridiculous price, overall though definitely worth checking out and service was great as well and the place itself is really nice and has great vibes. read more

Is $5 for a taco a bit expensive? Yes. Is theirs absolutely worth it? Also yes. The only taco I don't recommend is their grilled fish taco. The fish is overcooked and not having a creamy sauce makes it kind of bland and the salsas available don't compliment it well. The quesadillas are just phenomenal. Every other filling I've had is very good, and the campechano (pork, chicharron, and chorizo) is especially decadent. Pollo, carne asada, and guac are also so good. The nopales is a bit rawer than I'm accustomed to but it's good. The salsa bar is also the bomb, I especially love the smoky & spicy Arbol and don't forget to grab some pickles, the garlic and carrots are read more

The Taco Stand - Great job - Tacos Near Me - Houston, Texas

I've never left a Yelp review. This place inspired me to make my debut. Dogsh*t service. Not once has my food been warm at the drive thru. And I come a lot bc it's close to home when I get off work. Avg 10-15 min wait at the speaker just to order. I tip $5 for 3 tacos every time because I know service industry jobs are tough, but these scallawags excel at giving zero f**ks. They need to collectively realize their true calling and go work at the DMV. Also the tacos are shmid af. Shmediocre, if you would. Shmundane, even. Aight I'm done. Thanks for reading. Go somewhere else if you have the option read more

I love this new addition to the joint stand place family. We got there just in time before the rush. The patio was perfect and the horchata was refreshing after a long day. Ordered three tacos but two did the job for sure. The shrimp was seasoned well and brisket was super tender. The corn tortillas didn't apart and salsa options are appreciated. Even the pickled veggies. The guacamole was flavorful too. Will definitely be back for a late night craving read more

Terrible customer service. The person at the counter completely cut me off and was extremely rude. Not worth your time.

Tried this place out to catch up with some friend, the environment was nice especially for a friday night, they have tvs and were playing the astros game! The torta was very flavorful, specially paired with their jalapeño salsa. My friends tried the quesabirria which they enjoyed and we shared the chips and queso! Parking lot is limited though. read more

I saw them on Uber Eats so I decided to give them a try cause I had to buy one get one free for quesadillas. They were OK. Not the best not the worst. I put the green sauce on them to give them some flavor. Very greasy. Not much flavor on the meat. Maybe I caught up on a bad day, but I wasn't really a fan of them. Probably gotta eat there and check out their other tacos or something because this meal was subpar at best. Again, the green sauce really made up for the lack of flavor and the taco so I'm glad that got that down at least. read more

In a city where Tex-Mex options are more prevalent than gas stations; I pick my restaurants based on customer service. I ordered a regular fountain drink, and as shown in the picture the price is $2.49. Arriving at the window and the "manager" charges me $3.49. No big deal, however instead of abiding by their posted menu and pricing, she decides to pick a fight about how it's the new system they have adopted and the menu has not changed. So, first lesson learned, they are snakes at the Taco Stand trying to take advantage of your money when you are not double checking the receipt. It is untruthful to be charging one price at the counter and advertising another. Second lesson, customer service is not a priority, instead of charging me the posted price or comping the drink in total, like many other restaurants would/should do, the "manager" instead offered to just remove the drink in total. read more

I'm back with an updated review. Stopped by on Christmas Day, night to be specific, and it was super busy ! Not much of a line outside but the drive thru was fairly long. Nonetheless, like before, I received great service. The man taking my order was very kind. I ordered 1 barbacoa taco and 1 grilled fish taco on flour tortillas. As expected, there was a bit of a wait. No big deal because the line was long and it was Christmas. This time around my food was delicious! Seasoned well and was super filling. The portions were pretty large as well. I was super pleased. I think another reviewer mentioned improvements have been made and I definitely agree. Thank you to The Taco Stand team for a delicious meal this holiday season. read more

Yall hire racists here? I went to pick up an online order at 11 pm. 2 other people were waiting for an order. The black guy in front of me told the black lady his name. She gave him the food and gave him a genuine "thank you". I walked to the window and said " hi I have a pick up order for John". She acted like she didn't understand and put her hand to her ear. I repeated I have an order for John. She handed me the bag. I said thank you and she closed the window. Sad behavior and low key racist. On top of that my food is COLD. TORTILLAS NOT EVEN GRILLED. Did not get my drink utensils or napkins. First and last time coming to this place. read more

Overall, the food is good. However, I'm just not a fan of their brunch/breakfast options. That's more of a preference than a reaction to their quality. We like to come here and have a few drinks and tacos on their patio a few times a year and always enjoy ourselves. Classic counter service tacos. read more

I've eaten here multiple times..the street tacos are REALLY GOOD! However, I had a shrimp burrito yesterday and it was terrible. Every piece of shrimp hadn't been peeled, so naturally they also weren't deveined. It was crunchy and I could taste the poop in the shrimp...I couldn't finish it. I opened it up and sure enough every piece of shrimp hadn't been shelled. There were a few questionable pieces that had some discoloration as well. A little disappointed since this normally doesn't happen. read more

They get your order wrong 90% of the time :') It's good when it's good but genuinely don't even waste your time or money here

We have eaten here a couple of times and the food has flavor, however the chips always seem stale; the flavor is okay but too difficult to chew, taking away from the overall experience. The staff was nice enough and the service is okay. The ambiance is an indoor/outdoor open air concept with A/C and fans which allows for flies and other unwanted pests. We have eaten here once for breakfast at 10:00 am and going again we arrived at 11:02 am and told we were too late for breakfast (stop serving at 11:00) So we had grilled fish tacos (MahiMahi) which were okay but a bit dry. They have numerous choices and levels of spiciness at their self-serve salsa area, which makes for a good way to personalize your food choices. read more

I really dislike this place... and every restaurant they own. Burger joint, taco stand and all the like. In my opinion..It's all a wanna be gentrified, sub par, suburbanites interpretation of the food being offered. If you look at the locations they are opening it's the exact crowd they are targeting. The taco stand was probably the worst breakfast taco I've ever had. Cold eggs, cheap and barely melted Sysco cheese. I could have had better at a gas station. That morning they were not even busy! read more
