This place used to be really good, now it's just ok. Got some nachos they were passable, like a C+ or B rating. I asked for onions and cilantro on them and they gave me one heaping plate of onions and another heaping plate of cilantro, like an absurd amount. Just kinda bummed at the mediocre food.

Ugh I really wanted to like this place, everyone I know says its amazing but our experience the day we went about a month ago was not great. We went for a friends birthday, they got our drinks wrong many times and took forever to refill them, the tea tasted really off and everyone at our table who had it agreed. The green sauce was extremely watered down and tasted like guacamole water or something, very bland and very little taste. The queso wasn't hot, it was barely warm and the food overall was sub-par and barely any of us liked their dinner. Everyone else in the group had eaten there before and said it is never like this and some of them went back a couple weeks later and said the food was great.willing to try it again but its going to take quite a bit for me to change my review.

Passed this place a million times and never stopped. Decided to take a chance after reading the reviews and was not disappointed! Great selection of authentic Tex-Mex favorites and a great margarita. Salsa was fresh and service was awesome. It was busy, but there is open seating on the patio with plenty of shade and a slight breeze made it bearable in 90 degree Houston weather.

The food was tasty but. I do believe that I got food poising. Have been a few times without any issue but my girlfriend and I was both running to the bathroom a few hours later!

My family and I ate here for many years when we lived in Spring. Visited twice since including today 07/16/19 as we met long time friends there. Service was slow and the food just didn't have the same flavor.

Great food, great prices! Love sitting on the patio. Super glad they don't allow smoking in the bar area anymore.

The food used to be great. This time it was very bland. The salsa was good but the chips were stale. The service was good so I gave it 3 stars but we won't go back.

The food is good but I always end up sick. I have gone twice and each time I get real sick. Customer service is not that great. I think the churros are worth it but that’s about it.

Everything is delicious but my Fav. El Tejano with Beef Fajitas and Corn tortillas and beef Tamales! Also the Chkn Caldo is so Good! Chips and Salsa is amazing! Everything is great here I've been coming since high school in the 90s that's how good it is! Sometimes there's a couple or a few sexy Waiters too and that doesn't hurt for Eye Candy lol!

Good food. They used to have good drinks but they recently changed them, so not so good anymore. The staff is mostly good but if they think you don't speak Spanish they make fun of you or call you names. The bar is non smoking.
