From the kitchen

Service is great, setting is clean, and food is even better! Came right when they opened, ordered the best verde jugo, tacos de harina: huevo con chorizo y huevo con tocino. Have to try the salsa rojo!! New favorite taqueria en Houston and is close to Hobby Airport. 10/10 would recommend!

This was one of the best taquerias I’ve been to! When you walk in, it’s small and quiet. Not a lot is going on, it’s very simple but don’t let that deter you! I got a fajita plate with rice, refried beans and flour tortillas. The meat was super fresh and tender which is real refreshing compared to other places. They had fresh peppers and the refried beans were amazing! You can taste the love in their food! I got the sandia fresca as my drink. It caught me off guard when they brought it out in…

New spot off wallesville close to hwy 90. Food is really good, great service and friendly staff. No complaints here, quesabirrias were really good. We will definitely come back to this spot. The waters were huge and the waters were really good as well. No refills needed with the amount of drink they give you.

This small family owned establishment is well worth driving out of your way to try. It has a wide variety of options to order. Very clean and very helpful staff. They treat you with respect to all the questions you make. Very friendly and honest people. I didn't get to meet anyone there. I guess that since it was raining a whole lot. There were few customers inside. I will definitely be back. I've told friends about it already and they have thanked me for the suggestion. The all natural fruit…

This little place is awesome and has great food. Driving by you might just ignore it and not notice it. However, this is a hidden gem, the tortillas are hand made and their meats and tacos are great. Try the Burrito it's worth the price. I go there three times a week at least.
