Fish taco was incredible! Seasoning was perfect and it was crispy. Steak taco was just ok. The tacos are HUGE!
The food was good. The migas were a bit soggy, but not terrible. I gave it 3 stars because they served our food in plastic to go... containers. It?s horribly wasteful to serve food in to go containers. Why not invest in proper dining ware? Especially as arestaurant. As someone who is trying to lessen my carbon footprint, I was sorely disappointed to be served on single use plasticware. I wouldn?t go here again solely because of this reason. Read more
Such a cute vibe and food was incredible. Everything tasted very fresh. Plants were positioned everywhere which made for a chill... environment. Seating options were plentiful. It was a seat yourself restaurant, so we chose the back which was located outside.We went during busy hours and still found a seat and parking. You order off a QR code and they bring the food out to you. Wewere surprised with how quickly we received our food, as there were only 2 runners in the back of this busy restaurant. Wehelped ourself to waters from a cooler. The idea of this restarting is fantastic and low maintenance. A few things that we didnotice is that the food containers that the are served in seem to be wasteful (unless the reuse them). The tortillas were a bitsoggy. Also the only tables left were small circular ones. There were 3 of us and we had ordered a few extra plates forchips/dip. We had to put some plates and drinks on the ground to make room for everything. However that was an ?us? problemsince we chose the table, knowing that there were 3 of us. Price was a little high at least compared to Mexican type eateries inhouston. However, great experience, delish food, and we left overall satisfied. You cannot order wrong at this place. We will beback! Read more
I was skeptical to try this place because of the way they spell "tamale." There shouldn't be an "e" at the end, but we decided... to give it a shot. This place has great vibes and atmosphere, definitely 5/5. We ordered the chilaquiles, chicken mole taco, andthe chicken tamal. The chilaquiles were really good and the salsa verde was tasty. The tortillas were not crunchy but it'sbecause they were covered with the salsa verde. The refried beans were the star of the plate. Overall 4/5. The chicken mole wasalso delicious, had great flavor but a bit pricey. I'd order it again if it wasn't $6 for one taco. The Tamal was a bit dry andthe masa needed more flavor, it was bland but the chicken inside was good. We also tried some chips and salsa. We wanted toorder it but it was $5. Luckily the table next to us didn't finish theirs so after they left we snatched them up. I guess youcould say it was a steal ;) Very glad we didn't pay for it because the salsa was not good. It had no flavor and tasted liketomato water. The salsa they served us with the taco and chilaquiles was bomb AF tho. It tasted very fresh and good flavor. I'dbe happy to order a big portion of that salsa if they offered it on the menu. Overall experience was good, would come backagain Read more

The tamales here are ridiculously large?which would be cool if they had a good proportion of masa to filling?but they don?t. ... They give you a WHOLE LOT of masa, and just a thin sliver of filling. (See pictures). But if you like masa, it tasted okay Read more
