Reviews for Polanquito in Houston, TX
Location is in the heights and I think that?s why the items are priced a little high . The food came out quick , flavors were... great . The horchata latte was my favorite item on the menu . Read more
It was absolutely delicious!! The staff is also very kind and attentive. The menu is authentic and there?s something for... everyone to try. The chilaquiles were to die for. Read more
I was looking forward to becoming a fan of this restaurant but after today's visit, we will not return. Polanquitos is truly... overcharging for meals that are basically thrown together and not even served warm enough. I had the mole chilaquiles...all theydid was throw mole sauce on tortilla chips, add cotija cheese and add a small scoop of refried black beans, at a whopper cost of$14.95. Three very small picadoras we're $11.95 and it was just salsa, cotija and chopped onions on a little masa tortilla.After tip, we walked out of there spending almost $70 dollars. Definitely not worth it and we like to eat out a lot. Sodisappointed that we decided to go elsewhere for dessert. Sure didn't want to pay $12 for a couple of churros. Won't bereturning. Read more
Really enjoyed brunch here. The chilaquiles, huevos, and guac were perfect. Delicious Mexican coffee and churros. Nice... atmosphere. Read more
I've been looking for a piece of Mexico all over Houston, and today I finally found polanquito. Most authentic Mexican food in... town! Delicious food, awesome staff, beautiful place, it has it all. Chilaquiles are my favorite dish, and in two years I hadn'tbeen able to find decent, authentic chilaquiles in Houston. These were it. If you want to eat REAL Mexican food, this is theplace for you! P.s. do yourself a favor and try the horchata latte and empanaditas de arroz for dessert. ????????? Read more
The staff is extremely friendly and so helpful explaining all the diverse and intricate dishes.The acapulco shrimp cocktail was... refreshing and perfect for a hot summers day. The chilaquiles are to DIE for and the best remedy for hang-overs. The chickenwith mole is my favorite dish and oh man, did they absolutely nailed it! BUT the best part was dessert, the empanadas with ricepudding are worth all the hype. And of course, you can?t forget to try the Horchata latte is an absolute game changer. It?s afamily owned restaurant and you can definitely feel it in the comfortable and familiar atmosphere. If you?re looking forauthentic and delicious Mexican food, look no more because Polanquito is the perfect spot for you. Read more
First let me digest the quality of the food. Appetizers were not as I expected given the high reviews I read. The tostadas were... stale. The guacamole was not at all fresh. The queso fundido was not warm but cold so the cheese was hard to eat! Theesquites(corn in a cup) also served cold was really disappointing. The mini flautas were also cold and very hard to chew. Thepork (crispy corn patties) was ok but again served cold not hot or even warm. So disappointed. I wanted so much to like justone thing. I don?t like giving bad reviews. But I also like to give my honest review to help someone pick a place to eat that isat least decent and serves warm or even hot dishes. Oh, the flour tortillas were good but alas cold! The wait staff really doneed to be trained. Read more
Not dissatisfied but not satisfied. The food wasn?t bad but it wasn?t amazing. The service was ok. The decor and coffee cups are... very authentic but that?s about it. It?s good to have if you don?t know any better when it comes to authentic Mexican homecookin?. Read more
