22 Best Tex-Mex Restaurants in Katy

“I went to Gringos to order the taquitos. I frequent the Gringos Pearland, Texas City, and sometimes Fuqua (Houston) locations for work. I always substitute for flour tortillas and fajita beef/chicken. This location stated they couldn’t do it and never heard of it and they only had the premade versions. There should be some way that all locations can be informed of the substitutions available. Call the other locations and confirm. They will tell you they do it all the time.“

“Can’t say enough nice things about this place! First came here for dinner with family and then ended up hosting a baby shower here and from there service food to atmosphere everything is just top notch!! Our server Aldo was so nice and patient with our party the entire night!! Usually don’t go to restaurants multiple times but will def be back to this one!“

“The food was great! Everything was seasoned well, came out hot, with great service. And it helped tremendously that there was a play area so the children could play while we waited for our meals. And don't worry, you can be "kid free" indoors.Kid-friendliness: Feel free to enjoy a meal outside while your children enjoy play time on the covered jungle gym. Eat and play. It's the kid way.“

“We love the food! We ordered street Tacos and Tacos Dorados. They’re different of what we are used to. My girls also got kids meal. One ordered the Steak Taco and the other one a Beef quesadilla. Service is a bit slow, but the place is small and you can easily grab someone’s attention and they come immediately. According to my daughter the beef was hard to cut (butter knife) but yummy. The other one thought the chicken quesadilla had too much cheese (lol) and the chicken was dry.The margaritas were great! My favorite was the house margarita on the rocks, it’s dangerous.. is one of those drinks you can chug and will get you later..I had the guava margarita first and it was delicious. The watermelon was good but not as good as the house and guava. The guava comes in a martini glass.Overall the food was good and the prices are great! ?“

“This place is a gem! Can't understand why more folks haven't found it already. We've tried several different items on the menu and all have been excellent! Service is very attentive. Prices are very reasonable and portions are generous to say the least. Their salsa is the best. Bar is well stocked. Won't disappoint that's for sure.“

“Mother and daughter lunch on Mother’s Day was a special treat. The restaurant was nicely decorated for Mother’s Day with table decor and we were offered complimentary nachos. We ordered Margaritas on the Rocks and frozen the glasses were topped with a nice touch of rose petals. The staff and service is wonderful, the food is fresh and the chips and hot sauce is very good - keeps me coming back ! There are TV’s around to watch sports - we like to catch the ASTRO’s game. This place is a hidden GEM. Y’all check them out.“

“Finally some authentic TEX MEX and right here in my Katy backyard. Literally!!! Gina and Johnny hit a grand slam on this one. Food is outstanding. Give them a try. Highly recommended and one of my new go-to spots!! Homemade tortillas?? Yes please!!!“

“Hidden gem in Katy!Do not let the road construction keep you from coming out to Neca’s. The fajita’s poblanas are our favorite…tender steak, mushrooms, poblano peppers, onions, and tomatoes covered with cheese on a sizzling skillet with rice that gets crispy on the bottom. Great meal to share!“

“I'm also not sure who Victoria is either but she has become one of my new favorite people i've never met. Food is delicious and service is great. Second time coming here and they just keep getting better. I had the fajitas (come on wednesdays for their fajita day promotion). Beef was so tender i didn't even need to use a knife to cut into it. The portion was great for two and the sides were generous. Can't wait for next week! This is our new local spot !“

“The food is great! The restaurant advertises "the best tacos in Texas." In my experience, they just might be right. I especially the like mole chicken, which is just a bit picante but amazingly delicious. Sometimes there is live music.“

“It is kind of like Cheers where “everybody knows your name”! The service is always top notch, and Ray and his family are so welcoming and attentive!If you like a margarita that is strong but doesn’t taste strong, this is the place for you!Dietary restrictions: They are very accommodating for my milk allergy!“

“We were looking for somewhere convenient to eat near Mo's place, this was a nice surprise! The queso, beef fajita nachos, and fajita combo were all great, and the rice and beans had a good flavor. Restaurant was clean and service was prompt and friendly. Would definitely recommend and be back.Parking: The parking lot was busy but we were able to locate a spot“

Great Friday night spot to take the family out to eat ..The food is Superb and Fantastic ! I recognize everyone from over 12 years ago as well ! Get the White enchiladas! Omg they are the best !“

“Went and picked up a takeout order after a long day at work. Food was ready five minutes before predicted, restaurant was very clean. This review is mainly for the two staff members working the pick up register at 445pm on 4-22-2024, they were so kind and so so thoughtful. Absolutely made my day.“

“Torchy’s has really nice quality food and a decent atmosphere. The wait time isn’t long and the drinks look well-priced. That being said, their prices for tacos are a little bit higher than they should be. Almost $5-6 for a singular taco. I feel they could be priced more close to the $2-4 range.“

“I have eaten at El Jarrito for many years. The food is excellent, the Margarita's are always great and the service has nearly always been good. This is my FIRST choice for eating Mexican Food.“

“Dinner with family was wonderful at Alicia's Katy this evening! The spinach and mushroom enchiladas were fabulous. Cheese enchiladas were wonderful, as were the beef fajita nachos. There were so many choices and all equally delectable. Thank you for the outstanding service for making our family time special. 5-“

“Jasmine was ON POINT. I was impressed WITH THE WHOLE THING. I usually don't go for mainstream Mexican chains. The burrito bowl was great. The regular salsa sucks but what they sent with the bowl was the bomb and should be the go to for themParking: I was able to get in easily in my large wrecker truck at lunch hour even“

“Nice spot!! The food was fresh and hot a tasted amazing. The presentation of the food was beautiful. The breakfast tacos are big and fully stuffed. I could only eat one. I bought them for my job and Laredo was the only place open at 5am since I have to be at wirk at 6am. So ths was a win win for me. Thank you Laredo I will be back. I forgot to take pictures but I’m going back so I’ll take some next time.“
