We dropped in the second week this place was open. I was sooooooo disappointed in the food and the service. The prices are unreasonable for the type and quality of food served. Sorry but probably will not go back.

We went to Gringos tonight. Was pretty busy because of it being a weekend. We were seated really quickly, no wait at all for a Saturday night! After being seated though it all went down hill rather quickly. We were asked by our hostess if we would like chips and dip and we said yes while we were browsing the menu. Chips and dip came out quick. After we decided on what we wanted (still have not seen our server) we waited for about another 5 minutes. When she finally came over she introduced herself as Kayla, asked what we would like to drink (sweet tea for both), she asked if we would like queso, yes we did. She walked away. She brought our drinks out after about 5 more minutes and said she was going to check on our queso. Did not ask about if we were ready to order even though we were no longer holding our menus. A different girl brought out our queso after about 10 minutes. A while later Kayla came back and took our order. (We are out of chips by then). She walks away before either of us could ask for more. I bought a young lady that was walking by and asked her for more chips. She brought them back rather quickly and slid them onto the table. (Husbands drink is empty now and Kayla is MIA). Finally another girl brings out our food and miraculously Kayla returned and literally shooed her away and rolled her eyes. My husband being pretty upset and really thirsty by then asked for a pitcher of tea. She brought him back 2 glasses of tea. After we were done eating he had to go and look for her so we could pay. She was standing just out of view talking with another waitress. I will NEVER be back at this location. I will drive to spring. Unbelievable service from Kayla.

Great food and atmosphere. We have enjoyed eating at both the Spring and the Woodlands locations for years. What impressed me the most was the fact that my 2 yr old granddaughter's meal was served before the adults' meals. In doing so I was able to feed her before she could get fussy from being hungry or tired of sitting at the table. It also allowed me to have a delicious hot meal!

Wife and I went last night (Friday). Place was packed. Really didn't mind the wait since it was nice out. Every staff member was very nice. Wife got the fried shrimp enchiladas and I got the seafood enchiladas. Both meals were very good. Wife loved her enchiladas. I enjoyed mine and we would definitely eat those again. I knocked one star off because in my opinion their drink prices are way too high. I can get three margaritas on a cruise ship cheaper than two here.

After a day that felt more like a marathon in work boots than a regular shift, my wife and I decided to treat ourselves to a meal out, aiming to ditch the lingering cloud of office blues. Little did we know, our evening was about to be upgraded from economy to first class courtesy of Abbie, our culinary first responder.Entering the restaurant felt like walking into a different dimension, one where stress was barred at the door - although it took a minute for the memo to reach our brains. But then, like a beacon of hope in the dimly lit room, came Abbie.Abbie wasn’t just a server; she was the lifeguard at the deep end of our parched, post-work existence. Her drink suggestions weren’t just on point; they were a lifeline thrown with the precision of an Olympic javelin thrower, pulling us back from the brink of dehydration and despair.The meal, under Abbie's guidance, was nothing short of miraculous. I’m talking about the kind of meal that makes you write home about even if you’re just from around the corner. It was as if Abbie had whispered our deepest, darkest culinary desires into the chef's ear, who then conjured up our dream dishes.Her knowledge wasn’t just impressive; it was as if she had a PhD in Deliciousness from the University of Yum. She navigated us through the menu with the skill of a seasoned cartographer mapping uncharted territories, turning what could have been a mundane meal into an adventure.Abbie's cheerfulness was infectious. She treated us not just as guests, but as if we were the guest of honor at the coronation of the King of Flavor Town. Her enthusiasm was the secret sauce to our dining experience, adding a zest that no condiment could match.And let's talk about her vigilance - Abbie was on us like a hawk on a field mouse, but in the most charming way possible. Our glasses were never empty, our plates never cluttered. She was like a culinary superhero, swooping in whenever she saw a glass half empty or a frown half formed.In a world where I had the power, I’d nominate Abbie for the Nobel Peace Prize of Dining Satisfaction. She wasn’t just a server, she was a first responder to the disaster zone that was our workday, pulling us out of the rubble of reports and meetings, and breathing life back into our spirits with a defibrillator made of impeccable service and a smile that could light up a dining room. Her management would have to be navigating without a compass to not see the treasure they have in her.

super special food. I love gringos one of my favorites for
So I haven't ever been a fan of Gringos. But it was a last minute decision to come to the new location in Conroe. And I have to say, it was a great decision! Everything was amazing. The food, the drinks, and our server Chris. One thing I would say, the music needs to be better. But we will be coming back.

This is a new Gringo's that opened in the last 6 months are so. It's beautiful. We've eaten at the original Gringo's in Pearland,TX for many years because we lived there. But recently we moved away but still maintain a place at Stow Away Marina on the north end of Lake Conroe. The Gringo's is all clean and new. I especially love the bar with the bar stools cover in material that looks like cowhide...different colors. The food has always been exceptional and the best shrimp wrapped in bacon. I've tried it in so many other places and nothing compares to Gringo's. The service is the best and the atmosphere pleasant. Plus you get a free ice cream cone to finish off your meal. Go try it out....anything you order you'll be pleased with!!

My family and I have just so happened to get Chris as our waiter every time for our last 4 visits and he is awesome at his job! He is on top of everything from making sure we’re not waiting on refills and always making sure we’re satisfied with whatever we ordered and going the extra mile with everything. He has made all of our visits to Gringos a very good experience. And the food is really good too lol
