50 Best Mexican Restaurants in Cypress

“This place has great grilled chicken. Seasoned and hot. Stopped here by chance because it was something new and I was pleasantly surprised. Asked Flor for a recommendation and she suggested the grilled chicken. Great recommendation. For a quick meal that hits the spot. It was perfect. I wish there was a two piece meal as the 4 piece was just too much to eat for 1 person. If you are in the area and hungry it's not a bad stop. Ordered to go so not sure about the seating area. Looked clean from outside.“

“Great food and strong drinks. Probably my favorite Mexican restaurant!! Love the family atmosphere here too“

“We went here for the first time this morning. WOW! Excellent tacos and omelettes. Decided this spot is definitely on the breakfast restaurant rotation.“

“Muy buen sabor de la comida y el servicio al cliente“

“Check out this place for some good birria and everything else.“

“Been looking for a good taco in Cypress. After a series of misses, this one hits the mark. Best tacos I’ve had in a minute, and the charro beans are wonderful.

Fajita taco - 4/5
Pastor taco - 5/5 (wish it came with pineapple.)
Charro beans - 5/5
Green sauce - 4/5“

“Great experience with Cheyenne, Frankie, and so many delicious margaritas! Didn’t even get a chance to try food beyond the queso (also great) because we got distracted over a variety of drinks made with their own mixes and purees instead of syrups. Big plus because of the lack of a hangover the next day. Big fan and will definitely be back again soon!“

“The very best Ambriza location. Great food/drinks, decor, atmosphere and waterfront view. And the staff is wonderful. Friendly and helpful every time I go.“

“always friendly, consistent and delicious. perfect little neighborhood eatery.“

“Will definitely be back with the family!“

“Wow this person Monique Coleman has never eaten at our food trailer! Just because we pass her on the road!! she doesn’t have the right to rate us from just that!!!! Wow 🤯 just also want to put it out there I worked from 5am to 4 pm daily and pulled a double shift today for Mexico 🇲🇽 soccer game till 10 pm!!“

“Nice experience here food r yummy test good 👍“

“This restaurant has Delicious street tacos“

“My wife and I ate there this afternoon and the food was excellent, service was prompt and attentive. It is a great family atmosphere with a variety of music playing with a colorful atmosphere. I mentioned to the Manager on the way out that the only thing missing was real Salt and Pepper Shakers. Fast food places use the little packets but a nice place like Rudy’s should IMHO have the real thing. We will come again and have a nice meal and a drink and will look forward to using their new Salt & Pepper Shakers!“

“Very good and fresh food!!! Have been eating there for years and will continue. Would highly recommend to my friends.“

“La Viva Cantina never disappoints! Whether we’re dining as a party of 20 or enjoying a meal for two, the experience is always exceptional. The food is consistently delicious, the atmosphere is welcoming and fun, and the margaritas are fantastic. Their private party rooms are perfect for larger gatherings, and the staff is always attentive, friendly, and accommodating. It’s one of our favorite places to celebrate special occasions or simply enjoy a great meal. Highly recommend!“

“Fantastic food, tastiest Mexican food in Houston“

“El mejor lugar para comer barato limpio y súper rápido, el personal muy bueno para atender muy amable lo recomiendo 100%“

“Loved the staff. they went out of their way to accommodate me and my wishes. They stayed on top of the service and made sure we didn't go without! The beef fajitas were flavorful and thick. We will be coming back!!👌“

“Great Restaurant- super top notch attentive service and amazing food! Chicken Mole is the best in the world...“

“If you’re looking for authentic Mexican food, Taqueria Mi Barrio is simply unmatched. The flavors are bold, the ingredients are fresh, and every bite feels like it was made with pride and tradition. The tacos are easily the best in the area—perfectly seasoned, generous portions, and consistently excellent.

Service is fast and friendly, and the atmosphere feels genuine, not commercialized. This is not just another taco spot—this is the benchmark.

Without a doubt, the best taqueria around Tomball“

“I really recommend this restaurant because everyone is very friendly and the food is very delicious and affordable 😋 yesterday we went for dinner with my family and Valentino pur waiter was so friendly as always he always great us with a big smile he is super friendly we really appreciate his amazing service this restaurant offers top service at very affordable cost and the food so delicious.“

“So glad I ended up stopping by this food truck. Delicious and authentic flavors from San Luis!! Food made to order and outstanding service. The whole staff was very accommodating and took great care of us. I ended getting the enchiladas potosinas, which were absolutely delightful. With great tasting food, authentic flavors, beautiful plate presentation, and welcoming service there is not another food truck that I could recommend more than taqueria fondita potosina. I’ll definitely make sure to make this taqueria my weekly staple.“

“The food is really good for good prices. I had the chicken tacos and a quesadilla and it was phenomenal. The only thing is that I went towards the evening and the sun was set so it was a little dark and alone as it is by a gas station. Everything else was top notch!“

“Every single thing about La Maria is beyond awesome !!!“

“Everything it’s all delicious“

“We love this place, the food is always delicious and the staff is incredible! We see a lot of our friends there because it’s right in our neighborhood! Great margaritas also!“

“Not our normal go to for Mexican food, but I like to try different places. My wife got a new job, so while the kids were at school, we had a little celebration lunch. Service was a little slow for only a few others in there, I had to flag our waitress to order and again to get our check, but overall not bad, food came out really fast. My wife had cheese enchilada with rice and beans. I had the (3) tacos lunch with two hard and one soft taco. Chips and dip were pretty good, red salsa would be better if it was warm. Both are meals were very good, fresh and delicious and we had a small take-out left over. Located less than a 1/2 mile off I-290 beside the Krogers, pretty easy access for travelers.“

“Excellent food, excellent costumer service“

“We had a lovely evening. The wonderful gentlemen who brought out our food was a delight to have. So sweet! Way to go Gringo’s cypress! You will earn our business time after time.“

“After an exhausting day at work I treated myself to a little treat. I stumbled upon them on DoorDash. I ordered the Dubai chocolate strawberries and holy cow they were amazing. I love supporting small businesses and I will definitely be back.“

“Recientemente visite el lugar me encantó la comida y las margaritas son deliciosas 👌“

“I try there tamales and that was great ! El charro has the best Tex Mex food . Thank you“

“The staff and food are both amazing. We will definitely come back again“

“I love this place the food the appetizers, deserts and the agua frescas are absolutely delicious! They have good portion sizes. Me and my family eat here all the time and we are never disappointed. The people who work here are always so kind and friendly. I definitely recommend this place! ❤️“

“My all time favorite breakfast tacos on the planet. Seriously! The chorizo and egg is sooooo good! The owners are so sweet and ALWAYS get the order right! They make their own salsa. My fave is the green but both are delicious. Spicy and flavorful. 5 stars isn’t enough!!!!!!“

“I don't know where to start, our waitress could not get our order right. She couldn't understand English to take our order. Food was cold , over cooked eggs, tortillas were raw. And last all the waitresses were huddled up just starring at us it was a very weird experience.“

“From the moment you walk in, you can tell it’s the kind of spot where people actually enjoy being there. The owner and staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, not in a forced way, but the kind that makes you feel like a regular even on your first visit.

The vibe is on point if you like Latin music—they’ve got a great mix playing all night, from classics to newer hits, and it really adds to the energy of the place. It’s a perfect balance between a lively sports bar and a fun Latin hangout.

And the food? Honestly, the ceviche alone is worth the drive from Katy. It’s fresh, flavorful, and done right—definitely one of the highlights of the menu.

Overall, it’s one of those hidden gems in Houston that I’ll keep coming back to. Great people, great music, and great food—can’t ask for much more.“

“Love this place me and my wife have been going here for almost 3 years, no where in Houston can anyone top Maria’s quesadilla😎😎 Anytime I’m away from home I miss this place, if you’re in doubt just grab a quesadilla seriously… She’s open late always good, you can’t rush perfection, I highly recommend and this is basically a restaurant on wheels no body can top this place in Houston, we’ve been everywhere but I MEAN NO BODY HAS ANYTHING ON THEM!!!“

“the best food, service, drinks and karaoke. very peaceful place with awesome waitress giving you the best attention. good prices.☘️“

“Excellent, delicious tacos!“

“We have always had a soft spot for this place, but the new owner has really turned it around. The food tastes fresher, the restaurant runs smarter, and the atmosphere is more welcoming. Maty's service is amazing, as it always has been. Her smiling face and attention to detail always has us coming back. Highly recommend a try. And multiple options for the kiddos!“

“Lupe Tortilla is always amazing! We love the Queso Compuesto and the best Margarita is the Platinum!

I want to recognize our server David:

One of the managers, Charlie, came by to say hello and make sure everything was perfect.

Also thank you Mike Adams for leading such an awesome team!“
