7 Best Tex-Mex Restaurants near League City

“Great lunch menu with plenty of delish food. Chip was so good and tender!“

“We celebrated our daughter’s birthday with a big party of 25 people. Yannis was the only server and he was fantastic! Very quick service, hot food, drinks stayed filled, and he was very organized! He really went above for us tonight when I asked about them doing anything for birthdays, he let me know they don’t do that anymore, but that he would love to sing for her. He gave her a huge shout out at the restaurant and had our whole section singing- and brought her a delicious tres leches slice! We will definitely be back to specifically sit in his section!“

“This place is great, my husband and I never spend more than $40 to eat here. They are known for their Puffy Tacos (corn tortilla). The plate is less than $15 for 2 tacos, beans and rice. The tacos are pretty loaded. Their cheese enchiladas are good. I will state that the enchiladas are more tex-mex (my fav), so they are really cheesy and have a chile con carne sauce. The margaritas aren't my thing, but I'm picky, so they might be yours. The staff is always kind and attentive.“

“The only place I want to stop and get El pastor tacos, these are the best tacos I've had from a little lunch spot in a really long time and I'm glad I found them!

Edit: 10/07/2026 I've been here now almost 10 time and man the quality is always top notch and I knowu tacos are going to taste just as good as the time before, I've brought my kids and wife here. They absolutely love the food and the customer service is beyond amazing! They always smile and say hello, such a great place to eat!“

“I celebrated my birthday with a family member for the first time at Red River Cantina. The food was outstanding! The service was right on. The ambiance was TexMex classic. The ladies bathroom was impeccably clean and well stocked. Our server surprised me with a beautifully and delicious complimentary Sopapillas with cream and a lit birthday candle. Red River Cantina has nothing to envy their competitors. We all know who they are. Red River is our new restaurant for delicious and reasonably priced TexMex dining! Next on our list is their BBQ restaurant! Can't wait!“

“We’ve been fans of all of the locations of Barcenas for years. The Marina Bay location is every bit as exceptional as the others. The food is consistently delicious, the service is outstanding. Nelly is so welcoming and makes sure every single table is happy. Manny is always just the absolute best and incredibly patient with our indecisiveness. You can’t beat the Taco Tuesday prices and they serve breakfast all day every day! A great experience every time we visit!! I’ll put some pictures in the comments.“

“The waitress named Susanna is top notch. She speaks very well and she is one of the best waitresses my husband and I ever had serve us.“
