Lately, I have to send food back because its cold. Beans cold, chicken breast hard, bacon wrap shrimp Refried and hard, 2nd cocktail made wrong-sent back. Very small portions now a days. Yall must be having financial problems. It feels poor. I dont like your food anymore. Will try Los Lucas too. Good Night

I went here with my friends for the first time last Sunday. The place was very clean and the wait staff were very nice. I order the fish tacos which were very good and had a good sauce on them, I had the rice and beans ,rice was too dry, but the beans were very good. We got the chili con queso which had a good flavor. This restaurant will go on my list to return, little bit more expensive then I thought it would be

Update: we haven’t been back since this review 5 years ago. We used to go almost weekly. Too many good options. They demonstrated they didn’t care about our business.
My family has been here many times. Today was terrible. I ordered the same thing we always order. This includes two kids burrito de carne meals for my 5 yo and 10yo. I specifically ordered it with fries as it comes in the kids meal with queso on the side (an option we have done countless times). For my children they brought out two adult burrito meals. We told them just to bring some fries (which took 20 min). There was no reason to throw away two burritos to make two smaller ones. The whole exchange was uncomfortable like they didn’t know what to do. They messed up and should have done what it took to make us comfortable to enjoy a meal with our 4 children. Instead He kept saying he could take it back, but that made zero sense. My kids were hungry and some fries was all that was needed. It should have been simple if you admit your error and move on. If they had taken it back it would have taken 20 min like the fries did. Not acceptable.
On top of this they left our fajitas without plates to put them on. I eventually flagged down the water & chips and salsa lady to get us some plates (she is very nice). No one seemed very observant and they were slow. The waiter then came out mid way into our meal and said the manager said they would give us the fries for free but had to charge for the adult meals. I told him I specifically asked for kids meals even saying with fries (the way the kids meal always comes) to make sure. I told him I’d be glad to talk to the manager. We sat there uncomfortably for 20+ more minutes while the manager never showed. We were basically just waiting for our check at this point after 8pm. Finally he brought our check and had removed one adult meal which made it the same price.
Basically this ruined our family meal. The food was pretty good, but the service was terrible. We even know some of the staff having been there so much in the past. Pretty sad the way we were treated. The waiter was clearly uncomfortable as well knowing they had messed up. I know mistakes can be made, but they need to be handled better without making customers uncomfortable the rest of the meal. I do want to praise my 4 children who acted superbly during this whole ordeal, despite one of them being 2 and already past her bedtime by the time we finally left. We also had $10 of reward points we planned to use, but by the time they brought us the check we just wanted to get out of there as soon as possible. Doubt we will return anytime soon. Beef fajitas are great for anyone who does go.

Alicias one of the original higher end establishments in Houston area, survived all the covid. Glad they are still around. Leanet and Ali are the best and definitely keeping the original dream alive.

When i try a restaurant I haven't been to i usually order the simplest food to make. Because if they the time to make it really good then all the other food should be good also. Today I ordered the beef Enchiladas rice and beans 🫘. It was DELICIOUS. Service was fantastic. The place is very nice and clean. I Highly recommend this place.

After several visits here I would not say it is bad, but it is mediocre and there are too many other restaurant choices out there. But maybe you will find something that you really like.

Food is subpar. I know people who love it but most don’t. Service is a hit or miss. It’s far from my choice of the many other similar restaurants nearby but I don’t dread going there when meeting friends/fam. I will say the street tacos are great.
Stopped in for Happy Hour. $10 large margaritas made with el Jimador tequila were a decent size and price, and they were tasty. The chips and salsa were complimentary, endless, and delicious. We split the Seared Red Snapper from the Spring Mariscos menu. It was pretty incredible, and easily fed us both- likely because our bellies were partially full of chips, salsa, and margaritas by the time the Snapper arrived. The rice served with it tasted oddly like Chinese fried rice which threw us off. The rice was edible, just unexpected and a bit salty.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 I absolutely love this place! We ordered margaritas, carnitas, and carnitas enchiladas—and everything was top notch. The flavors were incredible, and you can really taste the difference with their house-made tortillas—both flour and corn were perfection. On top of that, the service was exceptional. Friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. Can’t wait to come back! Highly recommend!!!!
