50 Best Mexican Restaurants in Katy

“We found this spot while walking the mall and saw it got great reviews.I tried the torta, my daughter got chicken nuggets and wife got the shrimp tacos. Everything was delicious.I highly recommend you try this place out. The owner was also there and greeted us, making sure we had a great experience. I’ll be back soon ?“

“We had great service here, our waitress Rosa was very helpful with the menu and very friendly. Made us feel like we were at our family house. Food was served in a timely manner and Hot. Great taste, good environment, good drinks, and the music was on point. I seriously recommend this place. Y’all don’t forget to ask for Rosa!“

“When you first walk in, it's a bit overwhelming to the senses. There is a lot going on in terms of decoration and like just things everywhere. It almost feels like a club type of vibe with a mix of gamer's room vibe lol. The menu is a little bit hard to understand at first glance because there is a lot to look at. The worker was super nice and she was communicating really well. The card reader was acting up and she voiced that so that was very nice. You can also change the sweetness level of your drink. 75% was good enough for me. Anything more and I feel like it would have been overly sweet. I got a jasmine milk tea and it was the standard of how it normally tastes. So nothing incredibly different which I like, it's essentially your standard boba shop with a theme. I would not come here with a large crowd as the seating is limited. It's definitely good for a photo op. Would come by again!“

“The food, atmosphere and customer service was outstanding. Sat at the bar and the bartender could multi-task between taking orders, making drinks and serving food. He was really good. Plus, military and first responders get 50% off of your meal… not the bill, but your meal. Great deal! Will most definitely go back.“

“Everything is legit here. The only negative I have is:1. they serve "taco plates" in a bowl so its really kinda hard to pick them up with out everything falling out.2. Instead of a full grilled jalapeno with your food, you get a tiny little sliver.Other than that, it's my go to place. Good drinks, good shots, good food, friendly service, and for a really good price.“

“The BEST I've ever had!!! Traveled from Florida and can't wait to come back. We have Fajita bowl, street tacos,cheeseburger ? and a burrito. The best cheeseburger EVER can't remember the name of it but it have avocado on it with a BBQ sauce on the side. Everyone was super nice from the time we got there until we left. A 1 service and food!!!!“

“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!“

“Best Birria in Houston Metroplex, stopped in for lunch with the work crew. My brother got the 8.99 taco lunch special, that is the most amount of food i have seen for 8.99 in YEARS!! Will be back with my family and every time we are working in the area. Fantastic service, clean restaurant and top tier food“

“I had the ramen combo that comes with 2 Birria tacos and it was amazing !!! The service is very friendly and fast.“

“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.“

“Great mom and pop burger joint. Restroom and dining area was clean. We came in on a Friday night around 8 and was seated promptly. Burgers were made from good quality ingredients. Everything was good but you have to try their flan. It wasn't too overly sweet and didn't have an egg smell. It was delicious.“

“This is my GO-TO! So If you like to ALWAYS have DELICIOUS Mexican food & salsas along with awesome customer service, THIS IS THE SPOT TO TRY!! They never disappoint. Food is always fresh & employees are very kind. They also speak English & Spanish.“

“The best restaurant according to my husband, who is Mexican by the way. The food is really delicious; I especially love the seafood there. And the Margarita is superb, and surprisingly at a very reasonable price. But oh my, the music there is so loud; it's too much for my Slavic culture.“

“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!!!“

“The best tacos I've ever eaten. Everything this place does is of very good quality. I give it 5 stars but they deserve 10.Quality and the best service, they are always very cool. It's a food truck but it feels like a Michelin star experience.“

“Always consistently good food to great price. Great vathe only reason why I gave 3 atm. It's because they can't control. They have no bathroom. But it's a truck to be expected. I go there for their churros all the timeverything else i've tried just as good!??Parking: Although it's limited i've never had a problem once.“

“I'm from LA and came to town to visit and decided to check this place out and I'm so glad I did! The miches were so good and big I actually was full and couldn't go out to dinner like I planned. What really made the experience great though was the employee who helped us, she was so sweet and helpful. She regularly checked up on us to see how we were doing or if we wanted her to change the taste.“

“I had been here for breakfast many times and her breakfast tacos are amazing. First time I've been here for dinner. The fish tacos are perfectly cooked. I like the way that you can customize any item on the menu. Items appear to be reasonably priced!!! ++++“

“First off, I NEVER leave reviews unless the experience was phenomenally wonderful or terribly bad..and in this case, OUTSTANDING. The ambience was perfect. We walked in and it was like stepping into Mexico. The walls were so pretty and painted, the layout was spacious, and great air conditioning. The bathrooms were clean and smelt fresh. Secondly, the service was awesome. Santiago was so kind and constantly checked up on us. We learned where he was from, and he gave us a background story on the restaurant so we definitely built a connection. It was a family of 7, so that’s always alot, but he was patient, and we got some laughs out of him, and had a great time. We celebrated my birthday, and he brought out a cake, a sign, and the whole restaurant sang happy birthday to me. I felt so loved and it made my heart happy. We started off with salsa and chips, and since being our first time he served us a whole plate of elote which was awesome. I don’t like elote but this one tasted amazing! I was shocked. Food overall was great. I had the barbacoa tacos and it was filling. The corn tortillas were homemade so they tasted outstanding!! WE DEFINITELY will be coming back again, and again, and again. I never had an experience like this so from the bottom of my heart…thank you ambriza“

“The queso was great, with a yellow cheese that tasted like Velveeta. I had to make myself stop eating it. We weren't too fond of the salsa due to its strong flavor, possibly too much cilantro. The steak and shrimp were good; the steak was very tender and well-seasoned, and the shrimp were perfectly cooked, though a little butter would have enhanced the flavor. The rice was some of the best I've ever had.“

“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 !“

“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!“

“Food is great ! Delicious. Got mine door dashed to work . Very well packaged . However they forgot to send me my salsa which is a major major part of the meal believe it or not ! As a Mexican salsa is very very important , happens twice ! I doubt the door dasher wanted just the salsa ! because of this I probably won’t be ordering again but I will give them credit for their non dry chicken and good tortillas and Jesus Christ amazing tamales ! Better than my mom’s ?! Amazing food !“

“Excellent service, food is amazing,“

“We were celebrating my husband’s 50th birthday and because He love meat we decide to try this place. The beef is high quality, the service is outstanding and the salad bar amazing. The cocktails are incredible too. I don’t know if is the same in a crowded day but our experience was incredible.“

“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!“

“Huge fan of this taco truck. The pastor here is so so good and full of flavor. Birria tacos here are crispy and flavorful as well. Salsa verde is spicy and delicious. Flour tortillas were not too doughy and had me wanting more. I like that their tacos aren't too greasy either. Good prices as well!“

“We had the queso flameado, quesabirrias, torta especial and house margaritas. Everything is delicious! If you’re looking for a chill but cute place to come have a casual bite with family and friends, this is the place. Andre’s was a great server as well!“

“Far out the best Mexican flavor in Katy ,tx I really recommend the carne asada or the smoke brisket tamales or just anything on the menu the chef is very passionate about what he does I highly recommend this place“

“This place serves some very good and delicious food. 100% would recommend for a place when your starving. My only complaint is that's it's quite a bit of overpriced, like 3 small tacos were like 15$. But besides that It is a very good place in general!“

“I been going here for over 12 years now ...it's a real hidden gym off fry rd and Clay next door to specs ...great date night ! 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 !“

“The staff is always friendly when we stop by. The have really good burritos and their sauces are so addicting. My favorite would have to be the green sauce, it has a perfect spice that complements the food. It's nice and quiet but the chairs always seem a little small for me.“

“I only have gone once, I was looking for something yummy but on a budget. I ended up getting the burrito with fajita meat and for the price it was very delicious! There was a generous portion of tomatoes and lettuces im used to a little less in comparison to fajita meat butt once again, for the price? I thought it was great and tasty!It's a cute little restaurant tucked into the corner of E 5th St and Katyland Dr. The map says a different name so don't get confused but the actual signage is correct. I definitely will be back to try out some Caldo de Res or perhaps a breakfast option in the future“

“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“

“One of the best places in the Houston area to enjoy posole! Perfect color and flavor without having to call the fire brigade out! Great attentive servers! Humble down to earth folks. Once you've been there, they don't forget your order!“

“As a Las Vegas native, one might assume a plethora of Latino restaurants abound, yet Colombian eateries are surprisingly scarce in the city. This establishment offers an authentic taste of Colombia, transporting diners to the heart of its culinary traditions. Upon entry, guests are welcomed by gracious and attentive staff in an impeccably maintained and visually appealing setting. However, the true highlight is the cuisine itself. During our four-day visit to Houston, my partner and I made it a ritual to dine here daily, relishing in the diverse and culturally rich flavors. I wholeheartedly endorse embarking on a culinary expedition at this esteemed locale.“

“Awesome tacos - by far best in the area. The Birria tacos are ridiculous! A little hidden gem! Highly recommend!“

“I absolutely love this restaurant and cannot say enough great things about it. They treat you like family, the food is great, the red salsa gives you life, and the margaritas are deliciously strong.Vegetarian options: This is my go to place for the veggie enchiladas - the best I have ever had!“

“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.“

“My absolute favorite meat market !!! I have been a customer for years now! I don’t go anywhere else for the meat. The groceries are a little over priced but the meat is worth it! They serve breakfast lunch and dinner. Delicious ! They also sell tamales and salsa !! Love it !!“

“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.“

“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.“

“What an amazing food experience! Ordered the Grande mix platter and 3 orders of Charro Beans. Amazing flavour in every bite! The chicken, spare ribs, fajita, and sausage were all so good! The Grande Platter was enough to feed a family of 6.“

“First time here and I enjoyed it very much. We got a family meal which included maduros (sweet plantains), Mexican rice, white rice, a whole chicken, avocado salad and fries. We also got salchipapas and an order of fried yucca. It was also prepped very quickly and was flavorful. The aesthetic of the place was wonderful, loved the art. The server we had was very friendly and communicative as well. Would definitely come back.“

“We got the small beef nachos for starters and 2 orders of the chicken quesadillas. Quesadillas were a nice good size. Food was very good and well seasoned. Quesadillas came with a salsa verde sauce (I wish it was spicy) but it was not. I would definitely go here again to eat this. I also saw chicken wings and fries on the menu so they serve other stuff not just Mexican food. We spent 33$“

“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-“
