    Server seemed new and had to relay every question to support staff. We asked if we could split the bill and the waiter said it was impossible because multiple things of the same food/drink were ordered and bundled. Gave new restaurant vibes but overall the food and drinks were delicious. Would visit again!

    My wife and I had dinner with my son and his girlfriend tonight. Everything was delicious from the two appetizers to all four of our entrées finishing with two desserts. The server was very polite, sweet, nice and she was training a new server and she was also very polite. They were both knowledgeable and helpful. Our starters were the octopus and the taquitos and they were excellent for entrées we had tacos Al Pastore, the tenderloin, a salad and the skirt steak every single one of us uttered the words “This may be the best” of what we were eating we had ever eaten. An excellent dining experience truly. The setting has always been lovely.

    When you want to splurge with friends or family, order the tapa de Loma for the finest cut of beef. As good as anywhere in Houston and outside of Saltillo Mexico. Other cuts are also good. Love to get the enchiladas for lunch. Ask about the wine selections. Good values from Mexico. Truly a neighborhood gem.
