This is second time we've ordered over the weekend to pick up via curbside. Received a text the food was ready while driving there. Waited 10 min then called and was told he'd bring it out. Waited another 15 min and nothing. Had to go in. Food was good but way too many options to deal with bad customer service. Never returning.

I got the classic dish at Los Tios: the stuffed puffy queso from 1970. It was a decent meal but not what I expected. The name and description made it sound like a chimichanga drenched in hot queso (clearly that is not what's in the picture but it was still good!) I will say that the vibe of the restaurant was super cute & had good low lighting where you don't feel like you're in a interrogation room but you can also still see your food My husband couldn't wait to dig into his chicken fajita (clearly since he never follows the foodie girl "phone eats first" rule ) As some of you know, this man is one of few words and instead opts for his own scale which I like to call The ZicoMeter. If he really likes a meal he will say so. "That was really good" If the meal is average he will simply provide two thumbs up If he's mad we spent our money cause it wasn't even worth it he'll say, "well we could've cooked tonight." Or just give a soft smile when asked , "how was everything?" Los Tios got a soft smile on the ZicoMeter. But that's probably also because I literally almost DIED at the start of our meal from choking on a chip (which was definitely a consumer error and nobody's fault except my own #HungryHoustonHotties) ASK FOR THE PUFFY CHIPS THO! (And the QUESO is yellow. Idk if other people notice that haha)

Came to this small shopping center for some items from the Honey Baked Ham to go into our freezer. My wife said she was hungry and we should eat before buying to-go items at HBH. I looked around and saw Los Tios. She said okay. So we went over there first. I had not been to LT in a decade or two. Los Tios is as good, as it was a long time ago. We visited this location around 2 pm on a Thursday. Parking and seating not an issue. The atmosphere is very simple and classic. We ordered 1 LB chicken fajitas with 1/2 lb. brought to the table and 1/2 lb. packaged to go. Mix of flour and corn tortillas. Added a link of jalapeño sausage. Every bite and flavor was perfect to my memory and my wife thought it was great, as well. The service was kind, efficient, and courtious.

Delicious food! Service is always great and the waitstaff wear genuine Mexican white shirts. My family and I have going to this location since I was a baby in 1975. Never disappointed! They have terrific beef and chicken fajitas, the rice is amazing and the beans are terrific too! You get cheese, sour cream and guacamole with a fajita order. Lots of restaurants don't do that. It's always "extra" with other places; like extra cost. Not here! Margaritas are always good and pack a good punch. The thin tasty chips are served with the traditional red salsa AND the green salsa. I love both! Your drinks will never get low, the service will always be great and the comfortable seating is typically available unless you go on a weekend. It gets really busy on weeknights, but weekends are super busy. They have a bar area available for dining and a few tables outside too. Don't miss this gem. It's been a regular place for me going on 47 years! $60 (after tip) for our meal last night. No drinks on this trip, but I've had plenty in the past and they are good!

Service was good but the food quality was mediocre. The taquitos dorados were dry. The waiter offered a complimentary praline, which was basically a mix of too much sugar and flour.

Tonight I called my order in togo for beef fajita quesadillas and a queso. I arrive 5 minutes before the order was ready, I wait at the bar for the bartender to bring my food because he said it wasn't ready yet. I live 5 minutes away from this location so when I arrive home all the quesadillas were extremely soggy and wet and so greasy. The beef fajita was super hard like if it was sitting out for a long time. I normally order Togo from the West University location and never have this problem ever, even when driving all the way home. So I'm guessing my food was sitting for a long time before I actually received it. Was not satisfied and would like some sort of compensation or money back for my order. I've left a review on google and I've yet to hear back from anyone.

The OG TexMex Institution. Brought the first margarita to Houston in the early 1970s. The food is classic TexMex, down to the yellow cheese and corn tortillas. The service is sincere in its earnestness. No smoking in the dining room (that's been updated) but otherwise, the ambiance is a Time Machine back to an earlier era of Houston TexMex; very 70s & 80s. It's a whole mood; vintage, not terribly spicy, old school TexMex that is unfussy and simple. Sometimes that's all you want.

I haven't eaten here in a few years, but it's not for a lack of suggestion. We had an errand to run in the area and I decided we had to come back. My boyfriend hadn't eaten here before and I really wanted to find a new date night place as our usual spot really isn't very good. We arrived before noon on 12/21 and I was immediately comforted as it's just the same as it has been for decades. The hostess quickly seated us and our waitress appeared within a minute or less to take our drink order. I ordered the lunch special and chose a chili con queso puff and a cheese enchilada. The special also included rice and beans. I chose charro. He ordered something that included the above and a tostada. The chips and dips are amazing. You get salsa and green sauce. The chips are thin and crispy-perfect for me. My boyfriend is Hispanic and raved about them. Within 7 or 8 minutes we received our food and, Ohmygoodness, it was delicious! He said it tasted very authentic and wondered where in Mexico the recipes were from. The waitress didn't know, saying the cooks use their own. Well, wherever it originated, I think it's the best I've ever eaten.Our drinks were quickly refilled without asking and the bill was promptly given as soon as we finished. Our total wasn't much, but the service and food was so good that my boyfriend left a huge tip. Sure impressed me. LolI have so many memories from this place. When I was younger, every year my mom and I used to go to the Honey-baked Ham Company, stand in line forever the day before Thanksgiving, and finally we'd walk on over to Los Tios for the best Mexican food ever. Mom is gone now, but it holds a special place in my heart. I'm actually choking up just remembering our memories together.We both agreed that even though it's located about 30 minutes away, we have most definitely found "our place" and are already planning the next date. Definitely recommend!!!!
