Review La Mexicana Restaurant - Houston

Carlos Burns
Setting a great standard in Mexican food. Love the decor, murals, enclosed patio. Chicken soup 🍲 was outstanding. Beef tips were plentiful, tender and delicious. Deserts outstanding.

The food is really good. High place for tex -mex, and some reviews are correct when it comes down to service. The hostess don't greet or welcome you when you walk in, they just look at you and look away. The Aguas frescas were amazing! It's a good decent place for the prize. They give alot of food especially the parrilladas.

We came across this place, always looking to find a great new spot for Mexican food. It was our first time trying this place, which was very packed during our visit. Not very friendly upon entry to the business, the host did not greet us, just asking how many. However, it did not take them long to sit us down, around 15 minutes. Now, our waiter did not seem to be having a good day and was rude. At less, he was not trying to rush out after we ate. The food took only a short time to come out and looked delicious. The taco was good, with fresh homemade tortillas. The menudo was right on point and had excellent taste to it. However, it lacked meat, and it was mostly hominy. The chilaquiles are traditional. The atmosphere is perfect, and they have TV everywhere. The customer service was ok. They have clean restrooms, which is a top priority. Parking is limited, but they do have additional parking across the street. I recommend this place and try it again—hopefully a better experience. Safe travels. Prost

Enchiladas here are delicious and you can never go wrong with their breakfast! We come here often and no matter the time of day the service is outstanding and they are kid friendly 🙌 They have happy hour early in the morning if that’s your thing 😅

La Mexicana is a true gem in Montrose. Their food is nothing short of amazing, offering a delectable taste of Mexican cuisine that never disappoints. What's equally impressive is the customer service you'll find here. The staff goes above and beyond to make your dining experience exceptional, adding that extra layer of warmth to your visit. In summary, La Mexicana is a must-visit spot for those seeking great food and top-notch customer service in Montrose. It's a delightful destination for anyone looking to savor the flavors of Mexico.

I also ordered a medium Quacamole and it was huge.. the small Chile con queso was also huge and we ordered a small.. Hubby ordered a Huge chicken burrito (no pic).. total bill was about $50 bucks.. with 2 teas..

Our place to stop for breakfast when coming into Houston. Breakfast is sold all day long. Fresh made flour and corn tortillas. Sopa de fideo just like home. Menudo is also tasty.

Best restaurant so far I've been to in Houston Mexican food Margaritas are great not only that the service was outstanding it was about an hour before they were closing and the waiter was very polite and courteous and professional that's what I'm used to and that's the way it should be with everybody regardless of what time it is
Luke Lucchesi
This restaurant is terrific! Their happy hour is always enjoyable. The food is flavorful. I love the tiles throughout the building, they look hand-painted! And the servers are exceptional, as always. Check this great place out located in the heart of Montrose!
Chuck Galvan
Great spot for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. I enjoyed myself here as well as the huevos rancheros this morning
Scott LaRoche
Great Tex-Mex in a fun atmosphere. Service was just OK but they were very busy so it's understandable. Only negative is the salsa is kinda thin but some may like that.
Aurora Trevino
Very disappointed with our return for late breakfast. Service was slow, food cold, portions smaller and total was shy $100 for 6 and that's bc one meal returned for extremely salted! Think we failed to check if it was removed from tap bc that would put us $16 plus per each (when one guest only had two tacos, if it was removed $19 plus for 5 bit high for ordinary not extrordinary breakfast .... gheez!! Also seated at back area while no one bother to notice elderly with walker not best seating choice bc the ramp is steep. While la Mexicana has added additional parking and nicer patio area hope they return to better service and food. 😒 It will be a while before we make our way back

It had been a while that I had been there. Not too impressed this time. Ordered the Tortilla soup. It was just a bowl of tomato soup wuth shredded chicken. Very bland, no taste. Margarita was a typical glass of frozen mix. Could have gone to a taqueria and eaten a lot better food and a lot cheaper!!

I hate to say it about all of these other reviews but yeah y'all sound like you were having a bad day. This place brings my family from across town. I love this place and have only ever had great food and service. Probably because I treat them like anyone would want who is making your food, with respect. Go find a chain restaurant, stay out of H-town originals. If you don't like something, ask to have it replaced, it's food, not something to whine about. Mad respect to the family who owns this restaurant.

I would love to give you all 4 stars but not impressed. The food was okay but the service was horrible. The waiter took a bit longer and did not know how to make change. While the food was okay and colorful it was still missing something. I live 4 min. Away and was trying something new. Lesson learned sometimes not the best.
Jane Buchanan Morin
Even though we had to wait for our waiter it was worth it. The food was very good . Have enough leftovers to take home for dinner the next day. We will be back to try something new.
Allen Ray Zieger
The food was way over priced for the quality. The Barbacoa was very bland lacking in flavor and the Menudo was pretty much the same one of the bottom five I've ever had and the portions are very small

Great service. Fab food best patio ! Love this place!

I ordered the migas plate. Itis described as scrambled eggs covered in crumbled white cheese with a side of refried beans all of which is placed over a bed of fried tortilla chips. Well, the cheese had just been taken out of the deep freeze. By the time the eggs made it to my mouth, they were as cold as ice. The beans were just luke warm. As far as the bed of tortillas was concerned, I came across only two, count’em two tortillas. No bueno. Take the extra time to go to La Tapatia on Richmond.

We were not offered a lunch menu. Went for lunch and was never offered a lunch menu. Had this soup and it was absolutely horrible.
David PeĂąa
Unfriendly staff, unspicy salsa, extremely salty beans, huevos a la mexicana was a pile of greasy mush, store bought corn tortillas, over priced mediocre breakfast dining experience.
Kia Martinez Nieto
Favorite plate is Mole Poblano, 2nd favorite is the Parrillada Mixta. If you haven't tried you need to. Margaritas are always on point!
Samuel Galvez
I don’t live in Houston so when I go I always make it my go to spot for Mexican food. It’s a Houston staple and I love their food and service. I will always be a faithful customer. Can’t wait to go back.

Lanny Griffith
No place better than La Mexicana. Wonderful family serving up authentic Tex Mex for more than 30 years. Love the Trevino Family for keeping it real in the neighborhood.

Best margaritas and Mexican food in Houston by far. Love the chicken poblano plate.
