My first time here and I wasn’t disappointed. It was early so I had breakfast. I had the Huevos Rancheros plate which included 2 eggs cooked your way, beans refried, a side of chrispy potatoes, your choice of ham, sausage links or patties and one tamale. It was served with hot, freshly made corn or flour Tortillas. It was all Hot n Delicious. The service was excellent in which the server would come by every few minutes to check in on me especially drink refills. Waitress was Friendly n Courteous and the restaurant was spacious n spotless. A Great choice to eat or drink. Highly recommend it!

We stumbled upon Teotihuacan Mexican Cafe while in Houston and it was such a great find! We were close to an appointment and craving Mexican food, and this place did not disappoint.
We ordered a shrimp dish and cheese enchiladas — everything on the plate was so good. The proteins were flavorful, and the beans and rice were just as delicious.
We’re from Washington State and it was about 76° on 12/10/25, so we asked if we could sit in the outdoor seating area even though it was empty. The staff said yes right away and were so kind about it. They kept checking on us throughout our meal, which I’m sure was a little extra work since we were the only ones outside, but they were attentive and welcoming the whole time.
This is a great place to dine — flavorful food, friendly service, and a relaxed atmosphere. We’re really glad we found it and chose to eat here, and we can’t wait to go back next time we’re in Houston! ️

This place was so delicious!! Great vibes, friendly service, and amazing food. I got the chilaquiles rojos and it was so good. A crazy amount of food and all of it hit. Nice beans, great potatoes, tender pork, runny eggs, and the best part of course the crunchy + saucy chilaquiles. Tamale was also very nice. Everyone was so nice and the horchata was also nice and refreshing. I can’t wait to come back!!

Customer service was great, food was plentiful and delicious. We ordered the fajitas with short ribs, steak, chicken, and shrimp. I think the tortillas were homemade and delicious. Chips and salsa didn’t disappoint. The order was enough for 3 people to share, but the food could use a little more seasoning. I definitely recommend trying this place you are guaranteed to find something on the menu to your liking. The frozen margaritas were delicious also!

Everything was delicious. We went for a weeknight dinner and it was pretty crowded and lively.

Excellent meal was had for a reasonable price. The menu is extensive. Carnitas were awesome and a generous portion. They offer homemade corn and flour tortillas. My companion loved the enchiladas so much that we had to wait until he ate every last one. No desserts this time. Definitely recommend.

I visited this place after reading positive reviews, but my experience was just okay.
The staff was friendly and helpful, which made the overall experience better. However, the food didn’t quite meet my expectations.
The food wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t particularly good either. It was just decent. I wouldn’t be disappointed if I ate there again, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to visit.
The prices are a bit high, but considering the area, rent is probably not cheap. You could find comparable food elsewhere for less.
One major disappointment was the fresh waters. They were not fresh at all. You could tell they were made using a powder or some kind of syrup. The flavor was almost non-existent, and the flavors that did exist tasted artificial. I asked for a tamarindo water, and it was awful. I asked for it to be switched to a lemonade, and it was just as bad.
Overall, I wouldn’t recommend traveling to this place to eat. I would only recommend it if you’re nearby and want some decent but not great Tex-Mex.
I don’t drink, so I can’t comment on the alcoholic beverages.
Also, this place is very loud. I wouldn’t recommend coming here if you want to have a quiet conversation.

It’s a relatively affordable, authentic Tex-Mex experience in the heart of Houston Heights.
I would say the pros are their fresh handmade tortillas are very good, their menu is on the cheaper end compared to most other sit-down Tex Mex places, and the menu is huge with lots of variety.
The con I would say is the quality can sometimes be hit or miss but probably comes with the cheaper price tag. Still would come back!
Their fajita meat was a bit thinner and not as juicy as I would’ve liked but still had good flavor
Waitresses are friendly and ambience is great and authentic

My wife was recommended this restaurant by a coworker, and I’ll be honest I was a little skeptical at first.
This is Houston, and Mexican food has serious competition here. But wow… we were completely blown away.
First off, our server Miguel was incredible. He was extremely friendly, professional, and very attentive. Especially for a younger server, that level of service is honestly hard to find these days. Super polite, smart, and on top of everything.
The food was extremely fresh; you can taste it in everything, from the rice to the beans. Nothing tasted pre-made or old. Everything came out hot and full of flavor.
We also took advantage of happy hour (all day today!), and the margaritas were absolutely worth it. Definitely pay the extra couple of dollars for the top-shelf (not sure the exact name, but trust me) — they were outstanding and a huge step up.
Between the great service, fresh food, and solid drinks, this place is now officially on our regular rotation. Highly recommend checking it out if you’re in the area.

Had a great experience here! The fajitas were flavorful and perfectly cooked, and the chaparra sauce had amazing flavor. The grilled shrimp with garlic was incredible — definitely a must-try. The queso flameado was excellent, and you can really tell the flour and corn tortillas are homemade, which made everything even better.
We also loved that the top-shelf margaritas were included in happy hour — such a great deal. Huge shoutout to Miguel, our waiter — he was very attentive, and he even discounted our regular margaritas without us having to say anything when he noticed we weren’t totally satisfied. That level of service really stood out.
All of the staff were friendly and welcoming. We’ll definitely be back!
