We just moved to Houston and our great friend Johnathan recommended this as “The Best Mexican Restaurant in Houston!” We came on a Sat at lunch and were not disappointed! I have lived all over the US and this indeed has become one of my top 3 picks. The service was exceptional and the food was phenomenal. They have a small play area off the enclosed patio seating. The decorations were spot on as we came the day after Halloween. Positively a 5 star experience!

Original Lupe Tortilla.
Service and atmosphere:
We really like this location for its charm and cozy environment. The restaurant is Nicky decorated and organised. It has homely feel about it. There are plenty of seating areas both inside and outside.
The service was good.
Food and drinks:
Extensive selection of food menu items. You can find many familiar Mexican dishes here.
– I ordered chicken Juanita. Unfortunately, the chicken was super overcooked and very dry. I had to use salsa that was served with chips to moisten the meat.
– Mexican pizza is simply crispy tortilla with meat and cheese melted on top. Would choose something different next time.
We have not ordered alcoholic beverages but they have good selection of them.
Pricing:
$$ regular for most items. Some seafood or steak dishes go over $30.
P.S. this is my favourite location for the atmosphere (4 stars) but prefer food quality from other Lupe Tortilla restaurants. 3 stars for food at this location.

Lupe Tortilla is one of my favorite Tex-Mex restaurants to eat at. I stopped in tonight to get my favorite (Chicken Quesadillas). I really love great customer service, and I receive that every time I stop by. Management, and employees are amazing, and everyone is so polite.
I visit this location a lot, and I wanted to make sure that I left a great review.
I have attached a photo of my dinner from tonight.
Thank you again, management and crew. You guys rock. ❤️❤️

I’ve always enjoyed this restaurant the food is consistently good, the service is strong, and the bartenders are excellent. We usually sit at the bar and it’s typically a great experience.
Unfortunately, today completely changed that.
A female manager approached the bar to publicly reprimand my friend over something he allegedly said weeks ago. I won’t defend whatever happened before he apologized but the way she handled it was unprofessional and dripping with ego. If she had an issue, she could have addressed it privately. Instead, she chose to make a scene in front of other guests, clearly more interested in asserting authority than resolving anything.
Threatening to ban a customer and policing his drinks as if she’s the final arbiter of morality was unnecessary and performative. It felt less about standards and more about self-importance.
I go out to enjoy a meal and good company not to sit through a manager’s public power display. That experience alone is enough to make me think twice about returning.

Lupe Tortilla delivers a consistently satisfying dining experience that highlights classic Mexican flavors with precision and care. The guacamole stands out with its fresh, vibrant taste, perfectly balanced and made to order. Their beans complement the meal beautifully, rich and flavorful without being overpowering. The mixed fajitas are a true highlight—cooked to perfection with tender, well-seasoned meats and a delightful medley of peppers and onions. Additionally, the queso is excellent, creamy and flavorful, making it a perfect starter or accompaniment. Overall, Lupe Tortilla offers a well-rounded menu that showcases authentic Tex-Mex cuisine at its best.

We must have caught them on a bad day. This is the one off of Hwy 6 and I10. Service was bad, the food was bad. We couldn’t wait to leave. My wife got the nachos. She wanted the guacamole on the side and it came on the nachos. It was an act of Congress getting that changed out. I had the fajitas and they were as dry as could be. We will not be going back.

I ordered fajitas for takeout and the prices did not match the website. The food portion was very underwhelming. The taste was good, but I would not recommend the fajitas if you have an appetite. Also, they don’t pack any sauce in the to-go bags.

Took a date on a Saturday night and it was a very enjoyable experience. It was busy, we waited about 20 minutes but we were able to get a spot at the bar and get a drink and there was plenty of outside area so we just enjoyed the evening outside until the table was ready. Got a nice little spot along the wall, had nice lighting and a nice ambience for a date. The star of the show in the food department was the salsa and beans they served. The salsa was chunky and flavorable and the beans were outstanding. Had chicken fajitas and margaritas and everything was great. Service was a little slow, but it was busy, and our server was attentive and everything was on point. Would definitely recommend Lupe Tortillas and I will be back.

I have been a LONG time customer of Lupe – my favorite location was off of the tollway – closer to 1960 and you can se airplanes take off overhead from bush airport as you dine – i found out my coworker was best friends with the manager – precovid –
I am in the memorial city area and I like this location a lot – never any issues – love to take my family when they are in town
i wont be back
after inviting 10 friends to the restaurant we dispersed to our vehicles , my mother was approached by security, my 70 year old mother and the armed security with visible firearm said they had a couple of “questions” for her
my mother did not take to that kindly – as she was just waiting for her grandson at his car
security apparently called the manager and instead of apologizing to my mother she basically excused him “well hes security”
maam if your security thinks a 70 year old woman is a threat – lol – please
i highly recommend the spot by the airport i mentioned love love love
disappointed by what they call a half order of fajita – the size of the palm of my hand as a short girl – dont remember them being that small but it is what it is
its a shame – my mom didnt want me to leave this review – Be careful in the parking lot where security seems to lack good judgement and discernment and be carrying a firearm.
The food was good – not sure on portion size for fajitas
the play area was ok
the servers were very kind
safety could be an issue

Honestly the food has fallen off a good bit. The fajitas are still your best bet for quality. Everything else in my past few visits has become subpar. Honestly they are starting to play it safe with the seasoning on most dishes. The fajitas are still pretty good. Nice char on everything but honestly starting to lack quality on some of the sides. And they’re refined. Beans have become watery. The Chara beans have started to lack season even though I requested guacamole and no avocados anywhere near my plate, they still came with avocado on my dish along with the pinko de gallo and cheese. I asked for sour cream instead. Nowhere in sight even after I had to send the sides back with no guacamole because of my allergy. It’s not a taste thing because I would not have sent it back. The sour cream was missing upon return once again. So I proceeded with my meal because I’m not going to send something back twice no matter the mistake. For Taco Tuesday a bit loud even to be what was expected. I don’t have a problem when going in into a space and expecting the volume. It’s the rowdy guest and physical movement of guest and knocking over of items from guest tables But it was a bit much and enough to mention. I know better than to sit near the bar, but I’m guessing this whole place is the bar now. I always make a stop here for every once in awhile. I try to make and move across the menu inside of a few visits per year. And this year 2025 all I have to say is the fajitas while pretty good There are other places you can go. Sadly I am not sure Lupe tortilla is worth a taste anymore. We will see
