Had time before my wife’s doctor appointment so we stopped here. My wife can not handle ANY spicy food. She had the rotisserie chicken bowl. Both the avocado crema and corn salsa had jalapeños it it. Too spicy. They were gracious and gave her some sour cream to lower the burn. She loved the taste, just not the heat. I had a steak taco and the fish and chips taco. My side was elote. Everything was wonderful! Definitely going back to try more interesting tacos for sure! Fountain drinks are Coke products. I took one star off atmosphere because my wife didn’t find the chairs comfortable.

Decided to give Velvet Taco a try! Very nice place and great food!
They offer a Taco Combo were you can choose 2 tacos of your choice — I got the Fish N’ Chips Taco and the Spicy Tikka Chicken Taco. It also comes with a drink + chips and queso.
They make everything from scratch.
The Spicy Tikka Chicken Taco will blow your mind. The flavors are insanely good and has a power kick! I will be back for sure!
They are also known for the made from scratch red velvet cake. I will try that next time. ❤️

So delicious!!! Went there specifically to burn through my gift cards and Morghanne (the server) helped me through it. I would say this place is better than Chipotle , bigger portions too. Definitely recommend!!!

Ordered the combo that comes with 2 tacos, a side, and a drink. Delicious as usual. I tried the Burger Taco best burger I’ve had in a while. Crazy cause it’s a taco. Also had the buffalo chicken taco. Great as well. Had to finish things off with a piece of red velvet cake. Chef’s Kiss

Great place for a quick lunch with tasty tacos. I went in for lunch, and the Service went fast. Got my order in a hast, sat outside, and enjoyed the fully enriched flavor of the tacos I ordered.

Cool vibe entering the place. Menu is decent sized.service was nothing special but decent. For 2 combos we paid $35 including a small tip considering its counter service. We got quesa birria and brisket. They were mid. Brisket had little meat and tasted mostly the tomato and avocado. Birria is not supposed to be pork! It was okay but a little too greasy.i liked the queso with chimichurri and the elote side. I will be back to try the bowls which are tempting.

Unfortunately, I have to revise the review that I left below from a few months ago. Love most of what I experience here, but recently noticed that my favorite taco, the buffalo chicken, they’re using really fatty chicken pieces, which is just terrible. I made a point of letting the manager know and she apologized and said she would advise the kitchen team to be sure that they are trimming the fat off of the chicken during prep, but I’m still getting fatty pieces. Just disgusting, chewy, and inedible. Sorry guys, I tried to do this through the store, but if you’re not going to take it serious when I ask at the store, I’m going to post it so others don’t waste their hard earned money on bad quality food. I’m happy to revise this if the quality changes. No, I don’t want a coupon or a free meal, just want quality food.
Just moved to The Woodlands from SoCal and absolutely impressed with Velvet Taco. Presentation, but more importantly the taste and quality were amazing. Can’t say enough good things about it. We’ll be back there for sure.

I have not eaten anything from this VT location, but I would like to review and comment on their “customer service”. I deliver food as a side gig and I usually enjoy doing it as I ride my motorcycle to make the deliveries. Yesterday, 10/12/25 somewhere around 5 pm or so, I was notified to go to this particular VT for a pick up. Upon arrival, I was not greeted as a customer, and really not greeted at all. I announced I had a pick up for customer “X”. I was looked down upon by the female at the counter. She begrudgingly went to the online order shelves and looked for my delivery order. She turned and kind of threw it on the counter and then turned to grab the two Coca-Cola cans that went with the order. I asked her pleasantly, even if she wasn’t being courteous, “May I have a separate bag for the sodas?”. I was given a look of utter shock and disdain. “Just put them in with the food!” was her reply. (If this was the operating procedure of this restaurant, why then we’re they not already in the bag?!? Could it be because the soda cans would either warm up or they would make the food cold?!?) I asked nicely for a bag again. I even mentioned that I deliver on a motorcycle and I’d like to keep the soda separate from the food. I was given an exasperated reply of, “Don’t you have your own bags???”, I replied, “Actually I have an insulated box on the back of my bike with two different compartments for hot and cold food.”. She then rolled her eyes and said, “Well, “I don’t like giving these bags away. They are very expensive. I can’t just give one to you because you want one out of convenience.” I’m sure my eyes gave away my utter shock at her reply, to which she said, “OK, I’ll do it this one time.” I don’t know what this was all about but I can say that as a consumer who eats out frequently, I will NEVER eat at this VT location and I will make it a point that my many family and friends in the area NEVER eat here either! I’m sure I’ll be back to this location on other deliveries but I’ll be sure to mention this act of “kindness” by this employee if one of my customers wonder why there soda cans are warm or the food is cold because of everything being thrown into one bag… Thank you female at the counter yesterday!!

Velvet taco never disappoints! The service is always super friendly and they get it right every time. My favorites are the Spicy Tikka Chicken and Mexi-Cali Shrimp, but you honestly can’t go wrong with any of them.

It’s always a great idea to have dinner at Velvet Taco. Their menu is always expanding and there’s always something new to try. Their Queso Blanco is an absolute must when you go and you can’t go wrong with either their margarita or house made Paloma! We had a variety of tacos from Korean styled pork to spicy Indian Tikka chicken, and of course nice beef steak tacos with all the garnishes. The restaurant is clean and air conditioned and the atmosphere is very laid back. If you want to have some tacos that hit every time then Velvet is the right call!
