Authentic Tacos That Transport You Straight to Mexico!
This taco shop is DELICIOUS! I had the lengua, tripa dorada, and barbacoa tacos, and each one was absolutely amazing—packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. The authenticity reminded me of being back in Mexico. The tripa was crispy just the way it should be, the lengua was tender and flavorful, and the barbacoa was rich and juicy. You can tell they put care into every detail. If you’re craving true Mexican street-style tacos, this is the spot. Their aguas frescas were the perfect complement. Highly recommended!

Today I decided to stop at taco La Bala
The beans were OK. They did offer prompt service
They were a little runny for me.
The rice was missing a little bit of personality and flavor.
The Barbacoa tacos were OK. I liked them. The meat was tender and it was flavorful and the place was packed so I guess people do like them.
I do also know that they have four different locations.

Feel they’re becoming more corporate style, the trampo is not as good as it use to be. One of the orders was a small quesadilla with trompo and I couldn’t see the chesse. Went to tell them and said it’s in there and we measure it. I easy opened the tortilla and asked where? Be better please.

SUPER LOW PRICES for great food. One of Houston’s best crazy cheap restaurants. The tacos were delicious and filling, and the menu was quite extensive. Staff was helpful and I cannot stress how cheap this place is, especially compared to the food quality.

The tacos are amazing! So far it’s been my favorite taco joint in Houston! 9/10 highly recommend the barbacoa and asada tacos.

Delicious flavors. I felt good bang for buck. The red and green salad were spicy and tasty. Some of the meat felt dry and overbooked. The al pastor (aka trompo) meat has a nice flavor profile.

Authentic Mexican food. Their food taste like when I’m in Mexico. It doesn’t take long for it to come out.
Update 3/6/2022 – Came here on a busy Sunday and the place was packed with super long lines and surprisingly the line went super fast and people left super quick. The place is well maintained by the cleaning crew because as soon as someone leaves there they are cleaning and picking plates up. The food is still amazing and delicious.

Taqueria La Bala is a hidden gem on Belair Boulevard that serves mouthwatering Mexican cuisine. The atmosphere is Mexican, staff not so friendly , and authentic flavors make it a must-visit spot. The tacos are a standout, with flavorful fillings and freshly made tortillas. The salsa adds an extra kick to the meal. The service is attentive, and the prices are reasonable. For an authentic Mexican dining experience, Taqueria La Bala is the place to go! If you’re in the southwest

Authentic Mexican food straight from the mother land. The tacos here are delicious, the tortas are to die for and the menudo is great on a Sunday. Expect this spot to always be busy, the prices are very reasonable and the atmosphere is fantastic. Never had a bad meal here and I’m picky as my wife is Mexican!

Possibly the best tacos in Houston. The first time I went I had the Barbacoa and cochinita tacos and I had to go back so the second time I had chorizo and egg/ Bacon and egg breakfast tacos. Fantastic. One of my favorite spots.
