I reside downtown and am thrilled about this addition to the post HTX building. Situated to the right of the 713 music hall, it offers convenient access and ample parking if needed. On Mondays, they offer $5 margaritas, and on Wednesdays, they provide half-price fajitas! I’ve become a regular here. The highlight of the menu is the incredibly affordable HH food items. It’s an ideal spot to enjoy a margarita before the show or a night out! Priscila, the lead bartender is the best! My friend

We went to this new location on Friday afternoon. The food was super delicious. The margaritas were amazing. Now I understand why they are number one in Houston. And the service, what can I say. Rene was incredible. His professionalism, charisma, and customer service made us have a very pleasant time. We will definitely be back. Thank you, El Tiempo, thank you Jorge and special thanks for his crew (the best). I have no doubt that this new adventure will be a complete success. See you soon, Rene.

Food was super delicious … but the atmosphere …it was just okay. It just felt dirty and not well kept so to speak. Other than that, all was well and Ruben was such a kind waiter.
