Tortilleria Tlaxcali: Reviews & Ratings
Amazing experience here at 5am everything was fresh and ready to go, the line stacks up even this early. The food is delicious and the staff is friendly as heck.
These are the best tacos I have ever tasted in Houston Texas. I highly recommend stopping by and trying the chicken or steak tacos with rice and Mexican cheese. You will not be disappointed at all....
I came here one Saturday morning just to check out what Mexican breakfast food they had to offer. Long time Houstonians correct me if I'm wrong but I believe this used to be a KFC back in the day. Anyway, I pulled up and the parking lot isn't much to look at and was packed but I was able to squeeze into the only open spot. I could tell right away that this is a popular neighborhood spot. There was an older gentleman at the door holding it open for people entering. This place was bustin' at the seams inside from so many people. The ordering area is narrow and there are people standing on either side, some ordering food and others waiting. I didn't see a seating area. The way it works is you just get in line and then as you move along the line, order what you want and they will serve, package and hand it to you at the end of the line. The line moves fast as most people already knew what they wanted. It was my first time there, so I was taking my time. Don't be alarmed if people move right past you if you take too long to decide what you want. The servers are quick as well, so they keep it moving. The music is loud and upbeat, so it blends in perfectly with the atmosphere. I ordered a taco of Chicharrones Verdes, a pound of Barbacoa, a half dozen of tamales and some Chicharrones. They also make tortillas in house, so I ordered some as well. The food was delicious! The Chicharrones Verdes were tender and spicy with a savory taste. The barbacoa was tender and juicy and not too greasy. The tamales were good but I prefer them to be a bit more spicy. I probably wouldn't order them again. I would definitely order the Chicharron taco and Barbacoa again. The Chicharrones were crispy and juicy and tender at the same time. I would come back just for them. Overall, if you're looking for a fancy dining experience or somewhere to sit and enjoy the atmosphere, this probably isn't for you. If you are looking for delicious authentic food and quick service, then come here. You will not be disappointed.
Los tacos de desayuno están muy ricos y las tortillas son hechas de mano! Muy bueno, regresaré otra vez! Breakfast tacos are really good plus they have homemade tortillas! 10/10 definitely will be back again!
A group of coworkers and I went to have lunch here today. I have had their tacos before, but I was super excited to actually go in and choose. I had the Tripe, Barbacoa, and the Pork in the red sauce. I also ordered the stuffed jalapeno with bacon. Everything was fantastic! I'm obsessed with their green sauce. :D
Always good when I go there. I like the fresh tortillas. Nice selection and everything I have tried has been good. Take some fresh tortillas home with you.
Food is fresh , hot and tasty!! The ladies are sweet and very generous! I have taken food from here to my coworkers and they fall in love.
