“ Always great food when I come here! Ambiance is amazing, love coming here with family and friends. ”
“ Food was absolutely amazing!!! We drive over 30 miles just to order to go from this place!!! ”
“ Okay I go here often and usually stick to my order but I decided to try their volcanes on Friday and it was so good. Even if you don't love tripas, I highly recommend trying theirs extra crispy. It's the best version imo. ”
“ Pretty good... seasoned well and portions are huge! The service was good and I will be back for round two ”
“ I got invited to try El Trompo Loco, and after hearing great things, I was excited to finally check it out! The menu is packed with intriguing options, and we decided to go for the Parrillada Mixta for two. This massive dish includes beef and chicken fajitas, shrimp, grilled sausage, and skewers, all served with rice, guac, beans, and tortillas. Let me tell you, this plate was incredible. It featured a layer of grilled onions beneath the meat, soaking up all those delicious juices. It was absolutely amazing! I also ordered a large horchata, and I have no regrets--it was fantastic. I'll definitely be coming back! ”
“ Service was prompt and courteous, the odd thing was that we asked for a small glass of water for our 8 month old and the my said we don't have water we only have water bottles, so like they make money off of every little thing. That was a bit weird but I guess it is what it is. The place is nice, clean and well organized, the food is definitely a 5 I had the pozole, my wife had the baked potato with bistec it was a lot... she saved it for lunch next day and was delicious. The pozole was good just wish they would cut up the radish in smaller pieces not big round slices. I think going a little extra on customer service would go a long way. ”
“ I'll spare an unnecessary long review and just say that the food tastes great, the portions are generous, and the price point can't be beaten. If you want some delicious Mexican food on the east side of Houston, this is a great option. ”
“ One of the best Mexican restaurants I've been to! My gripe is it's so far, which could be a good thing cause I'd be here a couple times a month. It used to be an old Sonic & they kept the drive ups as parking spots & decorate the exterior with beautiful murals representing Houston. You know a place is good if their chips & salsa is bomb. The GREEN SALSA packs some heat! I can handle some spice but that it had my mouth burning. The HORCHATA helped soothe the fire. Super cinnamony & sweet. I ordered the ORDEN DE TACOS (5) with 2 TROMPO & 3 BISTEC. The onions & cilantro comes on the side along with GRILLED ONIONS & a surprise potato chunk. The QUESABIRRIA TACOS (3) also outstanding. The consume was well seasoned & had all the fixing. The portions here are generous. We left full & had leftovers to enjoy the next day. The service was prompt & everyone was nice. When I asked for water they did bring a bottle so I'm not sure if they serve tap. I will make the trek across town to be back! ”
