Taqueria LOS Petates

Breakfast ¹⁄₁₇. The service was terrible, only one other couple in when we came in. Ordered coffee and it was cold, not warm cold. instead of bring fresh coffee they stuck it on the microwave to warm it up.
Food wa medium not that great and it was not serve hot, just warm. Don’t know why I gave 2 stars

Not on yahoo maps or GPS. Look for the Firestone on 45 service road. Really delicious food and great service. I had the tacos carbon which were marinated beef with a fresh jalapeño, tomato, and avocado salad and fresh corn tortillas. Would also suggest the tacos de trombo (served with bowls of cilantro, onion, and lime). $ 4 margaritas rounded out a satisfying meal. Much better than a chain option, so look beyond the simple exterior.

This little hole in the wall is some of the best Mexican (not Tex-​Mex) food you can get around here. The beans are delicious, but dont expect refrieds. They have spicy and smokey bacon… Mmmmm. You might have a little trouble communicating with staff if you don’t speak any Spanish, but it’s worth playing charades for the good food.

One of the best authentic Mexican restaurants in the Houston area. Luckily I live in the area and we don’t have to travel 30 minutes to find another place like this. This is NOT Tex-​Mex, it is authentic Mexican and it’s the real deal!!! Service was excellent and food was served super fast.

I love this little place! It’s next to the Firestone on I45 in The Woodlands. The salsa is wonderful and has a great depth of flavor. In addition the green and red sauces served tableside with your entrée are outstanding. While offering completely different flavor profiles (green has a bit of heat and red is extraordinarily deep flavored), adding a combination of the two to the tacos mixtos provides a sensory delight. I am generally here at least once a week. The family run place has an outstanding cook and I’ve never been disappointed with the food. In addition, the flan is hands down the best I’ve ever had. This place should be packed everyday. Do yourself a favor and skip the typical chains/​TexMex places near The Woodlands mall and make the trip to this little hideaway. You will enjoy some of the best cheap eats The Woodlands has to offer.

Being a little girl who had lived in a place for her whole life and then had to move to a way different country, I found a million hard things, but the hardest one was definitely getting used to the food. I’ve lived in California and now I live in Texas and from all the places I’ve tried, I gotta say this is one of the very few who serves authentic delicious food. I can’t even express my love for those nachos, and the service, besides bilingual is nice and it makes you feel at home. They also have pretty much any match from the Mexican soccer league, but that’s just a plus. Haha.

I really like this place. I’ve been there twice this week! Really good tacos and looking forward to trying other stuff on the menu.
