If Houston was a food, there’s no doubt that it would be a taco. It’s no surprise that we have so many amazing Mexican restaurants to choose from, specializing in everything from Tex-Mex to Oaxacan seafood—after all, the city’s population is 45 percent Hispanic.
So that leaves only one question: which spots are the best of the best for tacos? Lucky for you, we took it upon ourselves to do a little research (more like a whole lot of eating) to find the ones worth driving to. Here are our top 25 places to eat tacos in Houston.
Spring Branch
Owner Angel Cabrera, whose parents are from Guanajuato, has transformed this small Spring Branch spot into a popular sensation that gained a spot on Yelp’s Top 100. Tacos Doña Lena specializes in birria tacos and quesabirria, which we love to drizzle with the restaurant’s excellent housemade salsas. Cabrera is working to bring a second location to the Lazybrook/Timbergrove neighborhood near the Heights with even more menu items (and a bar with margaritas).
