The Best Mexican Restaurants In Houston - The Infatuation

Considering the land comprising Texas once belonged to Mexico—y’all remember your eighth-grade Texas History, right?—it’s not surprising the entire state has some of the best Mexican food in the country. And Houston’s got a fine spread of nearly every flavor-packed regional cuisine Mexico has to offer. There are tart ceviche from the coast, Monterrey-style trompo, Mexico City-inspired bistros, heirloom masa, and just about every taco filling you can think of (and some you can’t). Here’s where you’ll find the best Mexican food in Houston.

Spring Branch

$$$$Perfect For:Casual DinnersLunch

Doña Lena in Spring Branch serves some of the best birria in town. The ultra-colorful strip center spot stuffs chile-stewed beef into tacos, quesadillas, gorditas, machetes, tostadas—with a little extra consomé on the side for dunking—and bowls of ramen. The consomé tastes so fantastic, you should  probably wear something you don’t mind getting stained, because you will want to devour  every ounce of savory broth with wild abandon.
