Newly opened Casa Granda on 1604 at Stone Oak is muy bueno. Not Tex-mex. More like Mexico City-Mex

Tazion · 03-06-2011, 04:12 PM

Casa Grande has been getting good comments, but I haven't been there myself.

Guajillo's on Blanco @ 410, Rosarios, El Mirador, Acenar - and then a ton of little hole in the wall places. I wouldn't go to, or suggest Mi Tierra, Los Barrios, La Fogata, or several other "famous" places, the food isn't good IMHO.

It also depends on what kind of "Mexican" you're looking for.

Hardly go there anymore, but Brown's Mexican Food on S. Hackberry is delish! Lots of professionals from downtown eat there for lunch.

Newer place - turn right off 281 North @ Evans and drive just past Arby's. It is in little plaza on the left.

Dennis that is a great place,not much to look at, but very authentic food. Next to Subway, down side no beer avaliable, they close @ 8:00 pm. Run by a young couple. If you're looking for Tex-Mex, not the place.
