"Could not have been better! We visited on the evening of National Margarita Day; the place was packed; and still: we were seated without hardly any wait! Still, the service was stellar! There were tables with many children, and even they were on their best behavior- or if they weren’t, we couldn’t tell. I observed Staff members actually cleaning and clearing ongoing, as they seamlessly and perfectly went about their duties! The food was great! All the drinks of the day were perfect! The fun, eclectic decor was executed to perfection! As one who eats out often, and who can recount awful experiences at many of Houston’s pitiful middle market “restaurants”- I can honestly vouch for this place as actually having succeeded in all areas that our party had hoped for. Personally, I am not overly a fan of Mexican food, but here… they did great!"

"Had a wonderful lunch with my wife. Chips and salsas were amazing. Avocado tacos were pretty good. (I’m normally a beef fajita eater) The pyramid of rice was a nice surprise!"

"The rare 5 star makes an appearance. Ive been coming here on and off for years. It's not convenient for me but man will I continue to drive out of my way to eat here. It's a chain. Let's get that out of the way. But it feels like a little local place. Friendly people. Nice patio. Big parking lot. But most importantly great food. Had the ribeye tacos and they were the perfect portion size. Maybe a little bit since I'm a glutton and ate my weight chips and their green sauce. Their red sauce is cold, which is my favorite. Tons of flavor. The tacos had amazing rice and beans. The true metric for a good Mexican restaurant. Was in bit of a rush and they accommodated me and got me on my way. Delicious food. Good service. Damn you, I'll be back."

"This place is ok. Honestly, I think this experience may be isolated. They were not busy but seemed extremely rushed and definitely treated the customers as such. The waiter would speak to us in passing, never truly checking on us and brought the check without asking if we wanted anything different or more. It was a weird experience. Overall, the atmosphere was cute and quaint. I enjoyed being able to watch the tortillas being made fresh. Food was hot, evenly seasoned and delicious. The only thing needing work is the service."

"This was my first time visiting this place. I thought this was one of those places where food was tasteless and cheap. I was wrong. Their food is fresh and delicious. Our waitress was superb! And the ambiance is another level. Their concept is a Mexican (Tex-Mex) restaurant, but they paid attention to the details and did a great job of not appropriating or insulting the Mexican culture. I ordered the Pollo Marisco ($17.99), and it was delicious. I must say this: I regret ordering this plate because it had a LOT!! Grease and cheese. That makes it delicious, but I left thinking about the calories, etc. Again, it is delicious. Great dish presentation and handmade tortillas! I definitely would return to JC and recommend it to friends."
