El Tiempo Cantina- Gessner - Houston

We absolutely loved El Tiempo for our Tex-Mex cravings! We ordered a pound of their fajitas, which include chicken, beef, and pork, served with a mix of corn and flour tortillas. Their margaritas are excellent as well! The service was fantastic; the staff consistently checked on our table to see if we needed anything. The atmosphere was lively and enjoyable! We’ll definitely be back. As for parking, there’s a large parking lot with plenty of space around the restaurant.

This is my brother's favorite Mexican restaurant. We ordered for pickup and arrived five minutes early. However, we ended up waiting twenty minutes for our food, which is unusually slow. But the food was fantastic, and they had a special on Wednesday nights. We will definitely be returning!

This restaurant offers outstanding service, delectable food, and a well-crafted atmosphere. The decor is beautiful and transports you to Mexico. They begin the meal with an amazing green sauce and delicious chips. I wasn't particularly fond of the red sauce, but the green sauce is fantastic—perfectly creamy and bursting with flavor. The margaritas are excellent, especially considering they're a "house" option. We shared the beef fajitas, which came with a buttery dipping sauce that has a hint of lime. The tortillas are thin and just the right size for making great tacos. They offer both green rice and traditional yellow Mexican rice; I personally preferred the yellow. Our waiter was attentive, and the service was quick. I definitely plan to return! (The low lighting made it hard to capture the true presentation in photos, but everything was wonderful!)

Our go to Mexican in Westchase (Gesssner location) or anywhere we're near one of their locations. Amazing chips and salsa, fajitas, margaritas, and mixed plates. There's no wrong option here, but highly recommend the fajitas (any type) and the gold margaritas. Hats off to Julio, Jesus, Horatio, and Mario for service always above and beyond. A solid choice for Mexican food, don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Very good food and good service. The margaritas are a bit different along with the green rice. Our server said it was cilantro, but I know it's not. I think it's a spinach green they add to it. All in all its was great tasting Tex-mex food. It's a bit pricey, but it's good.Food: 5/5
