XALISKO

Houston’s Best Mexican Restaurants | Eater Houston

"Chef Beatriz Martines shares her journey of cooking and cuisine from her hometown in Jalisco, Mexico, with The Woodlands. Find dishes like refreshing ceviches, the saucy, fall-off-the-bone birria, and Martines’ signature trompito al pastor — a hunk of marinated, roasted pork, which is delivered to the table on a mini spit. End with something sweet, like the churros gordos stuffed with cajeta, or Xalisco’s fun spin on the tres leches, which is made with a cranberry compote and topped with a vanilla-cream cheese icing and orange zest." - Kayla Stewart
