Tex-Mex restaurant · Briar Meadow

"This time-honored restaurant, which dates back to the early 1940s, continues to be one of the best bets for Tex-Mex in Houston. The menu is vast, and the prices are hard to beat. Start off with a bowl of chicken tortilla soup or a platter of taquitos — both under $10 — and then finish strong with one of the Tex-Mex platters. A staple menu item since the restaurant’s very beginning, the Mexico City dinner is a filling platter featuring a beef taco, a cheese enchilada, a bean tostada, and a tamale, served with guacamole, chili con queso, rice and beans." - Brittany Britto Garley
