The 17 Best Mexican Restaurants in Houston - Houston - The Infatuation

"For all the times you’ve desperately craved, like, 10 different kinds of ceviche, there’s La Cruderia, a mariscos and michelada spot in Bellaire. We appreciate the sheer number of ceviche options here, like the vegetal Ceviche Nayarita with lime-cooked white fish, carrots, and green tomato. Or the mouth-searing Ceviche Yucateco loaded with habanero. Throw in a cochinita torta or a few quesabirria tacos to balance the acid. Add on a La Golosa michelada, comically topped with beef jerky, shrimp, and spicy peanuts, and you’re set. Go here with friends to split a bunch of small plates for dinner, or grab an early dinner and skip the evening traffic. Stay long enough (and drink enough michis), and you can almost feel the sand between your toes." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
