"This Mexican fast food counter, located inside a Clear Lake-area Chevron gas station, is popular for its Space City-themed menu and famed Lean sauce, which adds a pop of bright purple color to most dishes. The Top Drops specials feature items like Spliff tacos, elote, and carne asada fries, and guests are given the option to have their tacos and burritos made keto-friendly." - Megha McSwain

Came in for some Htown Food and fell in love with Lean Sauce. Grab you a bottle while you there throw that sauce on everything. Burritos are good too. To be honest there has not been anything on the menu we didn’t like. Everything is Fire

Oh myyy god! I tried a bit of everything and I’m OBSESSED! The spliff tacos are 🔥🔥🔥 I love how they use chicken. They were so crunchy the lean sauce was so delicious in everything. The shrimp tacos were surprisingly good and the shrimps were big and juicy. The carne asada and pastor were seasoned perfectly. Everything was fresh. The staff were so friendly. I cannot wait to go back! Please open a location in LA 😭

I had chicken and pastor tacos. Both were delicious. The chicken is shredded, and that's my favorite on a taco. The pastor had so much flavor. I also got chips and salsa and by far the best green salsa I've had. The elote was good, but a little too salty, or maybe too much lime. The guy working was super nice and helpful

Tacos were awesome, great flavor for all the pastor was our favorite! Lean sauce was supposed to be the star of the show, it was outstanding and the color made it stand out (purple). Don’t know how we never tried it but it’s a great find and affordable too

I love Gordo Ninos!!!! I would be sooooo big if they were close. I use to drive from Spring to NASA for my lean sauce! All the workers are nice! Don’t miss out on the lean sauce. I now live closer so here almost once a week. My kids love it too!

Food was mid at best did not live up to the hype , great service though but its in a gas station so cant expect a hype atmosphere. The lean sauce does not belong in the corn cup it made it sour and could not eat it. Its kinda expensive for what u get im my opinion.
