★★★★☆ 4.0 Michael Martinez · Jun 2025

The chilaquiles and menudo were delicious. The service was excellent, and the waiter was pleasant and friendly. The atmosphere could use some improvement or updating. Overall, I was satisfied with the experience.

Today we had breakfast at Taqueria El Nortenito, and like always they exceeded our expectations once again. They serve authentic Mexican food with a delicious homemade flavor that’s hard to find nowadays. Every dish I tried its absolutely delicious, carefully prepared, and full of that “just like home” touch. The service was exceptional—attentive, friendly, and welcoming—and the restaurant itself it’s always clean, creating a comfortable and pleasant dining atmosphere. The owners are always there making sure you have a great experience while eating and they take great pride in both their food and their customer service. If you’re looking for a place that serves genuine, high-quality Mexican food with a home made flavor, Taqueria El Nortenito is the perfect spot. Whether you’re stopping by

Don’t go on Sundays it’s super busy food was Hot but incorrect. I ordered over the phone and still got a runny yolk!!! And I had to pay EXTRA TO SUB POTATOES FOR BEANS which is fine but don’t LIE and tell me it’s not an extra charge. I love this restaurant but I’ll continue to order via DoorDash the order is at least correct when I do

We typically drive to the Northside of town for Mexican food because let's be honest, Jersey Village, Cypress area lacks authentic Mexican food. There are plenty of tex-mex options, but not real Mexican dishes. We wanted to explore our options nearby and this place has decent reviews. The restaurant is in a small shopping center so the parking is limited. I would say it's a hole in the wall. We stopped by on Monday, around noonish. The place was actually packed, only 2 booths open, so I felt that was a good sign. We sat down and the seats were pretty beaten. Torn and sunken. Immediately we were greeted and the waitress took our drink order. A few minutes later, we were given chips and salsa. Nothing spectacular. We tend to judge a restaurant by how good the chips and salsa are, so far, we
