This authentic Mexico City bistro is filled with fresh and delicious foods. The chilaquiles and the casero molletes are for sure a must try here! Read more
The best authentic food you have ever had, if your Grandmother grew up in Mexico City , this is what you would have had growing up. The house margarita is awesome. People here are fantastic.
Its contemporary aspect is seen not just in the decor and strong cocktail program, but in the fun interpretations of classic, real Mexican dishes . [Eater 38 Member] Read more
WOW!!!! What a fantastic little place to enjoy lunch with some co-workers. Very fresh and excellent service. The Mole Verde is absolutely to die for.
Inside track : Spare some time to savor the visual details, from the vivid enamel serveware, to the inventive napkin outlay, to the antic urban murals by Mexico City artist Cecilia Beaven. Read more
The huitlacoche quesadillas (which are closer to empanadas in appearance) are great!! The sauce that comes with it is spicy !!
Chiles en Nogada were on special and they were delicious. Tried chilaquiles another day in the morning and they were amazing. Micheladas were great!
The rose petal salad (ensalada con pétalos de rosa) is delicious!! Just the right amount of sweet!
Awsome mexican restaurant . The place is very nice with some awsome murals . Authentic mexican food of great quality. Drinks are awsome too.
Delicious cocktails , innovative appetizers , and surprising, complex food that is plenty "shocking" without being overwhelming. Presentation is just adorable...sad we couldn't keep the straw donkey!
Weekend brunch outstanding. Avoid valet, street parking is available during the day. Had the barbacoa : yummy! Drinks also great! Pretty space.
Chicken tostadas are amazing pretty spicy thou. Paloma cuchara margarita is so refreshing. Rose petal salad is unique and delish! Love this place.
Authentic mexican options, great drinks and awesome staff !!
I'm stoked about their happy hour menu and vegetarian additions to the menu :D
Authentic Mexican - excellent tequila selection & great atmosphere. My new go to place!
I love, love, love Cuchara! There isn't another restaurant in Houston that captures the authentic DF flavors as Cuchara does!!!
Try the quesadillas de huitlacoche, they are not like the popular quesadillas they sell , these are deep fried and real Mexican food !
White chilaquiles with a side order of carnitas is everything!!
Don’t expect to see your typical Tex-Mex quesadilla . Here it’s corn dough , filled with a cheese and huitlachoche (a black mushroom ) mixture, and then it’s fried. It’s a crispy , cheesy, savory pocket. Read more
Such a fun place to just hang out. The staff is friendly and the food is fantastic.
Loved the food, loved the drinks, and loved hosting #SheepShinDig there. Everyone should check this place out. We'll be back!

Amazing! Sit at the bar and enjoy one of their specialty drinks and yummy apps :)
The fried minnows are delish!
45 minute wait for a couple of small and underwhelming plates. No apology and at the end they included the tip on a bill for a party of only five. The place is a joke.
Great food. All fresh ingredients and very light and savory.
The empanadas are very flaky and yummy.
It's Mexican food gone avant-garde. The Green Mole is absolutely delicious.
i was told by the management “ rules are made by the owner, and if you dont like it, dont come back” they dont serve any tortillas with their $24 snapper .“rules are made by owner and dont come back
The best drink is the Bandido, try it!!!
Cucumber margarita and ceviche . Delicious!!
Great margaritas !
Awesome Cinco Leches cake !
You gotta try the picaditas!!
Maragritas are amazing by Corey
