My first time there. We went on a Saturday night. Plenty of people there, but no wait. Service was good, food was excellent. Price were comparable. I'll definitely return.
“A great place with Tex-Mex flavor, I was surprised by the shirt—it really had a strong Mexican identity. The place is very pleasant, and the menu has a wide variety of options. A very nice touch is that you can grab an ice cream cone before you leave. Go check it out—great spot!”
Our waitress Bailey ( Conroe location) went up over and beyond, she gave us tons of choices, witty and funny! She brought extra sauces for us to try and was very knowledgeable about the recipes and was very aware of my dietary needs and delivered! If you go in ask for her!
It’s a great spot to just chill. Food is good not too pricey. Great staff and take care of you! My server was Caitlyn. She was amazing made sure my order was right, checked in frequently and made sure cup was filled and nothing was needed. Definitely will come only because the server and the service that was provided! Got to be on my iPad and not feel rushed so definitely definitely recommend this spot to anyone in the area! Free ice cream too can’t beat that!!
Super nice place and it’s very decorated. I would say it’s nice for fancy dining but we came here pretty casually. The service is reallyyyyyy nice. The food is pretty okay I mean nothing to complain about. The drinks are VERY good. The music is also very enjoyable!!
The Woodlands location is the flagship. Best of the best out of all Gringo's from the friendly staff to the wonderful food. The experience is top priority here.
