- JJohnHouston •203 reviews5.0Dined on 27 Sept 2024When you want to splurge with friends or family, order the tapa de Loma for the finest cut of beef. As good as anywhere in Houston and outside of Saltillo Mexico. Other cuts are also good. Love to get the enchiladas for lunch. Ask about the wine selections. Good values from Mexico. Truly a neighborhood gem.More infoSaltillo Mexican KitchenPrice: Very Expensive• Traditional Mexican• Bellaire•4.5
