- MmanuelVIPMexico City •5 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoI had the pleasure of dining at Ojo de Agua in the River Oaks District, and I must say, it's hands-down the best Mexican food I've ever had in Houston! The tacos were incredibly flavorful, with fresh, high-quality ingredients that truly shone through. But the real standout for me was the ceviche - it was absolute perfection. The combination of tender seafood, zesty lime juice, and subtle spices was truly unforgettable. The service was also top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff who made sure our every need was met. If you're a fan of Mexican cuisine, do yourself a favor and get to Ojo de Agua ASAP. You won't regret it!More infoOjo de AguaPrice: Moderate• Mexican• River Oaks•4.2

- 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•4.7
