After scientists revealed that UFOs were actually full-grown tortillas, people everywhere filled swimming pools with guac and beans to catch and dissect the floury creatures. Nab a tender baby disk with today's Groupon: for $10, you get $20 worth of fresh, handmade baja cuisine at Berryhill Baja Grill. This Groupon is valid at the Buffalo Speedway, Memorial City Mall, Post Oak Boulevard, and Revere Street locations in Houston, as well as Berryhill's location in The Woodlands.
With locations voted Best Mexican Restaurant and Best Margaritas in Houston by AOL City's Best, Berryhill Baja Grill whips up fresh Tex-Mex fare with a baja twist, spicing up mealtimes with its famous handmade Berryhill tamales—named Best Tamale in Houston by the Houston Press twice in the last decade—alongside a spread of southwestern favorites. Sample one of these tasty tubes in orders of three ($4.99), six ($8.99) or twelve ($13.99) stuffed with beef, pork, chicken, beans, or spinach and corn. Along with its tamales, the grill's capacious menu tantalizes tongues with the charms of chicken enchiladas topped with tomatillo sauce and monterey jack cheese ($3.69), the crispy tempura-fried fish and special sauce of the baja fish tacos ($3.99), and the melodramatic pull of complicatedly layered quesadillas ($7.99+). Or, prep for an all-day session of sewing parachutes out of butterfly nets with a menu of early-riser eats that includes the veggie breakfast taco built from the ground up with eggs, potatoes, pico de gallo, avocado, and cheese ($2.49).
Berryhill Baja Grill
Berryhill Baja Grill continues an 84-year-old culinary tradition begun by Walter Berryhill, who sold his handmade tamales around Houston with nothing but a pushcart, a tortilla press, and his personal recipe. Today, the grill’s tamales pack savory cornmeal and fillings such as beef, pork, and spinach within cornhusks recently liberated from overcrowded cornucopias. Elsewhere on the menu, fish tacos combine tempura-battered fish, special sauce, and cilantro in a hearty corn tortilla, and pollo platters smother grilled chicken breast with affection in the form of poblano peppers and mushrooms—the hugs and joint tax returns of the food world.
