El Beso Cantina, Houston

Gave it a try and tried to support this new restaurant that took over the iconic 59-Diner. Overpriced for little food. $38 for 1 pound of fajitas...which appeared to be less than 1/2 pound unless they are weighing the onions too. Supposed to be enough for 2 but only comes with 3 tortillas! So if both of you want a 2nd tortilla, you'd have to order extra tortillas at $2. Is this intentional? or bad oversight? Very sad. You're better off going to Pappasito's or somewhere else for better tasting fajitas and something resembling a pound! You'd be more satisfied. Their "Texas Size Burrito" falls short of the name. Berryhill's burritos are better and truly Texas size. I guess they were too humble to call it that. Food was OK...nothing extraordinary or memorable that I must return. Slow service. Decor of the place could use more attention. We sat in the back and you will notice a faux brick wall has a noticeable gap between the back wall and the brick wallpaper...very distracting. Someone was in a hurry and not paying attention; very distracting and adds to the downgrades of the decor. Was hoping for a positive experience to share but regretfully not so. Sorry, won't return...too many other great Tex-Mex places around. Owner: if you want to improve, check out your competition and at least try to deliver the same level of value, ambiance, and service. There currently is an imbalance of many things...find it and tweak. Restaurant business is tough. Wish you success.

Food was fresh and made from scratch. Will definitely come back. Good food and salsa has a kick.

Server was good. Chips & Salsa were good. Portions were tiny. We left hungry. What's a Mexican Restaurant with out Tamales? THEY WON'T LAST ON THE HOUSTON MARKET, UNLESS THEY MAKE CHANGES.
