Never Coming Back
by hippiechick44 at Citysearch
Me and my fiance came into to eat (we ate at Gringos frequently) ordered our food, ate it, got our check and left. We made it a little way down the road when he realized he forgot his cell phone on the table. He calls it using mine and it rings a few times. The 3rd time it goes straight to voice mail (someone turned it off). We get there, go inside, and we are immediately approached by a waiter (not our own waiter but one that had walked by our table a few times) and he asked "whats up?" when nothing was mentioned to him or anyone else yet about coming back for our phone. It all seemed a bit suspicious. Needless to say my fiance never got his phone back and I never received a call on mine in reguards to it. The manager did not seem to care and didn't offer anything to make the situation better for us. We go to other Gringos but we totally boycott this particular location. If you go please keep your valuables within sight.
- Pros: consistent good food
- Cons: theivery/service

Good Tex-Mex food for a chain restaurant
by happydachsies at Citysearch
If you go to other chain restaurants for Tex-Mex, I would say that this is the best out of all of them. The fajitas meat is juicy and lean - no fat and very tasty and moist. Their Silver Star margarita is excellent - they don't skimp on the tequila here! The chips are not greasy (tastes almost like bake) but it's very nice. We love to go to this place when we have cravings for Tex-Mex.
- Pros: Good food, drinks, and service
- Cons: Long waits but it's expected

Best Tex-Mex around!!
by dining4u at Citysearch
Excellent food! My very favorite is the Pollo Marisco, no other TexMex can compare. The "Cobb" salad would be my next favorite. I have never had bad service at the one in Pearland or any of the other's. There is sometimes a waiting list, but I won't wait more than 30 min. anywhere and I never had to wait more than that at Gringo's.
- Pros: Great Food!
- Cons: Atmosphere a little cheesy!
