In Short – With close to a dozen locations spread throughout Houston and surrounding areas, the devoted regulars at Los Cucos depend on flavorful menu selections and tasty margaritas. With more options than other Tex-Mex restaurants, appetizers include hearty nachos, queso fundido, tortilla soup and chicken or shrimp-stuffed jalapenos. In addition to tacos, tamales, enchiladas, burritos and fajitas, diners can sample healthy platters of mixed grilled items, seafood and stuffed avocados from the multi-page menu. Children's dishes available.
I just dont understand the popularity of the chain!

There are so many really good Mexian restaurants in Houston to choose from, so I just ont understand the popularity and success of this Restaurant.
Most of the dishes have a creamy sauce on the meat, the chips aren't very good, typically the service is slow and wow the emals are very heavy.
The salsa on the table is very good! Try Lupe Tortillas, Irma's, El Tiempo, Pappasitos and many other alternatives.
- Pros: Many locations to choose from
- Cons: Slow service, all meats are covered in sauce
Grade F Beef
by ObjCritic
I ordered some Beef Fajitas and I couldn't finish them as it was like chewing leather, and then with all of the fat in the fajita meat I had to stop chewing it and put it into napkins. The waiter and manager asked me how everything was and I told them and they just shrugged their shoulders. It took them forever to get my drink order and chips. I was basically almost done with my dinner, which I guess didn?t take me long since I didn?t each much of the leather and just at the beans, rice, and tortillas. Funny thing I was sitting at the bar, and people at tables had gotten their drinks and chips after me even thought they were seated much after I was. This was not the first time I have gotten bad service here, but after a year I figured it would have improved.
- Pros: Good chips and salsa
- Cons: Everything else was horriable!
Great Margaritas
by frank02
Altho it is located in a very upscale part of town Los Cucos has a nice relaxed feeling that makes you feel welcomed. The food is good and the Margaritas a great, I always say im only having one but end up having many many more. The restaurant could use some work tho, the wait staff is not the best and the floors are a bit dirty but it is a good restaurant overall.
- Pros: Margaritas are great
- Cons: wait staff and its not too clean outside
