looks like just another tex-mex, but it's great!

We decided to check this place out on a reccommendation, and it looked pretty generic, like a lot of mexican places we've been to in Houston. It was full on friday at 7:30, but not crowded, so we had no wait getting a table for 2, but we did have a problem finding parking, which is unusual in Katy. Due to a mixup with the servers, we had quite a wait in placing our orders, but once done, service was quick, friendly, and familiar. We loved (LOVED) the chips and salsas they brought out, fresh from the oven we could see on the patio, and that really set the tone. Margaritas were OK (skip the strawberry rita), and well priced. The fresh guacamole was absolutely delicious, and a small was plenty for two. When we first ordered, I asked about the tamales since I love them, and our server advised us not to try them, as they weren't anything special. When our orders came out I was slightly disappointed because it all looked so generic, but I was in for a surprise. The chicken had great flavors, the tortillas were amazing, the stuffed avocado was crisp, and the mexican rice was fresh. It even tasted great the next day after being microwaved. Fantastic place, we'll definitely be back.
- Pros: great food, nice patios, friendly service, good pricing
- Cons: not enough parking on busy days

Great Mexican Food
by gabbyso at Citysearch
Found this place on Citysearch and decided to call in a to go order last night to take home to the family. The food was awesome and the prices reasonable. They also gave us a free order of queso which we later learned is standard for all to go orders. Looking forward to having Vida Loca cater a party we're hosting next month. The food is outstanding!
- Pros: Excellent food

Fur Sure the best in Katy and probably the best in the NW Houston Area

We have been regulars at Vida Loca for about a year. The service is the best we've found so far. We have not been disappointed at any time with the food. We have recommended Vida Loca to our friends and relatives for a good evening out.The entertainment is first class in our view. LUV2ALL stan & Minnie
- Pros: The best Mexican Restaraunt in Katy
- Cons: NONE
