Best Value In Town

by ThinkLongTerm

I have been coming to 100% Taquito since it first opened at this location. It's my favorite restaurant. Try the Tinga Taco, named 2nd best taco in the state in Texas Monthly Magazine. Also, the Tres Leches is fantastic.

If you're in a hurry, it's a good place for pick-up orders.

• Pros: Food, Service, Price, Atmosphere
• Cons: I wish the Tres Leches was cheaper

Very dissapointed!!!, chicken breast old and re-heated many times!!!

by vgps

My husband and I went with some friends to 100% Taquito Saturday night after we had not been there years ago!, only to find out that the food has decreased in quality by 100%!!!

We ordered beef fajitas and chicken breast tacos, the portions were very small! (you get 3 miniature tacos for about $4.50 which they come out to be about the size of one regular taco!!!), I would not have mind paying that much if at least they were have been good like I remembered they were years ago, but the chicken breast was extremely old and dried, you could see and taste that it had been re heated several times thru out the day!, it was definitely not fresh at all!!!!!

All of us, (6 of us) agreed on the same thing! We tried leaving a comment in the comment box but they were not any to fill!!! The place is cute decorated but the food is not worth it at all!!! I would had enjoyed much better a burger from McDonalds!!! Don't go!, you will be dissapointed! I can promise!

• Cons: Old food!!! Chicken Breast old and re heated several times thru out the day!!!

100% Goodness

by htownbrown

I first ate at 100% Taquito back in 2001 (before they expanded it in 2003) and fell in love immediately. It has been in my eating rotation every since, where I eat there at least once a month or so. Great food and it ?hits the spot? every time!

I usually have to get the Banderillas (#85!) when go. They are so tasty!!! And if you are into sweets, the Tres Leches is absolutely amazing!!!

The first time I ever had a Michelada was here. Although a little odd at first, I now really enjoy drinking these concoctions. Thanks 100% Taquito for introducing me!

If you haven?t checked this place out, do it. But don?t expect ?Tex-Mex? food, since that?s not what this place is all about. You can, however, expect some delicious grub.

• Pros: great tasting food, parking
• Cons: can't think of any

Fantastic Tortilla Soup

by nixnix

I am, sadly, here several times a week. It's kind of embarassing. I'm OBSESSED with their tortilla soup, and have tried to recreate it at home with no luck.... so I keep coming back. I always get several soups and have a soup "day", and cheese and cilantro quesadillas....which are so, so, so good.

Everything I have tried here is excellent. The service is quick and the employees are very nice. I came here for the first time years ago when they first opened, and then moved out of Houston, and came back- and boy am I glad! For CHEAP but high QUALITY authentic mexican food- this is the place.

Some people complain that there is no queso- but folks, queso is tex-mex. It's not really good for us, anyways. It's set up like a mexican street corner food vendor, but it's CLEAN. It's also fun to watch children play and get excited about the Mexican Taxi parked in the middle. Great place!

• Pros: cheap, clean, fresh
• Cons: can't think of any- except it's busy around lunch time

The search is over

by texmexgirl

I've been looking around Houston for decent tacos al pastor, like the kind I used to get at my favorite taqueria in Mexico City when I spent a summer there. Like I had at an outdoor market in Merida. Like I had in Puerto Vallarta. My search ended at 100% Taquito. No greasy, shredded and stewed pork here. Just tasty, marinated bits of (grilled? rotisseried?) pork, with pineapple or without, dressed with cilantro and onions in a corn (gotta be CORN) tortilla. So simple, so tasty, and so cheap! Can't beat it.

GREAT FOOD!!!

by dsalazar00

My husband & I go at least once a week with our little one. The food, the service, & the atmosphere are great everytime! The Sopes are my favorite, along with the Rice. The Michiladas are the best in town!

• Pros: food, milchiladas, open until 11:00

Great for vegetarians!

by hetalbsheth

Excellent, fresh vegetarian Mexican available. Try the bean sopes--add the free pico de gallo and salsas and what a delicious meal for 3 bucks. I go there all the time. The corn with cheese and lime is wonderful too.

• Pros: cheap, fresh, tasty

Very good

by fcueto

I´m from Mexico City and have been to 100% Taquito twice. I wouldn´t call it "100% authentic", but it´s the closest I´ve seen here in Houston. Specially the "al Pastor" stuff, is not exactly the real Pastor. Order anything else and you´ll be very happy.

However, if you compare it to all those Tex-Mex places (which are more Tex than Mex), then 100% Taquito is a oasis.

• Pros: Great value, Quite authentic, Good food
• Cons: Not very pretty

Serving swift and classic Mexican cuisine handy for those who work, live or play in the Greenway Plaza area.

The Scene
This sure-fire taqueria brings the outdoors in with its whimsical faux concession stand, murals of Mexico City, concrete floors and flowery window boxes. You may spot a Texas-type celebrity (or at least Ricky Martin shaking his stuff on video television) along with families and foodies applauding this recent gustatory discovery.

The Food
Taquitos--small meat-filled tacos often confused with flautas--are the draw here, served simply with a scattering of pungent white onion and fresh cilantro on soft flour or corn tortillas. The hot Mexican tortas, or sandwiches, are very good. Equally satisfying are the distinctive sopes: tiny rounds of thick, dewy corn tortilla cakes with crimped edges that hold a bed of roughly mashed, deep-flavored black beans. You want the whole enchilada? Seek Tex-Mex. Want the total taquito? You know where to go.

• Pros: cheapgood for kidsgood for groups
• Cons: service can be rudesmall portions
