Food: Good. Drinks: Amazing Bartender Reamer is a fantastic bartender. He brings bartending from ordinary to extraordinary! You get a meal and a show!! A lady next to me ordered a margarita so she could watch the performance as he prepares the drinks. Management’s better know they have an amazing, creative, bring-it-to-the next level employee. I didn’t make it to three flights. Was bummed out. Reaner brought a dose of sunshine and made it all better! And reward him!!! Anytime I’m in IAH, I’ll make my water stop at El Tiempo Cantina.

I was in line at Starbucks with a dozen in front of me & a dozen standing waiting. I spotted El Tiempo. I left the line & made a beeline to the bar. I was immediately given a menu & served coffee. I ordered Huevos Rancheros which was served piping hot within two minutes. It was fantastic. (Especially for airport food). I know there are a lot of poor ratings here, but it was not my experience.

Reamer is not a social bartender at all and the very weak pour equates to a miserable drink. For the price it really stings to get nothing but watered down drinks. The food is sub par, it was served in a cardboard box because they didn't have any dishwashers apparently so that too was disconcerting. Worst $100 I have ever spent in my life.

Service was incredibly slow and poor. Only one bartender to cover the whole bar and surrounding tables. Sat at bar for 10 minutes waiting to order a drink and never was asked. Got up to order in food line and finally got the bartender’s attention to order a margarita to go but that’s not allowed and he didn’t even acknowledge my wait time. He ruined my experience. It was the heavier guy with glasses and ponytail.

Food service was still a bit slow but I was actually able to get food. The girl who served me was great and gave my sizable portions that made it feel worth the money. As for quality of food, my white mother can make better burrito bowls than this tex mex. They didn’t have any guacamole left even though it comes with most of their food options which makes no sense. They gave avocado instead which was fine but when I asked for lime the lady said she didn’t have any. What?! I’m sure they had some at the bar but to ask for that was not worth it at that point.

Like the other reviews, better to go elsewhere in...

This is the most incompetent set of employees that you would ever come across. I told the bartender I have 35 minutes before boarding and they waited full 35 minutes to simply wrap a burrito ( chipotle does it in 2 minutes). Even at 35th minutes I had to beg the bartender to send me food and he replied “ I will not wrap the burrito for them”. If you do not want to miss a flight, please avoid this employee team at any cost, unless this is the last place on earth left to eat. I did make it tot he flight but worst experience with a server in 45 years. There is no option for 0 star unfortunately. This is my first review ever and worth writing to save rest of humanity from an absolute disastrous...

WILL NOT BE BACK HERE : Waited 35 mins for a steak burrito that had 3 strips of steak fat on an ice cold tortilla and had ZERO FLAVOR all for the low low price of 20$ they were out of just about everything else beans sour cream cheese lettuce ya know the stuff that goes on a burrito.the poor lady working the register was lost( she seemed new ) which is understandable but the other employees (2) would barely help her or try to train her at the very least.plenty of people drinking but the kitchen left them waiting for longer than myself because they were there before I arrived and some did not get food until I was walking away with my tasteless and lacking...
