Maria's Tacos & More — Restaurant in Houston

Once of the worst places I've ever had the misfortune to eat in. Let's start with the fact that when you walk in, they do NOT have A/C in this hole in the wall. And it was already getting hot today at 9:45 AM.

And that's ALL this is. I knew that walking in, but my regular place in the area to get tacos was closed today.

The kid working the counter, I had to tell him three times what I wanted, and he speaks very good English. I ordered 2 chorizo, egg and cheese breakfast tacos on corn tortillas. I paid and went to sit and wait for my food.

And wait. And wait. And wait.

And I FINALLY get my tacos. It was NOT busy in there. So I get them, and while the tortillas were the way I like them, slightly charred, I couldn't find any uncharred eggs. I asked for some salsa Verde (green salsa) and what I got what so watery it was terrible.

Then, as I'm starting to eat the tacos, and I look down at my plate and one of their "pets" was crawling on my plate. Luckily it didn't get near my food before I killed it. I ate the food, but took a picture of the dead pet on my plate. Good thing I have a strong stomach. I was running late for an appointment or I would have had them either remake the plate or refund my money, but I DID bring it to their attention that they need an exterminator. You can see the dead cockroach on the plate.

So this would be a zero star, since the food REALLY was bad, and the pets make me think that the bakery immediately next door to them probably is infested as well.

Avoid this place...

I drove from Cypress to try this place out. A lady employee was standing at the door talking on the phone. When I got right at the door she turned her back to me and started acting as if she was looking in the fridge that was in the lobby. I tapped on the door to get her to give me a signal if they were closed or what. She wouldn’t turn around. Tapped again and she proceeded to the back of the restaurant with no response whatsoever. Extremely rude that she couldn’t just turn around and signal they closed early. How do you expect to get more business or support from customers and this is your actions???? I will never know what the food taste like because I will NEVER return!!!! If anyone ask me about this place I will definitely tell them don’t waste your time. Rudeness is NOT the way to a welcoming atmosphere nor great customer service!!!! Hope you...

KEEP DRIVINGFirst time here will be my last time here... So disappointed. I placed my order for 6 carne guisada tacos and 3 breakfast tacos. The lady calls me up says my order is ready. I ask her if these are the carne guisada tacos, she said yes. Guess what?! Yup, yup... they were not. They were like ground meat and french fries. I didn't figure that out until I was back at work 15 minutes away. I call the lady her response oohh.... ohh... ohh... you wanted them all carne guisada...ooh... C'mon lets get it together. Basically she told me to put them in the refrigerator bring them back and she'd make them again. So she wanted the wrong tacos back the next day, since I couldn't come back the same day. Why? Are you going to resale? I was so disappointed with their lack of customer service. No apologies were given... You...
