Best Tex-Mex Restaurant

2011 Winner ‘Best Tex-Mex Restaurant’ in other markets »

El Real Tex-Mex Cafe

1201 Westheimer, Houston, TX 77006
(713) 524-1201
El Real was one of the most anticipated restaurant openings of the year, in part because of the star power behind it — celebrity chef Bryan Caswell and former Houston Press food critic and author Robb Walsh. The restaurant has proved that it takes Tex-Mex seriously with its tasty old-school fare. This means queso and refried beans made with lard, enchiladas served with chili con carne, chalupas and puffy tacos. As for seafood, try the "Wholefish" Fajitas, consisting of a whole wood-roasted Gulf Snapper — the dish is a real standout. The best part? This restaurant will only get better with time.
