" I was blown away by the attitude of the staff, friendly and cheerful. The food was delicious too – their tacos had amazing flavor! I wish I could have tried the birria but they ran out during my visit, which was a bummer. I settled on the tacos de trompo instead; they were quite filling. I will definitely come back again to try those famous birria tacos! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love this place! The tacos are authentic, authentic, authentic! I rave about their trompo tacos to everyone I know! I usually order a lot because I can't resist the flavors, and the prices are reasonable too. The service has always been on point. Fast, friendly, and with a smile! Even when they're busy, they manage to get orders out quickly. El Norteño has become my favorite taco spot in town! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been searching for authentic tacos in Houston and I finally found them at El Norteño! Their salsas are top-notch, and the tacos are made fresh with quality ingredients. Though they do get busy, the overall experience is well worth the wait. I will definitely be back for more tacos soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great food but could improve on portion sizes. The tacos I had were flavorful, but I had to order a little more than I expected to fill up. The ambiance is good, nothing extraordinary, and the service was satisfactory. I’d return and just be ready to order a few extra items. " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I visit El Norteño, I am consistently blown away by the fantastic flavors and fresh ingredients in their tacos. The carne asada tacos are my go-to, and I love how they use authentic corn tortillas. The service has always been friendly, though sometimes a bit busy. It's a great spot to grab a quick bite, and I always leave feeling satisfied. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Norteño is definitely a favorite of mine! I always go for their flautas and tacos, which speak volumes to authenticity. The service is usually good, though they can get busy and it might take a while to get your food at peak times. Nonetheless, it's always worth it to have such tasty food! I can’t recommend them enough for craving traditional Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I feel like I stumbled into taco heaven at El Norteño! My first bite into their birria tacos took me straight to Mexico. The fresh corn tortillas are heavenly, and the meat is rich and flavorful. The only downside is they can get quite busy and you may need to wait a bit for your food. But trust me, it's worth every moment. Such an incredible experience, I can’t wait to return!
