" Cuchara is truly a gem in Houston! From the moment we walked in to the friendly greeting at the host stand, we felt welcomed. We decided to go for a family-style approach and shared a variety of dishes including the Tacos al Pastor and Queso de Fogata. Each dish was authentic and flavorful; it felt like a true taste of Mexico. The only downside was the waiting time since it was busy, but the food made it worth it. Will be returning soon!
