    Waiter was not very helpful and we sat for about an hour before we were even acknowledged. When time for the bill came around the waiter had added stuff to our bill that we did not get and then argued with us about it. Probably won’t be coming back to eat.

    We always have a great time here. We had a friend from Brazil and we took him to this establishment. We ordered the queso and guacamole for the appetizer. We ordered the crab enchiladas, lobster tail, crispy tacos, and Lulu's entrees. And desert had the tres leches and cheesecake. All very good and exceptionally well. The service was a bit slow this evening compared to other times we've been here. Overall, it was a great experience.

    Every time I’ve been to Armando’s it’s been a 5 star experience. This time I gave it 4 stars due to the noise level. Was it overly LOUD due to the majority of 20-30 year olds dining in Armando’s. I would say yes as I understand Thursdays are dance night and it was a livelier crowd than usual. TIP: Don’t go on Thursdays unless you really DONT want to hear the people you’re with.

    The service is the standout here. Drinks are great, and the queso is good… The salsa could use a little help however, but this is a great spot for date night or families. A Houston Institution!
