    I finally went to this restaurant after many recommendations.. the place was full but I didn’t wait long until I was seated. The service is great and the food delicious; some of the outstanding dishes were the “enchiladas”, “tacos rancheros” and the “guava pancake”. This place really transports you to Mexico and its traditional kitchen. Will be back for sure soon!

    I had the pleasure of dining at Ojo de Agua in the River Oaks District, and I must say, it's hands-down the best Mexican food I've ever had in Houston! The tacos were incredibly flavorful, with fresh, high-quality ingredients that truly shone through. But the real standout for me was the ceviche - it was absolute perfection. The combination of tender seafood, zesty lime juice, and subtle spices was truly unforgettable. The service was also top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff who made sure our every need was met. If you're a fan of Mexican cuisine, do yourself a favor and get to Ojo de Agua ASAP. You won't regret it!

    These were fine dining prices with mediocre food & service. For 2 people - we ordered a guacamole, a tropical ceviche, lobster tacos, 1 latte with caramel & oat milk, & 1 horchata with guava & the bill with 18% tip was $120. Our server & the hostess were nice but by no means was it fine dining service. The ceviche was so fishy I spit it out & I have never done that.

    Malo, esta vez me pareció muy malo y con sabores completamente diferentes y la calidad y cocción. Lleve amigas porque siempre lo súper recomendaba, pero esta ves no fue lo que esperaba.

    Everything was great until we were ready to pay our check. I had to ask twice to pay. Other than that our experience was a good one.
