    Authentic Mexican food straight from the mother land. The tacos here are delicious, the tortas are to die for and the menudo is great on a Sunday. Expect this spot to always be busy, the prices are very reasonable and the atmosphere is fantastic. Never had a bad meal here and I'm picky as my wife is Mexican!

    I don’t know why this place gets a lot of mixed reviews. I’ve never had any problems with the quality in my opinion, it’s not the best place for tacos but it’s also not the worst. I’ve eaten here several times whenever I’m in the area and I get their fajita tacos. I’m an absolute fan of the salsa verde because it’s got a good kick to it. The prices are also very reasonable, parking is easy to find too. I like their horchata as well. I think a lot of people get confused with all the copy’s of this restaurant. There are a lot of places that name themselves 'Tacos La Bala' but they aren’t affiliated with this one. I’ve always eaten at the location on Bellaire Blvd.

    One of the most I believe overlooked and underrated items on the menu. That I don’t think most people even realize that they have. Consume de Borrego. Lamb soup. You can get at any time of the day. They’re gonna have to make more after people find out about this gem So if you’re a fan or if you like to experience new things

    Possibly the best tacos in Houston. The first time I went I had the Barbacoa and cochinita tacos and I had to go back so the second time I had chorizo and egg/ Bacon and egg breakfast tacos. Fantastic. One of my favorite spots.
