El Aragan Restaurant Houston Reviews
I absolutely love this place! The tacos are delightfully tasty and don't forget the frijoles charros, yummy! They are always fast and friendly and it's easy on the pocket.
Best $2 tacos in town!
Man these taquitos are the best just like San Antonio taco place finally I found my taco stand these others people putting 1to3 stars they need to shut the hell up cuz nowhere else u gonna find this taste hallelujah!!!!!
I love the tacos here. Always get fajita and tripitas. Brung my friend from california here who had lost hope in houston food. She enjoyed the torta, best she had since she's been here.
There are a lot of trucks around town at which I go for maybe 1 -3 types of meat they make really well, but rarely do you find a spot that is so consistently good across the board the way El Aragan does. The suadero and longaniza are a must. The salsa will kick you like an angry mule, but it's hard to stop pouring it on.
Love this place, it is Always open Late and the Price is not bad for Street Tacos. They sell so many different varieties of tacos, burritos and etc. Wait is a little long but well worth it
For being as picky as I am about Mexican food I loved it. The charro beans were so good I drank it. The gordita I got was a bit smaller than expected but I liked the meat since it didn't have any fat which I prefer. I added the green salsa (delicious btw) with the cilantro, onion, and limon. This was soooooo good. You definitely need to try it!
This place will be the death of my diet. There is not a better taco truck in Houston I'm willing to bet money on that. The tacos are small and you feel like you can eat 10 but really you get about 5 tacos in and you can't eat anymore. The charro beans are good and spicy make sure you have a cold drink to cool your mouth off
Always quick and delicious tacos and quesadillas. Hot sauces are good, green is for flavor and red is spicy! You can call your order in and just pick it up. Food has never made me sick I’ve ate from here more than 10 times!
If you live in 2nd ward and are craving for tacos or looking for a taco truck during the evening this is the only place that i found that actually stays open after 5pm and wow i was very satisfied on the tacos they are a bit pricey for how small they are. But the tacos taste good. Green salsa is spicy. And the beans are great!
Another great staple within the community! If you ever happen to wonder down Griggs to get your oil changed at the Grease Rack, then you should walk on over to the taqueria next door. My favorites are the fajita tacos and the tortas.
The barbacoa tacos and the fajita tacos are the way to go! Food is always great, hot and packaged nicely. The employees are quick and very friendly. I usually order to go and pick it right up when I get there!
Theyre good and decent food here , just the wait is forever & As of today 08/08/2020 i called to place a order and said it would be ready in 10 min . We get here just for them to say they didnt get no call in order so we had to wait for them to make it from scratch .
Lately it's been hit or miss. Sometimes the fajita flavor is great and sometimes bland. The last 2 times I ordered tacos the tortillas didn't even look like they were fully cooked. The salsa is great. Be sure to check your order before leaving.
I haven’t eaten here in many years but was hungry at 2am and didn’t want to drive far. The torta was delicious! The fajita is pretty good. However, the chicken taco I bought was bland and dry. This isn’t the greatest taqueria but definitely not as bad as Ruchi’s! Good place for late-night eating, open til 4am and 24-hours on weekends.
Flavors were good, but portions were small (I mean really small-finished my tacos in 2.5 bits-you should never finish a taco in 2.5 bits) The staff only spoke Spanish, so ordering was hard, because my Spanish is poor and it was cash only. Also, the truck is huge, so the order window is slightly hard to reach. The local residents love it and call to order ahead (it did take a while for just two small tacos). So while, I found this on a fluke, sadly I won't be back and can't recommend. Why? They don't do traditional breakfast tacos. Please be weary of the red sauce...it's lava hot. The prices were reasonable, just wish the portions were larger.
This place was ok. I ordered 2 patato,egg and chorizo tacos on flour tortillas. It was ok but nothing super special about it. The tacos didn't have a lot of chorizo in them. I'm used to my tacos being kinda orange/red cause of the chorizo but you could tell they didn't really use a lot if it. It looked more the color of the eggs. I'll probably give these guys another shot. Probably won't be eating the breakfast tacos though. I'm gonna try the fajita tacos next time. Hopefully next time they will be better. If not It'll probably be my last time.
No offence to these people our first visit was fantastic the food was delicious so decided to go again late tonight and considering we were the only ones there.. they have given us the wrong order which we didn't notice until we got home. How annoying is that. So we decided to call back and she had told us that she has repeated the order so we were too tired to argue. All me and my wife know they have lost our business thank you we will go somewhere else.
Ridiculous I ordered tacos and came home with no carne in my tacos. Only lettuce and cheese. I called the phone number listed and call does not go through Horrible experience. I experienced a tacos stand not giving me salsa once but no carne smh
I was coming from other side of town so I was calling to make my order an they put me on hold till I actually walk to the window I’m still on hold on my phone for 20min the lady said it’s cause I was busy and nobody was at window when I pass and pull up too window .....bad customer service
