I think the mexican restaurant on IH 45 – just north of Rayford Sawdust is very good on the west side of the highway. I like chewy’s. Hamburgers at fudruckers, cliffs, and beck’s prime. I use to love Felix Mexican restuarant but they closed.
Dude, why are you asking if you already have an opinion?
Also, not a lot of places serve both burgers and Mexican food.
The best hamburgers in town are at Sam’s Deli Diner on I-10 and Kirkwood. None of this Fuddrucker chain crapola. I want a real burger, not some overpriced, dried out processed thing with lame side orders. Give me FRIES. Sam’s can’t be beat. I have been going there (well, they moved to this location in 2006, before were on the other side of Katy freeway) since 1977 and they are still a great burger and (relatively) cheap, too!
Best Mexican… do you mean Tex-Mex or real Mexican? First of all, non of that taqueria stuff… mostly the Mexican version of fast food. For good, and I mean really good TEX-MEX, places like La Fiesta can’t be beat. This is not to be confused with Mexican food. The best authentic Mexican food in the Houston area? Either Doneraki (Westheimer) or Los Alamedas (good call, CookingPancakes!). Escalantes isn’t bad, either, but Doneraki… I don’t know what it is, but I really enjoyed it.
Central American would be El Pueblito Place.
