Benito was awesome !! He kept making sure we were taken care off and went over the house specials that day ! The Margaritas were something else def coming back.

Food and service are great! The handmade tortillas are perfect with the fajitas! Bartenders are great!

We love the fajitas! It's a Sunday after church stable. The meat is tender and getting a half pound is enough to share with another person.

Best food in Houston. The meat is so tender it melts in your mouth. Service is awesome. We sat outside and they put on the game for us.

This El Tiempo is my favorite location. The interior is so well decorated and so colorful. I literally dream about the stairs to second floor. As all El Tiempos go, it's a safe bet you're going to have a yummy Tex Mex experience. Pretty standard, but pretty good. It's like... have I had better Swiss enchiladas? Yes. But it's still good. Still gets the job done. Haha I will say depending on which floor you sit will be a factor in the service you will receive. The second floor is a little neglected but it's also quieter so it's better for talking.

5 star customer service for sure! I randomly decided to stop here while in the area.. a peak at their great reviews didn't make the decision hard. We were greeted upon entry with big smiles and welcoming vibes. They have outdoor seating with a nice view, but I chose to sit inside. It wasn't overly crowed, but definitely busy. Our waiter was absolutely amazing! There was a different man who refilled the waters without us having to ask, just great service all around. The food was a 5/5 for me, the person that accompanied me gave the brisket nachos a 4/5. I ordered a single soft taco since this was my first visit... once it came out I was shocked to see how huge it was! Sorry guys, I started devouring it before I could take a proper picture! But here's half of it! It was the softest and juiciest soft taco I've ever had. I'll definitely be returning when I have a bigger appetite, thanks guys for the awesome experience! The parking area is pretty spacious as well.

While in Texas we wanted some Tex-Mex food so decided to check El Tiempo Cantina out. I came as a party of 4 on a Saturday night without reservations and we didn't have an issue with a wait. We were instantly given their house made chips and salsa. They were delicious and we all were loving them. To start we shared their Chile Con Queso. The Queso came out with some thicker crispy chips which were really good as well. For dinner we shared their Chile Relleno a la Ninfa and their Old School Carnitas. Each dish came with rice and beans. The rice was a cilantro lime rice which was good. The Chile Relleno a la Ninfa we got came with meat inside. I thought it was pretty good except I did not like the raisins, pecans & cinnamon in it. it is simply not my thing. The Old School Carnitas were good though. It was slow cooked pork served with some sliced avocado, sour cream, and salsa. It came with some bomb ass house made tortilla and sauce. The portion for everything was huge and definitely shareable. Presentation of everything was also really nice. Our waiter was very attentive and welcoming. The food came fairly fast. What I did not like was that our Queso appetizer came out after our entrees. But other than that we were pretty satisfied. The restaurant is nice and I like the ambience. It has a high energy vibe about it which I like. Parking is easy since it is valet parking only.

So impressed with El Tiempo Cantina! Probably the best Tex Mex restaurant I've tried in Houston so far. The vibes are immaculate--not too fancy, but still nice and well-decorated--and the service was very friendly. The prices are also very reasonable considering the portions and quality of the food. The highlight of the night was definitely the Old School Carnitas. We got the crispy option, and it was so incredible. The texture was amazing, with a perfectly crunchy outside and tender and moist inside. The flavor was bursting and paired well with the accompaniments of the dish (my favorite being the butter sauce). Overall, I really recommend El Tiempo Cantina if your looking for some great Tex Mex!
