I’m from San Diego and I often crave “Taco Shop”! Real authentic Mexican not Tex-Mex. I will drive 45 mins from Tomball to come get my pollo asado chips rolled tacos. It does seem like some staffing issues have affected the quality of service so I hope that improves soon. View all feedback.
What Alex Romero doesn't like about Los Balito's Taco Shop Katy:
The service has taken a hard downfall in the past year or so. Went for breakfast and paid with apple pay. When the lady seen I was using my phone, she pressed a few buttons on the card reader in ann angle i couldn’t see, and my total went up a dollar from what she told me seconds before. After asking her to print my receipt I seen she gave herself an extra dollar. Unfortunately I will never return to this establishme... View all feedback.
The food was not that good.I was really hoping this place would be great because I was really hungry and my kids were too. But it just wasn't good unfortunately. It might satisfy some pallets, but it just wasn't very tasty for us at all. We are very Mexican when it comes to food. Like we go out for Japanese, Korean, Tex Mex, American food. When it comes to Mexican, usually at home or very specific places. I thought this might be really good Mexican food, but it really wasn't and the worst part was the price. Maybe I came on an off day or something, place was empty, but I felt we should give it a shot. My kids liked their quesadillas. So to put it numerically, we were 5 and.2 out of 5 were satisfied with their meals, the ones under 11yrs old, the rest of us ate whatever we could smother with salsa and lime. Also, we are dining in, the tortillas were microwaved or something, I don't really know,. It was hard and falling apart almost like a cold corn tortilla, but it wasn't cold, so it must have been microwaved I am sure, but now I will be experimenting to see if I can recreate that nonsense, I give them 5 stars for confusing me on how they ruined corn tortillas, that was a first for me. Even my kids can warm up tortillas from the store better than that, so weird. I don't think we will be coming back, but I do wish them luck, it seems like it has potential.

One of the best Mexican foods, no matter where I am, I always come back here for their delicious California Burrito. Thank you.
So, I've been here twice. Once a few years ago when I didnt live in the area and just grabbed a taco as a snack, I rember being shocked at the price then but also thinking the taco was delish Just recently went back got a couple of full meals. I will say the food is good (not especially hot, tho, and I like my hot food hot) but if you're looking for Tex Mex, this isnt it. It's more traditional Mexican food. Not the same flavor at all. But a con is the pricing. It's way too expensive. $4 for a single 2.5 inch taco, $7 for a single enchilada. Mexican food is the cheapest food to make. ? They do stuff it with meat so it's nice fat at the bottom but honestly, I'd prefer they split that one taco into 2 for $4. The bigger problem is the surcharge for using a credit card and not telling you. Tell people or build it into the price. They also put a tip option that my husband accidentally pressed. That's just so distasteful. It's a drive-thru, for goodness sake. The tipping culture in the US is out of control. I no longer tip anyone but servers. Pay employees a decent wage and stop expecting the consumer to pay for the product AND the employee wage AND the business profit. All in all, I just can't reconcile the high prices for what you get nor the dishonest credit card practices. Would probably only be back for a special. But I'm giving it a 3 for the food. Would prob give a 4 if it had been hot.
Great Tacos, smiling faces early in the morning. I will be back!
