El Meson - Houston

20 years since my last meal there and not only was it as good as the last time, it was even better than I remembered. Great service, nice selection of tapas, great ambiance, and delicious food. Ordered two entrees because I couldn’t decide what I wanted. Everything was delicious. Hopefully I’ll make it back to Houston before another 20 years goes by.

Food was different but tasty, but a good change from usual pace. No complimentary chips and salsa. Music level was low. When we walked in, the crowd resembled more of an upper class Luby 's; we did have a 6pm reservation though. It was not super kid friendly either--no kid menu. As a side note, we were seated next to the back bar, which doubled as the office when a manager stood while working on the computer, and break room as the staff gathered to sit on the floor and chat while we were having our dinner...was weird. I liked the food, and our server, but will not be back.

One of our favorite places for the last 20 years! Best Mojito in town. Cuban dishes are always amazing.

Food and service in a family friendly environment is always guaranteed. Start your meal with a tapas of croquetas and finish off with a capucino and flan

Greatly enjoyed the food at El Meson. The bread was the best that I tasted in a long time. The tapas and paella were all excellent. I will definitely make a return visit.
