Another amazing dinner and another exceptional experience. We highly recommend the tasting menu. Chef Adrian Torres’ combination of flavors and dishes was spectacular, with authentic flavors beautifully rooted in his heritage and culture. Every course felt intentional, creative, and full of story. Thank you, René, for always creating such an exceptional experience, and Sol, for being such a wonderful server and taking such great care of us. A truly memorable evening from beginning to end.

The food is the star of the show and it’s incredible!! Deep, bold flavors. We had the aguachile negro oysters, doraditos de suadero, pato con mole and the pork belly carnitas. Everything executed perfectly, comforting and sophisticated at the same time. Plus Maximo has got to be the best value for fine dining in Houston. We will definitely be back!

Unique dishes and mock tails. Cute place but too crowded. The brnazino was very well done and was a good portion. We shared the appetizers loved the mushroom epenadas.

We were in town for a day visiting from Louisiana and had such a great experience at the previous restaurant this group operated (El Topo) that we had to dine here. The food and service were as good as expected. The highlights are our table were the creamsicle ribs and the watermelon salad. Also, the house-made heirloom-corn tortillas were a perfect housing for al pastor and brisket suadero tacos. We dined outdoors and the setting was great with shade during the summer. We were celebrating my daughters birthday and they even came out with special dessert for her.

The atmosphere really shines at this restaurant. The covered outdoor patio is comfortable and spacious. The service is very friendly. The drinks are strong (my favorite was the peacemaker). Great food with light and heavier options, and easy to share. The burrito is excellent.

I love all things local foods so this was easy to love!! Love the intimate vibe, high quality food while still approachable for a neighborhood spot. We got the vegetarian burrito and 2 veggie tacos. The house made hot sauce was a hit and we loved all of our food. The sunrise margarita was delicious! The ART in this spot was AMAZING and the decor overall was such a vibe.

Quaint little restaurant with great vibes. The service was great. The guacamole and queso were decent. The fish taco was my fave. The batbacoa taco was highly recommended by our server but I found it to be extremely greasy. It did have good flavor though. The tres leches cake was very tasty and as well.
