★★★★★ 5.0 Jim Gossen · Feb 2026

I love this restaurant and so glad this location is 10 minutes from my house. Everything they do is good but I driven to the grilled quail. It's always hard for me to not fill up on them. Stephanie, the bartender does a terrific job. Excellent service and very friendly.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Anna Hunter · Jan 2026

Nice spot with plenty of parking. The food was fine for the price. Salsas were really good and chips were fresh. The best enchilada was the brisket one! House margaritas were good. The tres leches was AMAZING though. Service was super fast and everyone was really friendly.

I've been here about 10 times. The food is very good. The green cilantro sauce you get for free when you sit down? Fire. Brisket Nachos, great. Lunch menu great. Campechana, great. I always sit at the bar. Table service is too slow. That's my only critique.

I took my wife here to celebrate her birthday when this location opened, it was our first time. The Chef, Samual recommended the ribs. I can honestly say they are the best ribs ive ever had. Tender, Mexican flavor with a hint of smoke. The margaritas were large, full of flavor and very well made. The staff was very attentive and Samual was very polite and friendly and gave us excellent recommendations. We will be returning again soon. This is one of our new favorite restaurants in Houston.

★★★★★ 5.0 Sydney Moore · Mar 2026

We loved Candente! We ordered the brisket nachos and the campechana, and it was more than enough food for the two of us. The atmosphere, food, and drinks were all fantastic. Damion was our server and he was wonderful! 10/10 recommend
