“From the moment we walked into Nuevo Leon, we felt welcomed. The staff was incredibly courteous, friendly, and attentive, and the atmosphere was comfortable and inviting. The food was absolutely delicious! The tacos were fresh and full of flavor, the salsa and chips were on point, and the potato flautas were amazing. We also tried the nopalitos, and if you’ve never had them before, they’re definitely worth trying. To top it all off, we were treated to delicious rice pudding at the end of our meal. One of the family members even came over to introduce themselves and shared the history of their family’s restaurant, which made the experience feel even more personal and special. Overall, we had a wonderful dining experience from start to finish. Great food, outstanding hospitality, and a welcoming atmosphere. We will definitely be back!”
“Segunda ves que visito este lugar y aun que era un dia muy ocupado el cervisio bueno y la comida 10de 10 definitivamente recomendado algo que me llamó la atención la organización que tienen y la dueña ni que desir muy amable”
“The staff are so friendly and helpful. I'm sure they're used to serving their local customers and to see a little Irish American girl walking in possibly throws them off. But I will keep coming back for their flautas and also, taco dinners. It's always fresh and delicious.”
“We came to this restaurant at the recommendation of the shop employee at Dulcelandia. The food was excellent, so authentic. They brought out a sample of the special of the day, some pickled veggies, and three salsas. I got the tacos rancheros and my husband got the special of the day, which was a pork dish. The atmosphere was fun too. There was a couple people singing in Spanish. The margarita was also fire. It was definitely made with fresh lime juice.”
“Desde que entramos y hasta en nuestra salida , un maravilloso servicio! A la mesa nos trajeron un canasto de tostada chips con diferentes salsas y zanahorias y chile vinagres. De appetizer nos trajeron un pequeño plato de chicharrón en salsa verde con una tortilla para probar. Luego ordenamos nuestras bebidas y comida y todo vino a buen tiempo sin deber que esperar mucho. Las personas que nos atendió cada rato venía y nos preguntaba si todo bien y nos llenaba nuestra taza de café con más café . La carne tampiqueña a término medio estuvo muy jugosa y suave. Ya al final recibimos un pequeño plato de arroz con leche para postre- todo muy rico!”
“We came to visit and brought our friend from out of town. Let me just say the atmosphere, the love, the hospitality, the food were so good. So on point, we are very happy and delighted we stopped in the owner Laura was humble, pleasant, and greeted every guest she took the time and gave suggestions on what to order. This restaurant goes above and beyond for the customers. We felt the love. the chichaon tacos were 🔥.. Along with many other dishes, we will be back very soon. Your staff is truly great and so helpful. In this is an establishment they are family oriented kid friendly, and I highly recommend it. And the food is tradition mexican cuisine. 10/10”

“A very welcoming atmosphere with friendly staff and delicious food. Live music on the weekend. My extended family gathers here to celebrate birthdays. They've always accommodated our large groups. I bring my out of town guests here and they are always amazed!! My favorite: Carne asada tampiqueña. But I've enjoyed everything I've ordered at Nuevo Leon!!”
