Great family Mexican restaurant in The Woodlands. Xalisko Cocina Mexicana has huge portions and the chips and salsa are bottomless. The fajitas sizzle comes out perfectly seasoned every time.

I order the carnitas burrito every single time at Xalisko Cocina Mexicana. Slow-cooked pork, fresh guac, and the perfect amount of everything. Best value Mexican in The Woodlands.

Good solid Mexican food at Xalisko Cocina Mexicana. The chile relleno was stuffed generously and the rice and beans are housemade. Friendly staff and quick service.

Xalisko Cocina Mexicana is a hidden gem for Mexican food in The Woodlands. The owners have been cooking these recipes for generations. Get the street tacos and the agua fresca.

The tacos al pastor at Xalisko Cocina Mexicana are the real deal. Marinated pork, fresh pineapple, and housemade salsa. One of the best Mexican spots in The Woodlands without question.

Amazing enchiladas and the best queso I have had in The Woodlands. Xalisko Cocina Mexicana uses traditional recipes and it shows. The margaritas are strong and fresh, not from a mix.

Birria tacos and consomé at Xalisko Cocina Mexicana are next level. The meat is braised for hours and the flavor is incredible. Get there early, they sell out on weekends.
