Los Tios
4.3 (1,443)restaurant
4.3 (1,443)A Houston Tex-Mex staple that introduced the city's first frozen margarita in 1975, best known for its puffy quesos.
Description
Started by the Garbett family in 1970 and purchased by the Adair family in 2000, Los Tios built its reputation on generational neighborhood habit—centered on regular tables, familiar servers, and steady rounds of margaritas. Beyond its headline queso, the kitchen turns out traditional Tex-Mex anchors like fajitas, enchiladas, and combination plates. The operation now spans six Houston-area locations, anchored by its flagship restaurant on San Felipe.
