The food was overall good, I really enjoyed the octopus was my favorite but unfortunately the service was not good, the delivered our food to the next table that not only arrives later than us but also the place wasn’t busy at all, probably only 6 tables.

First timer here. Need to return. Not for the light budget but well worth the cost. Outstanding food and service.

The staff here is delightful. All members I interacted with were lovely. The food is also spectacular and truly reminds me of Monterrey. I hope to plan an event here soon!

Armandos on Westheimer is not your typical Tex-Mex restaurant. There are white tablecloths and they don’t serve chips and dip. With that aside, Armandos does serve excellent food! Went for brunch with a few others and everyone raved about the side of beans - smoky and slightly mashed to perfection. We went for restaurant week and appreciated that the chef would allow us to choose from either the restaurant week menu or the normal one. We ended up ordering from the restaurant week menu that included a main dish and a dessert for $25 (plus tax and tip). Two in our party ordered the steak and eggs, which added $15 per order, which was fine overall however the steak was not cooked as requested. Due to the nearly non-existent service, it was not worth waiting to ask to have the steak cooked more. We were there for brunch, arrived at 1:30 pm with less than a handful of other tables present. Our waiter was more concentrated on cleaning up after the guests left, which meant our water glasses sat empty for up to 15-20 minutes at times. The waiter also forgot to bring the order as requested for the huevos rancheros - asked for the chorizo, which is part of the meal, on the side, meal arrived without it and when I asked for it to be brought to the table an additional $3 charge appeared on the bill. While we are glad that we were not rushed out of the restaurant, being neglected and having to wait for extended periods is also to be avoided. It was our first time there and likely our last despite the flan served for dessert one of the best I’ve ever had. Disappointing service unfortunately left a bad impression.
