⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Service from Margarita!
We had such a wonderful experience at Maria Rita’s, and Margarita deserves special recognition! She was actually the hostess, but the server assigned to our section was extremely busy taking care of a large group. Without hesitation, Margarita stepped in and ended up taking care of us throughout our entire meal.
She was incredibly friendly, attentive, hospitable, and made us feel genuinely welcome. She has a fantastic personality and provided excellent service from beginning to end. You would have never known that serving our table wasn’t originally her responsibility.
Margarita is a great example of someone who sees where help is needed and simply steps in to make sure the guests are taken care of. She absolutely made our experience at Maria Rita’s a great one. Thank you, Margarita! We will definitely be back!

I dont like that they serve you very very little guacamole and sour cream with your fajita Nachos... when I asked for a container to go and for additional guacamole and sour cream they charge extra for guacamoleand sour cream, first of all what was provided initially was not enough for a plate full of fajita Nachos. Then I find out the guacamole isn't real is fake its been 3 days and it never turned brown. I was not impressed with the Maria Rita's experience. This was my first time visiting Maria Rita's restaurant

Great food and people. My only compliment is that they allow everyone to park in the mobile pickup parking. These spots are always full )even with sunshade in the windows) making mobile order pickup not friendly. You have to park a long ways away from the door just to pick up your food.

Excellent Tex Mex spot close to Hobby airport. I had the lunch fajita chicken and steak combo. The steak was juice, nicely seasoned and served at a beautiful medium. The chicken was tender and juicy as well. The two flour tortillas were soft and had nice chew to them, not dry or overcooked like many places. I’m not a big fan of refried beans in general but they did these very well. You could tell it had been freshly made. Of course the meal came with chips and dips - three different types. I appreciated that there were dips that were not all spice as I do not tolerate spice well. The queso dip was delicious, fresh and luxurious. The green sauce was also great flavor. Highly recommend this spot. The prices a great for the quality of food! The service was excellent. I even met the owner of this gem. He was a pleasure to speak with and passionate about his business.
