Uh-maze-ing! - Edit
We found this place by accident, and I’m so happy we did! The Birria tacos and taco platter were so good! I especially liked the homemade consommé that came with the birria tacos. The flan dessert was out of this world. We also had a drink call the Russo that was very refreshing and you can have it as a mocktail or with a shot of vodka. The queso con chile and guac with chips was a yummy start to the meal.

Unreal food - Edit
Ordered via delivery, I’ve never had this good a chimichanga. I cannot wait to visit the area again to go back.

I used to love this place - Edit
This used to be one of my favorite places in Houston but the food has gone down in quality. I’ve given this place numerous chances but the last three times the food comes out after a long time and it’s always cold. The rice is always very hard and the food is too salty. It used to be very good.

Vegan Mexican — loved it - Edit
We ordered a take out meal for dinner. Wish we could have eaten on their lovely outside deck. The menu was extensive and the staff showed us to a table and helped us with our choices. Many different choices—tamales, burritos, chimichangas etc. and about 10 or so kinds of “meat” to choose as fillings. We had the quesadilla as a platter (rice and beans) a la carte. It was delicious and quite a bit of food. Enjoyed it so much.

A must try for the Houston vegan scene! - Edit
These folks are making magic in the kitchen at Cascabel, so delicious and flavorful! Highly recommend the street taco sampler, it’s filling and you get to try so many wonderful flavors all at once! Also, the dirty horchata with coffee is the stuff of dreams!

Fantastic selection! - Edit
Great laid-back vibe, un-pretentious, and WOW their specialty "meat" selection! I got the taco platter with: bistec, baja, al pastor, tinga, and fajitas, and couldn't decide which one was my favorite because they were all amazing. My partner got the quesadilla poblana and we were enthralled with it as well. Big fan of this place and it'll be on our list to hit whenever we're back in Houston!

Favorite restaurant - Edit
Since I've stopped eating meat , I missed good Mexican food. Cascabel brought it back for me. I recommend it every single time someone asks me for good food. Everything you order comes perfectly seasoned and you can ask for extra hot salsa. 10/10.

An All-Vegan Mexican Restaurant? Yes, Thanks! - Edit
I ordered online, and was in the restaurant only long enough to get my bag of dinner, so I can't say much about the ambience or service. (TThough there is a large outdoor seating area, along with the inside space, and they were feeding a beautiful neighborhood cat out on the patio.) But I can attest that my dinner was wonderful! I got their special burrito that allows for a number of customizations; I was very happy with how mine came out, but I suspect many other combinations, and other dishes, would be just as pleasing. I look forward to your report when you go!
Read morePros: Tasty, Many options, Good-sized portions!
Cons: Not close enough to where I'm staying!

Great jackfruit enchiladas - Edit
I liked the jackfruit enchiladas and would be happy to get them again, though with so many options on the menu, there are lots of things I'd like to try. Three enchiladas smothered in cheese and a sauce, served with rice, a small salad, and three salsas. Friendly staff, too.

My favorite vegan spot so far! - Edit
Our waitress was so kind and so helpful, which was the first of many great things about this place. There were so many delicious options to pick from! I sampled dishes around the table - they were all amazing. The carnitas stood out because of the exceptional flavor and texture! I really cannot say enough good things about this place! 💖 Can't wait to come back and try more things. :)
