Bienvenidos, y'all!

Inspired by long days on the Gulf, late nights on the ranch and the colorful creations of our abuela, our family's Kitchen & Cantina showcases the rich foods and traditions we grew up with on both sides of the border. Nothing matches the flavor of food grilled over mesquite. Try wood-fired Texas quail swaddled in homemade tortillas, jalapeno rellanos stuffed with house-made chorizo and sizzling, family-style parrilladas - huge mixed platters of wild game and fresh vegetables, topped with pico de gallo and queso fresco - a unique spin on Houston barbeque. Our days begin roasting chilies and tomatoes, rolling fresh tortillas in our bakery and wringing every last drop of Ruby Red grapefruit for cocktails. We hand-grind our own sausage and hand-trim every ounce of meat in our butchery, then anoint it with the savory seasonings and marinades we've honed over generations. A few margaritas on our patio and you've found your new casa sweet casa.

    Tried appetizer and two entrees and taste were bland. Barely touched our food and never once asked "how was everything". Way too many Tex-Mex places around to go back.

    Definitely do the shrimp add-on for the fajita plate. It’s delicious.

    Food was good. Our server was very slow and didn’t check on us often enough.

    Goode Co. Cantina Heights is my favorite Mexican restaurant in Houston! As always, amazing service from start to finish the moment we walked in. Edson is the best waiter & always provides top notch service to guests. Our drinks and food came out in no time. Their fajitas are always phenomenal, and you can’t beat their margaritas! Thank y’all! See y’all again soon!
