We’ve been coming to the IAH Sheraton several times over the last two years, wishing there was a good Mexican restaurant in the strip mall across from the hotel on JFK Blvd. Guanatos is a true answered prayer — and then some! DELICIOUS food, a pleasing setting and very friendly staff (thank you, Leddy)! Highly recommended if you love Mexican food.

Oh my goodness…what unique flavors! From the homemade chips, to the tortillas to the salsa, this place is the best Mexican I’ve ever tasted! Alberto was super-friendly and very attentive. Excellent restaurant!!

Love this place! We went a few days ago and everything was great! The quesadilla, carnitas, tacos dorados were delicious. Homemade beans, chips and warm salsa were so tasty. Margarita on point. Service was also great. We will definitely go back.

I came to Houston to visit my husband who has been here for work, and I was waiting for him to finish work before I ate so I was pretty hungry! He had visited Guanatos Grub before so he brought me there. It’s very convenient to airport hotels for sure! We got the food fairly quickly during off hours and Letty gave us friendly attentive service. It was very good. I don’t consider myself an expert in Mexican food but it hit the spot! I had the enchiladas verdes and my husband had the tacos birrias. If you are not a fan of spicy food, as I know some people aren’t, the enchiladas were definitely mild but flavorful. 😋

This place is amazing. I came here twice in 2 days while on a business trip to Houston. The food was spectacular, and not what you'd get from typical chain Mexican restaurants (hence the authenticity that it is marketed as). The drinks were great also and were relatively inexpensive. My bartender for both visits, Vanney, was extremely kind and provided fantastic service. The entire staff is diligent in making sure you are taking care of. Highly recommend!

This is hands‐down the best Mexican food I've ever had! My husband & I came back 2 days in a row, and our food was marvelous both times. The standouts for me were the grilled steak quesadilla, guacamole, and the delicious fresh made tortilla chips. And there was a habanero crema sauce that was AMAZING! Our server, Letty, was a gem. This place is definitely worth every penny. We will be back!

Letty is an amazing server and treated us really well. The food was tasty and absolutely authentic. I noticed a lot of my fellow White folk here, so it's definitely "accessible" the general population. Prices are a little higher than some Mexican restaurants I've been to, but the quality accounts for that. The birria tacos are amazing.

Absolutely wonderful evening, my first visit to this great restaurant and certainly will not be the last. I went with a friend who I have known for 3 years and we have dined together on many occasions. We had awesome cocktails in the bar area where we perused the menu and drink menu. It was so hard to choose from the many and varied items. Vanney is an amazing bartender. Our food was fantastic, especially the desserts, the staff were happy to discuss our choices and gave us excellent service throughout . We both said one of the best times we have had.I have no hesitation in recommending Guanatos Grub for a food experience at its best. Enjoy!!!

My husband and I stopped in on our way to drop off our rental car for our flight. We were immediately greeted when we walked in, and Letty gave us great service! They are family-owned and everything we ordered was DELICIOUS and made with love! Next time we come back to Houston, we're definitely looking them up! Best horchata I've ever had!
