HoustonianInColorado Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 The thread about Monterey House reminds me of another place I used to like. Is Los Tios still around? I loved their puff tortillas with queso. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashikaga Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 The thread about Monterey House reminds me of another place I used to like. Is Los Tios still around? I loved their puff tortillas with queso.I just found this. Someone else on the Monterey House/El Chico topic said that he used to eat here. Maybe it was a chain.

Trophy Property Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 I just found this. Someone else on the Monterey House/El Chico topic said that he used to eat here. Maybe it was a chain. I posted on another thread of 4 los tios I still know of. Meyerland, Westhiemer, Sugarland, and Memorial. I have eaten at all 4. My favorite is the Westhiemer store. For some reason the food tastes better and is more greasy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favorite is the Westhiemer store. For some reason the food tastes better and is more greasy Avoid Sugarland at all costs. Kirkwood @ Memorial or Westhiemer stores are a safe bet. Los Cucos gets my dollars though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heights2Bastrop Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 I used to eat at Los Tios way back when. I also ate at El Patio a lot. The food at both places was so similar that I would have sworn they were the same chain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enviromain Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 The thread about Monterey House reminds me of another place I used to like. Is Los Tios still around? I loved their puff tortillas with queso.Yes, I used to eat at the Los Tios on Bissonnet and Fondren. Good Food! Good Nachos! I knew that particular store closed, but I did not know there was still one open in Houston. My favorite is Felix's on Westheimer. Casa Ole is pretty good too.

TexasCE Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 Yes, I used to eat at the Los Tios on Bissonnet and Fondren. Good Food! Good Nachos! I knew that particular store closed, but I did not know there was still one open in Houston. My favorite is Felix's on Westheimer. Casa Ole is pretty good too.My family used to eat at that same one over on Fondren all the time. Then (I think) they moved that store over to the location across from Meyerland. In my opinion, it just was never the same. I don't know what they did different, but the food just never quite sat the same with me. I haven't been back there in probably 7 or 8 years.As far as being owned by Skeeters, I'm pretty sure it wasn't always that way. However, when they moved from the Fondren location that may have been brought about by being bought by Skeeters, but I don't know foir sure.

The G-Team Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 One of Marvin Zindler's favorite restaurants is the Los Tios in Meyerland. I've been there on several occassions where he walked in and knew all the employees by name. That was about 5 years ago now - I've moved since then so I don't know if he still frequents the place or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
