My brother which is a local resident took me to this place during a hot summer. We loved everything that we ordered. I ordered the mangonada and it was frosty yet it felt smooth. There is it much place to sit plus you must practice Social distance. Debit/credit cards accepted.This is a place to pick up some delicious Latin frosty treats but it’s not a place sit and dine.When we visit Houston, we will go again.
This little place is always great. The staff is friendly and the food and drinks are great.
Best bang for your buck if you want a cold treat. The small snow cone is $1.00. The nachos were a great snack too!
Always its a blessing coming ova here to see my family and get together and talk
This place is delicious! Everything weve tried is soo good. And even if you show up last minute, the ladies here are soo friendly and eager to help you. Soo worth the almost 30 min drive from the other side if town just for this. HIGHLY recommended!!!!
Super refreshing raspas (snow cones with shaved ice) and licuados ( fruit juice drink blended with shaved ice). My favorite is limonada licuado its so refreshing on those Htown summer days. No inside dining here but they have tables and a patio with coverings. Great place for the kids. Small bites menu includes nachos, hotdogs, and elote (roasted sweet corn with hot sauce, cheese and mayo) among other fair type foods. They accept card but cash is preferred. Tip well the staff deserves it.
Disappointed since I took my wife and she wanted fresh lime juice in her snowcone. They used the pre squeezed bottled limes that have preservatives. I drove up here for nothing 😑
Delicious! Drinks and snacks are tasty, great portion sized, and reasonably priced. They also take card too
Bad customer serviceNo communicationMal servicioNo communicacionNo les importa la genteI’ve been coming here since little kidDisappointment all over it
Takes long but worth the wait
Elote cumpuesto and raspas - FABULOUS!!
El Bolillo as always BUSY..but worth the drive for awesom bread at awesome prices..good size, adequate amt of sweetness n very modestly price ;very fresh!!!
Ive been coming here for 15 years the food is consistent and always taste amazing !
I had a small banana snowcone with a friend. They have added a nice patio with tables if you want to stay and enjoy the evening air like we did. Ive also had the Mexican style roasted corn in a cup with all the traditional toppings and it was delicious. It seems that it is always crowded but they try to move the line pretty fast.
There isn’t a place better in Houston for Raspas!! The best price, and something for everyone in the family! Elote is great, hot Cheetos and cheese is 🔥!
You cant beat the value for the price. The elote is really good. Mango shake was good. And they drowned the snowcone in syrup, definitely cannot complain about this place
Delicious elotes, ice cream, and churros!
This place has amazing food for all the people who love to get spoiled with goodies. The menu is straightforward and the service was fast and easy. I will definitely be going here again. 😌
Always my happy place
Delicious snacks 😋. Muy ricos elotes.Come prepared cash only. Bigger bill $20.
Elote en Vaso delucioso, raspas and more its so far from my house but doesnt matter I always go with my family
Its cold and line still long...Everything was good accept the white coconut tasted like expired apple juice! I feel so bad I gave it to my son.But Everything else was good!
This place is just like I remember it. Since I was very young my aunt would take me and my brothers for a raspado and that would be the highlight of my weekend. Now I do it with my kids and they love it. Thank you for the tradicional great rapsdos and other options that make my mouth water. Remembering and making new memories. 🍧
Great refreshments, you can find one on almost every corner one the north side 😀 👍
Been coming here since I was a child. Still on point after all these years
Delish and yummy yummy Raspas, Elotes, chicharrones etc.they have so many flavors!!
Corn and a cup. My favorite
Wonderful place to get snacks Nachos, Frito Pie, Corn in a cup etc etc and the best sno-cones in Town just like Poor Leonards Raspas on Fulton use to back in the old days
Best raspas place in houston
The only downside is the wait... one cash register for 3 windows is ridiculous.
I dont remember much alot this place so im not really sure what to rate it. Im rating this place a two stars because if I was there i was probably there for a reason
Pretty ok mexican snacks. Their licuados are the bomb.
Food and raspas are the best
I love to get sno cones and elotes here
Been coming here since I was a kid and now bringing my kids. Hasnt changed much which is good.
Old school raspas..love them
Good as f@#% !
Its ightWatery a** corn
Im glad they finally take cards now! Big plus!
Over a 30 minute wait time for one large Raspa, never again. Note to future customers, to avoid confusion and horendous wait times. Depending on how many windows are operating (theyre are 3 in total ) that is how many lines there are. Unfortunately when I arrived I was misinformed, they said there was one line (to avoid crowding) with 3 windows opened. Which didnt last long because people started skipping. Eventually I caught on and was finally served but only after skipping too..lol But at least now I know there are 3 darn lines. . There is no order or respect for others, your on your own. Its the hood..
ITS AMAZING AT TASTES SOOO GOOD
I love Tampico, have memories of coming to this location as a kid almost everyday after school. Their Mexican corn tastes way better than any other spot in my opinion. They have a nice selection of flavors and different snacks. The only downside to this location is that there is no drive-thru like a couple of their other spots.
Still the best raspas and elotes in Northside
Best place for snow cones in Houston
They accept debit card purchases. Many moons ago it use to be a cash only place. I am glad that they upgraded. Service was excellent as always.
El lote. The best in town. Period.Shakes are also good. Banana. But the el lote...
Just went here and took a sip of my raspa which was supposed to be sour green apple. It tasted nothing like that, it didn’t even taste like apple. Went back and told the lady, she said that was the correct flavor. I asked her if she could please change it. She said no, that I had to buy another one. The least she could’ve done was change it.
Great refreshing snow cone
Awesome snowcones.
I personally did not see a “cash only” sign, even when looking for one while leaving. The lady put the snow cones and elotes out and said “cash only” when I was standing there with my card. I said, “oh no, I don’t have cash” and she quickly without hesitation moved the stuff back in. She didn’t say anything to me and just pointed to the stairs to leave. They should really say it’s cash only before ordering and have a sign out in sight. I was so excited since it has been months since I ate a snow cone. Also, why would it be cash only?! Super annoyed with that, lack of sign, and bad costumer service.
Best place for a snow cone! Flavor is always on point . A must have if you are in the area.
A family favorite at our house for some tasty corn-in-a-cup & snowcones. If you havent tried the natural flavors, the lemonade & the leche (dont forget to have them add crema) are the best! Beware, this is a popular spot, especially in the summer, but the lines move fairly quickly. Cash only, which is why I didnt give 5 stars.
Been coming here since I was able to walk, too bad thet keep raising the prices. They need to be better organized. While I was there, they messed up about 5 peoples order including mine.
My favorite mango fruit shake. So much better than smoothie kings with all the extra sugars etc.
Very tasty items... their tamaríndo is phenomenal!
Best snow cone place. Have been coming here for years.
The best spot in houston
When I pulled up I knew it was gonna be good! The arrow con leche can be served warm or cold. It is AMAZING warm!! They definitely serve plenty of syrup on the snowcones & chamoy on the mangonada! You need to teach the snowcone places in San Antonio how to be generous like this! The prices are low & servings are large.When we visit Houston again we will definitely be back for more. Thank you!!
Always fresh treats and very friendly staff!
Very fresh fruit milk shakes. The best shake is the mango and the strawberry banana. The shakes cost 2.50. Very affordable for 12oz.Perfect amount of freshness. They also serve elotes, snow cones, Jimaca and hot dogsI highly recommend this place for a snack or smoothie
Very bad experience, I order a mangonada, I never had a mangonada so nasty, no shave ice, look and taste terrible no pieces of mango. Never will give back!!!
The best corn in town
Very good😋also excellent prices😊
Great place to get some snacks and Latino snow cones. This particular area its very popular and will consist have an influx of people trying to place orders. Expect to find long lines of people if you arrive after 5:00 pm.They only take cash, $20 bills being the largest bills they accept. A good place overall.
I have been coming here for more than 20 yrs this place is the best!!
Ive been coming to this place since I was a kid. 20 years later, still a happy customer. Plenty of nostalgia and plenty of flavors. Love my raspas with cream.
Usually, I go for the raspas and occassional snack. Great place for cheap summer snacks great price and even better portions, YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!!!
Always great spot to refresh!!!
Cash only! Very good Snow cones and Snacks like Nachos, Corn in the cup, Hot dogs ect. they have a variety of flavors for your sow cone and add on are available at an extra cost. Very good, Ive been coming for years, I even make a 20-25 min trip to this particular location. Evenings are Peak hours so be prepared to wait in line.
Best refresqueria ever! Great prices and great taste. Wish there was a location closer to where I live.
They have very inexpensive summer treats. We go very often and theres never a long line. Great for just a few bucks. They have a variety of treats such as, slushies, chips, pickles, fruit and even churros. We love everything there and definitely recommend!!
Is good nothing fancy hoping had more options but they aint stringy with adding the condiment
Everything on the menu is delicious. I dont live near it, but if I did I would be a regular.
I love everything here except the mangonadasit doesnt taste like real fruit. But everything is good and affordable!
Great for a hot day... nice sitting area with shade and banana trees.
I wouldn’t even give it 1 star. The ladies were rude for no reason and we personally didn’t see the “cash only” sign so when we asked if we could pay w/ card they didn’t even bother talking to us.
Just awesome raspa de leche con crema..Esquites and nachos great food....I just visited that place since 1993 frequently
Worst customer service ever!!! Never going backLadies so rude..flies everywhere..the counter so nasty ..when you ordering theyre dispatching someones else and dont care about your order always asking what you order 🙄 when I finally got my order the raspas was already melted ..so disappointed of this location it used to be a good service and good place to chill and have a good time
Love the snow cones and corn in a cup!
Very good on a hot Texas day. Well priced ices with fresh juice. We went with a group and had the lemon-lime, watermelon and piña colada. The place was packed but worth the wait. They also serve food which will be tried on the next trip.
You want a yummy snow cone any time of the year this is the place to come to. Definitely try the leche con crema. I love their arroz con leche(rice pudding). Ask for everything on the menu and dont forget the elote🌽
I got a mixed Mango and Tangerine Raspas. It was great. This is a cash only place.
The lady’s are Very rude . Raspados are pretty basic, I thought they would be natural flavor . Super stingy with everything even if you paid for what you buy . I would not recommend.
