Locating Great Mexican Food Houston TX

By Dorothy Olson


One great thing about the south is the variety of cuisine available. Being so close to the gulf, whether resident or visitor, Mexican Food Houston TX is often a popular choice for those wishing to dine out. When looking for some of the best gulf coast seafood and Mexican seafood available, Galveston is only a short drive south of the city.

While some have recovered from hurricane damage, others are still in the process. One in particular that recovered rather quickly is that of Last Concert Cafe. Last Concert or LCC as its known by regulars is a Mexican restaurant and nightlife venue located in the Warehouse District.

The owner also produces a number of touring concerts and special events throughout the year. Some of these include local benefits, Halloween, New Year's Eve and an annual Watermelon festival each Summer. As the owner also works as a caterer, the food and drink at these and other events are often some of the best in the city.

One band, The Hightailers, played every Thursday for over twenty eight years. With the restaurant and music venue being so popular, there are other bands and musicians which continue to fill the time slot on a regular basis. Whereas, there are local and touring acts gracing either the indoor or outdoor stage on a daily or weekly basis.

With bands having played for over 20 years, fans have become more of a community than an audience. As such, these individuals are often the first on the scene when assistance is needed. In addition, most attend the weekly shows as a method to network with one another, especially during stressful times such as after Hurricanes Ike and Harvey.

Located in the newly redeveloped Warehouse district, the cafe has a history all its own. For, back in the early days the building served as a brothel. As such, to this day, those wishing to enter the establishment must knock on the door to gain entrance.

Beyond the entertainment, the restaurant continues to serve outstanding Mexican food with a number of American options. While traditional in style, several dishes are named after past and present employees who created the dish by adding a few extra elements. While originally only serving beer and wine, the bar now has a liquor license and offers a full bar with a number of local microbrews and name brand liquors.

While there are a number of restaurants operating in the area, Last Concert is just one of many hot spots which should not be overlooked. Whether visiting the establishment for a look at the historic building, the bar, food or nightlife, the venue has a lot to offer. Whereas, there are also a number of art galleries with many more downtown offerings being a short drive up I-10 West.
