Velvet Taco

Velvet Taco in Hobby airport is the bomb! Food is excellent and the staff is always so friendly. Angel the bartender is there a lot, he is fast and super entertaining. I can’t say enough about this place!

Always love a good taco from Velvet taco! The veggie taco is perfectly cooked and super filling and their house hot sauce is a perfect complement to the flavors. The employees made sure my food was made fast which was a relief since I had a quick connecting flight. The tacos are also just $1 more than the tacos at their non airport locations so it’s not too much of a price hike.

The food and atmosphere were amazing. They have a smaller square footage than other restaurants at the airport and thus seating was limited. Seating is limited to the bar. But with such a warm and friendly environment, people easily made space to accommodate other’s dining. Another diner recommended the brisket taco and this was amazing. The serving size and heartiness of the taco make it well worth the price, especially if you get the combo.
Alex was an outstanding host and server. And extended superb hospitality!
I definitely would come here again.

The only limitation is that I do feel the floor plan would make it difficult to navigate in a wheelchair.

I’m not the biggest Velvet Taco fan, but I have to admit that the Tikka and Buffalo Chicken tacos were pretty good. The chicken quesadilla tasted like it was all cheese, with a piece of chicken in there every now and then. The two guys working the bar were great and the drinks were good, other than the airport prices.
