We visited on a Saturday afternoon afternoon. The place was fairly empty with the door propped open though it was 30 something degrees outside so I did ask for it to be closed as my food was getting ice cold within seconds. We ordered taquitos beef and chicken. We preferred the chicken though there wasn’t much meat in the taquitos and we ordered the nachos. The meat for the nachos was excellent but the cheese for the nachos had no flavor $17 for nachos the size of what you get it. Taco Bell is crazy. The register was very friendly and knowledgeable. She explained the menu in great detail, but we need to get some seasonings in there, garlic powder, onion powder they did not have corn on the cob, but had corn in a cup with a high up charge and it was not very good but their beans are good a little spicy. The donut was excellent but I love cinnamon and caramel

I love being asked if it’s my first time visiting an establishment!! Their team explained the menu and the specialty items. She had us sold on everything she suggested. And nothing disappointed. The chips truly are Bomb AF, the nachos are huge and filling, but the special thing here is the team who is excited to tell you about their favorite items! This needs to be a new spot for a delicious meal.

Saw this place on instagram and had to check it out! I got the 2 taquitos combo (1 ground beef &1 chicken)…. They both were good but I liked the chicken more. Let be not forget the young lady who took my order! She was super sweet to start off and then she had such great customer service skills. She asked if I’ve ever been before and then proceeded to give me all the options for my order with such patience. Now the elote corn on the cobb is so fire. The corn is very fresh and tasty! I’m definitely coming back to try out some more options

Only thing this place has was the friendly staff. The place was empty during lunchtime on a Saturday.
The taquitos however were subpar. I got the fully loaded nachos, 3 combo, (potatoes, shredded beef, and chicken), and horchata slush. The taquitos were not packed full of filling and the meat had no flavor to them. For the price of taquitos which works out to be $3 dollars a piece it was disappointing. The nachos was decent but pricey as well at $17. Horchata slushy was not good, it tasted more of a vanilla shake with a slight hint of cinnamon.
If you have a taqueria that you get your taquitos from I would stick to that.

The wait is finally over for the Houston location of Roll Em Up Taquitos! After tirelessly commenting and DM-ing their Instagram about the opening, I’m thrilled it’s now up and running. My first visit, however, had a couple of hiccups but it wasn’t their fault.

Upon arrival, I found the place to be well-organized and welcoming, with staff offering a warm greeting. I was the only customer at the time, which made for a quiet, personal experience. The cashier was helpful in explaining the menu, which features taquitos, nachos, beans, rice, street corn, and churro donuts. I also tried the Horchata slushy, though I found the caramel drizzle a bit much for my taste.

I ordered a 4-pack combo, mixing flavors like potato ground beef, shredded beef, and shredded chicken, with both flour and corn tortillas. Unfortunately, since I didn’t eat the taquitos immediately, they became soggy and didn’t taste as good. The cashier’s recommendations were spot-on, but the sogginess affected the flavor and texture.

The Roll Em Up sauce comes in mild or hot; I chose mild. For sides, I opted for rice and beans. The rice was flavorful but could use a touch of citrus. The ranchero beans were a bit too salty for my taste, and the street corn was missing the cojita cheese that I love. The churro donut was decent but had too much cinnamon and sugar for my preference.

On my second visit, I attended their soft opening and learned about the grand opening on August 17. The first 100 customers received free taquitos for a year, so I decided to join in. The line was manageable, and I met some great people while waiting. The manager remembered me from my previous visit and introduced me to Dave, the owner. It was great hearing about the challenges he faced in opening the location and his patience throughout the process.

During the grand opening, I tried their lemonade and passionfruit drinks, which I mixed to create a refreshing Arnold Palmer-style beverage.

Overall, Roll Em Up Taquitos offers a unique experience with delicious food and a friendly, family-run vibe. I’ll definitely be back to try more from their regular menu!

This place is exceeded by expectations!!!!! The atmosphere was so warm and welcoming , the staff were incredibly friendly and the food was simply outstanding. Every dish was so flavorful ! I love the corn the most with Cheetos and sour cream ! They had it cup option too, but I just went with the whole corn. The level of hospitality was immaculate. Loved everything about it. I’d recommend this place to everyone!
