Tacos aren't just for Tuesdays in Texas, the first state in the U.S. where Latinos make up 40.3% of the population, outnumbering non-Hispanics, according to 2020 data from the Census Bureau. Houston, boasting an even higher percentage at 44%, is one of the major cities in The Lone Star State where Latin American restaurants proudly showcase the rich culinary heritage.
From the heart of the city to the vibrant enclave of Chinatown, Houston boasts a seemingly endless array of culinary options. Spoiler alert: to the surprise of no one, the most predominant Latin American dining choice is Mexican or Tex-Mex cuisine.
