Bienvenidos, y'all!Inspired by long days on the Gulf, late nights on the ranch and the colorful creations of our abuela, our family's Kitchen & Cantina showcases the rich foods and traditions we grew up with on both sides of the border.Nothing matches the flavor of food grilled over mesquite. Try wood-fired Texas quail swaddled in homemade tortillas, jalapeno rellanos stuffed with house-made chorizo and sizzling, family-style parrilladas - huge mixed platters of wild game and fresh vegetables, topped with pico de gallo and queso fresco - a unique spin on Houston barbeque.Our days begin roasting chilies and tomatoes, rolling fresh tortillas in our bakery and wringing every last drop of Ruby Red grapefruit for cocktails. We hand-grind our own sausage and hand-trim every ounce of meat in our butchery, then anoint it with the savory seasonings and marinades we've honed over generations.A few margaritas on our patio and you've found your new casa sweet casa.

Eddie Vs city center did a fantastic job for a friends bday celebration. It seemed as everyone (hostess, bartender, waitress, even the manager) knew it was a joint bday celebration and said happy bday to all of us. Our waitress, Carly, was awesome. She was prompt and had such a lovely disposition. She chatted and joked with us and helped make our evening that much more enjoyable. Thank you Eddie Vs. We will be back next year again to celebrate.
