La Plaza Mexican Restaurant is a longstanding family-owned spot on Bingle Road that resonates with locals looking for straightforward, no-nonsense Mexican and Tex-Mex comfort food. Established in 1964, it carries a vibe that balances casual dining with quaint familiarity, making it a reliable choice whether you’re stopping in for a hearty breakfast or a filling dinner.

The atmosphere here leans toward a classic neighborhood restaurant feel—unpretentious with simple, clean interiors that invite you to settle in as if you’re visiting a friend’s kitchen rather than a trendy eatery. The staff are consistently noted for their attentiveness and warmth, adding to the down-to-earth experience that regulars appreciate.

La Plaza’s menu reflects its Texan-Mexican roots with staples like enchiladas served alongside rice and beans, breakfast tacos, migas, and huevos ala Mexicana. Breakfast is served all day, which suits families and morning risers who want something authentic beyond the usual diner fare. For example, the menudo and the breakfast tacos appeal to folks who appreciate traditional Mexican morning dishes, while options like steak and eggs or cheese omelets cater to varied tastes.

Practicality is part of the appeal—many stop by for quick, satisfying breakfasts before work or pick up chips and salsa to go. The fajita enchiladas and carne guisada tacos offer hearty lunch or dinner alternatives without fuss or wait times. Since it often feels like a spot where generations come to eat and chat, locals might find themselves sharing a table with neighbors or seeing the same friendly faces return regularly.

Families find La Plaza especially welcoming, with kid-friendly options like breakfast tacos made to accommodate picky eaters and enough menu variety to keep everyone happy. The prices reflect solid value, and the drink options—such as lemonade and popular imported beers like Modelo and Corona—round out a meal especially well on a casual evening out.

Visiting mid-morning or around lunch tends to deliver a relaxed, community-oriented energy. Whether it’s a quick weekday breakfast or a leisurely weekend brunch, La Plaza’s combination of steady service, familiar flavors, and unpretentious setting creates a space where food is straightforward, portions are generous, and the mood is homey without the hassle.

I had the fajita enchiladas and it was delicious! The staff were amazing. It’s a family owned business (almost 3 generations) and I felt like I was at home eating with friends and family. Definitely making this my place to go. It also has breakfast all day!

Pleasantly surprised! The food turned out great. They made some special breakfast tacos for my kids and the enchiladas were great a texmex style. Cracking real eggs, cooking everything to order in a clean kitchen and restaurant. Staff was super sweet as well. I will be back for sure to support them. I have been back 5 or 6 times since the first trip and it’s great every time. Very kid friendly as well.

I have going to La Plaza for nearly 20 years and never realized I never left a review. The food is right on spot. Temperature, flavor and price. I don't have a favorite dish because they're all good.I think my least favorite would be the pancakes. Outside of that, great hide away spot.

Ive been going to La Plaza at the corner Bingle and Longpoint in Spring Branch for 30 plus years. Started going when I was in High School. A friend of mine took me and I've been going since then. It is truly a wonderful place. The family/staff who run the restaurant are TOP NOTCH. Consistency of quality and service never diminishes. Go and support this amazing Local Business. You won't regret it.
