About Mom Alone Mexican Grill

Let me introduce you to Mom Alone Mexican Grill, a laid-back Mexican restaurant that locals around Clear Lake quietly rave about.

Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite between errands or settling in for a relaxed dine-in meal, the experience feels easy and unpretentious.

First time visiting. Great atmosphere, fun decorations! Great service, super friendly and stayed on top of table service! Food had great flavor! We got the enchiladas and tamales and a kids meal. Chips and salsa were good and we loved how we got FREE queso! We paid about $40 for 2 adult meals and a kids meal and that was with a tip. Definitely will be back.

I can’t tell you how delish the fajitas are. I'm also a huge fan of their spinach enchiladas. There isn’t anything on the menu that hasn’t been a great decision to order. One thing I love about Mom Alone is they do give queso with the chops & red salsa. I love bringing friends to experience their first time. They have all been impressed and love their food. The owners are the kindest people. I’ve been a loyal fan and customer for many years, and will be for many more!

The food was wonderful, I had the cheese enchladas and hubby had beef fajitas nachos. I love this place! The building could definitely be renovated, but otherwise A+!
