Hear from our valued guests
We recently tried Cenas and it has officially become our new favorite hidden gem! The food is absolutely amazing!! Everything we ordered was flavorful, fresh, and clearly made with care. What really set this place apart, though, was the service. The staff is beyond wonderful, and Ashlyn in particular was outstanding. We had a large party, and she handled everything flawlessly! She was attentive, organized, and genuinely kind. She made every part of our visit feel effortless and special. If you’re looking for delicious food at an affordable price with truly top-notch service, I 100% recommend giving Cenas a try. We’ll definitely be back!
Madison was amazing. She made great recommendations and my enchiladas were so yummy and my husband loved his shrimp tacos.
Clean restaurant with great portions. Everyone enjoyed their meals. Service is great. They really focus on cleanliness, I observed a waiter cleaning under booth seats using a flashlight. If servers were more attentive, they would have got all five stars on that portion. Go ahead and give them a try, you won't regret it. The value for money is great.
Loved coming here and ordering out! The service was great. Our waitress was very attentive and we received our orders very quickly. I have ordered out several times and the food is still hot when I receive it. My favorite would have to be the fajita combo bowl fully loaded. It's my go to. The fun part, when you finish your meal before you leave you can make yourself your own ice-cream cone.
Visiting the town thought I'd give this place a try. It didn't disappoint. States with chips and choice of two salsas, both were so flavorful I had to stop myself. Ordered the seafood bowl. The shrimp was perfectly cooked. Ate the whole thing. I was really impressed with the flavors. Will definitely recommend and stop by next visit.
The food is good and the portions are large. Recently updated and the dining room has an assortment of decorative lights which makes it feel “fun”.
I almost forgot to share my lunch from yesterday at Cena's Kitchen in Tomball! It was pretty tasty!!!! The green salsa is really good too!!! #lunchtime #fypシ #trendingpost #mexicanfood #foodreview
Really good food! Our server, Ali, was really attentive and helpful. Loved the decor too, we’re definitely coming back. The fajitas were sued tender and flavorful
Sooooo cute! But most importantly, the food was delish!!! Perfect for a Saturday afternoon early dinner, late lunch. Everything was fresh and tasty. Drinks - yum! Definitely returning!
UPDATE: Cena’s has redeemed themselves and I have removed the bad review and gave them the 5 stars back. I tried them again today for a late lunch/early dinner and Adriana was very sincere and apologetic about my most recent experience which was not very good. I will continue to come and enjoy good food and drinks as long as the good customer service remains. Thank you Adriana and Madi for taking good care of me today. I will be back because of y’all. This place is so good and I am a fan and tough critic of Tex-mex food and margaritas! I went here two days in a row because I was having my car serviced nearby and was in walking distance to the restaurant while I waited for my car. First day I got Plato Salinas. Excellent. Second day I got Plato Guzman. Amazing. Both days I did the Gold Rush margarita with Grand Marnier or I think it’s the Cena Rita. The bartender, Dulce, is excellent! Very knowledgeable on menu items, gave great recommendations, and made very tasty margaritas. If you come here and say it’s not good, you’re just unhappy with life I’ll assume because they do not miss! The music, decor, ambiance, customer service, and taste/freshness of the food was all 5-star. I will definitely be back!!
