Taqueria y Pupuseria Cristal is a gem in Houston’s culinary scene! 🌟 I indulged in their Pupusas - absolutely the best I've had in Texas! They were perfectly stuffed and not greasy at all. I also tried the Empanadas De Platanos, which were a delightful sweet contrast.

The ambiance is cozy and casual, perfect for solo dining or bringing the family. Plus, the prices are a steal - my meal was under $15! I’ll definitely be back to explore more of their menu. Don’t miss out! 🍽️
