I went here for a girls night dinner with a friend visiting from out of town. This is located downtown however, they have valet available. Be mindful to use the restaurant valet and not the hotel valet. The decor and vibe are nice and would also be g

I returned to Houston for work and had to come back to my favorite Happy Hour in Houston. It's so good I can't back two nights in a row. April, the bartender is one of the best in the business. Aside from my usually Paloma, I had the Peach

Xochi was our brunch stop before the No Kings Protest.
The staff were very accommodating and kind. We ordered the Ostiones de lujo to start. They were absolutely delicious. The mole Amarillo was drinkable. I could have taken a tin of it home. The tostadas de camaron and the chilaquiles were equally delic

I took a client to dinner hear this week and they did not disappoint. The appetizers and food came out promptly and we did not feel rushed to eat and leave the table. My client appreciated the authentic taste of the food.
The service was great; the food was just good.
It expensive and we ordered some of the most expensive items on the menu and it didn't wow us but it was ok. Would I be in rush to head back? The answer would be no but if we were invited I would attend. Nothing about the place stood out the fo

Went to Xochi for HRW only to find that they weren't doing lunch on weekends. Settled for brunch instead. Xochi is elevated Mexican food. The portions are small and plated with garnish and high end ingredients. Service is impeccable with a clea
Oaxacan food that leaves you wanting more. Amazing cocktails.
The mezcal old fashioned was knock-your-socks-off delicious. The chicatama steak was Instagram photo worthy and the flavors were perfect. The corn ice cream dessert will be a go-to choice the next time I'm here.

Xochi, you were amazing.
A beautifully crafted and thoughtful tasting menu as always. Will come back for the mole and the wine pairings.

Three friends and I stopped by Xochi for HRW last Thursday and had a phenomenal time! Barring a few minor hiccups, food was delicious and we were all well taken care of. We started by parking at the nice valet around the corner from the entrance and

This might be one of the best restaurants I have ever been to, just wow. Food: I ordered the steak with ant mole and purple potatoes and I devoured the whole plate (which came with a very reasonable portion size). I also got an appetizer the Queso d
Great service, but no food left on buffet line after 2 and
Great service, but no food left on buffet line after 2 and if they do they bring it out slow. No carnitas after 1:30 disappointed.
The food was mediocre at best.
We had 5 different team members eat at this restaurant over the course of a day and none were impressed. The worst part is the staff doesn't seem to be concerned. We travel all over the US and this was one of our worst experiences.
Had a fantastic dining experience at Xochi.
I came with my team and husband on a Tuesday evening at 6p. Highly recommend making a reservation in advanced. Xochi specialized in Oaxacan style food - one of my favorites. We ordered the taquitos and queso with insects for apps. The taquitos were e
Nice Barbacoa (grilled rolled tenderloin)
I had the Barbacoa de Res de Zaachila (grilled rolled tenderloin, hoja santa, guajillo puya and costeño pepper adobo, potato, carrots, masa dumplings). The beef was tender and flavourful. My friend also liked his enchiladas. The valet parking fees (
Meh
Started off on a negative. Hostess refused to seat me at a booth even though for the entirety of my stay no one was seated at the booths and the restaurant was not busy at all. They do not have fountain soda only can. I ordered the taquitos and the x
A foodie journey with Nelson
We were pretty uncertain about what to drink and eat on this particular night in a new city with a sort of Mexican fusion menu. And because our server, Nelson, was both knowledgeable and friendly, we just left it up to him to set our path. So I rea
Yes to all!
wow! thank you Carlos for an incredible experience! the food was wonderful but the service was the best! i want to thank you all for this wonderful opportunity to try some amazing food with a delicious atmosphere!
Very good high end Mexican cuisine and Mezcal
We ate at three different Mexican restaurants while we were in Houston and they were all outstanding in their own way. Xochi was definitely on the higher in scale and had the best cuisine We opted for the mole tasting menus with the pairings and it
Good flavors on most dishes but some lacking
Drinks were delicious as usual but the fish starters weren’t as fresh as one would expect- the robalo with avocado wasn’t up top. The green chicken enchiladas were good 👍 and the seared tuna was very flavorful and perfectly cooked. The meat
Delicious Oaxacan Flavors and Elevated Service
We had a wonderful time celebrating New Year's Eve at Xochi. You can tell that this restaurant wants to delight its customers and that a great deal of thought, effort, and detail go into every dish. We each had a beautiful spinach salad topped w
THE go to restaurant!
Always go back to Xochi when we are in town. Amazing food and service. While I often skip dessert, we shared the Cacao with another couple. OMG I thought it was a real cacao pod, but after eating the delicious samplings inside our waiter let us know
Family travel
Oh yes..the best Oaxacan food we ever had!!..Best attention to detail, and best restaurant manager. Took care of us ! And attended all requests

Can't go wrong with Mexican in Houston - fun atmosphere - good tacos. Easy to walk too
Beautiful Ambience.
Food wasn't as flavorful as I would have liked. Not too many options. service was exceptional!
I love this place.
I typically get my old fashioned drink with mezcal and bourbon and it's pretty good. My wife and I have a tradition of always getting caracoles en mole Amarillo, and tlayuda de res (filling). Molotes de queso are also pretty good, and even though the
Coming here had been a long time want.
I ended up on a random Sunday after church.... and the buffet was fabulous. Sunday brunch buffets in houston so far have been good, but Xochi takes the cake so far. The salads, main dishes. And sweets are so wonderfully curated they make a Sunday tha
Great location and great food.
The Marriott Marquis isn't going to have a lame restaurant inside! They also have a great tequila selection.

Horrible experience.
I ordered what was described as a large tortilla with Mets on top. What I got was a burnt, hard/crunchy flat bread with pieces of meat on top (literally a pizza). After a couple bites I realized this wasn't right... called the waitress over and she s
Service 10/10, food 10/10, manger 10/10.
Loved the place and it was just a fantastic experience
Spectacular in every way.
Service, drinks food all amazing. We over did it and ordered too much but sooooo worth it. Try the moles, great deep flavors. The ribs with ants were also a huge hit. Nothing disappointing will definitely go back.
Slightly pricey but good food and extremely convenient
Great and convenient spot for dinner if you're staying at the hotel or are at the convention center across the street. Friendly staff, busy but got us a table quickly, delicious food. Slightly pricey, but prices definitely hiked due to the area/being
Holy Mole this place is yummy.
My family and I ate here 3 times in a 4 day trip to Houston. I’d never really had authentic Oaxaca food, and this place really delivered. I’ll definitely go back.
A Wonderful Eating Experience!

for a Mexican evening
to savor Mexican cuisine, definitely a very pleasant restaurant. Nice and fresh environment, service not very fast, but suitable for us to relax on an evening with friends. It's certainly not cheap but we are in America. However, very generous dishes
Flavor explosion
This restaurant is amazing! The flavors are explosive and the Cacoa dessert was the Best dessert I have ever had. 5 stars!⭐️
Delicious, Elevated Mexican Food with Excellent, Thoughtful Service
We enjoyed celebrating New Year's Eve at Xochi, and the four course meal they served was absolutely fantastic. I had the crispy potato tacos with salsa roja, cotija cheese, and crema fresca to start. They were delicious. In fact this may have been my
An excellent and authentic Mexican restaurant
Truly one of the best Mexican restaurants in the United States. It is hard for me to pick a favorite because everything I had there was incredibly good. The service was exemplary and the ambience was ideal. I cannot recommend this restaurant highly e
Wonderful food and Service
We reserved a table at Xochi to eat dinner before a concert. It was really a perfect location, with great staff and amazing food. We were early enough to order off of the Happy Hour menu. I loved everything we tried, but the potato tacos were my favo
Great food, very good service
One of the best Mexican restaurants I eat at. I was promptly seated despite the place being busy and me not having any reservation. Service was quick, professional, attentive. My waiter (William), was very patient and answered my questions and provid
Connect with users posting reservations for Xochi Houston
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Xochi Houston. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Xochi Houston at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Xochi Houston page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* ElaborateHouse74, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* ElaborateHouse74 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to ElaborateHouse74 for any questions Peter may have as ElaborateHouse74 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* ElaborateHouse74 now uses their connections at Xochi Houston to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If ElaborateHouse74 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, ElaborateHouse74 receives the $200 reward which is credited to ElaborateHouse74's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Xochi Houston!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
