URBE Houston
A Tribute to the Street Markets of Mexico
URBE, meaning "city," is a soulful exploration of the diverse culinary landscapes found throughout Mexico. Located in Houston's Uptown Park, our restaurant is a deliberate departure from fine dining, embracing the energetic spirit of a fast-casual mercado. Founded by Restaurateur Tracy Vaught and James Beard Award-winning Chef Hugo Ortega, URBE honors the heritage of Mexico City, Oaxaca, Jalisco, and Puebla. Whether you are searching for the best Houston Mexican food restaurants for a quick lunch or a lively dinner with frozen margaritas, our space invites you to slow down and savor the purest forms of authentic Mexican cuisine.
