CARLOS ABEDROP
OWNER + EXECUTIVE CHEF
For nearly a decade, Carlos has owned La Casa de Caballo, the most internationally popular steakhouse in Saltillo, Mexico. Encouraged by traveling Houstonians to bring the restaurant to the steak-loving city, he opened another location in Montrose in 2013. Two years later, Carlos relocated and renamed to Saltillo Mexican Kitchen. The new Mexican steakhouse is a sumptuous merger of top-tier mesquite-grilled beef and classic Northern Mexican dishes. Carlos' signature dish is the Tapa de Lomo - the entire cap portion of the whole ribeye (weighing in at over 4 pounds) sourced from the prestigious Allen Brothers in Chicago. Abedrop continues to run both restaurants, and you're sure to catch him in the kitchen and/or mingling with guests.
