We were in town for the Houston Marathon and allowed us the great opportunity to revisit this place since they opened in 1973! I was about 5 or 6 yrs old when we hit this place during a family trip to Astroworld. It was so good, we made sure to go here every time we were in Houston. Fast forward till now and the food is as great as it was almost 50yrs ago. The wait was a bit long which is normal for a great restaurant, the food was awesome but a little pricey, and our waiter didn't check on us much at all as we had to ask other waiters to get what we needed, which is why it's getting 4 of 5 stars. We had a med size table(6 people with 2 marathon runners celebrating their finish) and our waiter disappeared after getting our order and only appeared to give us the check:( Anyways, we still highly recommend going here if you are coming through Houston or live there.

My boss & coworker took me here for a birthday lunch & the fajita burger was raved about so much that I had to try it. I will say, it was good, but, I wasn’t blown away. Everything as a whole meal was good! I REALLY loved the pickled carrots though. Overall, the menu looked great & I’d definitely return to try out other menu options as well as the margaritas! The lunch rush is absolutely crazy but the staff handles it very well! No complaints here!

Excellent food and service. This location can be super busy, especially on Astros game days. Love the fact they have a free shuttle if you eat there before the game. Fajitas were good, wouldn’t say better than some of the great fajitas Houston offers. Margaritas were on point and very specialized options were on the menu. You have to try it out!

This place is so good. The service was great--we had a group of seven and we never ran out of chips and dip and our drinks were always full. The food was delicious. I got enchiladas and at least three of our table got the fajita burger and absolutely loved it. The atmosphere is nice, and the food is quality.

We really enjoyed the appetizer we ordered. It was so amazing. It had calamari, and the breading on it was so good. We had a plate that had shrimp, fajita, carnitas, and ribs. The flavor was okay nothing special about the flavor. After the flavor of the appetizer I was expecting more. The service we received was not the best. We had to keep calling someone over instead of them coming to check on us. It was the first time we ate here, and we will not be returning.

Cute little restaurant with good food. We had the enchiladas, fajitas, stuffed peppers, and street tacos. I would go back for sure. The waiter was diligent. They have outdoor seating as well for when it’s not too hot.

Excellent authentic Mexican restaurant! My friend recommended that we stop here for dinner and I'm glad we did. The atmosphere and hospitality were amazing, the food was delicious, and the portions were perfect.
I'll definitely save this restaurant for the next time that I'm in Houston.

Driver was hyping this place up big-time on the way here, and for good reason. Everything here was top-notch, even if somewhat expensive. Especially the fajita burger, an absolute banger that one is.
Even the free chips and sauce are incredible, and the service is great - zero complaints whatsoever.

Came for the food, stayed for the margaritas. My husband and I were only in town one night and got a last minute reservation at Ninfa’s. Our server was nice and had great drink recommendations. Every margarita we ordered was a 10/10 (especially the mango habanero). Unfortunately, the cheese enchiladas and sopapillas I ordered weren’t very good. The enchiladas were thin, flat and greasy, and the sopapillas were oversized and bland. Not sure if I would come back for dinner but definitely would come back for happy hour.

The Navigation is the best margarita we've had in Houston! The food is delicious and the atmosphere is upbeat and fun. The service was fast and friendly. We are looking forward to going back!
