I was once at the original one in Dallas , early 80s the chef was on the old show Master chefs doing chilli rellenos ,,soon after she left and it went down from there.

Someone said Houston was original not sure about that, but the show was done in Dallas. On Mockingbird lane. Just a name,now.


Yea, the original Ninfa's restaurant is in Houston...I'm not sure what you're even talking about. LINK

Maybe you're talking about Ninnfa's

No, for Tex-Mex I really enjoy it.

I don't go there for "authentic" mexican. It's a great place to go for dinner on a friday night.

People that claim that places like La Tiendita are better have a point but no one is going to hang out at any of the taquerias in town. Period. You go to these places for drinks and atmosphere with food usually being third.


The food last on the list of why you pick a mexican restaurant to eat at? Wow

This just sounds like people that never eat Mexican food and may go once or twice a year to Superior for someones birthday and get shitty drunk and be loud as shite

He has about thirty five responses saying the exact same thing in this thread basically imploring him to improve the place but I'll give him a heads up
