The watermelon agua fresco is DELICIOUS. Juan V. is always there to refill your nacho bowl, water and soda ! Get the queso flameado & fajita burger !

Don't miss: Queso flameado ; fajitas with Durango topping of bacon , tomato and jalapeños ; Fajita Burger ; the Navigation Margarita with Espolon Blanco tequila , fresh lime and Cointreau . Read more

This place was delicious! Absolutely loved my chicken fajitas & the queso . 100% would come back next time in Houston. Loved the wide variety of margs on the menu too (and got strawberry basil )!

Always serving the most wonderful & fresh Mexican food the famous original Ninfa's never lets their fans down! The meat is always seasoned perfectly & the salsa & guacamole are deliciously fresh! Read more

A Htown bucket list spot you have to try. Houston tex-mex was invented here. Mama Ninfa's home expanded into the one of the best in Houston.

Best fajita in town . Great service. Come here!

The Roasted Oysters with Bacon , Jumbo Lump Crab , and Mezcal Cream Sauce are stupid delicious

The original Houston Tex-Mex. Try the queso flameado , enchiladas del mar, tacos al carbon .

The "original" Ninfa's has drastically changed (worse) since Mama Ninfa sold the chain & passed away. El Tiempo (owned by Ninfa's son) is better, with the newest location right across the street.

An excellent example of some of the best Tex Mex , anywhere. Hands down. Deadly margaritas , excellent queso . It's always quite busy but a must try.

Tres Leches ! So stupid good! A classically delicious take, but topped with marshmallow fluff and lightly torched. I would share a picture, but it was halfway down my throat before I had the thought.

Where the national fajita craze started with their Tacos al Carbon , serving authentic Tex-Mex cuisine. Don't miss watching as they hand-make the tortillas !

Ninfa's on Navigation just can't be beat. It's a great spot for Tacos , Enchiladas and Fajitas .....and then there are the margaritas !

Sangria Margaritas are awesome! I have never had anything that isn't good here. Our favorites are the Tacos Al Carbon with Fajita Beef and the Chimichanga with Fajita Beef !

Few restaurants live up to the hype surrounding them. Ninfa's on Navigation is every bit as good as people say it is. No matter what you choose, it will be delicious.

They know what they are doing, and they have been doing it for a long time. Try the CBD marg . Take a shuttle to Minute Maid Park on game day.

Every head in the restaurant follows every single order of tacos al carbon , and you want them turned in your direction. Pile slices of beef into tender tortillas and taste Houston Tex-Mex. Read more

Best Mexican food in Texas. Amazing Margs . Fresh, handmade tortillas will blow your mind. The aguacate-tomatillo house salsa is unmatched by any house salsa I've ever eaten.

The best pulpo (octopus ) I've tasted. Beats all I've had throughout my years in Los Angeles.

Loved it! Just loved it! Definitely worth a visit if you are in town and looking for Tex-Mex goodness!

The shrimp and grits on the Sunday brunch menu are absolutely amazing and the farmer’s market outside is just perfect!!

This is hands down some of the best texmex i have ever had. Ritas are ok, lots of alcohol not much flavor. The queso flameado and the tejas platter were awesome.

Inside track : Check the chef 's monthly specials for highlights like spinach enchiladas rojas and such interesting house-made ice creams as a recent mole flavor. Read more

Claims to have invented fajitas in 1973. Ninfa's calls them tacos al carbon , made from skirt steak , which in Spanish is fajita .

Tex-Mex gold, people. From the margaritas to the fajitas , this original is the standard by which all other Tex-Mex restaurants are measured. [Eater 38 Member]

Went with my mom & we got 2 servings of the fajitas after the waitress told us one would be too small to share....amazing food, huge quantities. I suggest splitting an order!

Everything I had here was fantastic but special attention to the guacamole as it was perfect. Really can't go wrong here.

Sangria sangria sangria ! Puffy chips and queso , amazing tortillas , I got the enchiladas suizas which were good too.

Get the queso appetizer - it's unlike any other queso you've had

Try the Albondigas En Salsa - Spicy hot. Deep beef and pork flavor. Totally amazing.

The jalapeño margaritas are some of my favorite anywhere. I've never had a problem with the food or service but I've heard it can be spotty.

Ask for the carrots - they are the wonderful escabeche-style carrots that you can, and should, put on everything. Eat your veggies !

The margaritas , queso , and tacos are out of the world!! ????

Best Mexican food I've had to date! Grilled skirt steak fajitas and the mango strawberry margarita is omg!! I'm flying right now lol

If you're in Houston and you want to try Mexican food , this is the place. Fresh tortillas made at the moment

Fajita combo, plus Guac and shrimp , were on point!

The best fajitas and guacamole ever. Try the quail and chicken fajitas ... Good choice.

The seafood enchiladas (del mar) are delicious!! Friendly and attentive service . I will definitely will be coming back .

Hands down one of the best mex in Houston! Aways a good crowd and never a long wait !

SO GOOD! The enchiladas suissas are my favorite. Do yourself a favor and don't even bother going to the other Ninfa's locations; they don't even compare.

Amazing texmex - easily some of the best in Houston! Great for large groups or birthday parties.

The Original Ninfa's on Navigation at 23 minutes drive to the east of Mills Dental Group Houston

Diablo tacos are really good, but not as spicy as name entails. Green sauce is great. Complimentary valet available.

Don’t leave without sampling the frozen Ninfarita, the stout and limey house margarita based on a 30-year-old recipe. Read more

Massive delicious tex-mex platters and unlimited fresh made tortilla chips !

This is Better than ALL other locations. Others sold name this is run by the original owners! Authentic !

I was worried this wouldn't live up to the hype, but it's still amazing.

Tres leeches !!!!! If you haven't tried it your seriously missing out . BEST tres leeches I've EVER had.

No matter what, this place never disappoints on flavor and food. It's a must try for anyone new to Houston.
