How Mama Ninfa Brought Fajitas to Houston — And the World | Eater Houston

"Opened in 1998 by a member of the founding family, this restaurant group has carried forward the family’s Tex‑Mex legacy across more than a dozen Texas locations. It introduced the city to the anafre, a tabletop Mexican grill, and serves parrillada prepared on that grill, emphasizing communal, grill-centered dining that echoes the wood-fired traditions and flavors that made the family’s original restaurant influential." - Brittany Britto Garley
