The 17 Best Restaurants In Houston's East End - Houston - The Infatuation

"There are two Ninfa’s locations in Houston, but the Original Ninfa’s On Navigation, which has been around since 1973, is a cornerstone of the East End. Since Mama Ninfa is credited as “the inventor of the fajita.” you’ll see staff carrying enormous trays full of juicy skirt steak fajitas like they’re the only thing on the menu. This spot is about five minutes from Minute Maid Park, so expect to see hoards of Astro fans on game day bonding over pitchers of Ninfaritas. And while you might not be able to hear the music playing over the bustle of the restaurant, you can still do a good bit of people watching while you cross your fingers and hope the next incoming tray of flaming fajitas has your name on it." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
