I’m actually not a fan of Mexican food at all. (Ninfa is technically not Mexican but Tex-Mex though). But we had a delicious dinner – whole grilled fish and shrimp tacos. What I loved about tacos is that the tortilla was soft and not crispy – that way they don’t fall apart. Fish was deliciously cooked. Cocktails are cheap and well mixed. Place is huge.

The vipe & service were the hero of the night, but unfortunately, the food wasn’t up to our expectation.

Great Tex-Mex food! We went in the early evening, it was busy but service was fast. Chips and salsa included as an appetizer, which is always a nice bonus. Friendly and fast service. We got the chicken/steak combo fajitas and that was plenty of food for two adults. We left very full and felt like everything had a great flavor to it.

Some of the best Mexican food I have ever had! Our waiter was fantastic and we had a very large party. I would most definitely return.

Oh my goodness, I thought Ninfa’s would taste like every other “Mexican” restaurant in Texas but it was not. It was surprisingly so good! Upscale Mexican flavors. Not exactly authentic but definitely a great place to have a Tex-Mex experience!

I had an amazing dinner there. I can’t express enough how Jessica made our evening with all her knowledge about the menu. Her suggestions were on point and the way she cared about my vegetarian friend’s concerns really meant a lot! Looking forward to the next visit.
