    Looks like soap water....but should be horchata.
    Kelley N.

    Meh... Horchata was watered down, asked for a replacement, they brought lemonade which was also watered down. Lunch menu is decent for prices and food isn't horrible, but it's not great either. Mediocre at best. Very slow service, even though place wasn't busy at all. Seems more of a hang out and drink and watch games place rather than focused on quality of food.

    SPINACH ENCHILADAS
    John D.

    Coming home from a disappointing commute into Houston, I decided to have dinner here. Los Ramirez is among one of those places I frequently pass by, but have never set foot in so it was my first time swinging by. It was a Friday night so the vibe was lively. Lots of people were at the restaurant. I plopped down by a fully occupied table and ordered the spinach enchiladas, a water, and an unsweetened tea. The meal tasted decent, but the portions were so-so. Accompanying the large helping of enchiladas were smaller helpings of refried beans and Mexican rice. It took a couple of spoonfuls to finish both. I really wished I had more of each. As with any visit to a Mexican eatery, I judged the place's chips and salsa. Not bad except the chips weren't as plentiful. It's no wonder Los Ramirez has the rating that it does, but as it with any three stars I give, I believe another chance is possible.

    The food was good the service was also good. Tex mex style the menu had many options. I could eat a different meal every day for 6 months and probably still not try everything. The ambiance was typical of a Tex mex local restaurant. There seemed to be a lot of regulars that sit at the bar and all seemed to know each other. Everyone was very friendly. Will be coming back

    I've been going to this restaurant since it was first opened on El Dorado. It has become our comfort food location. My son came home from Baton Rouge and the first place he wanted to go was Los Ramirez. We love our servers Gerson and Eduardo. Always on point with service and they treat us like family. But today was a bit different. Not the food or the service. That's always great without a doubt. I noticed a service charge for 3 something. I questioned it to the cashiers and they said that the consumer now has to pay for the credit card services. Now the prices went up and that's ok. But usually the price increase offsets these fees. No one carries cash anymore so that means we have to pay to pay? That doesn't make sense at all. We go there for the service and the food. We pay for service and the food. We shouldn't have to pay to use the credit card services. No one likes these types of surprises. I hope you don't lose customers over this. During the COVID years the customers kept your doors open. I will think twice or more before I go back.

    Enchiladas
    Perry F.

    This place has some great enchiladas! I would say these enchiladas are the best bang for your buck in Houston that I've tried. The plate is huge and only $10. The chicken in the enchiladas is nicely season. The plate in the picture is one cheese enchilada, one chicken, and one beef. The chips and salsa are nothing special in my option. They are good, just not amazing. I find them to be overall standard. I did prefer the green sauce over the red. Service was good. The food does take some time to arrive on the table. About 10-20 minutes. This is always a good sign, though. If food comes out too fast, I question if italian microwaved. The restaurant is similar to a small banquet hall, just a big empty room with tables and some booths. I would say if you're going here, try the enchiladas. You won't be disappointed! I can't review anything else because when I go back, I order the same thing.

    Our family loves Los Ramirez. We have been coming here for a long time. The service is always good. The place is always full of life and great smelling food. The decor is colorful. We come here at least twice a month but more of family is in town. The breakfast is always good, lunch is good, dinner is good. We are always happy when we come here. We have been here so much I have tons of food pics that I will post. But our menu favorites are the menudo, the caldo de res, the pozole. Also the shrimp poblano, asado de puerco, enchiladas, bistec ranchero, the taco plate , i could go on. The margaritas are tasty , the micheladas are good too. We definitely recommend coming here by yourself or with family.

    Try this place when you are in town!! affordable and plenty of food !! Staff are super nice !!

    Kimberly L.

    This is the new location but with the same great food and service. It's a lot bigger space and doesn't feel like it's going to fall down on top of you. The prices went up, but I'm not surprised as I'm sure they pay more for the bigger building. We don't live in Clear Lake so we don't come here as often but when we do it's always great food and good service!

Met the ladies here to celebrate, & break bread…read more Thank you Jamila for selecting this original location of the Original Ninfas, to host, (our last supper, before your relocation from Houston to Florida.). A place I grew up in as a little girl in Beaumont but never have I've visit this "original" location. Stepping in to this spot felt like a restaurant in the country of Mexico. I ordered the El Henry. I absolutely loved my dish, only thing I would've chance was the cheese enchilada definitely would've swap for a chicken or beef one, or maybe even a flaunta. I really like the Mexican rice, it had little potatoes and carrots in it. Some of the best Mexican yellow rice I've had. They offer a cinco de mayo drink special. The only thing that seem to make it special was the drinks apparently were limited edition menu items. Nothing was special about the prices. The regular menu drinks were a dollar(s) less. The margarita I ordered first was peach coconut. I didn't taste the coconut at all. I swap for the peach strawberry ($14 or 15) which was great, sweet& strong. One did me just right. You get to select up to two flavors for additional $2 (for both verse each, that's a plus. Not worded on menu). If you select a third flavor an additional $2 would be added ($4 in total) I appreciate separate tickets provided after confirmation and no additional gratuity automatically added, which he got tip equally the same or more. When asked about the "empty" patio that was available, he informed us that the entire deck was reserved. Upon departing I noticed from the parking lot individual tables, of separate parties were occupying only 3 tables. It was 8 of us sitting at 2 tables. Which the table was pushed up against the wall, and one side was inaccessible, which took away spacing. Service was lovely space was really tight. Good thing some of the ladies didn't order full meals. Definitely wouldn't have been able to fit every plate.

The flavor of our steak fajitas was excellent, after dinner Ninfa's offers a free shuttle bus to the baseball park. They drop you off and pick you up after the game. Unfortunately, Houston did not win, but we thoroughly enjoyed the meal before the game. If you're looking for traditional Mexican dinner, do not miss Ninfa's.

For drinks, my husband and our friends tried some of the margaritas from their large and unique margaritas menu, as well as their hibiscus agua fresca. All of the drinks were very pretty and it seemed like everyone enjoyed them, too! We started with their chips and salsa trio, which we all really liked. The chips were on the thicker side, but were crispy and not stale or chewy at all. Each of the salsas were quite different, and two were served warm, which we really liked! For the price, I'd consider getting the chips and salsa as a non-negotiable, honestly. For entrees, we tried the enchilada rojas, chilaquiles verde w/ chicken and beef, birria barbacoa ramen, and huaraches. My husband felt like his ramen could have included more meat, but aside from that everyone really enjoyed what they ordered. The highlight was probably the desserts, though! We got a quatro leches and two ordered of their giant and amazing churros. Both were incredibly tasty and reason enough to return for another visit in the future!

The "queso" w/carne seemed to be out of a can-it was orange & didn't have the consistency of real cheese- wasn't really cheese & was disgusting. It was $9.99.

It definitely is enough for 2. The meat melts in your mouth. EVERYTHING is better quality than here. Teo charged $1.50 for perhaps 4 or 5 slices of lime to make the happy hour margaritas made with a gross mix drinkable. That's outrageous. It reminds me that I had stopped going long ago when they charged extra for onions on enchiladas. Come on. You don't charge extra for chopped onions! I have never been to another restaurant that does so. Some even provide carmelized grilled onions gratis. I'm convinced that a $15. YUMMY mango margarita at Pappasitos would have given us the same buzz & tasted better than 8 happy hour margaritas here. I used to love the in house made flour tortillas at Teo. Tonight they were tough & uneventful. We arrived on a week night when they were not busy. Neither of the salsas were as good as they used to be.The water pitcher didn't even have ice when they refilled the water. I have absolutely no desire to return. Why would I?

The restaurant is actually quite tiny, and I found it to be on the warm/muggy side, and it wasn't even that hot outside. Also, from a decor perspective, they could certainly use a "freshening up" though perhaps a newer larger location would be a better idea. Still, based solely on the food, my foodie friends and I agreed we would absolutely be back. Their Bibendum nod is well-deserved!

I prefer traditional homemade Mexican food but here we are. (Oh I googled and suggested this place lol) Went in for a team lunch on a Friday. Coworker's birthday lunch and she wanted Mexican. Party of 9 and we were seated promptly. They have a lunch menu and a happy hour as well as a full menu and full bar. The interior was nicely decorated. And open. There is bar seating and patio seating as well. Our waitress was Aisha and she was amazing. Friendly, helpful and patient. And able handle our large group and a few more tables with a smile. There were a variety of options. Salads, fajitas, nachos, enchiladas, etc. Also complimentary chips and salsa. My Order: chicken tortilla soup, lunch fajitas combo - chicken and beef. Chicken tortilla soup (3.5/5) - it was a bit salty for me but I am not a salt person so most things are salty to me; everyone else said it was tasty, there were tons of shredded chicken, avocado pieces, tortilla strips Fajitas - combo (4/5) - chicken was seasoned well and the beef (medium rare) was perfection and so tender and juicy, mexican rice was fluffy, and normally I would pass on the beans and get extra rice but my coworker suggested the charro beans and wow, that was a win - the seasoning was great, there were chunks of meat and the texture was nice, the only thing that could have been done better is the flour tortillas - they over-charred them making them too crispy and left them with a burnt taste. A couple of people got the elote salad and raved about it. So that will be a next time try. Def will be back. Everyone enjoyed their meals and some even ordered food to go. Would recommend.
