Just heard they may be closing today. Not sure if it's permanent or not. Don't eat there all that often but always seems busy.

Great location. Hope somebody else picks it up, if true.

They have been going downhill for a long time. Service is always terrible and the food had become mediocre. They were ok when their manager Jonathan was there, but it is severely lacking now. Hate to see them go if true, but can honestly say it has been a long time coming.

I was there a couple weeks ago. Not suprising at all.

By great, do you mean horrible? With the way the exits are set up, it makes it tough to get there. And if you miss it, you might a well go home and make a sandwich instead of looping back around.

It's on the bypass, that's all that matters.

I think that, to be very honest with you, I do believe that we should have rightly believed, but we certainly believe that certain issues are just settled.

Something will re-open there; the new hotel should drive some more traffic you would think. But then again, what do I know, I'm not in the restaurant business.

I ate there occasionally at the Harvey Rd location. Went there after they first moved to the Hwy 6 location, and I never went back again after that.

Surprised it made it this long with plenty of local Mexican food places that have much better food

We liked it when at Harvey, but service became horrible after move. We got there at 11am on a Sunday and they sat us.fairly Quickly. Then we waited... and waited... and waited... and waited. All while watching them.sit other people and waitstaff attending to people seated after us.

We never went back. Talked to manager about but he cared not one whit.

Really liked their crawfish enchiladas. But their menu was a bit pricey compared to others.

Really hoping we finally get that Gringo's in S. College Station that's been talked about for so long.

Make the drive to the original Ninfa's on Navigation St. near downtown Houston. It's worth it.

Owner has a restaurant on the river-walk in SA I believe. I think he took his eye off the ball here.....

Man I've got my hands full with the Cafe Eccell updated menu, decor and patio, the Burger Mojo project finally underway, and a top secret deal I can't mention. Thanks for the shout out though!

That is what happened to me. Manager didn't care either.

I thought their food was terrible. I wouldn't even eat it when I was in college, and that is saying something.

I'd much rather see the return of La Taqueria.

Went twice after the move: the quality went away after the move.

I waited tables there in 2004-2006, when Mario was still the owner and it was at the Harvey location.

No one in management cares about the product coming out to the customer, at the time there was little care about what the customer wanted. Food was marked up way expensive for what it is and Mario really didn't give a flip about much in regards to ownership and proper management.

He brought his son in in hopes of his son taking it over, let shortly after that to pursue corporate America... not sure how it went after that

Was there a few months ago for lunch. It was fairly empty at prime lunch hour and the food was cold when we got it. Service was terrible.

Yep. The original is really not like any of the others. Nothing like the original home of tacos al carbon. First time I ate there queso flameado was not on the menu. You had to ask.

Costa ... if not Fajita Rita's, how about La Taqueria?! I could really go for some of those veggie soft tacos!

Ninfa's has had awful management for years - as stated previously, management couldn't have cared less about the experience the customers had.

The service the two times I have been there in the last 3 years has been horrible. It was slow and they pretty much didn't care about putting any effort into waiting tables. It was like they thought they would get 20% regardless of what they do.

I only checked into this thread because there was chatter of a Fajita Ritas comeback.

So so so so many great memories there!

Good. That place sucked in both service and food quality.

Now if we can officially put Johnny Carino's on the clock...

I wish Tupinamba's would come down here from DFW. The owner is an Aggie and the food is awesome!
