Tex-Mex may be looked upon as bastardized Mexican food outside of Texas, but in these parts, the cuisine that gave birth to fajitas is king. Look no further than the Tex-Mex restaurants in every nook and cranny of the city as proof. But not all are created equal. Thrillist Houston assembled a list of places in town to serve the best Tex-Mex. A few may be debatable, but there's no denying Ninfa’s on Navigation and El Tiempo are unparalleled.
