The Original Ninfa's Uptown

It was actually quite good. I have been to this place before and the food wasn't that great. This time it was very good. I had the 'Oaxacan-Style' pork tamales which were tasty. The chips were very fresh and quite crisp. Both salsas were good. The service was very good as well. This place is easy to find, but parking is very limited.

I read a bunch of not quite great reviews so was nervous to try out this new spot. However, we decided to give it a shot, and I’m glad we did! We had a reservation for 7:30, and were sat at 7:28. We received chips and salsa about 3 minutes after sitting. And a few minutes later were visited by our waiter who took our drink order. He brought our drinks quickly, with waters all around. He followed up twice to take our order and our food came out in expected time. We were offered dessert, which we ordered, at which point our waiter offered to split our check 3 ways (bonus!). Overall, we had a great experience. Giving it 4 stars just because I think there’s a bit better TexMex food around town. No doubt though we will be back!

Great to have the hometown original (back) in this area of town, however, let's just say it out loud. It's not the original. Sure they tried hard - and that's not fair because it's not possible - so there's that. Nonetheless the food was great, atmosphere was upscale, and the margaritas were as expected. Great! We came on a weekday, so there was no wait. In addition, valet parking will be needed as there is limited parking in the area. Happy eating!

Thank goodness they brought back the original 'off-the-menu' item, chicken fajitas a la Berry. An absolutely wonderful execution and this location is fantastic! The staff is great and the decor is beautiful. I highly recommend this place for very good Mexican food.
