Nearly as ubiquitous on local menus as the cheeseburger, the fajita is loved my most Houstonians, especially in its original beef form (and the one makes sense grammatically in Spanish). It was Ninfa’s on Navigation where the fajita grew to fame, after all. Served with warmed flour tortillas, pico de gallo, sautéed onion and bell peppers, shredded cheese, sour cream and a dollop of guacamole, tender, marinated – or sometimes just seasoned – skirt steak that’s been grilled and sliced and accompanied with beans and tomato-tinted rice is comfort food to countless locals.
