Houston, TX | El Tiempo Cantina
The Laurenzo family’s El Tiempo Cantina is synonymous with authentic Tex-Mex cuisine in Houston, Texas. The story begins with “Mama” Ninfa Laurenzo, a widowed mother of five who, in 1973, introduced fajitas as we know and love them in her new restaurant. Ninfa’s original restaurant grew into a multi-million dollar empire before financial struggles forced its closure in the 1990s. Refusing to let their culinary traditions fade, Ninfa’s son, Roland Laurenzo launched El Tiempo Cantina in 1998. El Tiempo brought back the same bold flavors, impeccable hospitality, and, of course, the legendary margaritas and sizzling fajitas that have become Tex-Mex staples. Today, El Tiempo Cantina remains a Houston classic where every guest is treated like family. For more information, visit eltiempocantina.com or click the button below.
