Ninfa's is my all time favorite restaurant. The food and service are amazing. Leftovers taste just as good as when served at the table. Ninfa's never disappoints.

I visited Ninfa’s on Saturday April 20 after a tour of Waco. We stopped at Ninfa’s as recommended by tour guide. Had a nice meal and great service. I walked off and left my full length all weather rain coat in the booth. It had been a very rainy day but had cleared. I called back within the hour to check for my coat. The attended said she did not see it but would check more and call back. I haven’t heard from them. Someone had to clean the booth before the next guest. I am very disappointed in their response.

Food was good. Had tacos with beans and rice. The green salsa they serve is really nice....just enough spicy but not hot. Wait staff was polite and attentive. Parking can be a challenge during peak times.

My group and I made a pit stop here for dinner. I don’t understand what the hype is about. The salsa was grossly tomatoe-y and had a weird spice to it that wasn’t pleasant. It almost tasted like liquid smoke and crushed tomatoes without any jalapenos or cilantro or the traditional flavors of a hot salsa. The cream dip was confusing as well. It felt like sour cream and a little bit of cilantro-like an alternate universe version of Chuy’s jalapeno lime ranch that was very underwhelming. I didn’t understand the flavor profile of it at all. I got a fajita chicken quesadilla that was sorely disappointing. There was nothing fajita about the chicken. It was just shredded rotisserie chicken with a severe lack of flavor. I could also tell my plate had been sitting out for a while because my dollop of guacamole was browned. It was just an ugly and distasteful plate. My mom enjoyed her beef empanada plate and my sister said her brisket quesadilla was good. Our waitress was very pleasant and attentive. The location and college crowd is what makes this place popular.

We sat on the patio, it was wonderful with the windows open while it rained. The food was really good- tamales, quesadillas, empanadas, cheese enchilada.Our waitress was great, explained menu items as this was our first time.

Sometimes you just need a cool shady place to munch on some chips and salsa and drink an icy beverage: this is the place! The family was tired from exploring so we popped into Ninfa's for lunch. There was something for everyone, even my very selective eater. Highly recommend for families.
