Just like his stand up act...this place sucks. Also just like his stand up act. it is just other peoples stuff redone for him. Unoriginal, unappatizing, unimpressive. You can get more authentic Mexican food at Taco Bell. Stick to ripping of other peoples material and get out of the food Biz because you suck at it, We take our mexican food serious down here in TX this is not some midwest city where any taco will do.

We went there tonight, but surprised to see that the Ninfa's sign was taken down. As we drove up the the Maggie Rita's sign was being put up. We were very surprised and disappointed since we have eaten at Ninfa's for years, but figured we would still give it a try. Sat down and noticed the tapas menu right off the bat. I wasn't too hungry to begin with so a tapas menu was perfect for my appetite. I ordered the crab cakes. When they put my dinner on the table, I immediately wanted to laugh. What was supposed to crab cakes, looked like burnt flat crust. The crab in them was stringy, and mostly non existent. The taste of the crab cakes were exactly what they looked like, burnt crust! My mother ordered chicken fajita tacos. I tasted her taco and the chicken was so dry it choked me. She said her rice and beans were good. The chicken in the tacos had fake grill marks also. The hot sauce was terrible, it was full of chunks of veggies. Not really what one expects when eating salsa. The green salsa was decent. I've got to say the iced tea was the best thing we tried. Never again will we go there. After salivating for Ninfa's and to settle for Maggie Rita's was a huge disappointment. The restaurant is trying the trendy tapas menu, but failed to even execute that. We should of settled for Pappasito's across the street.

We went to Maggie Rita's on a Sunday afternoon. The restaurant at first looks closed because to "Open" sign was off. We decided to try anyway. We sat at the bar. The server was nice, but there was definately no suggestive selling. She was an order-taker. This being our first time here, we really didn't know what was good. We ordered the Stuffed avocados for an appetizer. It was so bland that we seasoned it ourself and asked for some aoli to dip it in. Both of our dinners where just as bland. There was nothing special about the margaritas as well. Then we got the bill and realized we had spent $73. for blah food. I will not return.

This place SUCKS! Maggie Ritas at Kriby and Richmond. Quality of Food has gone done and prices gone up! GM JR Gonzalez is rude when you bring up how bad the service is. On Thursday, April 5, 2012 they were not playing music because a patron had a sleeping baby! It was like a morgue! How long will it be before they bite the dust like Serranos and Maggie Ritas in Galveston? They do not know what customer service is!

I was there last night and I have to say that everybody there was very friendly, service was fast and very professional, our food was at the table in no time and everything we ordered was delicious. We ordered beef fajitas and they were tender, juicy and you can tell they use top quality fajitas! Our chile con queso was great and the Margaritas are awsome, we will be coming back to our new favorite restaurant in Houston! Keep up the good job!
