    I had a badass fried avacodo stuffed with fajita chicken and cheese at Cafe Adobe on I-10. Never heard of them before.

    I got so upset one time when I went out to eat with family (about 8 of us) and they decided to order the fajita explosion for the whole table. I like fajitas, but I don't go to a mexican restaurant to eat fajitas.

    I've been to Mely's (one "L") once or twice. It's good, but more expensive than Estabans. Plus, I know so many people in League City that I always run into someone I know.

    It's on the southbound 59 South Feeder between Shepherd and Kirby. I wasn't impressed by the fajitas, but the enchiladas are awesome.

    Thanks.

    They also just recently opened a second in Sugar Land northbound on 59 just north of Hwy 6.

    I don't like lupe tortillas. Not becausee of their food, but because it is basically a day care center. My friends with children like to go there because the kids can just run all over the place--but they got a babysitter and they asked us to meet them for dinner there and I couldn't understand the logic in that.

    Bottem line, great if you have kids, not a place for people who want to have an actual conversation

    I love Lupe's. I go there with my brother whenever we're in Houston. In Austin, I like a place called A La Carrera (Balcones Woods & 183). They have great enchiladas and quesadillas. Can't argue with a fantastic mexican martini from Trudy's either...

    I'd put the Original Ninfas top 3 as well. For vegetarians, Mammasitas on Nasa Rd. 1 in Webster is great, and the wait isn't that long. Pappasitos is good but its really noisy and the wait can be ridiculous.
