Since 1941 Molina’s Cantina has been an integral part of the Houston dining community. Eighty years after opening the first restaurant, Houston’s oldest family-owned and -operated Tex-Mex restaurants continue to serve their neighbors, with locations at 7901 Westheimer, 3801 Bellaire Blvd. As the third generation to run the family’s restaurants, brothers Roberto, Ricardo and Raul, III, offer many o

f the original scratch-made dishes alongside fresh additions and updates over the years. Keeping in step with patrons’ evolving tastes while maintaining an inherent charm and warm hospitality, the restaurant remains a Houston institution. Generations of families have enjoyed countless plates of Tex-Mex favorites, including the legendary Enchiladas de Tejas (cheese enchiladas with chili gravy), combination plates, Jose’s Dip (creamy queso with spicy taco meat), chili con carne (an original recipe!) and renowned margaritas. The restaurants have seen national recognition by The New York Times, Southern Living, Food Network, ABC-TV, Cook’s Country for America’s Test Kitchen (PBS), The Splendid Table (American Public Media), Zagat, Men’s Health and Thrillist.

Celebrate our ongoing 85th anniversary fun with half priced Berly’s Burritos this Tuesday, July 14 from 5-7pm! One night, long time guest Jim Berly (and his missus!) wanted to try something different, so he asked his waiter for a burrito filled with fajita meat, smothered with chili con carne and topped with queso... and a legend was born!

We still have the pleasure of seeing the Berly’s often, and we’re going on 60 or so years of them being regulars. How lucky are we to be able to say that!! Cheers ❤️

On Thursday, July 9, we are doing half priced C.W. Specials through lunch from 11 a.m. - 1 p.m. Keep an eye out weekly for more fun specials and deals like this as we continue celebrating our big 85th anniversary!

Legend has it that Roberto Molina and his childhood friend Chris Wilson found themselves in the kitchen after a night on the town. Hungry and inspired, Wilson makes a combo plate for him and his buddy that includes a taco al carbon, cheese enchilada, rice, beans, pico de gallo and guacamole. It becomes a customer and a staff favorite and still is one to this day!
