Molina’s Cantina Menu Prices

by

One of the oldest (since 1941) family-run eateries in town serves Mexican fare in a lively setting.

Since 1941 Molina’s Cantina has played an integral role within the Houston dining community. More than 80 years after opening the first restaurant, Molina’s Cantina continues to serve its neighbors at three locations around the city. As the third generation to run the family’s restaurants, brothers Roberto, Ricardo and Raul, III, offer many of the original dishes alongside fresh menu updates over the years. Generations of families have enjoyed countless plates of Tex-Mex favorites, including the legendary Enchiladas de Tejas (cheese enchiladas with chili gravy), Jose’s Dip (creamy queso with spicy taco meat), chili con carne (an original recipe!) and the renowned margaritas, all while being welcomed as part of the extended Molina’s family.
