Best Fajitas on planet earth. Period. End of Story. Stop looking. You've found Nirvana.
We are born and raised in Texas. We've traveled from El Paso to Dallas to Amarillo to Brownsville. No where serves them like El Tiempo, no where. Perfectly grilled and served on their own hibachi like grill is awesome. Piling on the meats and veggies is awesome. Adding a smokey delicious garlic butter sauce to the side to dunk said meats and veggies into is absolute bliss.
