As Molina's Cantina in Houston celebrates 83 years in business, co-owner Ricardo Molina, the grandson of the restaurant's founders, looks back on its humble beginnings, their close relationship with President George H.W. and Barbara Bush, and the rich history that helped them become known as the 'Pioneers of Tex Mex.

For Ricardo and his brothers, following in their father’s footsteps -- and their grandparents’ footsteps -- was second nature. Now, 83 years later, Molina’s Cantina has cemented its status in the Houston food scene as a tried and true staple. The Molina family is also frequently credited with being the ‘Pioneers of Tex Mex,’ something Ricardo says is a testament to their repeat customers.
