Description

Sucker punches aren't thrown at this branch of the 40-year-old Mexican food palace established in Houston by the eponymous former wrestler. While each location is architecturally distinct, they all shine with warmth and stylish comfort that translate to original homemade recipes of Anaya's wife Carolina. Chefs Jason Gould and Ramon Morales have played with some of the recipes, creating hits like lobster enchiladas in chardonnay cream sauce and lump crab nachos. If you want the quintessential Cyclone Anaya's dish, order the carne asada a la Tampiqueña. On Fridays during lunch, ask for the chef's fish of the day.
