Nice to meet you

Cenas means dinner.

It's the unhurried meal at the end of the day — the one where the plates get passed around, the stories run long, and nobody's watching the clock. We named two Houston kitchens after that feeling, and we've spent ten years (and survived a few near-misses) learning how to put it on every table.

Our story

The short version

A neighborhood Tex-Mex house, run by two brothers

We opened in 2015 as Aguirre's Tex-Mex — eight tables, a thousand square feet, a little three-foot bar we built ourselves, and a short menu we refused to rush.

Word got around fast: the sizzling fajitas, the queso blanco, the rice and beans people swore tasted homemade — because they are. We outgrew that first room, took a hurricane and a pandemic on the chin, and in 2024 opened a brand-new space on FM 529 with a new name and a whole new idea: Cenas Kitchen. Today there are two of them — one in Copperfield, one up Tomball Parkway. Same family. Same scratch recipes. A whole lot more to look at.

"We don't cut corners on the slow stuff. The tortillas, the salsas, the beans — that's the whole point."— Sam, co-owner

How we got here

From eight tables to two kitchens

2015Where it began

We open as Aguirre's Tex-Mex

One small room in Copperfield: eight tables, a thousand square feet, no patio, and a three-foot bar we built by hand. Scratch tortillas, a signature chili gravy, and a line out the door on weekends.

2016Room to sit

Our first patio — a Costco gazebo

We turned a backyard gazebo into a little patio. It wasn't much, but it was ours, and it meant a few more seats for a growing crowd.

2017The hard year

Hurricane Harvey

Harvey put Houston underwater — our neighbors, our guests, us. We dug out alongside the community and kept the kitchen open through it.

2018Kitchen №2

We take the risk and open in Tomball

A second location up Tomball Parkway. Same recipes, same hospitality, a new neighborhood to feed.

2020Survival mode

Ten-dollar fajitas off Facebook

When COVID shut the dining rooms, we sold fajitas for $10 a plate with a little local advertising, just to keep the lights on. The neighborhood showed up. We made it.

2022The long bet

We sign the lease on the old Fajita Willie's

A bigger room to relocate the original. The build took 14 months and nearly closed us down for good — but we held on.

2024A new idea

Cenas Kitchen is born

Years of guest feedback and a refusal to settle for "good enough" turned into a brand-new concept. We opened the Fajita Willie's space not just as a Tex-Mex spot, but as a dining room worth lingering in — and gave it a name that says exactly what we're about.

2025Both kitchens

Tomball gets the Cenas concept too

We brought the same Cenas Kitchen experience up to Tomball. Two kitchens, one welcome, one standard.

The new concept

A dining room worth lingering in

When we built Cenas Kitchen, we didn't want to feed you and flip the table. We wanted to give you an evening — a room with enough going on that the conversation writes itself.

So we filled it. Over 300 unique vintage and designer light fixtures, no two the same. A 1,000-pound bull, sourced out of France and forged in Morocco. Hand-carved wooden skulls from Indonesia. Frida Kahlo puzzles — a thousand pieces each — framed behind plexiglass. Chicago-style brick, and a single epoxy table made by hand in Turkey. None of it matches, and that's the point: every booth has its own thing to point at.

And the sweet send-off

When you're done, build your own ice cream cone on the way out. It's free, it's a little ridiculous, and it's still the first thing people tell their friends about.

Who's behind it

Two brothers, one kitchen

Cenas Kitchen is family-run, top to bottom — owned and operated by two brothers, Sam and Masood Sahragard.

Masood keeps the business honest: the books, the numbers, the parts of a restaurant nobody sees but everybody feels when they're done right. Sam runs the floors and the food — and, because he can't help himself, built the systems that keep both kitchens humming, from the way produce gets ordered to the way your plate gets from the line to your table.

Between the two of them, the goal hasn't really changed since 2015: cook it like you'd cook it for your own family, treat people like guests in your house, and always leave room at the table for one more.

What we stand for

The values behind the food

The stuff that never shows up on the menu — but shows up in everything.

"Treat the customer's wallet the way you treat your own."

Trust

Every plate has to be worth your hard-earned money. We build value on trust — and we earn it by creating a little "wow" every single time you sit down.

"The standard I set is the one we live by."

Culture

Attitude, attendance, the way we show up — we hold our own team to it before we ask anything of a guest. Bring solutions, not noise; respect each other's time; look the part. A good room starts behind the line.

"Healthy partnerships bear the best fruit."

Partnership

Honest, long-term relationships with top-quality vendors keep our ingredients safe, consistent, and affordable — and that goes straight to your table, every day.

"Support the people around us."

Community

From giving back to local schools to growing our own staff into leaders, we believe reinvesting in people is the only way to build something that lasts.

"Never satisfied. Always better than yesterday."

Growth

"Good enough" was never the goal. We get a little better every single day — growth is a choice, not chance — and most of what you'll love about Cenas came from guests telling us how.

"Building value on trust is our golden rule."

Five values, one promise: you should leave happier — and fuller — than you came.
