Fuentes Cafe Downtown

We went on a Saturday and had an early lunch. It was not busy at all. The restaurant and bathrooms were very clean and the staff was fantastic.

The food was delicious and they took my allergies seriously.

My team and I went to Fuentes Café in San Angelo to celebrate a coworker’s birthday, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The service was excellent from start to finish, and Mr. Fuentes himself even stopped by our table to check on us. When we mentioned we were celebrating a birthday, the staff surprised us with a complimentary dessert and a thoughtful card for our coworker. It was such a kind and unexpected gesture that made the evening feel extra special. We left with full hearts (and full stomachs)! Highly recommend Fuentes Café for great food, wonderful service, and an atmosphere that truly makes you feel valued. Thank you, Tim Smith State Farm.

Delicious. Good and fast service

Love the atmosphere here and decorating also reasonable prices

I didn't care for what i had to eat but my husband and kids had really tasty meals.

Fantastic service! Our waitress was attentive but not overbearing. The food was hot, wonderful, and melt in your mouth delicious! As a San Angelo native, I will be back again and again!

Best peach margarita in town...

Always consistent and delicious.

"CELEBRATING ST. PATRICK'S DAY OUR WAY" Yesterday was St Patrick's Day, you know, the day everyone thinks they are green and goes out to drink Green Beer. Well, my Lovely Green Wife and I also went out to drink Green Beer. Now remember what I have always said; "Green is good for you". So, that means that Green Beer is also good for you. We both are decked out in our Green and off we went. Well, it not only happens to be St. Patrick's Day, but in San Angelo they are having a Pub & Grub Crawl with 15 different places to crawl too on the map that we have. We can do that - so off we went. We parked right in the middle of where they show five locations. We started our crawling and guess what, we only see three locations here. Two of the five are empty buildings. Anyway, we crawled across the street and enjoyed some Green Beers before having dinner. We walked down the street to get something to eat. No sense in crawling anymore, we didn't want to look stupid. On the corner is Fuentes Cafe Downtown for our early dinner. It's just before 4pm and this place has a lot of people here. I bet they thought it was the Pub & Grub Crawl and found out it was the day before - but who would do a thing like that. We were shown to a table and our Server, Darla, took our drink order. Two Green Beers to start. We looked over the menu while our Green Beers are being poured. Darla returned with their Warm Chips and Red Spicy Sauce for you to enjoy. We have been here before and we loved those chips and sauce. The Chips are thin and crispy and that sauce is just-right spicy. Our Green Beers arrived and they are a nice color of green, these really must be good for you. MMmmmmmmmm greenlyliciousness. Now it's time to order. My Wife is going with their "Guiso Burrito"; Large Warm Flour Tortilla stuffed with Guiso Stew Meat simmered in a seasoned sauce. Requested the burrito to be no topping of sauce. I am having "Grilled Fish Tacos" (three); Each has a strip of Grilled Fish Fillet, placed in soft Corn Tortilla with Guacamole, Cabbage & Pico de Gallo. Served with Rice & Refried Beans. While we waited we enjoying those Chips, Sauce and those Cold Green Beers. Soon our food arrived and my Wife's Guiso Burrito is Huge, with Mighty-Meaty-Chucks of Stew Meat inside. The presentation of my Fish Tacos is very impressive. They are all three stuffed to the top, with Pico de Gallo & Guac on a separate plate. Each taco also has it's own Lime Wedge and I squeezed them all dry on each taco, and topped them off even more with the Pico & Guac. The flavor of each one was Tacolicious with the fish being perfectly grilled. These are really, really gooooood. The Rice and Refried Beans were also very fresh and flavorful. I Love Tacos and these were the right choice for me. My Wife LoVeD her Guiso Burrito and said the meat was very Tendertastylicious and loving that sauce. She let me have a couple of bites and I totally agree, this was some good stuff. Fuentes Cafe Downtown was the right choice for us for our Grub and we didn't have to crawl here to enjoy some Mighty-Meaty chunks of Guiso Stew Meat and those Fresh Fish Tacos. Darla earned the "Dollar-Bow-Tie" Award for going 'above-n-beyond' the norm. She also wanted Nancy in the picture I took, so we obliged. When we left, we walked to our truck, not going to crawl when we don't have to. Just for the record, the map I copied does show 15 places for the Pub & Grub Crawl but two of those five shown on this street are permanently closed. So, it wasn't my fault, but one day I will learn how to read the small fine print showing the actual date. But on my behalf, in my youth I could of crawled to all fifteen locations, but I'm glad it was only one we crawled into. This was a very fun outing that we both enjoyed celebrating St. Patrick's Day. Love You Baby, Bunches & Pub&GrubMunches.

Our server was nice, checked on us often, and refilled our drinks promptly. The restaurant is lovely inside with lots of natural light. The salsa and chips were great. That is the extent of the good unfortunately. The queso was bad, it tasted like chicken broth with canned nacho cheese? My boyfriend enjoyed it though. I ordered the shredded chicken quesadilla. I’m not sure if it was canned chicken or rotten or something but it tasted truly awful. I scraped it all off and just ate the tortilla and cheese. Weeks later I still can’t forget that taste. Rice was good but dry. I thought the beans were alright - they definitely taste like canned refried beans. Boyfriend tried one taste and his stomach hurt for hours after. My boyfriend ordered the chicken calavasa, it was good but he thought it was bland. There was almost no seasoning and there seemed to be about 2 whole onions worth on the plate with a little chicken and zucchini on the side. The chicken in this dish was edible, unlike the chicken from the quesadilla. It needed more flavor but was not bad. I would not recommend this restaurant and would not come back.
