This place tasted like home on a dinner plate. The food was amazing, the chicken was moist and flavorful. And I had perhaps the best sweet bread of my life. Felt like bitting into a pillow! Definitely a place to try.
Real Mexican food,so clean,the chef goes to ur table to ask if the food is good and say bye to u when u leave
Really excellent food and definitely the best Mex-Mex I've had here in San Antonio. I am Tex-Mex myself but lived in and have traveled Mexico extensively and this place checks all the boxes. Great cafe de olla, chilaquiles, and enchiladas. Friendly and accomodating service. Not cheap, but reasonable prices. My girlfriend and I will definitely be back!
