The very friendly waitress brought us chips twice while we waited for our food. We ordered melted cheese while we waited for the food, and it arrived along with the main course. I ordered a Virgin mango margarita, but it tasted like it was spoiled or had been made a long time ago, like it was rancid. The food was just okay; the pork carnitas michoacan had little flavor. The beef costilla plate tasted better. It was an average experience for a first and only visit. I was hoping to be impressed, but that didn't happen.

Service: good, atmosphere: festive and very crowded, perhaps it’s a tourist trap. Not a connoisseur of Mexican food. We had a party of six, steak was over cooked and chewy, rice was good, everything else was pretty much the same, nothing special. Do not!!! Do not!!! get the Cabrito, the worst I ever had.

This Mexican restaurant in Farmers Market Square in San Antonio is absolutely fantastic! The food is amazing, and as a vegetarian I really appreciated the number of options available. They’re truly pet-friendly, their michelada was great, and the hospitality was wonderful. They even took a lovely photo of me and my family and gave us a free printout. Highly recommend!

Staff was great and welcoming, chatty and fun. We sat at the bar & I had the watermelon rita, hubbs had the pomegranate rita, we tried both frozen and on the rocks... rocks was alcohol strong. Ordered off the lunch menu and both of us got the mixed fajita plate, flour tortillas and queso flameado. My only complaint is the fajita may need more fajita seasoning. Rice/beans/tortillas were all flavorful!! Great art and decorations, love the location 🥰

This is a long standing Mexican cuisine restaurant. The hostess and server were very nice attentive. The margaritas are okay. The oysters were okay as well. The mains were just okay hot but just not very flavorful. Considering the amount of similar restaurants in the San Antonio I would try other restaurants in the future.
