    HUEVOS RANCHEROS
    Ermillo E.

    Very small and a lil crowded it the worst I can say about this restaurant. Because the food was delicious and hot. The amount of spice they add to there meals was perfect and full of flavor. If you're looking for a Mexican restaurant that's has all your favorite dishes you definitely need to come here it won't miss!

    Cheese enchilada with double rice and no salad, My favorite

    This is my go to Mexican restaurant SO BOMB!!!! Everything I've eaten here is amazing & that's that I haven't even tried everything, I'm stuck on the cheese enchiladas, THE BEST IN TOWN.. hands down! I've eaten cheese enchiladas at several restaurants & no one tops Blue Moons. The sweet tea is on point along with the lemonade. The tortillas are on point, the menudo is just right! I definitely recommend this place and the ladies here are super welcoming and sweet! I also love the play list everytime it's on point I'll never stop coming here no matter how far I live.

    Beautiful caldo!

    Mexican food made with love! Always consistently great! Staff are always friendly. No sense going anywhere else for Mexican food.

    Talk about authentic! This little place packs a huge punch when it comes to food and service. As soon as you walk in you're greeted with a huge, "hello and welcome", followed by a very attentive staff and great/fresh food. Great place to bring family and fri

    Menudo con pata, picoso-it'll put pelo en tu pecho!

    Another down home Mexican restaurant in the heart of the Southside. I had the huevos rancheros, with carne guisada, beans, and papitas. All delicious, perfectly prepared, the guisada was perfection with a dash of salt. The potatoes didn't look like much, but expertly fried and seasoned-so tasty. The flour tortillas were heavenly, soft, buttery, and magnificent. The corn tortillas were good but the flour was so much better. The menudo with pata was good, but very spicy and not for the faint of heart-it didn't help I added even more salsa picoso. The pata here didn't really add much, it needed more time in the pot. But in totality -food quality and friendly service-outstanding!

    Chicharrones en salsa & one carne guisada breakfast tacos...

    This is the quintessential little restaurant that could/can/will be doing delicious Tex-Mex and I'm here for it. Nestled on the Southside of SA, in the shadow of Burbank HS & the SAISD Sports Complex, you have arrived into a family run, neighborhood staple (atleast 30+ years) and by looks & tastes of it-they're not done yet. I stopped in for breakfast tacos recently and was not disappointed. I ordered the chicharrones en salsa plus a carne guisada (my table-mates swore by it) and they were delicious. Homemade tortillas were delicious, fluffy AND fresh- Everything was freshly made. They had two salsas-the constant green salsa and then there was their signature chile arbol red sauce-it tasted good and the heat snuck up on you...NICE! Please note that this restaurant is quite small, maybe 15 tables max, but people were willing to wait or opted to go, so be patient. Everyone was warmly welcomed (and they actually made eye contact and meant it!) and the service was efficient & friendly. Dally (ample portions) specials-both breakfast & lunch just look for their whiteboard by the register. I'll be back as soon as I can. TY Blue Moon!

    This restaurant came highly recommended and it did not disappoint. On our drive from Ft. Worth to San Antonio, we discovered that the restaurant closes at 3 pm so we booked it there. When we got there, they were closing early at 2:30. We asked for an alternative place for food, and instead they said don't worry about it and fixed us 2 plates of the day's special. Carne guisado, beans, and rice. It was hands down one of the best meals I've eaten. Blue Moon has been around for 50 years and it's not hard to see why. The service was friendly, the food amazing, and hospitality off the charts. Stop in if you're in town!

    TEX-MEX STYLE OMELETTE PLATE.

    Delicious! Service was amazing. I really enjoyed the lemonade. I used all the salsas including the one they give you for your chips and honestly might have been my favorite one.

    Great food and value. Tried the chicken puffy tacos and they turned out great - actually stayed together. Fresh salsa and good tortillas!

From the moment I walked in, I could tell this place was special. The atmosphere is beautiful, upscale, and inviting. The architecture and design throughout the restaurant are absolutely stunning. Even the restrooms were impressive and reflected the same attention to detail found throughout the entire establishment. The food was outstanding. Every dish was beautifully presented and packed with flavor. This isn't your typical restaurant experience--the menu is creative, unique, and offers something different. You can tell a lot of thought goes into both the preparation and presentation of every plate. What really made the experience unforgettable, though, was the customer service. My waitress, Kreizon, was absolutely amazing. She was friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely made me feel welcome throughout my visit. Great service can make a good meal even better, and she definitely elevated the entire experience. The outdoor dining area is also beautiful and creates a relaxing atmosphere that's perfect for enjoying a meal and taking in the surroundings. If you're looking for a restaurant that offers exceptional food, incredible ambiance, unique architecture, and top-notch customer service, Domingo is a must-visit. This is more than just dinner--it's an experience. Highly recommended, and I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in San Antonio.

Electronic dance music pulsed quietly in the background. The toilets were all individual unisex stalls that were classy, mine had run out of hand towels. Also, the entire restaurant is very dimly lit. I had to use the flashlight on my phone to read the menu, but I have poor eyesight so there's that, but it might explain the quality of the photos I took. The Paloma drink was amazing. It had a great spicy zing in the back of the throat after every sip. Queso was... kinda plain. It might have been better with the add chorizo option. It was very thick. Shrimp cocktail was big, but we started fighting over the shrimp pieces. There was plenty of onion and tomato left over after the batttle. Pollo Asado was a great flavor and the chicken was juicy. Grilled squash that was on the side was good. Chicken enchiladas were good and had freshly sliced jalapeños, which is always a welcome detail. I wasn't able to taste the quesadilla but my daoughter said it was "really good". Fried Chicken sandwich had a great flavor and the bacon was actually pork belly if I'm not mistaken. Sadly there was more batter than chicken. The seasoned fries were delicious and crispy.

We started…read morewith the Pan Fila Conchota combo that is a combination of the two that is 1/2 gallon of hot chocolate made using a base of Abuelitas with additional cinnamon, and cocoa along with something special. It was delicious! The concha was soft, buttery and flaky, with just the right sweetness. We took home the majority of it and it stayed nice and soft instead of turning hard like so many others. We decided to try several appetizers to go along with our concha to get a wider taste of their food than we would by just ordering a couple entrees. Let me tell you, this was a great idea! We ordered the Tosti-Ceviche Verde, Panela Asado, Mexican Street Corn, and their Spicy Bean Dip. The Ceviche Verde was excellent, the freshness of the fish and shrimp was wonderful with the chipotle mayo and avocado. We chose to have it on the salsa Verde Tostitos and it was all great combination. The Panelo Asado was a completely new dish for us and was extremely good with a savory flavor from the salsa Tlaquepaque that mixed well with the Panela cheese. Their tortillas though not made in house, are made for them and taste like mom made them. The Mexican Street Corn was great and had the perfect bit of char taste from the corn. It was creamy and flavorful, we did think it could use just a tad more lime juice though. The Spicy Bean Dip was very good. You can't go wrong with Oaxaca, Chorizo, and pieces of pork mixed with some mildly spicy beans. Our server was fantastic. She had great recommendations for us, and was quick with checking on our drinks and generally helping us throughout our dinner. The food was prepared quickly, was hot, tasteful and refreshing. We definitely will be going back, and recommend Pan Fila to all of you.

Not sure if the Italian side and the cantina side share the same kitchen, but we will remember to come back and try that side as well. If the Italian menu and preparation is as unique as the cantina's, it will be a worthy adventure. For our appetizer we got the cheese dish pictured. I can not recall the name, but the cheese is a cool light cheese served in a warm tomato-based sauce, topped with slices of fresh avocados and chicharones and was served with flour and corn tortillas. Very delicious! As mentioned in the opening...the menu, preparation, and presentation at Panfila is unique. For our entrees my wife got the chile Relleno and I got the Milanese con Mole. The chile Relleno was served in a bowl with just an absolutely fabulous sauce and stuffed and covered with nicely melted cheese. The Milanese con Mole was absolutely decadent! The tender pork was lightly fried and covered in the most delicious mole that I have ever eaten. The chocolate was a little more prominent in the flavor profile than I am used to; and I wouldn't think that I would like that, but it was perfect! I enjoyed every bite and used the extra tortillas from our appetizer to finish off the mole. Highly recommend anything on the menu that incorporates that mole!! Fantastic place!
