    Authentic, fresh, great prices and wonderful customer service!! Wanted some quick food this morning and went through their drive thru. For $10 got 1 chorizo y papa taco, 1 chorizo y lluevos taco , side of rice and a large drink. Took me less than 5 minutes. This is the place for amazing breakfast tacos or any time of the day!!!

    Large Mendo & Chorizo Plate.

    The food is always delicious. Their breakfast tacos Corizo, Backon& Egg are always delicious. If you like Menudo, It's always delicious. Their Barbacoa, Birria, and Fajitas are tasty as well.

    Torta de al pastor

    We go for breakfast sometimes and we enjoy their food. So we decided to take our grandma for dinner bc she wanted enchiladas. (Not pictured) she really liked them. I had a torta de Al pastor 8/10 bc it ended up breaking apart because of the pastor juice lol. My bf got the chicken fajitas 9/10 the beans were not good & grandma even didn't care for the beans as well. This place is close to our neighborhood & we will continue to eat here Service: 10/10 & attentive

    Pretty big size.. how could they miss it

    I've never complained about la Parrilla but this is unacceptable. How is it that yall manage to get this much eggshell in the egg I get it sometimes a small piece sneaks away but 4 pieces is crazy.. do better or get staff that isn't so hungover!

    Side of guac

    This is a "quesadilla" here. Cheese not even fully melted. Side of guacamole was more of a meal than the quesadilla. I paid about $7 for this meal.

    LEAF IN BARBACOA TACO THAT I SPIT OUT

    Was a regular here for about 2 years until a few months ago I found a leaf in my barbacoa taco. Stopped going for a few months and came back & ordered it again completely forgetting about the incident. FOUND ANOTHER LEAF IN MY BARBACOA TACO AGAIN!! Not even going to bother calling them to address it because their customer service isn't good at all. But I did look at reviews on here and saw someone share this KSAT link from *haha* about 2 years ago... Disgusting. Never coming back & telling all my loved ones to stay away. https://www.ksat.com/news/local/2022/03/07/dirty-utensils-food-stored-on-the-floor-lead-to-low-score-at-west-side-restaurant/#:~:text=La%20Parrilla%20Mexican%20Restaurant%20received%20a%20score%20of%2078%20from%20health%20inspectors&text=SAN%20ANTONIO%20%E2%80%93%20A%20Mexican%20restaurant,stored%20directly%20on%20the%20ground.

    Drive thru menu

    Drive thru line is usually very busy in the morning and on weekends. Theres always cars in the parking lot, service as quick as possible. Food is solid. It's your typical San Antonio Mexican restaurant 9/10

    This place hits the mark on everything when it comes to breakfast…read more We had the standard huevos rancheros and the huevos benitos. Both were solid, especially the huevos benitos. I'm not a big fan of chorizo, but I do seek out unique variations of eggs benedict, and this one fit the bill, so I went for it. The flavor combination was perfect, and I wasn't overwhelmed with chorizo. If you like eggs benny, give this variation a try. You won't be sorry! The refried beans - I know it's silly to review beans, but these were a bit different than the normal ones we find in SA. They had a bit more texture, unlike the overly blended beans we're used to. Chef's Kiss goes out to these beans! The potatoes - we weren't sure what the seasoning was, but we think it was adobo. Whatever the seasoning is, it puts them over the top as far as breakfast potatoes are concerned. Good stuff! Just a couple of notes: We didn't get tortillas with our breakfast. It might have been an oversight, or our meals didn't come with them. Not sure. The service was great, but depending on the server you get, you might need to know some Spanish. I give them 5 solid stars for breakfast.

The hostess was a little drab but as I was walked in to be seated, you could feel the upbeat mood. Note that if you're dining solo, they will push hard to seat you at a dark diner type counter to stare at the kitchen area even if you have a reservation, so don't give in unless you're starving and that's your last resort. The colorful decor hits you and you're transported. I ordered the "Mexican Dinner" with chicken enchilada, pork tamal, beef taco with beans and rice.

The biggest issue which is concerning is all of the birds flying from table to table and through the outside area during breakfast/brunch time of day. The staff does everything they can but it's impossible to keep birds away being outside. Leads to some concerns about the sanitation & cleanliness while birds are hanging out on half the empty tables and chairs. We could have moved inside and probably would if we visit again. The food was delicious and it is still a great place to try as long as your good with birds. My sister who joined us was a little leery of their presence the entire time.

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.

That really makes a difference for a family outing! And oh my goodness, the appetizers are simply fantastic. We couldn't get enough! I also have to give a special shout-out to the Carrajillo I ordered. It was such a delightful surprise - perfectly balanced, not overly sweet, with a lovely citrusy kick that made it incredibly refreshing. Definitely a new favorite drink! We're already looking forward to our next visit to explore more of amazing menu. Just a little heads-up for anyone else, we realized on our way out that there's an extra parking lot right across the street if the main one fills up. Super handy to know!

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.
