    The menu
    Yadhira L.

    It's an easy spot to miss being such a tiny building next to another tiny building sandwiched between bigger restaurants down SW Military Drive. I've been here several times and I still set my gps to find it. The menu is straightforward. You must always get an order of quesobirria. That cheesy taco with consome is the stuff of midnight cravings. The servings are very generous and even though I order it plus an order of trompo tacos I can never get to the trompo. I save it for later. Their aguas frescas are also delicious. They have more than the usual 3 offerings. It's more like 7 flavors. I tried the coconut the last time. It was good but too many chunky bits. At least you know it's fresh and not powder mix. I've also had lemonade and pineapple. My friends like the cucumber flavor but it can be extra sweet. The place is small but has decent indoor seating. The music, however, is blasting! You can't hear anything. We have to ask them to lower the volume. Even the waitress was like "Que??" We're like, exactly! Turn down the music! Usually we do drive thru but feel like it takes too long. We just sit and wait because I don't think there's another quesobirria place nearby.

    Such a colorful experience

    Listen, this spot is freaking adorable and delicious! When you pull up don't miss the great photo opp spot in the back of the building When you walk in you'll see they are really aiming to make this spot feel authentically Mexican. From their colorful, perfect for food photo countertops to their casually classic corona dining tables, it all served a purpose NOW, THE FOOD We tried the Trompo, Bistec, & Lengua mini tacos along with the amazing Quesabarria with the beloved consume THIS WAS THE WINNER! Opened that bad boy up and poured in their tasty salsa verde and a little pico de gallo, then followed that up with a deep dip in their consume...WOW!!! We paired these up with a cocacolamx and Topo Chico for the perfect Mexican street food dinner! Get out to support this Southside business between 11AM & MIDNIGHT weekdays & until 1AM on weekends. Tell em who sent ya #AngelFoodDude

    A tiny yet comfortable place, that came across looking for torta and end up ordering, Mini tacos de bistec. First observation was the meat, most of the places now in days smash the meat so tiny you can hardly see a piece, garnished with the traditional cilantro and onion but with a touch of freshness cucumber and radish ! Also the birria quesadilla was delicious served with consomé not spicy just well seasoned. Worth driving to the south from the north, lol. Good place for hangovers just saying.

    My son really wanted tacos & we've been wanting to try this place out. Walking in it's a pretty small place but it's so beautifully decorated! I absolutely love the vibe it gives. It also smells absolutely amazing. He had the bistec tacos and they were good. My son & I rate restaurants on how good their green salsa is, as it's our favorite. He rated it a 9 out of 10. So we recommend !!! @ I can't wait to come back and try out the rest of the tacos.

    Food was great. The boys loved the Birria Ramen and Me and the Little Lady really enjoyed the Quesabirria tacos. It's a small restaurant but there is plenty of seating inside and there is even a drive through.

    Our waitress didn't speak English but she was still very helpful there are people there who speak English tho the food food came out very quickly ...it is not very large so if you're planning on having a big party it would probably not be that comfortable But the food is amazing we had the beans the number two the Number three and then just plain bistek quesadillas Plus we had the Peppino con lemon drink and the Horchata fresa everything here is a very good very flavorful very fresh.... definitely coming back and bringing people if you want some yummy food like streak tacos or birira come to this awesome place

    If you are a taco connoisseur of any sort this is the spot. I am a sucker for taco trucks when I see one and it's lunch or dinner time. This restaurant is top notch for offering specialty tacos normally not seen on any taco truck or restaurant. Some very good examples of tacos not seen in everyday USA menus are tacos de "campechana", "labio", "ojo", and my favorite "suadero". These types of tacos are more "cultural" to certain types of Mexican regions but all under one roof. This will be my top recommendation for tacos in Texas and maybe the USA until I find better.

    Quesabirria

    Hands down, the best birria I've had. The meat was juicy and tender. Really enjoyed the quesabirria tacos and consomme. The added potato was interesting. Also had great lengua taco, buche taco, and beans. Fast, friendly service. Lots more items on the menu I'd like to try.

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.

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.
