    Carne guisada

    The huevos rancheros w/carne guisada breakfast plate I very good and tasty, and my wife had carne guisada with enchiladas which was good too. This is a small quiet restaurant with a nice atmosphere.

    Huevos Rancheros with steak

    Excellent service! Waited on promptly upon entering and checked on regularly. I had the Huevos rancheros with steak and beans and friend had the steak and eggs. Mine came with fresh homemade tortillas, some of the best I've had.

    This is local. I am the only tourist here, and I am a native Texan. I have been many times over the years. This place is a good reminder that you can still get juevos rancheros for less than 10$ with a coffee. It's good food for way less dinero than hip places in town.

    We were looking for breakfast tacos and were recommended to go to the Oasis Cafe. It was just what we were looking for. Fresh tortillas and fresh ingredients and house made salsas. Great value for the quality of food and a short walk from the Riverwalk.

    Chilaquiles with flour tortillas

    Been having breakfast here for years and the food and service has never disappointed. My go-to dish is the Chilaquiles with flour tortillas. The eggs and chips are topped with a classic shredded cheddar cheese and make a great little taco if you use the flour tortilla to wrap it up in and put some of the green salsa on top. Additionally, the service is impressive with many of the servers making an effort to remember your order and make you feel welcome when you walk in the door after they notice you've been coming there frequently. Definitely recommend stopping by to give this spot a try!

    I hate leaving such a low rating for a family-owned business, but our experience at Oasis Cafe leaves me with little choice. First, it should be said that the people here are extremely friendly. The place, though it's divey, is pretty clean. Parking is a pain. -- As out-of-towners, we didn't know that we couldn't park in the lot adjacent to the restaurant, so we put ourselves at risk of being towed. (We were fortunate that such didn't happen.) Most regulars during our visit were parking on the street, and there seemed to be plenty of it. We drove way out of the way to eat breakfast here, based entirely on such a positive Yelp following. I had a couple of tacos-- barbacoa and chicharron w/ egg. My wife ordered migas. Really, all you have to do is look at the photos I uploaded to see my complaints. The migas were essentially tortilla chips that appeared as if they were dipped in egg, then cooked until over-dry, with nary a leaf of cilantro. Very disappointing. ~ My barbacoa was average ... no complaints. But my chicharron and egg taco was very similar to my wife's migas. Pork rinds placed atop an overcooked egg portion, then folded in a tortilla. Perhaps Oasis has its own house recipes for these classic Tex-Mex breakfast dishes, and that's fine. But the stuff we were served, albeit hot and fresh, just seemed like it wasn't prepared with much love. Still, I wish this business well and hope that they use the less-than-stellar reviews (such as this one) to improve.

    I have been here several times. It's one of those staple tourist places that you have to visit when…read moreyou are in town. Service is fast, place is decently clean for the foot traffic, the servers all look happy and eager to work. I ordered tortilla soup, I usually like it with a cup of rice and avocado like most places serve it. However, I definitely think this is a safe Mexican food restaurant when it comes to not overdoing it with spices and the extra stuff. My soup had a decent amount of chicken. I had a mimosa, loved that they used fresh orange juice. Flour tortillas were delicious! Before heading out you need to have the sweet bread!! So goooodd!

    People say when in San Antonio, do like the San Antonian's. Nobody really says that. I mean, I just…read moredid, but I also just made it up. With that being said, let's make up a review. Except I'm not actually making the review up, I've been to the place. Both San Antonio and the restaurant moments away from being reviewed. I'm always down for solid Mexican food. It's always pretty damn good. I mean, at the pure base of things, it's basically the same few ingredients, just different vessels to get it to your mouth. I'm never bad about that. I love transportation. Mi Tierra was a pretty great looking place. Plenty of space, a nice outside waiting area, plus a bakery. I have never been to a place with a bakery that I didn't like. It seemed like a very authentic place, and that's coming from a resident of Michigan. A resident that eats Taco Bell. A resident who eats Taco Bell and think's THAT'S authentic Mexican. The first thing I noticed was that this place did not seem to serve burritos. Not a marker really for me, but it was something I've never came across before. I also thought that you were stuck ordering enchiladas or tacos in a meal type of setting. Upon further questioning, you can order a la cart. That was a relief. I ended up ordering the enchiladas Verdes because sometimes I ignore my color palate and go for green. And because I can't just stop eating one form of meat, cheese, and sauce, I ordered a taco. Actually, I just ordered a taco because I wanted a dryer enchilada. Or did I order the enchiladas because I wanted a wetter taco...I don't know anymore. Anywho, I ground beef, American style taco. Now, I've always been a big fan of chips and salsa. Some salsa hits, some miss. Some salsa is pureed and is basically red water. Some salsa is just a full tomato. I like my salsa like I like my orange juice. With extra calcium. Wait. Mild pulp. That's it. This salsa pretty much hit those notes. Had good flavor and a little spice left to linger. The main course came out and everything looked delicious. Green enchiladas looked exactly like I expected. However, it took me a moment to realize I was not looking at a burrito...but instead, my taco. It was served a peculiar way. wrapped, seam down, with a little bit of the meat on top, pico and lettuce on the outside, next to it. It was a burrito peacocking as a taco. I've never seem this display before, and I have been to many Taco Bell and non-Taco Bell restaurants. The taste was pretty good, though. All the taco flavor in a burrito jacket. The enchiladas were pretty decent, too. Everything tasted like it had all the ingredients and that they were in all the right spots. No doubt about it, I was full after e

    Surprised the wife with a trip to Pan Fila for her favorite hot chocolate and concha. 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.
