    BEWARE OF DRIVR THRU!!!! Just bought a large carne quisada and sweet tea. Drive thru lady tried charging me $15.74 for ONE TACO AND ONE TEA! This is a $8 order and ending up paying $10.74. Said she charged HER tip like she always does when I was trying to pay with credit card. Since she felt comfortable trying to add a tip without asking the customer or anything makes me wonder how many people she has scammed with this tactic. She wears multiple bracelets on her arms, not the usual lady that is there. BEWARE everyone!!

    There was a lady who was taking our orders in the drive thru and was super sweet! Love her! The food was delicious, we got Carne Guisada, Bean and Cheese, Barbacoa with Guacamole, and a beef fajita w/ cheese! Carne Guisada: 5/5 Bean and Cheese: 5/5 Barbacoa w/ guacamole: 5/5 Beef fajita w/ cheese: 4.5/5 Amazing! Spent around 23 dollars! So worth it

    I was in the area decided to stop by. This was a staple in my late teens. It's been a couple of years since I've been back. I ordered two of the large tacos. Immediately I noticed they were smaller than I remember and a lot more expensive. What hasn't recently right? The first taco was the carne con chile with rice. Still great, still spicy, and made me feel good inside. The carne guisada though was a total disappointment. I remember it was peppery and savory. This was bland. The tortillas for whatever reason are so much worse on the larger tacos than the regular ones. Maybe quality control but it doesn't make sense. They are very dense at that size and not what you want in a tortilla. If I had only eaten the chile con carne taco it would have been a 4. The green sauce was still delicious and spicy! May come back for the fajita later and update my score. For know it's a solid 3.

    Remember the alamo, special!

    Been coming to this place for ages! They've since changed owners a couple of times. The food has not changed for the most part, which is a good thing. However, it seems lately the carne guisada is a hit & miss. The salsa is still good & the cheese enchiladas are awesome! The service is good still, prices have gone up slightly. Don't let the long lines at the drive thru scare you away, it moves fairly quickly. They will send a person to take your order while in line, this speeds up the process, unless you`re the type that changes your order at the window! Try some Texas sized tacos!!

    First I'd like to say this use to be our go to for some amazing tacos but after today we will not return. My plate tasted bland and super greasy potatoes with someone's hair... Also one of the tacos tasted like old meat. Place and service were okay.

    The super fajita taco was HUGE!

    The carne guisada, barbacoa and bean and cheese tacos were 5 stars all the way! We also got a super fajita taco which was just ok. The tacos were good size and well worth the price. All in all great food we'll definitely being going back!

    Our favorite little spot on sunday we order to go because the line gets long for the delicious tacos! Definitely worth the wait! Tortillas are always homemade and the food is always fresh! Cheese Enchilada tacos are my go to! Must try!

    I ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese taco and a bean and cheese. You place your order with the person who walks up to your car and pick up in the drive through window. Their tortillas are definitely on the thicker side but have very good flavor. You can also size your taco up to Texas sized for $1.50 I believe and they are huge! It's worth my a stop if you're in the area.

    Hands down the best carne guisada in SA. Very clean restaurant. The drive through line can get backed up on the weekends but for good reason

    From the moment I sat down at Tlahco, I knew I was in for something special. The bean dip hit first…read more-- creamy, flavorful, and honestly unlike anything I've ever had. Pair that with their handmade thick chips, and you're already winning. Then came the mini tacos: chicken, birria, and barbacoa. The chicken surprised me by being the standout, juicy, tender, and perfectly seasoned. The birria followed right behind with that deep, rich flavor that makes you stop mid‑conversation. The margaritas? Smooth, refreshing, and sneaky enough that you don't realize how strong they are until you stand up. What sealed the deal was the service. The staff was kind, patient, and didn't rush me even though I lost track of time chatting on the phone. They even let me hang out until my Uber pulled up. Tlahco isn't just good, it's amazing. 10/10 experience.

    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. Also had a side order of fresh handmade tortillas. Paloma to wash it all down. Everything tasted great. My server was excellent. Patient and helpful with recommendations.

I loved the beef enchiladas with gravy & rice & refried beans. The gravy was very unique. Not your typical sauce for Mexican cuisine, but very good. As a side we received, warm flour tortillas. These were unbelievably good. This is a beautifully decorated restaurant with such a nice wait staff. Also, serenades are available from a couple of gentlemen walking throughout the dining area. I recommend this restaurant!

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 sat on the back patio for dinner on a day when it was 100 degrees out and there were fans all over to help keep the air flowing, which helped immensely. They have some interesting cocktails, such as their jalapeño cucumber margarita which is made with ghost pepper infused tequila. Their salsa tray is nice too, they have 4 to select from and you get three in this appetizer, but we ordered the 4th as well and all were pretty nicely done. The verde was amazing and the roasted tomato was great, just not spicy at all. I tried their combo fajitas and was thankful they came out being simply plated, rather than on the blazing hot, sizzling skillet - I don't need the show, just the good eats. The meats were decent, the beans were amazing. The tortillas were just ok, as I felt like they were way too thick. They offered corn tortillas too, but I'm in Texas, so you get flour, not corn. Save room for dessert, they have amazing churros! Overall, this was a decent visit. Service was nice too. I'd recommend stopping in.

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.
