    Chilaquiles Plate
    Nikki A.

    This was my first time trying this place out. We went through the drive thru. I loved that we were promptly greeted and our order came out right. We had to wait a little bit, which I don't mind when I know we're getting food as it's made. I live chilaquiles and try it wherever it's offered. The sauce on the chips was good. The eggs were cooked well, and I liked the flavor of the beans. The potatoes didn't have much flavor at all so I didn't eat them. All in all it was decent but nothing to write home about. I'd probably eat here again and try something different. It was recommended by a couple friends who enjoyed eating here previously.

    Pastor Plate

    I'm going to be %100 honest.. only reason I went to this restaurant was because it's next to Wayne's Wings and they had a huge wait and we were starving. We decided to check this local place out. As far as Covid procedures, they didn't have much other than social distancing. The restaurant has a shady vibe, we asked the waiter several questions about the menu and she had absolutely no answers. Like, at all. I'm assuming she was new. We were literally the only ones there, so we figured we'd get fast service... we were wrong. We ended up deciding to order Wayne's despite their 1 hour wait, but still ordered at this place since we were already here.. yeah we were that hungry. Service was slow.. I'm serious. SLOW. Took forever to get our drinks about 15 minutes in we got chips and salsa. The food took a whopping 45 minutes to come out.. 45.. minutes. In a place where we were alone. What did we order you might be asking? Tacos, enchiladas, and carne al pastor. I know for a fact I can do all of this from scratch in about 15 minutes at home with no prep. They took 45 in a restaurant that I'm assuming had prepped items. The pastor was actually pretty good. The side (rice, beans, and lettuce) tasted like it was from yesterday. My tripas taco that I ordered crunch was not crunchy at all. BUT had great flavor. The enchiladas they got wrong, so we sent them back and didn't ask for something else since we figured it would take a lifetime. We didn't get any utensils until about 4 minutes in out meal. Over all HORRIBLE service. Main item on the plate did taste great. Only reason why I'm giving it 2 stars. I hope they hire better service.

    Went for carnitas because I've always loved then from here, very disappointed today when I got this it's usually shredded up and crispy. Seems like a huge change recently definitely not the same

    My son's review:I think the tacos are pretty salty... But they gave a free complimentary pen. Great customer service! Overall Just the cutest restaurant. They captured the Mexican feel perfectly. I highly recommend this place. Crunchy tacos and delicious rice.

    3 bean and cheese tacos for nearly $9 is outrageous... for the quality of the taco my money was very wasted.

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!
