    Puffy tacos
    Rasiel G.

    Awesomely priced food, great service, & delicious food. The wait staff make us feel welcomed & are ready to serve us. The parking is whack, people park how ever they want in the back, so try to park upfront. I like their carne guisada & cheese enchiladas. The caldo de res is super delicious with large servings of papas, carrots & carne. The tortillas are warm & soft. Check them out.

    Very small and a lil crowded it the worst I can say about this restaurant. Because the food was delicious and hot. The amount of spice they add to there meals was perfect and full of flavor. If you're looking for a Mexican restaurant that's has all your favorite dishes you definitely need to come here it won't miss!

    Cheese enchilada with double rice and no salad, My favorite

    This is my go to Mexican restaurant SO BOMB!!!! Everything I've eaten here is amazing & that's that I haven't even tried everything, I'm stuck on the cheese enchiladas, THE BEST IN TOWN.. hands down! I've eaten cheese enchiladas at several restaurants & no one tops Blue Moons. The sweet tea is on point along with the lemonade. The tortillas are on point, the menudo is just right! I definitely recommend this place and the ladies here are super welcoming and sweet! I also love the play list everytime it's on point I'll never stop coming here no matter how far I live.

    Beautiful caldo!

    Mexican food made with love! Always consistently great! Staff are always friendly. No sense going anywhere else for Mexican food.

    Talk about authentic! This little place packs a huge punch when it comes to food and service. As soon as you walk in you're greeted with a huge, "hello and welcome", followed by a very attentive staff and great/fresh food. Great place to bring family and fri

    Chicharrones en salsa & one carne guisada breakfast tacos...

    This is the quintessential little restaurant that could/can/will be doing delicious Tex-Mex and I'm here for it. Nestled on the Southside of SA, in the shadow of Burbank HS & the SAISD Sports Complex, you have arrived into a family run, neighborhood staple (atleast 30+ years) and by looks & tastes of it-they're not done yet. I stopped in for breakfast tacos recently and was not disappointed. I ordered the chicharrones en salsa plus a carne guisada (my table-mates swore by it) and they were delicious. Homemade tortillas were delicious, fluffy AND fresh- Everything was freshly made. They had two salsas-the constant green salsa and then there was their signature chile arbol red sauce-it tasted good and the heat snuck up on you...NICE! Please note that this restaurant is quite small, maybe 15 tables max, but people were willing to wait or opted to go, so be patient. Everyone was warmly welcomed (and they actually made eye contact and meant it!) and the service was efficient & friendly. Dally (ample portions) specials-both breakfast & lunch just look for their whiteboard by the register. I'll be back as soon as I can. TY Blue Moon!

    Menudo con pata, picoso-it'll put pelo en tu pecho!

    Another down home Mexican restaurant in the heart of the Southside. I had the huevos rancheros, with carne guisada, beans, and papitas. All delicious, perfectly prepared, the guisada was perfection with a dash of salt. The potatoes didn't look like much, but expertly fried and seasoned-so tasty. The flour tortillas were heavenly, soft, buttery, and magnificent. The corn tortillas were good but the flour was so much better. The menudo with pata was good, but very spicy and not for the faint of heart-it didn't help I added even more salsa picoso. The pata here didn't really add much, it needed more time in the pot. But in totality -food quality and friendly service-outstanding!

    This restaurant came highly recommended and it did not disappoint. On our drive from Ft. Worth to San Antonio, we discovered that the restaurant closes at 3 pm so we booked it there. When we got there, they were closing early at 2:30. We asked for an alternative place for food, and instead they said don't worry about it and fixed us 2 plates of the day's special. Carne guisado, beans, and rice. It was hands down one of the best meals I've eaten. Blue Moon has been around for 50 years and it's not hard to see why. The service was friendly, the food amazing, and hospitality off the charts. Stop in if you're in town!

    TEX-MEX STYLE OMELETTE PLATE.

    Delicious! Service was amazing. I really enjoyed the lemonade. I used all the salsas including the one they give you for your chips and honestly might have been my favorite one.

    Great food and value. Tried the chicken puffy tacos and they turned out great - actually stayed together. Fresh salsa and good tortillas!

    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.
