    Beef fajita, crispy tripas and carné guisada tacos
    Sophina M.

    Stopped in for lunch upon several recommendations in a restaurant group that I'm in. All of the food that we ordered was very good but the posole and carné de puerco con chilé taco were OUTSTANDING. I was very much reminded of the food back home in New Mexico. The taco is what we call carné adovada and it was amazing. It was a busy brunch hour but the server was fast and efficient. The restroom was clean and if you have a friend with you, the restrooms have 2 toilets lol We will be back soon and often!!

    Decorations, chandeliers, beautiful ceiling fans.

    Great service, the food is absolutely delicious, and their paintings on the wall are beautiful!

    The bright orange building is unmistakable from the Hildebrand/Blanco intersection. We stopped by because we had a craving for texmex enchiladas. I was not very impressed. The enchiladas were very small and lacked flavor. I also ordered tortilla soup to go. The soup was flavorful and full of vegetables, avocado and cheese. I probably will not return to this restaurant again. The floor was full of customers that appeared happy with their meals.

    I love Fina's!!! I went for breakfast with a couple of my friends and we knew as soon as we walked in that we would have a great time. Warm environment, friendly staff. Our waitress Leo was very animated, friendly, and attentive throughout our meal. She definitely made our experience special! I'm a sucker for breakfast tacos and there's were great! Their flour tortillas are bomb. It was my birthday and my friend told the staff without me knowing and I was shocked how big of a deal they made birthdays. I wasn't expecting it at all since this is more of a hole in the wall type place, but they go hard! They BLASTED a happy birthday song, had a cupcake and birthday candle, a sombrero, and confetti. The staff sung and clapped and the whole restaurant got involved. They made me feel very special, I would definitely return here for a friend's birthday. Definitely would recommend this restaurant!

    Wishing you a a happy day and God bless you all.

    I'm not even playin' when I give this place 5 stars! Mis abuelos have been coming here for years and for good reason. The food is amazing... and ridiculously cheap. After a long day of shopping on Black Friday, we were all in need of some tasty grub. After dropping off tons of bags at my grandparents' house, we headed to Fina's. This place isn't fancy, but it's not a dump either. It's nice enough for a very casual date, casual biz lunch or dining with the fam. Look around to find youngens on lunch break, regulars chowing down on the regular and others who are in the know with this Mexican oasis. (That's you now.) Lunch specials are abundant offering a plethora of items under 6 bucks. Their menu consists of many different tacos (breakfast too-yum), caldos, enchiladas, salads, and many other AUTHENTIC goodies. We had a very nice waitress who seemed to really love working there, plus she spoke Spanish to my abuelita so I thought that was very sweet. I had a combo plate that involved a puffy taco and cheese enchiladas. There was not a scrap left on my plate.. and if there was my brother ate it. The chips and salsa that they bring to the table are the best I have ever had. Really. The best. Also the best.. really... are the tortillas. They are served hot, flaky and puffy. Check the pics, and you will see what I am talking about. You have to try this place. Oh! They are only open until 3pm!

    Holy wow.

    Logan V gave Fina's 5 stars, so when I was in the area in need of lunch, I knew his recommendation would not lead me astray. I would give Fina's 15 stars if I could. It was exceptional. Plus, anytime all the reviews for a Mexican restaurant in San Antonio compare it to the yelper's abuelita's cooking, you know you have to give it a shot! So, parking is very tough to come by. Not because the lot is particularly small, but more to do with the fact that it is packed all the time. Also a good sign, no? I found a spot and made my way inside where I was met by fellow yelper and we sat down to enjoy a fantastic Tex-Mex meal. Their lunch specials range from $5.99 to $8.99. I opted for Enchilades Mexicana. WAY too much food for one person to eat all by their lonesome. But, so delicious I tried my best. The red gravy and queso fresca on top of the enchiladas was my favorite part but the beans and rice could easily take 1st place against most places I've been around town. And I've been around... The salsa verde was so spicy and delicious I could have eaten it with a spoon but thankfully the bottomless basket of handmade chips kept showing up at our table so I didn't have to. All in all, I can't wait to go back and will certainly add this to my regular rotation! Thanks Logan V!

    The food is always great. There wait staff is very friendly. The only thing I can complain about is the noise level. It is super load in there. I would recommend you making a stop for the food.

    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.
