Breakfast
Ausanka D.

The food was just ok, nothing particular to share. It was crowded, a lot of activities. The food was bland.

Panchitos Deluxe

Love the panchitos deluxe taco. Service was very quick. The ambiance is very colorful and cheerful.

I recommend Panchito's Restaurant very good food fresh and hot! It is a self serve restaurant you stand in line and place your order stand in line to to fill your own drinks. They give you a buzzer for when your order is ready for you to get. It's clean nice and quiet somewhat busy Mexican restaurant. They pick up as someone leaves the table. The menus are posted for display. Prices are good and so is the food.

TYPICAL TEX-MEX RESTAURANT! This restaurant is located on the West side of town. Unfortunately this side of town is very crime ridden and not much is located out here. When I used to work on this side, I frequented Panchito's! My usual order consisted of either the chicken enchilada plate or the beef fajita plate. All plates come with rice, beans, lettuce and tomatoes. The food has flavor but it's nothing amazing or memorable. It's literally the only decent Tex-Mex food place in the area. Not my current "go-to" place but it's okay!

Chilaquiles
Diana G.

I've passed by this restaurant numerous times and had never stopped. I finally ate here on a Sunday expecting great food. I ordered their chilaquiles and was disappointed. I guess I'm used to a different dish. I think they used American cheese. Maybe the tacos are better. The price is good. I was also happy that they had homemade corn tortillas. I wouldn't recommend you go out of your way to eat here.

La Fonda is one of our favorite Mexican restaurants in town. When you arrive it feels like you're…read morestepping into an inviting home rather than a business. The food is upscale traditional Mexican fare but has most of your usual options like enchiladas and fajitas. We always start with chips and salsa. Their salsa is freshly made with tomatoes and onions. We always go at dinner time and have had a variety of dishes. I'm partial to their fajitas or steaks while my husband goes with their Fonda plate of enchiladas with a side taco. But don't miss out on their specials. Every month or so their are seasonal specials. Most recently we both had a wood fired pork chop with poblano mashed potatoes and cabbage and garbanzo bean casserole with a slightly spiced chile sauce. It was divine!! The food is always delicious and beautifully presented. It's clear that the chefs pay attention to details. The staff are always helpful and attentive. You don't want to pass on dessert either. Their empanadas are seasonal. BlackBerry are my favorite. Recently the option was Apple pie, for the fall season La Fonda on Main is one if those comforting places we return to over and over and is one of those places to take out of town guests who want local, non-chain atmosphere and food.

The place is very nice, we enjoyed sitting outdoors (dog friendly). Decor and ambiance are great…read more Food was very good, portions were good, except for the fonda salad and arrachera were rather small. Our server was very nice and attentive.

We ordered the half chicken ($11), and I was honestly surprised by how juicy and moist it still was inside. The outside had a wonderful smoky charcoal flavor, and the marinade was flavorful all the way through. It also came with rice, corn tortillas, red and green salsa, grilled jalapeño, lime, and grilled onion, so it was a really filling meal for the price. We also tried the Bean Burger ($9.79), which was a fun combination of a beef patty, refried beans, cheese, chipotle sauce, and pico de gallo. I enjoyed it, although I personally would have loved a thicker layer of beans. The green salsa was SO good that I ended up buying an extra container for about $5 to take home. The restaurant itself is very casual and no-frills, with a big charcoal grill that really adds to the atmosphere--you can see and smell the chicken cooking. It feels much more like a local neighborhood spot than a polished tourist restaurant. Service was also very friendly and attentive. Even though we arrived late, we never felt rushed, and our server checked on us several times to make sure we had everything we needed. I would absolutely come back for the chicken and green salsa.

The grilled chicken is incredibly seasoned well, the rice is always fresh and the beans are packed…read morewith flavor, as well as nice and hot.

We had…read morewanted to try Iron Cactus earlier in our trip but were too tired that evening to make the walk from our hotel. Now that we happened to be nearby, this was our opportunity. It was a hot Sunday afternoon, so there was no debate about where we wanted to sit. We headed straight for the wonderfully air-conditioned dining room, which provided a welcome break after spending time in the sun during our river cruise. Gabby was our server, and she was fantastic. She was friendly and attentive, took our order right away, and delivered our drinks promptly. What impressed us most was how she kept our drinks refilled without us ever having to ask. Her service was outstanding and made an already enjoyable lunch even better. The food was just as impressive. Our Mexican entrées were delicious and exactly what we needed after a hot afternoon on the River Walk. Between the excellent food, Gabby's attentive service, and the comfortable, modern dining room, Iron Cactus turned out to be the perfect place to relax and recharge. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and will definitely return the next time we're in San Antonio. Next time, though, we'd like to come back for dinner and experience Iron Cactus in the evening.
