Ate the puffy tacos here. Got the guacamole one as that was the only veg option. They said even the beans one had lard in it. It was our first time eating a puffy taco. It was quite light and fluffy and yummy. Really liked the shell. They had 3 salsa options available too and I loved the green spicy one. The guys at the counter taking our order were friendly and helpful about the menu.

Teka Molino has successfully brought its legendary Tex-Mex game to the Make Ready Market and it's a welcome addition to the downtown scene! The food hall setup is fast and streamlined--perfect for a quick lunch or a casual evening bite. Of course, the Puffy Tacos are the star of the show. They come out fresh, light, and perfectly crispy/chewy. I got the picadillo, and the meat was well-seasoned and not overly greasy. The Bean Cups are still the comforting, cheesy side dish you know and love. The counter service was quick and friendly. While it lacks the full, sit-down atmosphere of their original spots, the convenience and the ability to grab a margarita at the adjacent bar make this a great spot. If you need a puffy taco fix in River North, this is your new go-to!

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. Would rate 8/10 and definitely on the list to come back.

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. Service was fast and attentive, searing took a little bit but this place is always busy so expect a short wait. The atmosphere was bustling with customers and hungry folks. Will definitely recommend to friends and family.

After our San Antonio River cruise, we were hungry and ready to get out of the July heat. 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.

Didn't like one of the drinks told the server and about 10 minutes later someone co.es to the table and says "whats going on?" I'm like who are you the bartender, oh no he tells me he's the manager. Who comes to the tables not introducing themselves and says whats going on. The Margaritas were good. The paella was good. They did take off the chrages,so that was nice. Quality of food at the river walk in San Antonio isn't the greatest..
