So good - Edit
This food was delicious and I am really hopeful to sneak in one more visit before I leave town. My food (chik’n tacos) was delicious, looked pretty much exactly like the plate in the cover pic. The waiter, Hugo, was very accommodating. The pineapple aguas frescas was so good. The atmosphere was fun. The portions and prices were really good. I ate all of my food, which is a rarity. It was so delicious- lots of fresh ingredients made for a really appetizing lunch.
Read moreI also purchased some tamales (order ahead.). They were a really good value and tasted great. Looking forward to sharing some with my kid when I get them home.
PS There were so many cats in the neighborhood outside. While I hope they all have homes, they were super cute to see and I wanted to take them all home.
Pros: Amazing food, Friendly staff, Good value
Cons: No complaints whatsoever

Best Veggie Mexican Food - Edit
Love coming here! It is hard to find Mex food that is veggie friendly in SA. It is a must to start with a fresh Agua Fresca- obsessed with watermelon. The nachos and tacos are flavorful and filling. I plan to try everything on menu in time:)

They appear to have closed - Edit
They seem to have closed but the website is still up. Such a bummer as the menu looks great. Parking lot is chained closed during opening hours listed on their website. No voice-mail when I called to check on hours.

On their website they said they are closed for the holidays and will be reopening 1/5. Hopefully that's some good news for you. It's a great place.

Fire - Edit
The service was excellent. The food was a great value. The tacos were really well done. The nachos were decent and HUGE! The cheese on the nachos were the only gripe. It tasted more like a butternut squash puree. The aqua Fresca was delicious. Rice and beans yummy and authentic. Overall great stop.

The Best Mexican Vegan Food - Edit
My husband and I try to eat here any time we are in San Antonio. The food here is always fresh and delicious, and everything on the menu is vegan and gluten free. Over the years we have tried several dishes. Most recently we had the mole poblano and crispy cauliflower tacos. Both dishes were based on cauliflower chunks that had a very thin but super crispy battered shell and were cooked to perfection- not too crunchy and not too soft. The sauces on both dishes were spicy and rich, and both meals came out hot. Each plate included a bit of salad, some rice, and the tastiest pinto beans ever. You can tell that everything was made to order using fresh ingredients. This continues to be our #1 go-to place in SA.

Excellent! - Edit
This place is one of my favorite restaurants - vegan or not.
Read moreI've brought non vegans there and they loved it. My favorites are fried avocado tacos and nachos (you can split a half order with someone, they are huge). My least favorite are the chick'n flautas, they are a bit dry, but good with sauce. Basically everything is good so you really can't go wrong.
Oh and the charro beans are delicious!
