Garcia's Mexican Food: Authentic Tacos and Tex-Mex Breakfast in San Antonio

Wonderful place! I could tell most of the patrons knew each other. Which is indicative of a successful establishment. The menu provided a plethora of options, I went with the steak and eggs. Might have been one-upped by my buddy who got breakfast tacos.

We found this place listed as the #1 Mexican restaurant in San Antonio. That set the bar really high! We were not disappointed! Even my wife couldn’t stop saying how amazing it was. You have got to get the brisket taco, but even the bacon and egg one was unbelievable. I love chorizo tacos. I was very happy with mine until a had everything else. I couldn’t believe how good everything were had was.

This place is not very big. It was busy and packed when I arrived. Once you are on a list they will call your name, surprisingly it did not take long. Ordered the brisket plate and an enchilada plate. Complementary chips and salsa were delivered to our table. In short time our plates arrived. One taste of the brisket and I could tell this was done right and was cooked perfectly. This plate came with choice of tortillas (flower), rice, refried beans, and salad topped with guacamole. Everything was delicious. On the enchiladas plate it came with two enchiladas with fresh cut onions sprinkled on top of the sauce, rice, refried beans. This plate was also exceptionally tasty. The service even though it was busy was excellent. The interior you can tell is older but with a Mexican decor, pictures, and awards that added a unique charm to the place. It looks like this is a family run business that takes pride in what they do and you can clearly taste it in the food. Easy 5 stars ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ and highly recommend for a true San Antonio Mexican food experience.

Great food and service. Waitress was soo friendly and helpful with the menu. Brisket tacos are a must! The plates are delicious as well!

I was finally able to eat at this restaurant. I'm on vacation and I would normally get off work past 2pm. Today I said we're going to check it out. The brisket taco was the best brisket I've ever eaten. The meat was tender and flavored with the right amount of seasoning. The enchiladas and rice and beans and the tortillas were delicious. We will be back to get the family package for New Year's Eve and will enjoy this bringing in the Year!

2nd time eating here. The brisket is super tender and full of the smokey pit flavor. The enchilada plate was decent. Service is really good, quick food, seated immediately. But if you arrive around noon prepare for a little wait. You can avoid the lunch crowd if you can arrive about 10:50. Lots of items on the menu to try, everything has been good so far, but the highlight has been the smokey brisket both visits.

Very small, BUT GREAT RESTAURANT! There's usually a wait, but it generally moves along well and is definitely worth the wait. I've tried the pork carne Guisada, brisket taco with Avacado, enchilada plate, and fideo Loco. These dishes were on 2 different visits. The wait staff is nice and very attentive. I'll definitely be returning again.

Fantastic lunch! The staff recommended a special with two enchiladas and a slice of brisket plus rice and beans. It was so delicious and some of the best Tex-Mex I've ever had.
