Reviews for La Fogata Comida in San Antonio, TX
Most fantastic food and service I've had in San Antonio in the past 50 years. They have it all. Parking, a massive amount of... seating, incredible bar staff, house made everything and mole worth driving down from Austin about once a month. Table sideprep of flaming cheese or guacamole ????. Margaritas frozen or rocks are a must. If the weather is to your liking ask to siton the patio. Plenty of space for large parties Read more
Excellent place with great indoor and outdoor dining options. Thoroughly enjoyed the ambiance and courtesy of the waitress. The... place has variety of menu and beverages to choose. You’ll also get a complimentary photo of regular/small size of guests withrestaurant name and background. If willing, you can buy enlarged ones with frames. Overall had a pleasant dining experiencehere. Read more
This place was recommended to me by a friend but we were very disappointed. The hostess wasn’t very welcoming. The food was... edible. That’s about all I can say. Rice and beans super bland. I had the Verde Enchiladas and definitely not worth the $17tag on the plate. Enchiladas were decent but not worth going back for. I think the atmosphere is great but that’s about it.Better luck next time. Read more
9:00pm Friday night wait time (according to the hostess) was an hour. We were able to order drinks ahead while we waited for our... table. Several couples left and our wait time was cut down to 20 minutes. Top shelf tequila was used for my margarita. It wasgood, a little on the strong side, but it was still ok. The hubs ordered a Michelada with Pacífico beer and said it was goodbut was too peppery. It looked like they used real pepper corns but were too coarse. I enjoyed the chips and salsa, salsa wastasty and had a lot of flavor and a nice kick to it. My son and I ordered Tacos Norteños and the fajita inside the tacos wasvery savory. It had beans in the taco as well but nothing excessive. I enjoyed the cabbage and prefer it to lettuce as itcomplimented the taco with a fresh, crisp texture in every bite. I expected a little more avocado as my two tacos only had asingle sliver of avocado in it. The tortilla itself in my tacos were slightly crispy and soft at the same time. I enjoyed thetaste as well. I could taste and smell the cast iron skillet they were seared on. I particularly enjoyed the rice as it tastedauthentic and none of the seasoning was overpowering. Beans were ok but I've definitely had better. My husband said that my mommakes better beans a la charra from a can, soooo...lol. My husband had Tacos al Pastor and he got 3 tacos and were obviouslynot authentic because they don't have an actual trompo where they actually slice the meat off of the vertical spinning top withthe pineapple on the kebab. Anywho. He gives it a 3, as tortillas were not Homemade and we've had the luxury of eating Tacos AlPastor from an authentic tacos al pastor place. Lastly, our 6 year old was very satisfied with his cheese enchiladas. He is abig fan of enchilada plates, and was able to eat 2 of the three enchiladas from his adult portioned plate. He enjoyed his riceand beans as well. We enjoyed the atmosphere and our waiter was very attentive, conversational, likeable. Read more
Delicious. Fast, clean and friendly service. Salsa tastes great but it's spicy. Taco we're delicious, fajitas we're yummy and... strawberry Margaritas we're really good and strong too. Read more
Drinks were great, slightly overpriced, but mostly worth it. Nothing too special about the food. Standard Mexican/Tex-Mex with... nothing that stood out. The waitress was awesome, she helped the experience better. Even though she had a party table of 20ishpeople, we didn't feel neglected. We never saw the manager make any rounds and the hostess was lacking in knowledge of therestaurant, both the history ND the running efficiency of checking in to being seated. Read more
This place has been my personal favorite for Mexican cuisine for nearly my entire life, since I lived in San Antonio as a... youngster! I try to eat here whenever I'm in town for a visit. The food doesn't disappoint! The ambiance is so relaxing andfun (although I do miss the McCaws). So much outdoor seating with great plants and fountains! Very good margaritas, too! Read more
We had an amazing lunch today! We ordered rib eye steak and shrimp with margaritas. We love the staff! So attentive! Food was... great and so were the drinks! One of our favorite places to visit. Read more
