Relax as you dine amidst La Fogata's lushly planted patios with splashing fountains and cantera stone columns, all of which create the atmosphere of a gracious Mexican hacienda. Read more

A definite must if you are in San Antonio. Best margarita you will ever have, and they keep getting better. Amazing food and atmos.

I don't like Mole anything, but I could drink their Mole sauce. I usually have it doused on enchiladas but it would be amazing with anything. You will not be disappointed! Love sitting on the patio!

Drinks were pricy, but decently strong. Carne a La Tampiquena and fajitas were delicious. Best Mexican restaurant in SA IMO.

Drinks are legit, ambiance is nice. We love it as a brunch spot- it gets rowdy on the weekend nights. The food is tasty & waitstaff friendly

Never had anything I didn’t like here. If you can't decide, they have a plate with a little bit of everything for you.

The margarita's are FANTASTIC! No wonder they are the best in San Antonio. Sit back enjoy your flaming queso & the mariachi music.

Great margaritas, salsa and guacamole. Probably the best Tex Mex restaurant in San Antonio.
Wayne SurberJanuary 4, 2012
Big huge tex-mex plates. Rice, Beans, Enchiladas. Prepare to run it off the next day. Ambience is cool here. Drinks are classic.

The best guacamole a Mano! Roasted serranos and salsa are excellent. We have never had a bad meal here.

Very cool atmosphere and good prices!'

I enjoyed my food, but if you are gluten free, this is not the place for you! Their options are very few and plain, because their sauce has gluten.
TheH2theBApril 27, 2012
The Green Enchiladas are awesome. Top Shelf Margarita or call your own Margarita are worth it!
Wyatt ZalatorisAugust 3, 2015
Tacos al pastor is a hard item to find. La Fogata did not disappoint.

Great local Mexican joint. Inexpensive and tasty margaritas. Should be on your visit list.

Great drinks... but NO LUNCH SPECIALS EVER and full of more Spanish speaking staff than English. :/
Zac NJanuary 9, 2016
Expensive but tasty. Coco loco
maria haaseMay 11, 2014
We waited over two hours for our table even though we had reservations. It was a special occasion, so definitely not ok to keep 20 people waiting like that. Will never go back there!!!
