Fidelo's Mexican Restaurant

If you’re craving authentic Mexican flavors right in the heart of San Antonio’s northeast side, Fidelo's Mexican Restaurant at 10929 Nacogdoches Rd is a must-visit destination. This charming eatery offers a genuine taste of Tex-Mex with a focus on homemade quality and hearty portions that keep locals coming back for more.

Step inside Fidelo’s and you’ll immediately notice the warm, unpretentious atmosphere that makes it feel like a neighborhood favorite rather than just another chain. The aromas alone—freshly made flour and corn tortillas, sizzling meats, and slow-simmered sauces—will awaken your appetite. Their signature breakfast tacos are a beloved stand-out, bursting with vibrant flavors from fillings like barbacoa and bacon & egg wrapped in their renowned homemade tortillas. Whether you choose the Chilaquiles Verdes or Rojos, the Huevos Rancheros with Barbacoa, or indulge in their Carne Guisada Plate, every bite speaks volumes about their commitment to traditional recipes crafted with care.

Lunch here is equally satisfying. Try the Gordita Plate, featuring two handmade gorditas loaded with your choice of shredded chicken or ground beef, accompanied by savory rice, refried beans, and fresh tortillas. Or dive into their Chile Relleno Plate—poblano peppers stuffed with cheese or beef, bathed in spicy ranchera sauce. For a lighter option, their guacamole and fajita salads provide fresh, crisp, and creamy textures that balance perfectly with the heartier dishes.

Complement your meal with a refreshing Mexican Coke or a chilled glass of Topo Chico, and don't miss the chips and salsa, which are remarkably fresh and addictive—ideal for sharing. Loyal customers rave about the freshness of the food and especially praise the “best tortillas hands down,” which truly elevate every dish.

While the restaurant's straightforward charm occasionally means you might need to ask for utensils or tortillas (as one visitor noted), the friendly service and unmatched flavors more than make up for these small quirks. The locals adore Fidelo’s not only for its delicious food but for its authentic, no-frills approach to Tex-Mex classics—true comfort food served with a smile.

If you plan a weekend visit, brace for a potential wait; regulars agree it’s a “gauntlet” on Sundays but wholeheartedly confirm it’s “oh so worth it!” From breakfast to dinner, Fidelo’s Mexican Restaurant is a vibrant celebration of San Antonio’s rich culinary heritage—flavor-packed, welcoming, and delightfully satisfying.
