Candela Grill

This is the most authentic TexMex I’ve had! Large portions and amazing food! I had steak and shrimp fajitas and a puffy ground beef taco as we heard you had to try puffy tacos. The Charro beans were so tasty! It was all delicious and brought some home as well. The Server did not speak much English but gave excellent service. Restaurant is not fancy but the food and service was great! Would highly recommend this spot for the BEST TexMex in the San Antonio area!

First off, the food was amazing 🤤 I had the carne aside plate without nopales and fell in love. It’s flavorful, cooked right and just the right size. The charro beans were yummy and had lots of 🥓bacon. The rice was by far the best I’ve had and definitely recommend. Wait staff were attentive and really well trained. Great job Candela! 🙌🏼

Great mexican and Tex-Mex food at a great price. To be honest the plate size was more than expected and the food flavors were delicious. The atmosphere was exactly like a Hooters, Twin Peaks, Ojo's Locos type of vibe. All the servers were dressed in such a fashion as you would expect from a sports bar/ restaurant. All the servers and cashiers were very attractive. Unlike most sports bar/restaurants, the servers here were very attentive and made sure every thing was filled and good. They had multiple tv's in the establishment with multiple types of sports playing throughout.

Probably the best Mexican food I've had in the area. Great carne asada. And I'm saying this in spite of the servers' clothes; it's like Hooters or Twin Peaks. Not sure who in management decided on that, but I'm not sure it's bringing in more customers ... the food is! Can't take the environment? They have a drive-thru window. The food is so good that it's worth trying either way.

We walked in about 7pm the watrises all saw us but some were busy flirting at 2 tables we set for a little while before they came to us I ordered sweet tea to go never got the to-go cup didn't get it. Monsey brought us our food but did not come back till we almost thru eating. I have been here alot and nothing like this happened.
