No other restaurant in the United States has been more important in shaping the often nebulous definition of Mexican food.
Opening Fonda San Miguel in 1975 was an uphill battle – working to earn the appreciation of diners accustomed to Americanized Tex-Mex staples like shredded lettuce and orange cheese. However, the high standards remain uncompromising, adhering to authenticity, importing many Mexican ingredients and eventually planting its own garden on-site. With its dual focus on food and art, Fonda San Miguel continues to flourish and its long-range impact on Mexican food in Texas and the United States continues to garner national and international acclaim.
Fonda San Miguel is recognized as one of the innovators in changing the perception of Mexican food, not just in Texas, but nationwide.
