icha’s Historia
Nicha’s Comida Mexicana is part of San
Antonio history, where we’ve proudly served
our community for more than 30 years. There’s
no other place like us in San Antonio. We’re
more than just delicious homemade Tex-Mex.
Nicha’s offers a fun, laidback atmosphere
where, when you’re dining with us, you’re part
of our familia.
The Nicha’s story began in 1977 when our
parents, Gene and Dionisia (Nicha) Garcia,
opened Minit Taco on the south side of
San Antonio. Our classic, home-style Mexican
food quickly acquired a loyal following. As a
result, we expanded three times into what is
now our original location on Roosevelt Avenue,
near the historic missions. Over the years,
all six Garcia children have worked here —
our cocina is truly a familia effort.
The Ga rcia Kid s
Dio nis ia (Ni cha ) an d
Eu gen e Ga rcia
a second restaurant on Loop 410 to serve
northwest San Antonio. Despite these
changes, certain traditions always remain
the same — great food based on our
mother’s recipes and fine style of cooking,
loyal customers and a great atmosphere
where friends and family can gather.
Bienvenidos to our familia’s cocina.
In 2003, my brother and I bought the restaurant
to continue our parent’s legacy. In honor of our
mother, we renamed the restaurant Nicha’s
Comida Mexicana. Most recently, we opened
NOTES AND DISCLAIMERS: A gratuity of 18% will be added to parties of six or more. Beef and chicken fajitas may contain MSG. All food is homemade and bones may
be found in chicken. There will be additional charges for substitutions. Those individuals with allergic reactions to peanuts should not eat mole, as it contains peanut butter.
