NICHA’S HISTORIA
Nicha’s Comida Mexicana is part of San Antonio history, where we’ve
proudly served our community for more than 36 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, laid-back atmosphere where 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.
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. In 2009, we opened a second restaurant on Loop 410
to serve northwest San Antonio, and then we recently opened our third
location in Live Oak, Texas. 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.
