4worldlovers: Cafe Malta is a casual bistro with better-than-casual food. It’s the sort of neighborhood place you might come across on a side street in Rome or Barcelona once you get away from the tourist traps. Relaxed, unpretentious and informal, but with excellent food that uses fresh local ingredients, creatively prepared.

We're inspired by the great cuisines of the Mediterranean -- Italy, Spain, Morocco, Lebanon, southern France -- places where food is prepared with skill and simplicity to make the most of the best ingredients.

4worldlovers: Fonda San Miguel is a celebration of distinctive cuisine, colorful history and the transformative influence on Mexican restaurants across the country.

A venerable restaurant, Fonda San Miguel has garnered national and international acclaim, and continues to stay true to Mexico’s great traditions and share the fundamentals of Mexican cuisine through its authentic flavors and ties to Mexico’s ever-changing food culture.

Special menus are unveiled every other week. Ask your server for the delicious details!

Did you know Fonda now has a De La Tierra menu with savory plant-based offerings?

Our private dining room is available to rent for large parties and meetings of 40-75 people. Customized menus range from passed appetizers to pre-fixed dinner menus. We look forward to helping you create a memorable experience.

“They opened Fonda San Miguel in 1975, gradually converting the space into a replica of a colonial-era hacienda, filled with artifacts, original artwork and blooming plants. Their timing was auspicious, coinciding with a period of culinary exploration. Fonda remains the grande dame of interior Mexican cuisine in Texas.”

We are closed July 4th, Thanksgiving, Christmas Day and New Year's Day.
