Adelante Mexican Food

Karen (27 August 2008)

I found this restaurant by googling ‘healthy restaurants San Antonio’ and thought healthy Mexican food might be an oxymoron. However the restaurant, located in Alamo Heights was easy to find and very well decorated in bright colors, paintings and globes. The menu is very large, and I immediately found about four dishes I wanted to try. I settled on feta cheese taco with salad. The salad was great, with all sorts of different colors and textures. The taco seemed like a sort of quesadilla, with a flat whole wheat tortilla on both the bottom and top, filled with eggplant and other vegetables and several different cheeses. It was very flavorsome and I ended up bringing half of it home. I’m not sure if it was a low-cal meal, but it certainly was tasty. My friend ordered the spinach quesadillas, which looked more like tacos, served in curved shells. It came with brown rice and black non-refried beans. She said it was very spicy and delicious. I'll be back to try some more dishes soon.
