"Fast service, we got our food quick. Was a lot of people there was hard to find seating but they do have an outdoor area to sit also. I got the Mexican burger and my brother got the mushroom and Swiss burger both really great they offer corn in a cup or cucumber cup as sides instead of fries if h want something different, they also have a lot of good looking sweets to choose from we were so full we didn't have room to try it but we will be back again."

"Inconsistent Experience--Great First Visit, but Disappointing ReturnWe visited twice in one week, and the experiences couldn't have been more different. Our first visit was easily 4/5 stars--the burger and fries were , perfectly cooked, and super satisfying.Unfortunately, our second visit was a major letdown. The multiple appetizers we ordered were soaked and soggy with grease, making them hard to enjoy. The fries, which were amazing the first time, were SUPER salty this time around--a complete 180 from what we had before. And the brisket egg rolls? Honestly, they shouldn't be a thing. The flavors just didn't work at all.It's a shame because we had high hopes after our first visit, but the inconsistency really stood out on the second trip."

"Update to add:The address is incorrect. This restaurant is located on corner of Babcock & Prue Rd. NOT Fredericksburg. It's right next to gas station."

Alamo Hot Dog Co.

★★★★★ 4.6 (106) • $

"We were looking for something to eat at 1 AM on a Tuesday night. Let's just say our options were limited. Found this well- reviewed hot dog vendor and we're glad we went!Got a few bacon-wrapped dogs with everything on them - grilled onions, cheese sauce, ketchup, mayo, mustard. About $8.50 apiece but they were delicious.The person owning/running the cart was super friendly as well."

Sabor de Sanchez

★★★★☆ 4.1 (129) • $$

"Me: Shoukd J write a reviewe for Sabor de Sanchez? My husband to me: I don't know.....how would you say the Sancocho was?Me: DEEEELICIOUS! I was mad when it was gone! So yes, I should write a review.The location is very small, but the food was stellar. The food was a 5. It was so good I don't even have pictures! We at it all. My husband had the Bandeja Paisa and we have Arepas de chocolo. Whew...the arepas were so flavorful and buttery. The Sancocho had a depth of flavor that only well made soups have. Regresaremos...."

El Chunky

★★★★★ 4.6 (82) • $$

"When it comes to food and customer service....This place has not disappointed. Yelp introduced this hidden gem to me about a year ago and I came back 1.8.24 wanting to see what changes have happened since my first visit. They've expanded their menu There's now music and additional seating indoors YAY! They sell funny stickers for 1.49 check the pics out!! And let's not forget their selfie window (that's what ima call it lol no ands, ifs, or butts!) Social media: TikTok, FB, Insta. Go check them out!On this day, they were having their dogs 15% off and five mini tacos instead of four. I got the keep me chunky combo Beef sausage with smoked bacon, tomatoes, grilled jalapeños, grilled onions, covered in ketchup, mayo, and mustard. Let's not forget the loaded cheese fries with bacon bits and canned soda. My forever plus one got mini tacos. Typically contains 4 but their deal offered five #Winning. They were on point! We didn't even realize that no guac was included. Can't wait to try the next dog Will continue to recommend."

The Hotdogologist

★★★★★ 4.6 (70)

"Food: ordered the original poondawg, jalapeno bomber, not so chi dog, and the pizza dawg. My favorite was the pizza dawg, and my husband loved the original poondawg and the not so chi dawg. I felt the jalapeno bomber would have more of a cream cheese taste being there was supposed to be a house cream cheese blend but it was heavy on the jalapeño mustard and no hint of cream cheese. Wasn't what I was expecting, but still ate it all lol! Luckily we didn't get the soggy buns. Thank goodness! Service was great. Friendly staff member behind the ordering counter. Ambiance: definitely a hole in the wall kind of vibe. Nothing fancy, personable, and unique. Small but still a cool spot. No indoor seating. Some tables on the outsides. They offer military, first responder, and teacher discounts. I Love supporting small businesses here in San Antonio so this was a cool little spot to try!"

"Italian Beef Sandwich was bomb! Size matters. I only ordered this sandwich and was about $11.00. No chips no drink. I only want the good stuff. No Resrooms That's my only complaint. Where am I supposed to pee or poop? They do have a hand washing station. It's ok. Nice people and they treated me right. I thanked them for the great sandwich"

Tacos Chagos

★★★★☆ 4.4 (62) • $

"The food was delicious. It was not texmex with just gravy smothered in everything. The plates were awesome so pretty! It was nicely kept and decorated. Truly enjoyed my green enchiladas and I do judge a place by its beans and tortillas and these were awesome. They did give us consome like Fideo as a starter and it was super flavorful even my son wanted more. I loved it and recommend."

Barrio Dogg

"I've been dying to try this place since I saw it on TikTok.The location is south town off Presa behind Gus' World Famous Fried Chicken. You can park on the street and I think there's a tiny area behind the building for parking. It's a small building with seating along the wall and open windows or you can sit at the bar or regular table seating. You walk up and order at the front and the girl was very knowledgeable about the hot dogs and products they use in their food. We love a cashier that knows her products it was easy to order and I was able to sit anywhere available. They play the music loud enough to drown out everyone else conversations but not yours. Lots of freestyle mixed from the 90's, love it. The service was wonderful. Someone kept coming by to check if I was doing okay, brought me a new refill and took my tray when I was done. I wanna say the owner came up and took my tray, asked if everything was good and just such a humble person. Love when owners or managers are down to earth and sincere. Let's get into the food. I ordered the Capone which is a Chicago dog, my favorite. I didn't think 1 hot dog would be enough but it was STUFFED. There was plenty of tomato, onion relish and I added bacon wrap so they used 2 slices of bacon. The hotdog itself was not scrawny either (don't you hate when that happens ) I also got the elote which freaked me out a bit because it has this fluffy foam on top like a root beer float. It was sprinkled with tajin and a lime slice on the side. I think the fluff was butter and when I mixed it with the corn, OMG wonderful, just wonderful! I ate all of it and I was full. Also, the lid on the tea was VERY secure, which is good for taking the cup to go. I cannot wait to go back and try other things."

Biff Buzby's Backyard

★★★★☆ 3.8 (44) • $$

"This place is a gem! As a mom of 2 toddlers, Im always looking for a place to go where I can chill and they can run around. The vibes at this place were great! The staff is extremely friendly, shoutout to Sasha! And the food came out extremely quickly and was so good. I also came for their 4th of July event and I'm impressed with how smoothly everything went! Highly recommend this place, especially if you have little ones."

RJ'S SNACK SHACK

"Omg this place is a hidden gem that I have driven past for years!! The place never caught my attention before until a funnel cake stand was set up in front of them. We decided to try their burgers since we were already there and wow. So good! Definitely coming back for more."

Rios Barbacoa

★★★☆☆ 3.1 (18) • $$

"My boyfriend and I bought the #1 special and really enjoyed it. The barbacoa is juicy and tasty and so greasy like it's suppose to be. The line was quick too even though there were lots of folks. I'd give it a five but I felt like one pound wasn't even to satisfy two people. We made about 11 very small tacos. Salsa not spicy."

Hometown Burger

★★☆☆☆ 2.3 (15) • $

"Here with the kiddo for the 1st time. Not bad. I had the classic bacon cheeseburger and added jalapeños. One thing to note is they put mayo on all burgers unless you ask them not to. Kudos to them for getting my burger right. The burger was excellent and the combo price is really reasonable. The patties are really thin like Freddy's or something. Next time I'll order a double meat burger for sure, but the burger was really tasty and satisfying. The fries were ehhh nah. The tots were really good though. The kiddo got a kids meal burger plain and dry add bacon. She wasn't a big fan of the burger, but that's probably because it had more flavor than she was ready for. Lol. She loved the milkshake. I'll be back for sure, it beats the McDonald's across the street easily. Certainly worth a shot. 4 stars because the fries. Get the tots instead."
