Quick stop for some breakfast tacos to go!They have a decent special with the buy 3 mix and match breakfast tacos for $5.99. I got a potato and egg and a papa ranchero. Both came out good. I like that they really filled the tacos, no skimping out on the food. The papas ranchero had some good flavor too. I didn't even need the salsa. I saw some reviews mentioned the tortillas being burned- not this time. I got flour tortillas and they were on point! No negatives at all.The service was good too. The food came out in about 6 minutes. It was a to go order, so I really just sat in the waiting area til they called me. But the ladies were nice and interactive. I definitely look forward to trying more on the menu!

This is an old restaurant and I don't mind that if the food is good. There are so many great Mexican restaurants in San Antonio, I won't be coming back to this place.I got the breakfast chicharron and egg taco. The chicharron was not crunchy and almost gummy texture. The egg was cooked well. The hot sauce was just okay. Staff: the employees look tired, but service was goodCleanliness: averageBathroom: below average and in need of a renovation

An interesting time-capsule, local restaurant. Stopped in on a recent cold Saturday morning for a breakfast taco. Place was crowded but not packed. Ordered a machacado and egg taco. The flour tortilla was horrible! The tortilla was partially scorched and hard. Tasted like it came from a major grocery store and was warmed by an amateur. And the machacado and egg was just mediocre. Ambiance: rough 1970s San Antonio family restaurant Service: decent service Overall cleanliness: averageBathroom cleanliness: below average Misc.: Pay after eating at register

Ate here this morning & they served my husbands taco plate with a dead cockroach under his tacos . We asked to speak to the manager we were told she was very busy got up too leave and we saw the manager chitchatting with the other waitresses. She wasn't busy at all but running her mouth. We told her we were not paying for the tacos because of the cockroach on his plate but she made us pay for the food anyway. She said she could only give a 10% discount off the tacos.Steer far away from this restaurant as possible unless you like added meat on your plate !!!!

Had a great experience here on a Friday! I ordered mini tacos al pastor and my kids ordered the adult fajita quesadilla plate. They served chips and salsa w/ drinks while you wait for your food. We had a great bilingual waitress, I didnt get her name but she was so friendly and gave us great customer service. My kids loved the quesadillas, they looked soo good and very cheesy!! But you have to love Tex-Mex because the beans did taste like canned beans but not horrible. Rice was good and the guac could have been a little fresher but again, they loved it since they are more into the rice and quesadillas. I added queso fresco to the mini tacos and they were amazing!! My plate came w/ charro beans, they could have been better though. If you like sweet limonada this is the place, it was delicious!! They served the limonada in a jarrito(mexican-clay-pottery mini barrel shaped cups), impressive! Again overall our experience was great, the waitress was very nice unlike when waitresses are in a bad mood in other places. For three adult plates, two limonadas, and a sprite we paid under $50 without counting the tip, great price for 3!! Service was fast but probably because there wasnt many ppl there at 5pm. Ambiance was great too, not hot, average clean, and good mexican music:)

Our waitress name was Beatriz and she recommended the shrimp nachos as her favorite and these tacos with asada and pork mix.. can you say !! Oh and she also recommended this drink to get a fresh lemonade with half pineapple and man that drink is goooooddd...10 out of 10 experience today!!

We use to come here every weekend prior to COVID. Loved the food. Tried it out again. But even the kids said it didn't taste the same. Had the menudo (that I always loved ) but now I got to watch out for the bones. Both small and large. Not the best in town anymore As my dad would say maybe " the may have changed cooks"

Food is ok service sucks the waitress don't like to wait on people cause they don't tip well. But I can understand why since one particular waitress is rude and nasty to some customers. I've seen her yell at older customers. Was in for dinner one night and had roaches crawling on the table I as at. Found hair in my food on multiple occasions. DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE AT ALL. I would give zero stars

Good food good prices. Nice staff. Clean place. Offers great selections. Tacos were good despite sitting in a foil boat of grease. Maybe drain the meat is all
