El Molcajete

We came here this morning and ordered a couple bowls of Menudo. Their Menudo comes with pig foot in it and it comes with all the sides like jalapeños, cilantro, onion, and the best buttery homemade flour tortillas.The waitresses are very nice and the restaurant is clean and what I like is its nice and quiet inside and not overly crowded if you're in the Austin Highway and Eisenhower area definitely stop by and check this place out. I've had their lunch plates before and they're just as delicious as everything else.

This is one of my go to take out options! Their Tortilla Soup is fantastic and easily feeds my wife and me. The broth has wonderful depth of flavor. Plenty of chicken and generous sides. I've eaten in once and it was fine, but I love them for the soup. It's a great value too!

Fair selection, fair food.I chose to meet a long lost buddy of mine at El Molcajete. The restaurant is clean and the staff gets its done. If you want it, they get it to you. Chips and salsa, were standard - I noticed that the salsa was not runny.I ordered the enchiladas verdes and a chalupa (on the side). It was good. The charro beans were really full of flavor without being salty.This place is worth a try.

I found this place while searching for something nearby. My son was hungry and works nearby. Placed a phone order for 6 tacos - 1 chorizo egg, 1 potato egg, 2 potato bacon egg, 2 bacon egg cheese....all for $13.71 anyplace else I've placed a similar order would be at least $10 more. I dropped off the bec tacos to my son. I ate the chorizo egg. OMG, super yummy!! Fresh tortilla and just the right amount of chorizo grease dripping!! I glanced at the menu and will be planning a breakfast trip with my mom soon.

The molcajete was acidic and the meat was tasteless. The rice and beans were ok. The waiter (Quique) was rude to my wife, telling her the chicken street tacos were a children's order, implying my wife was a child. It was a disappointment overall for over $54 investment. What's worse, we had to wait 40 minutes for our meal to be delivered.

poor service, cold food, left hungry. Asked staff to shut off ceiling fans, never happened.ordered caldo de res from the menu, never happened, ended up with cold tortilla soup and a stiff neck,no heat in the restaurant Go some where else.....they are on walzem avesan antonio tx 78218

Brought one of my safety managers here for lunch today. We were both first timers but we won't be last timers. Great menu selection, great service, and great food are all reasons to return. He had the enchilada plate which he enjoyed very much, and I had the barbacoa plate which I enjoyed very much. Worthy of a bookmark and a try if you're passing through, or if you live or work near-by.

I have been trying to go here for years. Really. Something always came up preventing it happening. Well, I finally got to go for a late lunch. I had gone to three other establishments before going here. They are open until 2200. So, for a late eater like myself, it's perfect. I was indecisive when I went, so I asked the waitress what her favorite meal was, & told her I can't eat much. She recommended the cheese enchilada plate, either the regular or the child's plate. I went with the regular, knowing I'd only eat the enchiladas. It comes with a crispy beef taco, three enchilads, a little lettuce & tomato slice, beans & rice, with tortillas. I ate the little salad & enchiladas. That filled me up.I made bean tacos with the tortillas to take home. Now, the tortillas were not really that great. As a San Antonioan, I take pride in the tortillas in our town. These were not that good. They were actually hard.Still for take home bean tacos, they're meh. To drink I got horchatta. I'm sure like every other place around me, it's from a mix as it tasted just like others. You know when it's made fresh & when it's a mix. The plate is huge. It is truly two meals. If you eat this entire plate, it is easily over 2000 calories. No! That is too much food, unless you're running ‍ ‍ every single day. But, I will be back. The staff is very sweet, friendly & helpful with selections. I normally ask the staff for recommendations, unless I have a meal in mind. I have checked in twice, but the 1st one was during the peak of COVID & they weren't open. Discovered after I checked in. So, the deduction of one star was due to the tortillas. I'll change it next time, if deserving.

To start off the chips and salsa are great without salt !The lemonade is 5 stars in itself lol ( I recommend )My girlfriend ordered the beef fajita tacos and may I say these were the most tender and flavorful quesadillas I've had in a good while!I ordered the caldo de Rez (beef soup) and I had no fat in my caldo, the meat was soft yet tender and juicy to every bite; the rice was delicious as well and did I mention the lemonade ? My pops got the order of asada mini tacos and they looked delicious, he didn't offer any and stayed quiet the whole time. So I know the food was good because he would of said something at least once lol. My mom ordered the grilled fish, and gave me a piece of her order and the fish surpassed my expectations. Needless to say compared to how this place looks on the outside, the food passes your expectations. P.s. Try the lemonade

Ordered breakfast. It's hard to mess up breakfast. While the meal was good, the tortillas were dry and slightly hard. They were fresh, but like it had too much lard (or what ever they use.I would still have been okay with the meal, but when I went to pay the total seemed a tad high. I paid and requested a receipt. Upon giving me the receipt, the cashier made a dash to the kitchen. Not a big deal, but upon inspection I had an extra item added to my ticket. I stood and waited and waited and even asked a waitress if she could get the cashier.She never showed up. I left and decided to report this on Yelp!Note that the receipt shows 1 meal $6.99, open food $1.00, open food $2.00 drink $2.99 (way expensive). The only extra was a sweetbread for $1.00. So, what was the other $2.00 for? Never got an answer.
