I saw the pink building and thought Id give it a try. I decided to get the chicken fried steak after being over loaded with specials advertisements inside and out. Margarita special $1.99. You get what you paid for in this case. I paid for a light green slight alcohol with no lime flavor. My chicken fried steak was overly greasy because oil wasnt hot enough nor crispy. I guess with the lack of customers they cutting down on the heat applied to the food. My gravy cold, lumpy and I got the skin of gravy. The positive was the mashed potatoes were flavorful. The portions I actually liked because we have enough over the top stuff you and you feel obligated to eat it all because you paid for it. This type of food wasnt ment to be the death of you. It was supposed to be comfort food. My mom got the fideo loco. Again with the big portions on her dish and the grease. She actually had to get napkins to soak up the grease. Tortillas were pretty good. I wont be coming back here again if the cholesterol doesnt kill me. But if it does I know that I will have died looking young since the fat would have filled out my wrinkles.

Food was terrible. My mom got mini tacos with some onions and there werent even any onions - literally they were just skins! The bacon was super salty like it was dipped in grease. The enchiladas were covered in greasy cheese. One enchilada took up the whole plate because of how much cheese there was. I got a torta and it was soggy as in the bread was wet. Ive never had such terrible food.

The food was horrible, the tacos were greasy, asked for tacos de pastor, and was given some other meat that tasted like garlic, no taste, meat seemed to be old and refrigerated, service was bad, owner/manager seemed to be having a bad day, did not showed good customer service. Will not eat there again and will certainly will not recommend this place acquaintances or friends.

A veces algunas meseras son groseras,a veces el cocinero por ahorrarse carne en los tacos ejemplo(asada) y ya son sobras y sabe mal y me toca regresar el taco.

The tortilla soup was awesome! Huge bowel, super hot temp and filled with shredded chicken, avocado and cheese! The cashier took care of us :-) we wont come back at night...the bar music is SUPER loud and it was a mix of heavy metal, the doors and some other crap...my head hurt when we left! Its nothing too nice, but the food was good,

great food at a great price. A problem Ive had twice at this restaurant is that I have been over-charged for my meal. look over your receipt carefully. They are apparently are not very good at math. Otherwise, the food is excellent and the price is great, just as long as you make sure you are paying the right price.

The food used to be good when it was located at the corner of Cincinnati and Bandera. Now the food is not good and the service is lacking not to mention all the drunks right next door. Couldnt really enjoy my dinner with all the Mexican Mariachi yells happening next door.

ordered mini tacos and had to wait for 15 min. Once I received my food there was only 3 tacos inside, corn tortillas were like rubber, asada was mostly fat and nerves and it was NOT hot being it took 15 min to "make" Staff not the friendliest..... Never again!

WILL NOT BE RETURNING. Sunday morning and I ordered a simple order of 5 bean and cheese tacos and the cheese was expired. It smelled sour!! Also they used american cheese on the tacos rather than cheddar...disgusting and very disappointed! RECENT REVIEW

Food was extremely fresh and delicious even at 3 a.m. Ordered only 1 Mexican Plate portion was decent size. But for I person I felt it was slightly expensive! one person, one meal, drive thru, w/ no drink.or extras was almost 12$ before a buck tip

Carne a la Mexicana, Carne Guisada, Huevos Rancheros, Enchiladas... All this and many more great plates.

Second time here, and it will be my last. Rude waitress on staff. Owners charge for salsa refill, which is typically complimentary at most restaurants. Nickel and diming your customers is not good business practice. Will not return.

This is one of those instances that, Im not gonna bad mouth the place. Glad it was open for us to eat, but didnt like some of the people hanging out in front of the restaurant/ bar. Other than that, beer is good

Amazing place to eat after I get out of work. Food is amazing and waitress staff was super friendly and helped us out a lot since it was our first time there. My wife and I will definitely be returning.

Idk whats up with the drive thru chick but she had an attitude like a mother f***er. Perhaps its because shes working late or personal issues but dam...keep the coraje, but sell me the tacos haha (RECENT)

If you get off and eat with family service and food grate there drive-thru needs some work it depends on what day or time may need to wait long to order. Other then that love this place.

it´s great if you don´t want the typical fast food after midnight in San Antonio Texas on a week night. Tex-Mex food and they take "to go orders"

The tacos were greasy and tasteless, shrimp cocktail was frozen and had nasty shrimp, and even the drinks were very poor quality....Stay away!!!
