Ten stars! The food is amazing. I started with a watermelon margarita. We had the guacamole and queso for appetizers. My dinner was the calabacita con puerca empanadas and the vegetable tacos. Absolutely delicious. Our waiter Luis was fantastic. I cannot recommend this place highly enough!
Found Beto’s while looking for some triple d spots in San Antonio. This place was on point. Had the 3 item combo with fish taco, taco al pastor, and poblano chicken empanada. So much food and very tasty. A must stop for Triple D’ers and anyone looking for that something different.
I arranged to meet a friend at Beto's mid afternoon because I knew it would be quiet enough to have a conversation. She's new to San Antonio and took my advice about Beto's wonderful food. To my surprise she ordered the fish taco with the question to our server, "Are your fish taco's really the best in SA?" Well, she agreed they were. I just got my usual guava cream cheese empanada, my treat every time I'm in that area of town. Beto's rocks!!!

Okay, I’m a foodie. The fact that I ate a late lunch/ early dinner here yesterday, and returned today speaks volumes! Yesterday I enjoyed the three piece combo platter with the La Pastor and fish tacos, and the chicken jalapeño empanada. The winner was the savory and well spiced Pastor; though the soft and flavorful fish tacos with slaw were lovely. The delicate pasteri-ed chicken empanadas were lovely, although I salased them up, The pinto beans were well cooked and flavorful, the rice was unsurprising. The dessert of banana Letche and pecan empanada was special. Having had a great meal yesterday, I returned today for the guacamole,!jicama salad, and black bean soup. The guacamole was flavorful and both smooth and chunky on a bed of shredded lettuce, the chips crisp and non greasy with a warm salsa. The black bean soup was smoky and creamy with moderate heat- spectacular— served with forgettable corn bread chunks. The dressing on the jicama salad was nice, but it seemed that there was overmuch lettuce to balance the toppings of jicama, mandarin and onion. So if feeling carnivorous go for the Pastor and fish tacos. If trying for herbivore get the guacamole and bean soup, and skip the jicama salad. Yummy food that warranted two visits within 24 hours.
Haven’t been here in awhile but yesterday’s visit for lunch was amazing! Newly redecorated and updated but more importantly the food was outstanding- give it a try soon.
Great food AND service
Not realizing they were scheduled to close at 9:00, we arrived at 8:55... The staff was courteous and seemed genuinely happy to seat and serve us. (There were still a couple of tables occupied.) The ceviche was excellent. The margaritas were top notch. Our mix of fish, beef and chicken tacos were all outstanding. We topped it off with their signature banana/Mexican caramel empanada. A perfect ending to our San Antonio visit.

It had a good texture, was on an excellent tortilla with slaw and cilantro (but not too much) and topped with a creamy poblano sauce. It's served with a small ramekin of chimichurri, in case you think the lily needs gilding. I see from this meal why people get so excited about fish tacos.
If you're a fish taco lover this is the place. Voted number one fish tacos in San Antonio. The empanadas are fantastic too. Great crust. I'll be back.
Easy to get to with friendly staff. Empanadas are great and the red chile with beef one was excellent. Taco pastor also good. Chips were from a bag and so may have been the cheese dip. Inside music was an older gentleman at the keyboard which my kids loved, especially when he play Charlie Brown. Great place overall.
Good food and a fun atmosphere.
Service - ehh, not great but not bad. Could use a little work.
Beer - Let me suggest more selections on draught and faster refills.
OTW Beto is doing great job.
And don't forget the desert empanadas...
It is our first time here and we really enjoyed it. The food is excellent, the mojito and margarita (what we had) good enough to get seconds :) ... The staff was friendly and service was quick. Everything you can wish for. We will definitely be back.
Wonderful atmosphere and the food is good. The empanadas were really good. Service was okay not great but a good place to sit back and take your time.

I had heard about the place from someone who used to live in the area...
I was on the verge of hangry and didn't want to go anywhere else!! Fortunately we were seated ASAP. (In town for a short vacation) no wait on this Fri night...
If you haven't been here it's worth waiting at least one time. There are many Mexican food spots in this area from checking the map but do yourself a favor - Go here - enjoy the atmosphere and food.
The drinks looked to quench thirst... Dry January for me ...
The empanadas are the bomb (if you like seasoning and I'm not talking salt and pepper "spices") I had the mouthwatering chicken empanada, also a pork Verde empanadas... And a chicken taco of some sort. Holy food coma it was tasty! The Peruvian rice and beans was a stellar compliment as I cured my starving with a finale ... The banana pecan leche empanada... All was very plentiful and filling.
Get in here and get filled on the offers they provide!!!!
Only knock was I don't carry much cash. No biggie. Cash discount... But I get it on the card game ..
The girls had a blast afterwards when I promised when my daughters spotted the play area in the back. All in all it was a fantastic experience!

Beto’s Alt-Mex! New favorite brunch spot! Cute authentic decor and a seat yourself option. The Horchata was delicious. We ordered Beto’s Plates and some Pozole, with the option to have it as an appetizer. The pozole was so flavorful and hearty, tender chunks of pork, generous hominy. The empanadas were really good and the quesadillas were stuffed! Due to the large portions, this meal was literally breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We’ll be back to try out the other offerings…oh…and, Y’all…there’s a DRIVE-THRU!
Delicious empanadas, breakfast is no longer served on the weekends 😒. Artsy feel inside, patio is really nice. Live band on Saturday & Sunday. ☺️ Tequila flights, Happy hour all day Sunday. On point service and friendly staff. Limited parking in front, lots of parking in back.
Decent food and service. Try the chicken empanadas! The nachos were okay, but a bit too dry for my liking. The fish tacos were mediocre so i would avoid those. The service was fine. The location isn’t amazing though.

Mexican cuisine in SATX has been redeemed, all hail the delightful staff and outstanding food being offered at Beto's. Salsa - they offer a red, green and diablo, all cooked and served warm. No easy feat in the salsa game, but they've got it down pat. Tacos de calle - Street tacos, check. While they don't offer my favorite, barbacoa, the carne asada was quite near perfection in taste and portion size. Sides - a generous portion of charro beans, which are normally a cheap after thought...not here. They actually season them and add a little imagination, add a little salsa and we'll let's just say your tongue gets real happy and your taste buds start the happy dance. Finally there's the blistered jalapeño that just makes you thank the food Gods for directing you here. In the midst of a plethora of so-so Mexican restaurants that have forgotten their mission, this place is a Gem. I might add that the decor alone is worth the trip. The take-out containers won't soak your seats and reminds you that someone cares about your experience. I was given a tour of the patio, because, well my Host said 'No, no, you have to see it', more than enough encouragement for me!
Five stars for the empanadas alone! I was very pleased with the entire meal, but the empanada really stood out to me. Flaky yet tender crust, and the filling was super flavorful. The grilled fish taco was great also, and it was really nice to have a hand made tortilla. Very impressed, and my coworkers and I plan on returning.
I came to Beto's for their famous fish taco, and was not disappointed. It's got a perfect balance of crispy warm fish to a cool tangy slaw, all wrapped in a tortilla and delicious. It didn't even need any of the provided salsa. I also tried the chicken poblano empanada, and that was probably my favorite. Super crispy buttery pastry around a chicken filling that reminded me of chicken pot pie, but with a hint of spice and acid to balance out the richness. Really good.
I googled “Michelada” close by and this restaurant popped up. Given that I live in the area, I decided to stop by. I wish I had known about this place sooner!!! What a treat! The michelada was Amazing and I’m a pretty tough miche critic. The owner was on the floor and was extremely helpful as well as my waitress. He recommended their strawberry infused Jalapeño margarita (I was again skeptical on how this could taste). It actually tasted like a strawberry lemonade!! 🤤 Dangerous, I know. My meal consisted of the fish taco plate, a cup of pozole… perfect pozole btw. And a cup of the fideos and corn. Needless to say, I will most def be returning. Their open back patio is the perfect setting to bring and treat clientele.
Great atmosphere and great food. Love the authenticity of everything and the flavor & freshness of it all down to the colorful drinks. But there ks a bit of a wait so don't go here starving lol. I'd definitely come again and leave room for dessert this next time.
Absolutely amazing food! In town visiting and Beto's seemed like a good choice, and we were definitely right about that! The banana and pecan empanada is one of the best things I have ever tasted.
