My girlfriend suggested I try puffy tacos while in San Antonio. Henry’s did not disappoint. I think they are the original. I was there pretty early (9:30am) and was welcomed at the bar by Michelle and Cynthia. I ordered the spicy beef and shredded chicken puffy tacos with a large El Presidente(sp) margarita to wash it down. Everything came out quickly and you could tell it was made from scratch. The spicy beef was my favorite but it isn’t spicy. However, it is flavorful, juicy, tender and delicious. The margarita was perfect. Not too sweet but you weren’t stuck in full pucker either. I spoke to Cynthia about good times to visit and she suggested spring time for Fiesta. She also described some shrimp enchiladas from Henry’s that made me hungry even after finishing off the tacos. At the end of my meal Henry, the owner, came over to say hello. My kind of place!
Never had puffy tacos before and Henry’s did not disappoint this first timer! Food was great, service was good, and atmosphere was comfortable. Definitely would recommend!
All the food was great. We came early afternoon. Personally I love the puffy tacos. It’s called Henry’s puffy tacos for a reason but the fajita skillet is all delicious. There are a few tvs for games.
I heard puffy tacos were all the rave here in town. I even googled and it looked very interesting. How does it puff? Why does it puff? The most important question, how does it taste? It’s a nice new way to bring yet another taco to my mouth. Air consistency topped with meats and veggies, flavorful as well as colorful! I thoroughly enjoyed it and wouldn’t mind coming back again. Hot food and great service, I never needed to flag anyone down, the server/ bartender was pretty much on it. This location is spacious, lively, and has festive decor. Full tables on their way to full bellies. The parking is decent too, but it can get crowded. If you live around here, I’m sure you have already heard about this place if not already tried this establishment. But, if you’re not, why not? It’s yum and puffy!
This was a fun lunch. My server made the overall experience great. I recommend the puffy tacos, obviously. I ordered one of each shredded chicken and picodillo. Both were absolutely delicious. Dont forget the chips and salsa. Highly recommend.
Casual Mexican spot, larger than most, all the usual lights/decos & music to make that atomsphere. Extensive menu with focus on the puffy tacos & margaritas. Can get busy, but this time, we went on a Monday eve. Great super crispy chips & spicy salsa provided upon seating. Service was quick, so quick that we had just received margaritas when food arrived, but we would have preferred to enjoy for a bit. Puffy tacos hold together well & lots of choices for fillings if you don't care for picadillo--which is very good. Enchiladas filled with cheddar, so not as creamy as others, but still good, & love that they offer to add onions on top, which is a must. Borracho beans excellent, refried good. Soft, hot delish flour tortillas on the side. Kitchen forgot onions on one plate, guac on another, but server noticed & corrected before we had to ask. Overall, always a good experience to hit that mexican food craving.
This place is delicious. I really like their enchiladas and especially those puffy tacos. Everything is fresh and the food comes out fast. I really enjoy their chips and dip as the salsa has a nice kick to it.
The staff is friendly and I like the vibe of this place. I definitely recommend.
Best puffy tacos anywhere. Great salsa, great meat choices, just delicious even to my taco snob family members.
Went for puffy taco's and Rita's and wasn't disappointed y'all. Had a guacamole and a picadilla/ guacamole puffy plate. Karen had a couple vegan puffys with guac and no cheese. There was a 30 minute wait, but we sat at the bar right away. Beans were good too!
Went back for the vegan puffys and enchilada plate with chicken fajitas! Best fajitas EVER! Dark meat chicken! Always been a thigh man! Tried the pina margaritas this time....awesome. Thanks for the added love you put in the Rita's and letting us hang out at the bar America!
Tried the Burrito Enchuritto Style this visit with Spicy Chicken fajitas. Awesome! The frozen sangria margarita was tasty too.
The atmosphere was pleasant, Great puffy tacos, the server was very polite, Gabriella at the front door was very friendly and professional. My server was Mike and he was really good at knowing the menu and taking care of me while dinning in. Overall I will be back again and telling my family and friends.
The waiter was courteous and the stuff. My daughter's surprise me for my Birthday by bringing me to the restaurant. And I order a Shrimp Enchiladas plate was so delicious.
Great puffy tacos, friendly staff, nice atmosphere (traditional Mexican). Took a looong time. A tad on the pricey side.
