The food was great, we are from Houston and always try to eat at places outside the mainstream. Food was fresh quick and hot,tortillas, corn and flour superb. This will be our place to eat now. I will recommend this place to all my friends and family.
Been eating here for years. The food is great, and never have to wait a long time for your order.The staff is always friendly and attentive, I highly recommend this restaurant !
Wonderful and unexpected place to get a great lunch! What seems like a hole in the wall place, seems to be where I find the most flavorful food and experience!
The staff are super friendly and welcoming! Fast service and a great meal! The chips were crispy, salsa was well balanced and not overpowered with cilantro like most places! I ordered the Mexican plate and chose chicken enchiladas and double crispy tacos! The tacos stayed crispy throughout the meal and never got soggy like most do, the enchiladas were filled with flavorful chicken! Definitely got my money worth!
Tortillas were outstanding and in my top 3 of best in San Antonio!
We showed up around 10AM on a Sunday with three people and said we would have at least four more, or maybe eleven more. They didn't blink. They have a big table in the back that seats 10, which they gave us, and we eventually had nine. The place was packed by 10:30, but service was great. The food was all delicious. The corn tortillas are made there and were excellent. Prices were totally reasonable. Definitely want to go back.
We have been here during the week and it's crowded since they share a parking lot with a Dr.'s office and other businesses. But today was Sunday at 10:15 am, I did not expect an available table and was not looking forward to a wait. The crowd did not show up until 10:30, we snuck in before the after church rush!!! As always, Oblate Cafe delivered. The food was great. The Carne Guisada was tender and delicious. The chilaquiles and migas were eaten in a flash. Now the tortillas had to be the best I've tasted outside of a relatives kitchen. Come hungry!
Food is good. Their tortillas are a tad too thick IMO but the inside is amazing. Super friendly and fast service. The atmosphere is a typical old school tex mex restaurant
Only had the menudo but was good staff was friendly food was reasonably priced.
So comfortable and casual for an enjoyable meal. The prices are reasonable and the food delicious. I am a fan of flautas and these were perfect. I recommend for good Tex-Mex.
The overall feeling/vibe that comes from this restaurant is that of home made. No matter what type of mexican household you grew up in, the food served here will, in one way or another, remind you of homemade breakfast. The staff were all extremely nice. If I could improve one it would be the implementation of a waiting system. When my group and I got there we had to arrange our own tables not knowing if they were being used by someone else or not. Besides that, great food at a great price. Would come again. Recommend
The Carne Guisada is the signature dish here and is excellent. The cheese enchiladas were made with red corn tortillas, which makes them perfect. The flour tortillas were homemade, and great was well. Hot sauce was good, but chips were cold and stail tasting but were free. Price was reasonable for what you get. Locally owned and operated, this family business really puts their heart into the food they make. This restaurant and Esmeralda's are two of the best hidden jewel Mexican restaurants in San Antonio.
Great food, Great prices, Great service 5 stars!
Best place to come for breakfast tacos. My favorite taco is defiantly the barbacoa tacos which you can only get on the weekends. The best part of the delicious tacos are the homemade flour tortillas, made fresh. So you better get in early so you don't have to wait cause they do get busy.
This place has been part of my life for 15 plus years it was a place my parents told me about and they loved how down to earth it was they have now gone to heaven and I still go there and have introduced it to many, the ladies have become like family, sisters, aunts, the family members we love to see we have cried together, we have celebrated birthdays together and for sure we have laughed together and we still do, Maria, Rosie, Sarah, Rubies, Flor and Joe one of the cooks and the rest of the staff are fantastic and the lady that makes the hot home made tortillas reminds me of those days when I was young and if you sit close to the kitchen door you can smell them being made like grandma's house, the food is great I haven't gotten tried of in 15 years breakfast, lunch, dinner can't go wrong, ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤎❤️❤️🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎🤎
