Best carne guisada in SA!!! Amazing flour tortillas!!! Salsa verde that will knock your socks off!! Go early on Saturday and Sunday as they get busy and the place is tiny.

This "Decamesa" Didn't Disappoint. Got the hungries for a late lunch and a big plate of Tex-Mex? Better get your Speedy Rodriguez on as this place closes at 2:00 pm. The lunch specials are particularly reasonable here as they include tea and it looks like there are usually 2 to choose from.

Sticking to our Mexican restaurant first time visit test, we ordered the Mexican plate consisting of enchiladas (mandatory for the test), crispy taco, rice and refried beans. We substituted a beef for a cheese enchilada (in order to try them both) for a $.50 upcharge. Finely ground beef picadillo meat is the filler for both the crispy taco and the beef enchilada, and a mild yellow cheese for the cheese enchilada. This was a good solidly satisfying plate of San Antonio school lunch gotta-have-it-on-Wednesday Mexican food (native San Antonians will know what I am talking about) and I would have no problem ordering it again. The only thing missing to bounce my synapses back to a school cafeteria memory was a square of baked corn bread. No. That's not weird. It actually tasted pretty good when dipped in a la charra beans. I guess it was cheaper than tortillas then?

Keep the substitutions to a minimum such as beef for cheese enchilada, puffy for crispy taco, borracho for refrieds, etc. as the upcharges quickly ratchet up the cost.

The flour tortillas really put the "Que Chula!" in our meal; soft and floppy with an appropriate amount of burned spots that shouted out homemade. Let me at the breakfast tacos . . . they just have to be good using these tortillas!

Nice little Decamesa (my jargon for a little Mom & Pop Tex-Mex shop with only ten tables or so) with barbacoa on the weekends.

This little place always has the freshest food each time I eat there. The prices are great and service great. In think there bean and cheese and migas are the best in the NW part of SA. Everyone is really nice and Pedro & Adriana are great, caring hospitable people, who enjoy their jobs. They have great other food on the menu for lunch, check it out.

We ordered curbside and were greeted with our food still piping hot and the individual charging us was awesome too. The food was delicious! My compliments to the chef! I apologize for not having a photo of the food that looked as amazing as it was delicious. 10/10 will be visiting again when in SA.

I've always passed this place and never went in. Went on a whim this morning because we were in a hurry. Grabbed there 10 for $10 with a few mixed tacos. The order only took about 10 mins for them to be made fresh. The gentleman at the counter was nice and the place seemed to be kept clean. The tacos were good! All five of us had them and there were zero complaints. Bean and cheese were good and the chorizo was not too greasy. We'll definitely be back to try some more of their food.

Always the best tacos and amazing beans. The beans do not contain lard or any kind of meat. Their bean and egg is worth having everyday!!

I've driven by this place a lot and have never stopped until today. I will be coming back! The waitress was attentive. The Texana plate was great and it will be getting me through my afternoon. I cleaned that plate with one of their delicious homemade tortillas and I am leaving satisfied.

Huevos Rancheros was good! Not greasy. I asked for Barbacoa with the plate and it was such a small portion. Staff was friendly.

Best breakfast tacos​ I've ever had I would even be bold enough to say the best in San Antonio. They make the flour taco shells every day. 5 dollar credit minimum so bring ca$h if you only want two tacos. Most if the stuff they make us fresh and homemade. All fresh lol! Please go and try you won't regret it.

I had the enchilada plate. It was very tasty and flavorful. The red salsa was perfect. Waitstaff is very friendly and prompt. The tortillas were homemade and not store bought. At least that's how they tasted. Definitely coming back for lunch break!
