Castle Hills' best places for Mexican cuisine are in our list.
“This place was absolutely beautiful on the inside and out. The word "Cafe" fits this place so well. I got carryout food, so I didn't dine in. I believe I will next time though, because the food was very good and the place had windows that let in so much sunlight, it made it feel as if you were at a cafe on the beach. This is my go-to spot for morning weekend tacos from now on.“
“My parents and I visited this place for dinner on Friday night, we weren't expecting much but still went there with an open mind, however the food was great and so was the service, the pricing on the food was extremely reasonable and we even ordered the churros for dessert which were absolutely scrumptious, I would give this place a 5 stars except for the fact that the atmosphere was a bit bland but none the less we enjoyed our time there and we would be delighted to return!!!“
“It's totally worth the wait! Not a big bakery type, dude, but the selection and quality of the bakery was awesome. And I will never complain about mimosas, so it was a win-win for everyone involved. Great atmosphere and the food was increidble!“
“Staff was super friendly. Ordered the chicharrón en salsa verde and carne asada quesadillas and they were both very tasty. Not to say those extra sauces were so good. Clean facility, nice ambiance, worth every penny. Will definitely be back.“
“Guys definitely recommend this place. As soon as you come in you see all their cute and artisan tableware. We were greeted by the sweetest server as well. They had big food portions and weren't even able to finish all our food. They make their tortillas and bread at the restaurant. Greatly recommend their tortas they are delicious ? their tacos were huge too! ? they do offer mixed drinks and karaoke after 5 till they close so go on over and show some support to this small bussiness.“
“I found this place on Instagram and am very pleased with our first visit. We came for my husbands birthday and were not disappointed. The food is amazing,the staff was friendly and the drinks were top notch ?. I will definitely be back soon. Try the Aguas Locas.“
“Food is consistently good. Very good flavor and quick service. I enjoy the Baja Fish Tacos the best and get it almost everytime I go. The restaurant is small and nothing special to see but for a quick bite it is a nice stop. The employees have always been very nice and helpful. Highly recommend as a place to go.“
“This restaurant is five out of five. La Pollo with the onions and the spicy sausage was amazing. Queso panela was amazing. You also must try the margaritas they were very tasty. The service was impeccable. Authentic, I would recommend this to anybody at least give it a try and you’ll come back for more.“
“A lot of noise, a lot of people... but it's worth it. I like that it is fast service; You order, eat and leave. And the confidence they give you to pay for what you ate, don't lie about how many tacos you grabbed, we all work for something. Ahhh, only once did I get something on my taco and I thought they would give me a discount which didn't happen, but I keep going to that place, no one is perfect.“
“Had the combo 3 beef enchiladas with alambre taco. Everything was excellent and athey had a good selection of different salsas to try. The dining area is small and the place was busy at lunch time. Ordered to go because there weren’t any tables available.“
“Celebrated a birthday at Domingo this weekend and it was such an amazing experience! The environment was stunning. The staff was extremely attentive and really seemed to enjoy their work. Along with the staff being so great, the food and drinks were even more enjoyable. From appetizers, to entree's and dessert, the entire night was wonderful and I cannot wait to do it again!“
“Went here to pick up some food online ordering was super convenient as soon as we arrived we were handed our food in drive thru. Arrived home our food was still hot the quesabirria were amazing!!! I had been looking for a go to place for birria and finally found it hubby got mini tacos and those were also so good! They had all the fixings and were stuffed. Will be going back!! Prices are also very reasonable 10/10“
“The food is excellent, especially the mole enchiladas. My only knock on this place is that it's LOUD. Eating in the little dining room is like eating in a New York subway terminal. And to make it even worse they insist on playing loud music. It's SO loud you can't enjoy your food.If you want to have a conversation with your dining partners, try to snag a table in the bar (and when has dining in the bar been quieter than the dining room?) or even better on the patio.Wheelchair accessibility: Most of the restaurants are easily accessible. Unfortunately, there are only two handicapped parking spaces. I'm not sure how they get away with that.“
“As soon as you walk in, they make you feel like family! Small but cozy place . If a big table is available, they will ask you if it's OK to share the extra space with other patrons if they're willing as well before just sitting them down without ask first. Parking is very limited as well, but we have been lucky to get parking! It is a must place to try if you haven't tried it yet!“
“Always my number one Mexican restaurant go to when in San Antonio!! Food is exceptional. Service is tiptop a little off the beaten path about seven minutes from downtown if you are staying at the Riverwalk. My all-time favorite patio is wonderful if you can get it. In the evening, it’s beautiful and the trees have twinkle lights.! Homemade chips and homemade salsa. Great job with a great team.!! Flan is the BEST I’ve ever had.Parking: Parking area is small and located in a residential type neighborhood. I definitely recommend reservations if possible they are very, very busy for good reason. we stayed downtown so it was a six minute Uber very very inexpensive“
“Well, we’re over from England celebrating my 70th birthday and the meal here this evening was easily the best by far. It will not and cannot be exceeded for the rest of our three week trip. The rib-eye was so well cooked and the mushrooms were elevated to a flavour level that I didn’t think mushrooms could reach. My wife’s fish tacos were equally as wonderful and have been recorded as having reached legendary status. Edward the chef and joint owner has a superb palate and clearly knows how to put a dish together. We’re leaving first thing tomorrow morning. If we weren’t we’d be back. Too late to change our plans. What a shame.Just go and go again. This has been the highlight of dining out not just of this trip but perhaps of all time.“
“?The only thing I would change is the attitude of the guy who was in the window for drinks. He had the ugliest attitude and RBF when I greeted him and then at the end of our purchase …. Gave us prayer hands and said enjoy…. ???… how are you gunna be rude and have an ugly attitude and then throw prayer hands at the end…… anyways, hope he finds another job cuz I would have enjoyed that place so much more without the fake namaste attitude lol?AND THE DRINKS? Overpriced … 2 drinks came out to roughly $35…. For a kombucha and a 10mg THC drink…. -_-✨However, the ladies at the food truck though… THEY WERE ALL COOL AF. And the food was ON POINT! :)✨“
“Hidden gem on the north side of town! May very well be the best tacos I’ve had in town. Had the mini taco plate with a combination of tacos - Pastor, Asada, Chicken, and Chorizo. Pastor was killer.Great friendly service, quality food, and clean restaurant. This is a must try and this will remain on my food rotation for sure.“
“What a great first visit. We were genuinely greeted as we walked in. The entire staff are friendly and truly personally know their clientele. Now the food was great in flavor and huge on portions. What great vibe and what great experience. I loved the Al pastor taco!! (Pictured) on review.“
“This taco truck was absolutely delicious! My husband and I were visiting San Antonio and found this place. Their tacos are amazing, probably some of the best tacos I’ve had in San Antonio. I have not had tacos that good in a long time. The tortillas that they use for their tacos are the cherry on top for me. We tried the tacos with the queso and our choice of filling. Their lemonade was very good too!“
“This spot is absolutely delicious. The plating on f the food is beautiful. The service is so friendly and attentive. The portions are huge! I will be coming back to try all the different dishes.Dietary restrictions: Vegetarian optionsKid-friendliness: High chairs available“
“Best Birria tacos in town hands down! I drove all the way from Harlingen, after I found out about this amazing restaurant! It was the best Birria tacos I've ever had! The atmosphere was very calm and relaxing. The music was even better! The staff is very sweet and attentive! Love love love! Highly reccomend!!!“
“!! Great experience, everyone very friendly!! The kids ate chicken and fajitas and I had a delicious barbecue! Great beans and rice!! If you don't know what to eat, 100% recommended!! (First time we eat here, we came to visit San Antonio!)“
“So delicious! We have been looking for a new regular place and this place hit the spot. The owners were so nice and welcoming, we had the enchiladas and the carne guisada which were so good. Tortillas were perfect and the chips and salsa were also delicious. Can’t wait to come back!“
“This is the reason I visit San Antonio. I live for the world’s best Al Pastor, it’s here!! I’ve tried all pastor all over the US, nothing compares. Thank you for your amazing recipe. The strawberry horchata was good. Of course, I will visit each time I’m in San Antonio!!!!“
“Being from Chicago we found this place and OMG these were ?. We ordered individual tacos and by the pound. The best one I had was the pork belly taco. All tacos are huge and can easily make 2 or 3 our of 1 taco. Salsas cilantro and cebollas come on the side. I will definitely recommend ?“
“Cuishe Is Not Tex Mex but authentic interior Mexican food by the folks that own Toro in same complex. Amazing flavors and truly hard to find items like guacamole with bugs...yes bugs crispy and toasty bites of pure protein, even my kiddo loves them! Be adventurous and try a taste of something new and authentic...ps great for date night with best tequila happy hour in SA!“
“When we walked in we were greeted by Tay she was nice and answered all the questions we had as it was our first time. Adara was sweet and remade one of our items and brought it out and apologized for the miss hap. Over all it was a great experience and we know next time we can share because it was ALOT of food!!“
“Chose this place based on google reviews because we can’t visit San Antonio without having some of the delicious Tex-Mex this area is known for.This place was so much better than 4.4 stars! The menu is extensive including breakfast, specialties and bakery items. The waitress spoke about as much English as I do Spanish and was sweet and attentive. She recommended the pollo flautas. They were traditional and delish!My guy had the pollo asada that was enough for e meals. I was worried he was going to drink the boracho bean liquid he liked it so much.Corn tortillas were some of the best house made I’ve had in years!Definitely give this spot a try. Beer and margaritas available.“
“We'd tried to go here another time but they were closed and I was sad that I didn't get the try it. The building looks like they are closing down but never fret. This time they looked closed but I stuck my head in and asked if they were open and the guy behind the counter said yes so we went in! The guy was also our server and the food was AMAZING!! We will definitely be going back.“
“The food was hot and delicious. Everything was fresh including the sweet tea. We had the carne enchiladas and chicken flautas. The enchiladas were tender and cheesy with a great tast and not so strong on the spices. The flautas were crispy and chicken was good. The beans were creamy and flavorful. The rice was great and the tortillas were amazing. What's crazy about this visit is that there were no other customers dining in or walked in during the duration of our entire visit. Service was great.“
“The food was a little above average it wasn't anything special. We stopped by this place last night after dropping off my wifes family. We were exhausted after a long day at Fiesta Texas and we were hungry. So I went on Google maps to find a Mexican restaurant and this restaurant had a 4.7 review rating. So we decided to give it a try. The nachos we ordered were good the only thing I didn't care for was they turned soggy very quickly. The caldo de pollo I ordered was very delicious. What stood out about this restaurant was the customer service and the attentiveness of the owner. He was very kind and explained everything to us. I would definitely come back to this restaurant just because of the customer service. Thank you Ernesto for feeding me and my family!!!“
“My go to for birria. I just wish you can order items separately online. When i want ramen I just want ramen but they only offer it in a combo, so I have to pay more for items I don’t want. The combo is $18 for birria ramen, one quesadilla and a soda. Please change this :)“
“Simple, solid and worth a return. Had the Pollo and Chipotle plate as well as the Beef Fajita platter. Both good. Even though it was busy, service was great too. Hadn't been there in awhile but need to come back soon for my Tex-Mex fix.“
“The foor here is so good it's stupid. The staff is very busy most of the time, but they are still very friendly and just attentive enough. The GREEN SAUCE is sexy and it knows it.They say hunger is the best seasoning, but I say whatever they are putting on that chicken marinade is. The chicken is ALWAYS juicy and perfectly cooked. Whenever I want a good grilled bird, this is where I go.I always get the pineapple agua fresca.“
“Absolutely amazing restaurant!Got seated right away even though we didn’t have a reservation, the waitress was very attentive and answered all our questions. The food was delicious, great taste and presentation and love that the water is infused with cucumber and lime!The drinks were spot on! Got El Diablo and Aguamala which had their own unique taste, one gave a kick of spice and the other a Smokey flavor. I would recommend this place for a cute date night or even wanting to try something new!The birria flautas were spot on! Very flavorful and mouth watering“
“My family ate at the original La Fonda Oak Hills when I was growing up.My mom and I tried Maria Bonita and were really pleased.First, MB kept most of the MCM décor.The food and the staff are outstanding.MB's is now my go-to restaurant for Tex-Mex.This place is a gem.“
“First time visiting this place with friends on a Sunday morning. Quick friendly service, food is fresh and delicious. Good value, Great clean atmosphere with the bull themed tables, and a Nice looking vine that grows almost All the way around the dining room. Nitto mosquito ??????? ??️ Yum yum ?“
“Nice little, "hole in the wall". The breakfast tacos are tasty and filling. Most breakfast tacos I've had from other restaurants require a double order, but one egg and bacon taco from Guerkos was plenty filling for me. Good salsa bar too. Good price point for how filling the food was as well.“
“Excellent service by Javier & delicious food ? the Camarones Laredo are top notch & omg the rice & veggies sooo yummy! I highly recommend the Tamarindo Margarita and the strawberry, but they’re all good❣️. Be sure to Ask for Javier he was awesome!!“
“My review is for the cellar wine shop attached to mixtli. I have not yet had the pleasure of dinning at mixtli (a mistake I shall correct soon).The wine shop on site is literally the best one in town and I'm obsessed with how well Hailey does with her recommendations. Seriously, all you have to tell her is the mood and price point you're after and she will hit it out the park. Every single time. Her knowledge is outstanding and I love how she shares the story behind the wine when you stop in. I am now unable to go anywhere else for wine and I'm honestly not mad about it at all.San Antonio needs more places like this in town!!“
“I went Friday night w/ my 17 year old niece, my 2 year old daughter & my mom. Fod is great especially the Gorditas! I absolutely LOVED them!! The Atmosphere, not so much. Totally not a family/ kid friendly type of place. It’s located within the same spot of an outside bar. There is no restrooms pretty much unless your 21+ or else your going to need to drive down the street. Besides that, GREAT GORDITAS :)!!“
“The owner and staff know that food is love . Very friendly and welcoming actually making the good taste better. Love the chicken fried steak and onion rings. My wife loves the Green chicken enchiladas. Parking can be hard but it's worth the trouble. Better is a dinner of bitter herbs where love is then a feast where hatred is.“
“My new favorite Mexican restaurant in San Antonio!!! Delicious!!! Tried a couple different chicken enchiladas - ? yum!Dietary restrictions: My friend is allergic to several allergens including dairy and gluten - the server and chef were very careful!!!“
“This is one of my favorite places in the city. I've been coming here for 20+ years and I've always had excellent service, great food, and the best thing of all Chispas! They treat you like family and they believe in quality. You can't go wrong at Soluna.“
“Have visited this restaurant on several occasions for breakfast! Tried several different dishes and all have been tasty. Their breakfast plates and tacos are very good! I did try the menudo here and I was not a fan. Lacked some flavor and no hominy. The menu did say it came with hominy. Also, they didn't serve the chocolate sauce anymore with the churros, but churros still delicious!“
“They do one thing, and they do it well. The al pastor tacos are cooked correct and they are the same size as you would find on a street cart in Mexico. They have Coke in a glass bottle and they found a way to make Flan even more delicious that usual, adding cajeta should be the new standard!! I'll be back every time I'm in town!!“
“Currently on a quest to find the finest tacos in the Northwest/West region. I've have tried numerous options, and so far these currently stand out as the best. The prices are quite reasonable, and the campechana tacos with the green sauce are simply delicious. The frijoles charros are really tasty too.“
“Great place to go. You can feed one to a family of four. Not much to choose from which makes it easier. There are burgers and fries for the kids but the name of the place is what you go for. My go to is the meal for two people with half a chicken, beef fajitas half a pound, and a sausage. Yum! Along with it is a side of charro beans, rice, and corn tortillas. I’m not a drinker so for those looking for a beer and dinner this is not the place for it. Family friendly. They do have two locations on Culebra, the newer place is less busy. Must check it out. I think the food is moderately priced. The meal for two, I pay $30 before tip.I’ll post a pic if I find one. I forgot to take one when I was there for dinner 7/25/23.Kid-friendliness: High chairs and noise is welcome.Parking: If it’s busy remember there is another location maybe six blocks down the road on Culebra and Colorado.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy accessible parking and entrance.“
“The food here is absolutely amazing and the service is top notch! I'm a sucker for fresh guacamole and this place gives me just that. Who knew something so simple could be so delicious! The drinks are always on point. I hate going somewhere for "drinks" and what I order comes back tasting like juice. Koodos to the bartenders! The shot flights are an absolute must to try. The atmosphere is nice and cozy. Perfect spot for a date night or small gathering with family/friends.“
