50 Best Tex-Mex Restaurants near Kirby

“I gave four stars only because the food didn't really taste fresh. I'm not saying it was bad but it seemed like it was warmed back up. Like I said it wasn't bad, but the tortillas were the worst. I opened the tortillas and they were hot fresh and super soft but after like 2 mins they got hard and kinda crunchy 🤷. The staff was nice.“

“We came all the way from Leon Valley to try Maria’s Cafe, and it was absolutely worth the drive! This little hole-in-the-wall spot has such a homey, welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel comfortable the moment you walk in. It was our first time eating here, and we were so impressed.

They made our food exactly the way we wanted it, paying attention to every detail and making sure everything was just right. You can really tell they care about their customers and take pride in what they serve.

We’ll definitely be coming back for more. If you’re looking for a cozy place with great food and friendly service, Maria’s Cafe is a must-try!“

“Always tasty , filling ,for a amazing price! hands down better than any place that is similar near by.. super friendly help staff !!! Cozy cafe environment !!just wish it was open after 3pm“

“El Milagrito Cafe In San Antonio Texas.💯🙏“

“Great food good prices in downtown San Antonio.“

“Pico De Gallo Mexican Restaurant.💯❤️“

“If you are a tourist, go off the beaten path to Pete'sTako House to get some delicious Tex-Mex. I tried some Tex-Mex on the Riverwalk and it did not compare to how good Pete's was. Get their al pastor nachos and you won't be disappointed. Great tortillas too and i believe they are made fresh in house. Great vibe in the restaurant and very friendly waitresses. Highly recommend.“

“I went there with a bunch of my college friends and honestly everything was great. Chips and salsa was excellent and the guacamole tasted great. We ordered a few top shelf margaritas pitchers and they were just as strong as he said they would be. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately my friends were being rude and lying about what they ordered once they saw the price of the bill. Felt kind of bad for our server because our experience couldn’t have been any better.“

“My grandparents owned several businesses in the area and as a child we would go there for lunch. I visited the restaurant last Wednesday for the first time in over 60 years. The food and service were excellent and authentic. I visited with several staff members to share my story and found the staff to be friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend visitors to San Antonio to eat at the Blue Moon.“

“Had a great meal last week. And I almost forgot to leave a review!... Food came out quick, server was nice and attentive. Restaurant seemed packed but the flow of people in and out was just right. I had the mini tacos. But I hear the green enchiladas are some of the best as well. I enjoyed my tacos, here is a quick pick of the delicious plate 🍽“

“We love us some barbacoa from here! All meats the best!!!“

“You cannot go wrong with Chuy’s. It’s not a Michelin star restaurant, it’s not fine wine dining, it’s perfect at what it is, which is comfort. All the times I’ve been the staff is friendly and the food is great! Probably the best item in my opinion is their jalapeño ranch dipping sauce, and the know it because you can buy it in bigger sizes. The decor is whimsical and fun too! Gives you plenty to keep distracted by during wait times! Also makes for a great social atmosphere :)“

“Rios Barbacoa #2 was amazingly delicious! The barabacoa, tamales and beans are a MUST you must try! The phenomenal customer service that makes you feel like family was an additional PLUS! I recommend anyone wanting the BEST barbacoa and tamales stop at Rios Barbacoa #2 Deco District! That will definitely be our choice always for our family breakfast traditions!“

“Always great food service and outstanding quality.“

“Food was good Waitress was really nice“

“Delicious I tried everything must go place“

“Best carne guisada in town“

“Love the brisket and carne guisada with cheese tacos …. So delicious . Breakfast or Lunch….. you can’t go wrong… Friendly staff … love Elsa , girls and Dad….“

“Perfection. 5 out of 5 stars. We stop here every time we drive out west. It never disappoints!“

“The Spinach Omelete is my favorite and is always cooked to perfection. I usually add jalapeño and mushrooms. Unfortunately, after waiting, I had to choose another dish as they were out of Spinach? It happens I guess.

So I chose their Machado plate as a last resort and was pleased with my meal. I've had their Menudo in the past and it's very tasty as well....lol, I probably should have just ordered that, but it wasn't the weekend yet.“

“When in San Antonio for a convention, we had the choice opportunity to enjoy some good eats from “Big Dub’s Munchie Madness” Good fresh ingredients verified and it comes through in flavor. Clean kitchen. Super quick. Great people serving up some yummy favorites. Thanks guys!“

“The best tortillas! I eat 10 buttered tortillas dipped in queso and 50 chips before my meal even arrives. Some of the best Mexican food, which is saying a lot in San Antonio! And tasty, strong margaritas! Can’t wait to go back again and again!!!“

“Our waiter and the entire staff was friendly and helpful“

“Our favorite San Antonio area Chili’s“

“We don't travel often to this location, but the staff is always friendly and the food is delicious. It is worth the price we spend. I typically don't enjoy refried beans, but this place has delicious beans. I recommend this to all.. the bean cups are sooo delicious. Make the trip to try it out.“

“I had an absolutely fabulous experience at Teka Molino on Eighth Street in San Antonio! From the moment I was greeted by Victor. I felt welcomed and well taken care of.
There are so many food options — perfect for bringing the whole family! I chose the tacos and was pleasantly surprised — they reminded me of the authentic Mexican food I used to enjoy at my best friend’s home during college breaks. The salsa brought back memories of her mom’s cooking, and the chicken was exceptional — moist, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned.
But honestly, the best part was the service. Victor and Heri went above and beyond to make the experience special.
Do yourself a favor: say hello to Victor and Heri, tell them you read this review, and don’t forget to order the puffy tacos and the green chicken enchiladas — top-notch! Thank you, guys, for an amazing experience, I WILL be back!!!“

“Great atmosphere, got a table fast, food was delicious, server was very nice answered all my questions ? (I asked ALOT, sorry??‍♀️) drink was great ? ? ? ? everyone that was around us you could tell was having a good time and enjoying the food as well.. it was nice..

Dietary restrictions: I was allowed to order off the kids menu. Alot of places don't allow that, I was thankful for that, because I've had weightloss surgery so I can not eat much at all. I couldn't even finish the food from the child's menu, I had to take home. THANK YOU FOR ACCOMMODATING ME! And allowing me to order of the kids menu .. ?“

“Went through the drive thru 5/30 and Blair was working. She was awesome. She is the epitome of how service should be. The food is great but again Blair made the food taste better just by her service!!! Definitely 5-stars and she deserves the kudos. It’s is hard to find someone who is enthusiastic at work nowadays. MM you need to find a way to keep her happy.“

“I need to mention this work appreciation and recognize the work and dedication of these valuable women in preparing each meal. Melissa, the manager, and her great team: Jenny, Madison, Sam, Tiffany, Rocio, Veronica, Sara, Jackeline, etc. All of you make up this great group of hard-working women, so I give True Texas Tacos ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ golden stars❗

Simply delicious, OMG How we enjoy them, but need to mention all the salsas they have, they are tasty.
I highly recommend them!
Soon I'm gonna try the pizza!“

“It was a great experience. The service was on point and the food was great.“

“Another great meal at La Fonda. We shared the "Chip & Dip" platter (excellent guacamole, queso, an a spicy ,smoky, fresh salsa). My wife had the Fajita Enchilada platter (very good and far larger than she could eat at one sitting). I had the Tamale platter (two pork + 1 jalapeño and cheese) which was simple and very good (loved the Charro bean accompaniment). Our drinks (Santa Margarita and Red Pear Sangria) were both excellent and refreshing. Service was attentive but not intrusive; the noise level in the room was high due to several large parties and the acoustics of the secondary indoor room at the restaurant.“

“We love Garcia's will travel from Austin to SA just for their breakfast.“

“Chili's chilling! Sat in the bar area and Joy, the server/bartender was phenomenal! Besides working several tables in the bar she was so delightful and attentive. They must say she knows how to make a Long Island iced tea. Had the margarita chicken dinner with a salad which was brought out by Nos, He also is super nice always asking to make sure the food was delicious. Even the night time manager on duty stop by to ask how everything was. Lots of monitors plenty of sports solid food and reasonable prices. If you're staying in one of the hotels nearby, or live in the general area you should certainly give this Chili's a try.“

“very professional employees“

“4 out of 5 stars this time. They weren't super busy today so service should've been spot on. Our wait person was very polite, but once the food arrived, we asked for salt and pepper, as well as tortillas. The salt and pepper didn't arrive until we were done eating and the tortillas never arrived. However, the food was good and the restaurant was clean.

They didn't charge us for the requested tortillas, so I assume the wait person simply got distracted and forgot about them.

Hopefully, next time will be better.“

“I would say THE TEAM MEMBERS. Always working hard to keep the customers happy. Christina , Faith , and Dorian have definitely brightened up the restaurant by 100%. since they started there. I appreciate the fact that they come in ready to work regardless of what may be going on in their personal lives. PROFESSIONALS ! Thats rare these days. Everywhere you go employees always seam to forget where they are. Bringing drama to work... SMH. We need more employees like the first 3. 🥰🍔🥪🥑🏪🩷💯🫶“

“My waitress Aubrey was amazing. She was friendly, attentive and got my order perfect. The food was amazing.“

“We stopped in to celebrate our son's 12th birthday, his wish was to go plane spotting as a family. My husband remembered from his childhood how close the planes would fly while coming in to land at the airport so we decided to visit again. Best choice ever! The staff is kind, courteous and attentive. The patio is absolutely perfect for plane spotting! It is beautiful with an amazing garden themed atmosphere. My son was so happy and smiling so big with the massive planes flying into the runway. Thank you Nicha's! 🥰“

“Great service & the food was delicious“

“This place has been on my list for years. I can definitely say it was worth the wait! Few things that could be better is using fries for huevos ranchero plate. They were good just usually like cut potatoes with my plate. The other was the restrooms situation being that there's only 2 restrooms right in the dining room. Besides that everything was perfect. The tortillas are 100% amazing 😍
My over medium eggs were executed perfectly. The beans, bacon, fries were really good. For a few extra dollars I had a side of carne guisada. The carne guisada is so tender and the gravy has so much flavor! With all this food I could only eat half of my plate. My son had the mini tacos. They were ridiculously tasty! With good size pieces of meat, covered in melted cheese and grilled onion. Both hot sauces were tasty but hot be careful. And finally the lemonade and the Arnold Palmer hit the spot! The service was very kind and patiently made recommendations for us 1st timers! We will definitely be back.“

“Okay….. first of all Edward was amazing. Friendly and knowledgeable about the food with recommendations. EVERYTHING was good! Watermelon Ranch Water to chips and salsa. Mole, sopa de tortilla and fajitas. We then ordered chocolate flan and sopapillas! Dear Lord, Thinking I may have to Uber back to the hotel!!!!!“

“Best chile relleno in San Antonio. Everything else is great too. I’ve never had a bad meal there.“

“I enjoy Plaza Mexican restaurant,my grandpa use take me here after school,now that I'm grown I love there Deluxe cheese enchiladas with Spanish rice and refried beans a crispy taco with ice tea . I recommend everybody to eat at Plaza Mexican restaurant“

“Absolute best chill place“
