Oh my, the best hole in the wall Mexican I've ever had! Recommended by a barber of all things! Great service, food & top top food....Highly recommended!

The salsa was delicious. But the fried pork was basically flavorless. I don’t think there’s any seasoning on that. It was fried well, and their beans and rice are delicious. But the tortillas were so so and like I said, the pork was bland.

The food and the service were outstanding. We had the birria and the roasted pork and the food was absolutely delicious. They had some of the best refried beans i have ever had. Service was fast, friendly and attentive. A must come back to.

This is probably the most notable and authentic of Mexican Food Restaurants in San Antonio. The owners are a brother and sister who have been in business for over a decade. You can eat the same food at any other Tex-Mex in the city. GUAJILLO'S is one of my top five places to eat in San Antonio, because it is so different from every other cookie-cutter mom and pop in the (210).

This place is absolutely dirty and disgusting! Flies everywhere. Then on top of it, they try to overcharge me seven dollars for some random soup that I’ve never seen before. Would never return

Fast prompt and attentive service. The salsa was not the standard tomato based run of the mill salsa. It had heat and real flavor.
The conchinita pibil was fantastic! My daughter got the gringa and it was loaded with chicken and cheese.
Ask for a bowl of the pickled onions, they are spicy and tart and a wonderful accompaniment to the meal

Service was great.

Food was so-so. Not tasty

I got a hive reaction probably because lard was used in some part of the meal. I think health laws require a notice

We love to find spot where locals frequent. We took a recommendation from our server and it was 100% the right choice.

Do not call and place a to go order. They will try to take advantage of you. To-go order came out more expensive than expected and employee refused to give an itemized receipt. When questioned about it, employee said he “accidentally” added a beer to the to-go order. Instead of removing the charge, he gave $6 as “cash back” which I doubt covered the charge of the beer added on. Refused to give a customer copy of receipt. When called back after experience to ask to speak with a manager, he refused to provide one saying that there was none working. He then found someone else to field the call, when asked if she was a manager she said there was not one working but she was “in charge of everyone.” Do not order from this place, they will try to skim money off of you and hide it.

I got a to-go order of pozole, one red and one green for $29. When I got home and picked up the paper bag they were packaged in, the bottom of the bag was wet and tore open, spilling $29 worth of soup on my garage floor. The plastic containers were flimsy and the lids didn’t fit securely. 😩. Beware if you get a to-go order.

We had the bistec chile pasilla and the chicken mole verde. Both were excellent with wonderful depth of flavors. For dessert we had the best flan we've ever had. Service was fast and attentive. Do yourself a favor and dine here!

Best Mexican food I've found yet in San Antonio. Whether you're getting enchiladas, flautas, fideo or more, you can tell they put care into the preparation. Just don't have the sopa de camaron - breathing near it will burn off your nose hairs! Also, I learned that none of their breakfast dishes contain eggs.

I went here today with a couple of coworkers for my exit lunch. I'm glad that I did. I had their milanesa a la mexicana and it was delicious. For someone who likes spicy food, the sauce will definitely make your eyes and nose run in a good way.
