Great take-out for tamales and barbacoa. It's cash-only to keep their expenses down.

Probably most underrated for tamales. For my money, the best. I have tried several but you can't be these. No flash, just great tamales. Meaty, flavorful and big.

If you enjoy mouth watering, tender, flavorful barbacoa. Than this is a must try on your list of delicious traditional Mexican food dishes. They serve barbacoa and tamales. The barbacoa comes in 2 different varieties one is regular which is the more chunky aspect of barbacoa has more fat which adds that juicy flavor with each bite. And than they have all meat that would be your more recognizable chopped barbacoa still juicy not all dried out or anything. I would suggest getting a pound of each and decide for yourself I’m very confident in saying you can’t go wrong with either one. I would go even further to say let your taste buds be your guide. They also have tamales pork,chicken, beans & jalapeños, and cheese. And their hefty portions not one of those places where you think to yourself “where’s the meat at?” No not here. My favorite tamales so far have been the chicken with verde sauce, the beans and jalapeño and next I’m going to try the cheese. All in all this is a great place to eat and at least deserves a try. It is Cash Only so stop at your local ATM beforehand.
Parking: So parking is free on the street and in front of the building but since they’re next to a beauty salon it’s hard and parking on the side street has been the best option.
Kid-friendliness: Yes and no. Yes they’re very warm in welcoming you in but theirs no seating typical people would just order food to go.

I finally found a barbacoa that isn't dripping fat nor messy. They also have good menudo.

I've been coming here for years and finally decided to post a review. Hands down best barbacoa, tamales, menudo, salsas and tortillas. ALWAYS fresh delicious food and always kind and courteous service! I will never ever stop coming here for my cravings. I've unfortunately had many other places that serve the same, but there will never be a comparison. Morenita, Keep up the great job, never change ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hands down the best menudo and barbacoa I’ve had in San Antonio. The tamales are also amazing and stuffed with meat. This place is to go and cash only and is a bit of a whole in the wall, but well worth the drive. The staff is friendly and very attentive. Do yourself a favor and check this place out. Definitely one of the hidden gem for those those love good food!

Barbacoa and flour tortillas were delicious! Prices have gone up and it is *cash only*. Definitely worth the drive and price.

It’s been a while since I’ve been to this, Molino, and to my great relief, it’s only gotten better. It seems that getting better would’ve been an impossibility but let me tell you it’s fantastic. Don’t give me started on the tamales, one of her tamales compared to someone else’s is like comparing a roasted chicken-to a roasted turkey!
