I enjoy this restaurant very much. I have breakfast tacos there often. They also do a great job of enchiladas, both the beef and the cheese! read more

Good food, quick service, large portions. Everything is fresh and the avocados were beautiful. My only knock is that the chips could be fresher. read more

El Rodeo Mexican Grill - Their only salad, with carne asada. I did ask for the lime and sour cream. In the background is the burrito especial. - Mexican Near Me - Helotes, Texas

Papas rancheros was just okay, not too spicy even though it had plenty of chilies in it but still not that flavorful. Have improved in their flour tortillas so that is a plus in the right direction. Barbacoa taco was tasty but excessively greasy. But it took the 40 !!!! Minutes to serve 2 cars in front in me before they got my order and then had to wait another 10 at the window! Not going back through drive-thru ever again. read more

El Rodeo Mexican Grill - Rodeo Jalisco Omelette. - Mexican Near Me - Helotes, Texas

We love El Rodeo - especially for the breakfast tacos! You'll catch us there at least once a week - YUM!

Best breakfast tacos in San Antonio. The prices are absolutely amazing. Good service. The tacos are always fat and getting food is really quick. The only problem you'll have is majority of the construction workers eat here and the food may take a while during peak lunch hours. I live all the way in Olmos park and I make the drive to get tacos. read more

We had breakfast tacos, they were good, the flour tortillas seemed to be homemade. We received fast service. The waitress was friendly and always there with a coffee refill. Restaurant was bright colorful and very clean. We will definitely come back. read more

This place is a classic for my family. My dad is a regular who goes religiously, so of course that's our go to place right after church. I got a pancake plate, scrambled eggs and ham on the side. My boyfriend got a coffee and three taco plate. Our review goes like this. Me: pancakes are fluffy, sweet and filling! I created a taco with my eggs and ham with their fresh homemade tortillas. You can just tell those tortillas are made homemade! Pricing was good our meal together was $20 Him: loved the coffee, it didn't make him jittery like other coffees do and his tacos were decently big! Service was pretty decent the lady was sweet, and food came out fast considering the church crowd that was there this morning. I ate my food so fast I forgot pictures... but trust my word when I say this place is good. read more

The food is freshly prepared and delicious. We love all 3 salsas. Today I ordered breakfast and my husband ordered lunch. You just never go wrong with their delicious food and excellent service! read more

We have been coming or picking up from here for the last two years. We always ordered breakfast. Menudo very good and clean. Breakfast tacos good but today we went for lunch. Big mistake 1st we walk in and waitresses standing around hardly anyone in there. Told us to sit anywhere ( still no service) A gentleman comes in needed sitting for a large party and they all rush to get tables. Music was soo loud. Tables not cleaned. Again not busy yet. I'm looking at them annoyed so I finally get someone to get drink order but they all want the big party( bigger tips). I ordered cheese enchiladas, my husband ordered Mexican plate, granddaughter ordered taco. Well it was not good at all. Everything taste the same the rice and enchiladas were made with to much sazon. My husband eats everything and he couldn't finish it. My granddaughter didn't eat hers said tortillas was tough. Beans were good. Tortillas tasted old and reheated. I felt like they looked recycled. I would hope not. We didn't send back or complain I was told my a few waitress never to send back food because you never know what you might get back so just ask to remove it from bill and don't eat. We did neither. Service was disappointing. Our waitress never checked on us again. No refills. No do you need anything. Then it was after mass so big parties started getting there after we ordered and they would rush to help them. Again wanting tips. It's not real expensive compared to other Mexican restaurants in the area, but in saying that I did not like paying $35 for food we didn't eat. I hope they do better. Like I said we have never experienced this with them. read more

This place was a little hidden gem! We went on a Saturday night around 7:30 pm and there was literally no one there. I don't know why, it was so quick and delicious! I got the Alhambra's and my parents got the carne guisada plate. They were both delicious! I honestly couldn't finish mine, actually we both took leftovers home! We got the flan for dessert and let me just tell you, I am still dreaming/craving that flan a week later!! read more

The food was amazing ordered the carne asada it was delicious the service was very good and the place overall was really nice

This was the worst! They were overpriced and the food was cold and HORRIBLE! We couldn't wait to get out! The fact that two employees children were at a table, screaming and threw blocks. One block hit my foot. Never again will I visit here! I had two of my grandchildren and bill came to $39! How is that possible? They charged for everything at adult prices! Unbelievable! read more

First time it was alright. We ordered some tacos for the fam and a couple of burritos. Just so you know, the burrito is just a larger taco. I was thinking it would have rice and beans in addition to meat and lettuce. Nope. Beef fajita tacos were good. Will consider giving them a second chance another time. read more

I really enjoy this spot for breakfast. The ladies are super friendly and the coffee is fresh! My husband and I come on Monday mornings before he leaves out of town for work and the service and food is always spectacular. Great prices as well!! It's a gem for sure... read more

I heard El Rodeo Mexican Grill in Helotes was serving up good TexMex so I gave it a shot. The menu has a very large selection. I had plenty to choose from. It was lunch time and we were able to walk right in and be seated. Our order was taken right away and we had drinks on the table within minutes of arriving. The food came out fast as well and it was delicious. Large portions, seasoned well, and comes with all the fixings. Salsa and chips included at no charge. Both red and green salsa on the table. I was very satisfied with my meal. I had the Mexican plate that includes 2 cheese enchiladas, a beef taco, salad, beans and rice and flour tortillas. The enchilada sauce was flavorful with a hint of spicy just as I like it. Another big plus was the prices. My meal came in at 9.99. A great deal!!! The only reason I did not give a five was the cashier the checked me out was not very friendly. I think she was multitasking but I felt she was a bit rushing me and did not smile. Besides that great place the I will be going to again soon..... read more

they need to learn how to operate a drive thru window before opening a drive thru. sat for 15 minutes for one car to go through before I had to leave. food is good tho otherwise I would never be back read more

I wanted Mia's, but They were packed at 6pm as usual so we tried a new spot. Didn't expect much because I'm a creature of habit and this was new to me, but the food was good and served quickly! Sauces were on point and if ya want spicy they got you covered. Lots of choices so plenty to try next time. read more

Best beef enchiladas around, and we love the carne guisada at RODEO! Bertha is always nice and the drive through is super convenient! Don't forget your Torta, carne asada is my FAV! read more

El Rodeo Mexican Grill - Torta, soft bread with tasty carne asada! - Mexican Near Me - Helotes, Texas

When I started going to this restaurant about three years ago, I was so happy to find it. The food was great. The service is hit or miss. Sometimes you get someone who is really attentive and sometimes you get someone that doesn't appear you need service after you get your plate. I have tried to overlook it and think I to myself maybe they are having a bad day. The past couple of times I have been thru the drive thru the girl who works the window is rude. She yells if you can't hear what she said and acts like you are bothering her. Today was the last straw. Went thru the drive thru again thinking it will be different but it was NOT. She was extremely rude, took forever to get my food, gives me my food and slams the window on me!! I get home and open my container and the tacos are soggy! They were supposed to be crispy!! I hadn't eaten all day and was hoping to have a good meal, I was sadly mistaken. I don't know if she is the owner or not but she is quite often there. What she doesn't realize is service like that can kill your business and so does word of mouth. I don't believe in being vindictive but do believe in honesty and what I am serving you is the truth. I hope this will bring a wake up call to the restaurant as there are many choices. This was the last time I will choose Rodeo Mexican Restaurant in Helotes. read more

Food was ok Customer service could improve a lot Dinning area appearance/cleanliness needs improvement Restrooms weren't clean Overall rating was carried by the food rating. read more

I was here last Monday before going to mass and I ordered a quesadilla and the lady named Bertha apparently she is the manager..?.... charged me $2.00 .. I come back 1 week later and now it's $3.25.. YOUR EMPLOYEES DON'T KNOW WHAT TO CHARGE I TOLD THE LADY WHO IS HERE NOW YOU SURE JUST LAST WEEK IT WAS $2.00 .. your employee don't even know what to charge!! Should I call BBB.. read more

Love the authentic food! Always great service. Give them a try, you won't regret it!

Extremely rude, terrible customer service. When trying to order in the drive thru the lady was so rude and basically cut us off and said "what else"? We called the manager to complain and she could not have cared less. We definitely will not be going back. Avoid this place if you want to be treated with basic human decency. read more

Excellent service, went for some Caldo de Res on a cold day and was disappointed. Small piece of beef and all cabbage and carrots. Fortunately I also ordered a carne guisada with cheese which was delicious. I'm taking off a star because the table was dirty when I sat down and the staff was folding silverware behind me and I could enjoy my meal. Overall a great Mexican restaurant in Helotes!! read more

Telling customers that they aren't welcomed there because they only serve Mexicans??? Worst place you can go to if you expect good service and good food, wouldn't trust them, especially if you aren't Mexican. But if you are, why would anyone want to go there if they are going to treat the person (s) you're with like crap if they don't care for their race. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!!!! I can only give a one star rating for this to be published, they don't even deserve that.. read more

I've been here several times with my friend since it's close by the house and they never cease to be amazing! There are several Mexican restaurants nearby with decent tacos but they tend to mess orders up- so far El Rodeo never does they have the best salsas , their barbacoa is BOMB, their tacos are always OVER stuffed they're not skimpy at all- more bang for your buck I cant recommend this place enough. They're open for pick up and drive thru during this crazy quarantine. Don't forget your local small businesses !!! read more

The food was really. Our party had carne guisado plate, #10 Texas? plate and Alahambras tacos. Everyone was pleased. The only thing I wasn't crazy about was the refried beans. I probably would ask to see if they'll substitute charro beans. They looked really good. We tried the flan de quest for dessert and it was yummy. read more

Been here a few times. The Chile relleno is on point and so are the mini tacos. Whatever the Asada they use for the tacos is amazing. The burritos are also very tasty! read more

The food is good for authentic Mexican in the Helotes area, however the service was terrible. I asked for coffee and one waiter said they were out, then a second one came by with a pot....weird. Also had like 3 different people come to our table and serve us. read more

Very rude and unfriendly. Bits of dried meat of some kind in my eggs on one visit. Refried beans in my eggs another time. Over charged me this time. This place is not good at all. I'm done! read more

I will be going back and will be telling family and friends about this place. The service was great AND everyone LOVED what they ordered. The salsa could be spicer but we are near helotes so I think they are trying to accommodate the clientele. They even had nopales! -that's how you know it's authentic my family ate every bit of food on their plate and to be honest we weren't even that hungry. Oh and the aguas frescas are made fresh - not from packets, not watered down, and not too sweet. read more

Went and had breakfast tacos. They were good. Will be coming back. As far as unfriendly or racist staff did not see any of that. Wait staff was on point and rest of staff was friendly. I wasn't expecting a 5 star restaurant but if it wasn't clean I would not have eaten anything. read more

Me and my husband went here for the first time yesterday. We will be going back. The service and food was great. He had the mini tacos with asada. I had the San Antonio plate which came with 2 cheese enchiladas, puffy taco, rice and beans. I was not a fan of the corn tortillas, I feel they should have been on the grill a little longer, they were kinda doughy. I have had better puffy tacos but these were ok. We had water and the total was $19.22 with tip. read more

The food is good and the service is fine too. The drive-thru, however, is the slowest in NW San Antonio! They need some major improvements in managing this part of their business. It's shocking how much business they lose by cars driving off in frustration! Either figure it out or hire a consultant. read more

The manager told me to never go back because they "only serve Mexicans". Needless to say, I will never return.

This was my first time visiting this new restaurant in Helotes. First impressions are always a sign of what might be. I was waited on right away and the waitress was very friendly. She had a menu ready and took my drink order. The coffee was of good flavor and hot. When she brought the coffee she also had 2 sauces as well as napkins and silverware. To me this is a real plus. So many places are slow to bring the utensils. She took my order and shortly thereafter my order was served, nice & hot. Coffee was refilled and she made sure I was happy with my order. Why only 4 stars? Like I said this was my first time here but I'm sure it won't be my last. So if this type of service continues I will be updating to 5 *****. read more

El Rodeo Mexican Grill - Street tacos - Mexican Near Me - Helotes, Texas

Does the term "buyer be aware ".mean anything to you. It should when it comes to this place. Thats what i said "this place " because at a restaurant you're supposed to feel welcomed, and attended to, not to guess if your going to be given a menu let alone be served. I mean if your a group of men that have uniforms on and speak the language maybe then you might have a chance !! Service is dismal food is TexMex mediocre and wait times are slow to very slow. I guess thats because of the big table of men the waitress prefer to attend. I wont be spending my money here again. I gave this place several chances. But enough is enough. Hope you have a better outcome then i did, but don't say I didn't warn you!!! read more

Service was horrible drive thru lady was so disrespectful and some of the other ladies inside too never will recommend that place to no one.
