    And I wanna start of and stay that the place me look a lil run down but it's very clean. Very small hole in the wall. But the food there is great our meals came to us hot and delicious we didn't have to wait much time. My eggs came in the way I asked and the red salsa was very delicious spicy but with a lot of flavor. The beans are very average but the POTATOES for some reason came out super duper good! Bacon cooked perfectly how I like it,and the pancake was pretty good! Eggs weren't anything too different but the salsa verde I put on it had good flavor. The staff was friendly and welcoming I do recommend to anyone who enjoys some Mexican TexMex food to come here

    We found this on our "try a new taqueria" Sunday. I am so glad we did! I ordered a small menudo and 1 barbacoa taco on corn tortilla. The menudo was legit! It was clean, flavorful and on point. I added a little Serrano because I like it spicy. I should have gotten the large! My barbacoa taco was greasy and good. I would get both again. My spouse ordered menudo and two tacos on flour, pork chop and country in gravy. Yum! The sweet tea was freshly made. The restaurant was cozy and clean and the service was quick and friendly. I can't wait to try more of their food.

    This place was awesome, the prices are very reasonable and the tacos were full. I ordered 3 tacos bot got more than full on only 2 because they were so stuffed. The staff is friendly and attentive. My wife and I left there very happy and full. A++ for this place.

    Had a training in the area and happened upon this place. Ordered four tacos and they were all great. Fast and friendly service. Can't wait to come back!

    We are in town for a student competition and tried this place. Absolutely great food! We each had the Supreme Plate at lunch time, everything was fresh and delicious! Check out the before and after pictures of my plate!

    Eva's is right across the street from Confluence Park. Hubby and I went to Yoga at 10am on Sunday morning and were starving by the time it was over at 11am. We used Yelp to discover a place that was close to fill our bellies. We actually could have just walked over across the street just down the block if we had only know how close it was. We laughed as we pulled in. We were the only white people in the place so you know it's authentic Mex / Tex-Mex. The server barely understood English, that's ok too... menu is in English so it's all good. I hope more people discover this place since it's so close to the new park. I had the Mahacado con Huervo while hubby had Eva's Breakfast. I asked for no beans then shared my potatoes with hubby since his didn't come with it. Since I've been eating Keto, I'm passing on a lot of rice, beans, potatoes, and tortillas which are staples of the Texican diet. Machacado was good, my new 'go to' for breakfast... I know we'll be back either before or after yoga one Sunday morning.

    Beautiful restaurant. Service is very good. Had ceviche, tuna al pastor, and the corn cakes. The…read morescallop ceviche was a bit bland but I like the crunchiness of the green apple. I didn't need extra fat from avocado after the corn cakes since it doesn't add much flavor to the dish. The corn cakes are good and I will order again but not as good as some other cornbread. It came with 2 cakes. One was undercooked and one has a crispy crust. The undercooked one was my favorite. It is more moist with soft in the middle. Tuna Al Pastor has a kick but nothing special. Tres Leches was beautiful. 4/5. I like the fresh fruits to cut down the sweetness. The cake was a bit in the dense side. The icing on top was thick. I wish it was a fluffy whip cream to cut down from all the sweetness. Overall it's still a better tres leches than other places in the area.

    I uploaded the pictures of these restaurant last year but somehow didn't write a review. Wow …read more. So where do I begin. I still remember how tasteful everything was. It was probably our most favorite place that we ate while in San Antonio. The ambiance was great, beautifully decorated restaurant with great service. The cocktails were delicious so we had a few. The food was flavorful and unique. We had a wonderful dinner with my family at Carriqui.

    Mi Tierra Cafe & Bakery in operation since 1941 is a signature restaurant in San Antonio, TX…read more Historic Market Square. Having grown up in San Antonio, I have literally been to Mi Tierra's 100s of times. When you walk into the restaurant you experience immediate sensory overload (so much to see where it is hard to focus)...papel picado strung everywhere...in different colors...in different textures...metallic and paper...wow wow wow!!! In addition, there are artful configurations clustered with lots of color and spiritual references highlighting the Mexican American culture. Also, there are pinatas strung from the ceiling in metallic colors, which is a bit unusual for pinatas (usually made from paper). The restaurant also has stained glass windows and a mural. On this particular occasion, I was in the restaurant for bakery goods. Mi Tierra specializes in Mexican pastries. It looked like it would be a quick in and out, however, with so many sweets, every customer asked questions and deftly decided on their sweets de jour. Since I waited for a bit, I decided on three...peanut brittle (the hubs said he had not had any since childhood), pecan praline (for me) and a pecan pound cake (split between the hubs and myself). All were incredible delicious. Yep, we ate them all in one day. It is important to note that the prices in the bakery are extremely reasonable. Excellent sweets experience...

    Party of 2 on Monday 1730…read more OVERALL Great service, great food, great ambiance. SERVICE Seated right away. Mario was our kind and happy server. He provided great recommendations. He checked us often and refilled our waters often. CHIPS AND SALSA Complimentary. Tortilla chips are freshly made, oil it was cooked in tasted well, and the salsa was flavorful with roasted ingredients. FLOUR TORTILLA Very fresh, the right amount of salt and moisture, hot, toasted perfectly, just the right thickness, and teared apart very well. CHALUPA COMBO The chalupa was made with a typical crispy tortilla. Placed next to the enchilada so it made it a bit difficult to grab since one half of the chalupa got soggy. EL RANCHO SPECIAL Recommended by Mario. Selected beef tips. The beef was very tender and flavorful, the sauce was flavorful with spice and savory, the rice/beans were well seasoned and flavorful. The guacamole/lettice/cheese was placed into a taco shell. The guacamole was very fresh and had a great texture with varying chunks of avocado. ENCHILADA POBLANO The shredded chicken was juicy and well seasoned. The poblano mole sauce was mildly creamy, tasted of delicious poblanos, seasoned well, and added a refreshing contrast to the savory chicken filling. The pickled onions were a refreshing addition and had a great snap to them. AMBIANCE Feels like we were in a home. The place is decorated vibrantly. The decorations were also very bright and clean. The booth was comfortable and relaxing.

Now listen I enjoy a good mood, but this setting went a little past moody. It was DARK dark. They could definitely bump those lights up about two settings and still keep all the ambiance. lol Thankfully, the food and service needed no adjustments. Our waiter Stephen was really nice, attentive and quick throughout our visit. Thanks for taking good care of our table! We tried the paella and steak fajitas, and everything came out nice and hot. Both were enjoyable, but we also need to talk about those spicy mango and watermelon margaritas because the drinks definitely DELIVERED. Flavor was there, and so was the pour. Overall, we had a good experience. Nice River Walk location, hot and tasty food, great drinks and friendly service. Just turn those lights up enough for me to admire the meal before I eat it.
