Takao N.

We drove down to San Antonio for lunch here. Glad we did it. The food and service were excellent. Beans and rice are different from some others in a good way and we loved them. Very tasty. They reopened the place this May after the fire and it is clean and nice inside. Many tables to choose from and many food to choose from as well. Will definitely return when we're around the area again!!!

Mini tacos
Hanna D.

We found this place my accident, though we were going to a different Taqueria Datapoint. But we were already there and figured we'd try it. The mini tacos were delicious! Staff was really friendly as well. The place is a bit smaller than the other locations but still clean and homey.

The Datapoint franchise is pretty damn good. Any site I have visited, I have not been disappointed with their food. My go to dishes are the asada nachos and the asada enchiladas! I recommend those 2 dishes to everyone I bring. The mini tacos are pretty good as well. Today, this site gets 3 stars because of the service. I put in my order and it took 40 minutes. After about 20 minutes and 2 new customers coming in, I realized they were taking long. My waitress never came back. I had to flag down another waitress to ask what was going on. They said they would check. The 2 customers that came in after me received their meals and I still hadn't gotten an update. Finally another waitress comes and started making an excuse about my ticket. I was about to pay for my drink and leave when I was told it was coming out... I wasn't too happy with the service but the nachos were soooo good...

Barbacoa Plate
Evelyn C.

This taqueria never disappoints! We had several items from the menu. Taco de barbacoa, pozole, barbacoa plate, asada burrito, tacos a la yaka and everything was very well served and delicious! I have been to three datapoints in San Antonio and this is by far the best. Datapoint at De Zavala is overpriced and the portions are small served. Do not recommend location at De Zavala. So, if in San Antonio make the drive to this one exactly, so worth it! Mi lugar favorito para comida mexicana en San Antonio!

Flavors straight out of Mexico. Great service that is friendly. It's an environment you go to just eat in or pick-up at their drive through. You wont be disappointed. My SA go to Mexican restaurant.

Taqueria Datapoint is a long time favorite of mine and love that the Fred rd location is still open. The prices are still fair and their 3 taco special at 2.99 is a great deal when prices everywhere are rising. The food is always delicious and their flour tortillas have that homemade flavor I love. Their corn tortillas are handmade and are perfect for the gringas tacos (cheese meat avocado )

The mini tacos are so good! They may not look like much at first, but the meat is so flavorful and when paired with cilantro, onions, avocado, and salsa, it's absolutely delicious. I got 5 barbacoa tacos and that was more than enough for me. I also ordered the horchata which was nice and refreshing. Only complaint is that I was charged more than the price stated on the menu so their menus might be a bit outdated. Side note: they offer unlimited chips and salsa which is a good reason to dine in

Chips and salsa while you wait for your meal

Very friendly wait staff, graciously takes your order in Spanish! best chips and salsa! So fresh. They have menudo/pozole all weekend, all day

Mini-tacos al pastor
Barnabas H.

Spontaneous hankering for barbacoa. Datapoint didn't disappoint. Great menu selections. Co-dining compadres had excellent plates of country con huevos / "tacos luz" as well as mini-tacos al pastor. Wow, was everything great! Tomatillo salsa is tangy and a little limey (perfect) and the mini taco plate was served with a huge grilled/charred jalapeño that was muy appreciado por nosotros. Will return many times no doubt. Service was super friendly. A small mark off for ambience etc. otherwise 5

The caldo was loaded with beef  I added a little chili to give it more flavor with the broth  Itcomes with rice  The server was great
Frank G.

Arrived at 5 was seated promptly with chips and water ordered the caldo de res it was delicious I will return to try tacos

Barbacoa plate (5 mini tacos)
Angela Y.

This place is absolutely incredible. I took a day trip from Austin to San Antonio last weekend just to pick up three orders of the barbacoa and tripas taco plates. The meat is the best and prices are unbeatable. Each plate comes with grilled onions, raw onions, cilantro, a wedge of avocado, and a wedge of lime. Each taco comes with two warm, homemade corn tortillas and a generous scoop of meat. It's satisfying for even the hungriest person and it'll leave you wanting more! Most of the diners here are locals, so you know it's good. Overall, this is a hole in the wall that I am willing to drive 4 hours to eat. Skip the fancy, overpriced restaurants at Pearl District and come here when you next visit San Antonio. Pro Tip: Because of COVID, we got our orders to go and drove 5 minutes to the nearby Woodlawn Lake Park, which has public bathrooms and ample picnic seating. It's very pretty and spacious.

Queso.

We ordered the half chicken ($11), and I was honestly surprised by how juicy and moist it still was inside. The outside had a wonderful smoky charcoal flavor, and the marinade was flavorful all the way through. It also came with rice, corn tortillas, red and green salsa, grilled jalapeño, lime, and grilled onion, so it was a really filling meal for the price. We also tried the Bean Burger ($9.79), which was a fun combination of a beef patty, refried beans, cheese, chipotle sauce, and pico de gallo. I enjoyed it, although I personally would have loved a thicker layer of beans. The green salsa was SO good that I ended up buying an extra container for about $5 to take home. The restaurant itself is very casual and no-frills, with a big charcoal grill that really adds to the atmosphere--you can see and smell the chicken cooking. It feels much more like a local neighborhood spot than a polished tourist restaurant. Service was also very friendly and attentive. Even though we arrived late, we never felt rushed, and our server checked on us several times to make sure we had everything we needed. I would absolutely come back for the chicken and green salsa.

The green sauce is my favorite so far of all the pollo asadas places I have tried so far in San Antonio area. The beef fajitas were another favorite. If you're looking for the best pollo asadas in the area; definitely give them a try.

We were first planning to get their viral pumpkin torta but then decided on trying some of their other dishes instead. The Chicharrones came with guacamole and a delicious salsa that was quite spicy, but also incredibly tasty. The salsa complemented the chicharrones, especially once we placed them in tortillas to make our tacos. Four of us shared this appetizer and we were able to make two tacos each. The chicharrones also had a nice crispy skin on the outside but with pork meat available on the other end. I had the omelette de Rajas and it was perfectly seasoned with crispy corn chips in the middle, which I thought went perfectly with the tender delicious omelette and sauce that surrounded it. It came with a side of beans and potatoes which honestly I hardly ate because the Chicharrones were so filling. My partner got the pork mole, and I thought the mole sauce on it was really interesting because it seemed to feature toasted sesame seeds, which gave it a nice crunch and flavor. Please see my pictures to see the dishes we all tried. Our waitress was incredibly sweet, accommodating, and apologetic about the wait. After trying their food, I can honestly say that it was well worth the wait. My only suggestion would be to please be sure that no one plays their in phone or iPad loudly, and instead uses headphones so as to not disturb any of the patrons enjoying they're lovely meals. We will all definitely be back.
