    Caldo de pollo

    Tommy's never disappoints! The service is always great, and the food is fresh and tasty. The carne guisada with that delicious brown sauce is my favorite! Definitely a go-to spot! I had the Caldo de Pollo yesterday and it was delicious. It hit the spot

    Cheese Enchiladas Plate (3)

    Listen -- I don't ever want to hear any Tommy's slander. Yes, expect it to be busy, because this place earns it! Think sit-down Tex-Mex, southern sweet tea served in a large to-go cup, and plates so hot they're almost too hot to touch. Nothing fancy, just reliably good food that hits the spot. Some dishes stand out more than others, but you can never go wrong with their enchiladas -- always a safe and delicious choice. It's usually crowded, and yes, it can get loud, but the service is always kind and welcoming -- they make you feel right at home even in the chaos. My heart wants to give this 5 stars, but a few little inconsistencies keep me at 4. Still, it's a San Antonio classic I keep coming back to.

    Steak tacos
    Julie S.

    Business was recommended by a friend and I can't be more glad we went. It was delicious. The breakfast tacos were amazing and the tortillas were so delicious. Nice little casual place to try. Would definitely go back. Barbacoa was also really good. Service was fast and friendly.

    Piece of plastic found in taco

    I went and got some breakfast tacos after work. While eating my bacon egg and cheese, unfortunately I bit into a piece of plastic that was located inside of my taco. Fortunately I didn't consume this unknown piece of plastic. Hopefully the cooks will see this and be more careful when preparing food. Tacos were good nonetheless but I guess check the insides before you eat it or give it to a loved one. Unfortunate situation and ruined my appetite.

    Potato & egg
    Anna Marie S.

    Got 2 bacon & egg with extra cheese, 1 potato & egg, and 1 bean & cheese. You call in your order and wait in line until you get to the front door, not the best setup. The line blocks several parking spots, and exiting is a bit of a challenge. A worker asked for my name, went inside, then came back out with a bag with my order. She took my card and took my food back inside as well. She didn't bring the food or my card (and receipt) back until after she brought the food for the car in front of me. Kind of strange thing to do.

    Puffy Tacos
    J E.

    Stopped in here one weekday for lunch... this place was packed at lunch time and people kept shuffling through for carryout too! They have pretty friendly and helpful service, which is always nice. Their menu is standard and very reasonably priced. I tried puffy tacos for the first time and they were great! The tortilla that was fried was perfect, not too crunchy to where it would fall apart, just perfect! The meat in the beef was decent, but the meat in the chicken one was bland. Their nachos are unique, as they are individual tortilla chips with each one topped with meat, etc. Salsas was nice - spicy and fresh! Overall, I liked Tommy's and can see returning!

    Triple threat! (Our typical order) carne guisada with cheese, barbacoa, chorizo and papa
    Erica V.

    Always a hearty and welcoming experience. You definitely get the biggest bang for your buck on everything on the menu! Texas taco staples and homemade style tortillas are hands down the best quality and the reason I'll never be skinny! The staff treats everyone like a regular and they keep calm even in the busiest times! The food is always consistent and goodness for the tummy!

    Great food always . One of the best for simple Mexican food. Not sure why this isn't above a 4.0

    LOVE IT....a Yemeni coffee shop!!! There are two Qatar…read morelocations in San Antonio and this one is in the medical center in the same building as Jimmy John's near Bakery Lorraine. There's plenty of outdoor and indoor seating. Indoors is clean, spacious and airy with the redolence of great coffee. After absorbing the vibe, the barista, Tosh, greeted me with the kindest smile and reminder of my go-to drink, which surprised me as this was my first time patroning this location. Turns out, he remembered me from a coffee shop where he worked in the past! Side note: he's awesome! I ordered the Mofawar which I am OBSESSED! It's beyond smooth , with a rich, full-bodied flavor with the aromatic hint of crushed cardamom, which leaves a sweet treat at the bottom of the cup! I also tried the chai which also was tast and flavorful but nothing tops the Mofawar in my opinion. Service was pretty quick but keep in mind it may take longer for the specialty drinks due to the process which they are made. This is a great place to meet up, study (free WiFi) or just grab a specialty Yemeni drink and go!

Definitely worth checking out if you're looking for something a little different in San Antonio!

    Review Update: The best Summer Moon visit I've had…read more Coffee shop and specialty shop barista here! I've been to a couple of Summer Moon locations and have never really been a fan. My last experience with this one on the other hand was very pleasant. The baristas were super friendly and swift with our order, the cafe itself was clean despite a decent sized crowd, and our order was pretty satisfying. We ordered a Matcha Moon Latte with Lavender, another Matcha Moon Latte with Hazelnut, a Banana Chocolate Chip Muffin, and a Mixed Berry Poptart. Our Matcha Moons were both pretty good; while the lavender was rather subtle and melded well with the moon milk, the hazelnut was in fact a little heavy in flavor. The Poptart was very sweet and yummy, though I admittedly didn't eat all of the crust, and the Muffin was an equal blend of chocolate and banana, rich and moist, and was absolutely delicious overall. If I'm ever in the mood for Summer Moon I will most definitely go out of my way to visit this location. This trip definitely changed my view of Summer Moon in its favor!

    I already love this coffee shop , just another location. This one is often busy inside not leaving…read moremuch room to sit at certain times of the day. I've gotten my favorite drink here which is the full summer moon iced. And I've tried the matcha twice here but the first time was sweeter than the last time I had it recently and now I don't think I get it again cause it wasn't as good as the first time. But I'll continue to come to this location
