    Puffy Taco
    Bianca L.

    Went on Labor Day around 1105 am, empty, they just opened. But it seemed like they were busy with online orders. We were easily attended to, food was quick. I enjoyed the Salmon taco, it was refreshing and no fishy taste! The puffy taco of course nothing compares to the ones locally made here in SA, but the chicken was marinated well. The elote and queso dips were also great! Will order them again. My husband said the spicy chicken tikka was okay, he like the queso birria better. Overall, we enjoyed eating here. Walking distance to TopGolf

    We just moved back to San Antonio and made a point to stop by Velvet Taco for an early dinner a few days after arriving. It was so good, that we just went in again this weekend for lunch! Getting into the parking was still surprisingly smooth despite all the highway overpass construction around the 1604/ I-10 (RIM). A few things have changed in the last couple years but Velvet Taco still has that modern, funky vibe I remembered. We kicked things off with the blue corn chips and Elote Guac; (Vegan & GF) ... Classic guac, roasted corn, queso listo, Valentina, citrus lime crema, queso fresco, lime... oh man! That's is my new favorite! My wife went with the Rotisserie Chicken Bowl again which comes loaded with all kinds of good stuff: queso blanco, roasted corn pico, black beans, avocado crema, and basmati rice with butter and cilantro. She loved it! Really flavorful and filling. I ordered the same two tacos: * The Grilled Steak with portobello mushrooms and crispy red onions on a corn tortilla * And the Mexi-Cali Shrimp Taco: blackened shrimp, napa slaw, sriracha aioli, avocado, roasted corn pico, micro cilantro, flour tortilla, which totally lived up to the "fan favorite" hype Both tacos were put together really well. These are some of the best Tacos I've had in SA town. She also tried their "Kick Ass Margarita", and it lived up to the name--smooth and not overly sweet. I had a 16oz can of Modelo Premier. Velvet Taco hits the mark. Smart combinations & thoughtful blend of textures and flavors, cool atmosphere, and a creative fusion-spin on their tacos that makes you want to try them! Great job... looks like Velvet Taco will be a regular spot for us!

    I don't have much to say about the ambiance because I got it to go but the food? The service? Chef's kiss. I'm not even a super fan of tacos. These are really good. I tried a couple of the seafood tacos on a flour tortilla. My friend had the chicken bowl and it was really good. We both love a red velvet cake (I consider myself a connoisseur) so we had to try it. It was different. Not bad, but not the way we do it in Georgia. Best believe, it didn't go to waste. I'm not sure what took me so long to eat here. Oh, yeah, I'm not a super fan of tacos lol. I think may have changed my mind.

    First time there. And I did not get the taco, they looked small for the price and it was only for one. I wanted something more filling for my bucks. I got a beef bowl, it was pretty good. kinda like a chipotle bowl. I also got the red velvet cake, it was just staring at me as I was trying to check out. I'm glad I did, it was delicious. The place was clean, open seating and was plenty on A mid day lunch. The service was great, she was kind and helpful with it being our first time, she explained everything. I would return.

    Fried Paneer Taco and Nashville Hot Honey Tofu Taco
    Jasmyne G.

    After hearing about Velvet Taco we decided to give it a try. It was during lunch time so it was a bit busy. There was a lot of variety on the menu which we loved and after being undecided for 15mins we ordered the Fried Paneer Taco, the Nashville Hot Tofu Taco, the Grilled Salmon Taco, the Beer Battered Cauliflower Taco and Chips & Queso. I will say, for the bill to have been $28 everything was just okay, not worth the price point. The food... The Fried Paneer was not good( in my opinion) there was barely a hard fry on it, it wasnt enough batter to be fried but again it was soft almost mushy and lacked flavor. Reading the description I was super excited about it but it missed the mark.. completely. However, The Nashville Hot Tofu was very good, it has the heat and it was full and flavorful. The Grilled Salmon was good! A lime wedge on the side would be a plus(my preference) but very tasty. It was a nice size portion of salmon for the tortilla it came in but this was good. Now, the Beer Battered Cauliflower... The batter was hardly there, very soft almost mushy and paired with mushy avocados it was a NO for me, a bit disappointing. Lastly, the Queso and Chips were good your basic chips and cheese. Our cashier(Tianna) I think her name was, she was a bit discombobulated and not very knowledgeable of the menu so she wasn't a help when it came down to getting our questions answered. Also, when our order was called there were other orders to be picked up by customers so I had to guess which items belong to me and when I asked her which items were mine she was clueless. The dining area was very dirty but where we sat was the only area that was clean so that was a bit cringy but nonetheless, everything was just interesting to say the least. But definitely give velvet taco a try for yourself and I hope you have a better experience then we did.

    It had been so long since I went to Velvet Taco. The food was really good and I really enjoyed the combo option they have of two tacos, a side and a drink. The meal was super filling and very affordable. I loved the elote and the buffalo chicken taco was delicious! Staff was super nice too! They ran out of queso and only had curry queso and they were able to give my husband a sample to try before ordering.

    Never found a taco restaurant with so many different selections of odd tacos. The flavors were fantastic!! Service was ok. Not much welcoming when we arrived, very stoic girl at counter. But food came out pretty quickly. Atmosphere was nice with fun signs scattered throughout the restaurant.

    This is my SAY What combo. I went for the chimichurri steak tacos because that has enough spices to clear my sinuses! The elote was awesome too. Definitely coming back.

    Velvet Taco is a casual, quick service restaurant offering a variety of tacos containing chicken, pork, fish, vegetarian and beef. My favorites so far are the #17 Mexi-Cali shrimp taco, the #18 chicken waffle taco and the roasted corn in a cup (it's pretty addictive)! My kids love the seasoned chicken strips and tater tots (both are fantastic). My only issue is when I ordered additional food in the app from my table, my name was never called when my order was ready so it sat there, getting cold. Unfortunately, the app didn't notify me it was ready either so the temperature of the food was disappointing. Outside of ordering through the app, the food options are great. Update: I have figured out how to identify "tableside delivery" in the app on the final screen before ordering, so I've started using this setting when placing orders in the app, but it only results in my food coming to the table 50% of the time. When the food doesn't come to the table, my name is called on the intercom but it's a win because I'm alerted the food is ready.

    While we were visiting San Antonio, we looked up this location and decided to give it a try. As soon as we walked in, the establishment was clean and inviting with great music at the right level of noise. We were a group of six, wanted to try every taco, ordered nacho Trio, Birria nachos, a couple orders of tots, and the margarita with the shot! The manager or owner was very kind, super friendly, and made some great recommendations.

    We went to velvet taco since they had vegan/vegetarian options. We got 2 different tacos, Nashville hot and regular cauliflower tacos. Nashville had too much sauce to appreciate the taco. Cauliflower tacos were delicious and very fulfilling. Staff was great in explaining the menu.

    This place in located on 1604 access road right before you hit I-10. The place looks quaint and when you walk in notice the decor. You head down the aisle and see the menu on the wall. In case you forget what you wanted they also have a menu at the counter. This place does fill up fast and indoor seating is a bit limited. We ordered the Nashville hot tofu and Beer battered cauliflower taco. We also ordered the crispy tots with the local egg minus the bacon. Everything came out pretty quick and looked delicious. The first bite I took I was instantly impressed. I enjoyed every bite. The tots were very crispy. I was a little overwhelmed by the amount of pepper on the tots. The egg did dim that taste down a bit. Overall, I would give it 5 stars for presentation and taste. The staff are super nice and patient. The customers in front of us couldn't decide (who could blame them with the choices) and they helped them with their order. Definitely worth the trip if you're in the area. I can't wait to come back!

As a fellow citizen of H-town, we have a vibrant taco scene and I would put this place up there with some of my favorite spots I frequented in HOU. Each time I've been here, I've ordered between 8-9 tacos as they are each $2.50. I've gotten a combination of pastor, barbacoa, lengua, bistec, and cabeza. I can't really select a favorite cause they're all so delicious with the meats tender and juicy with a heaping sprinkle of onions and cilantro. Make sure you squeeze the lime on it and mix it with the radish/cucumber garnish they'll throw in there. And don't forget to throw on that green/red salsa they provide. Either eat there or get it to go (which is what I did). Fortunately the tacos travel well as they were still hot when I posted up at my hotel to grub. Don't be discouraged of the long line if you see one as it moves quick. You walk up and place your order, then pay afterwards. It's somewhat of an honor system but there is security present when I went there so that eased my concerns. For drinks, it's either soft drinks, water, or mineral water. No alcohol is served here so if you want margaritas/micheladas/beer, you'll have to go elsewhere for that. No doubt I'm returning next time I'm in SA. Viva Taquitos West SIDE!

The good, the bad and the ugly. If we run across a serious issue, I will always go directly to management and not post it. I truly believe you always must give management an opportunity to correct a serious issue. If not corrected and or just ignored, then I feel it is correct to inform the public - professionally. No establishment is perfect. I will bring to you smaller hiccups we may have come across. I will rarely comment on the taste of food - being bad, as that is a very personal thing. My wife and I disagree on taste of food and wine, no one is wrong or right. Now if the food is on fire, burned, under/overcooked to our requests, that would be mentioned. My favorite thing about our visit to SANCHOS was their hospitality. Sometimes things do not turn out as you think (the customers end). We had a scheduled event planned at SANCHOS, and some of the RSVPs didn't show up. Nothing changed at all from our server, he was simply amazing. Rearranged the tables to make it more suitable for us. And we received more one-on-one attention and interaction with him - he was amazing. Then the food and drinks. To say a solid happy hour menu for both drinks and food is an understatement. It is worth the Uber if you live downtown SATX! Had some amazing apps and drinks! The price point you can't beat! Live music every Thursday, SANCHOS has a real neighborhood feel to it, but has a downtown view. We will set up another Thirsty Thursdays event in the spring. PS on the happy hour bites - try the croquetas de Camaron - "take a cold shower good"! See you soon, just Cindi and I!

It…read morewas a quiet Sunday afternoon with not a lot of patrons so service was super fast and great. The food is delicious and really tastes homemade. We couldn't stop eating chips haha. I liked my husband's tacos more than my bowl, but it was a ton of food and now I have lunch for tomorrow woo! Both the red and green salsa are very nice and spicy. Everything tastes really fresh and I'm happy to come here when the weather isn't too bad and sit on the upstairs deck. I wish the view was better than the parking lot, but that's not Sancho's fault. My god, the bathrooms though. Please do something about the bathrooms. They could use some serious freshening up.

The atmosphere and lighting create a very intimate vibe, and the darker setting really helps it stand out from other restaurants in Laredo. Just a heads up -- they do have a dress code, which honestly adds to the overall experience. The food was excellent. I ordered the chicken mushroom plate, and all the flavors were bold and well balanced. For drinks, I highly recommend the Jardin Eden. The fusion of lavender, blueberry, fruity liqueurs, and aromatic herbs made it one of the best cocktails I've had in a while. My only complaint was the service. We had a party of 10+ people with only one server assigned to us. He was very kind and professional, but it was difficult to find him throughout the night, especially when we were trying to pay our checks. The restaurant also wasn't very busy at the time, so service felt slower than expected. Overall, this is still a great spot for a special night out, and I would definitely come back.

Friendly service and delicious, we work nearby and will be ordering again!!
