    Potato&&Chorizo Taco
    Alexis H.

    First time trying this place and I was not disappointed at all! I ordered through Uber Eats. They did accidentally give me a taco I did not order, but it did not go to waste lol. All the tacos were fantastic. I really enjoyed the speciality Chilaquiles taco, I would get it again!! Next was the bean and cheese, can never go wrong with that. The chorizo and egg was good, not great but I would still eat again.

    Pozole

    Nestled in a corner of a strip mall in Stone Oak, this taqueria has a quaint feel to it. With plenty of sitting room, the music engulfs the listening ear. When here, you can count on a fresh salsa bar. The drink station offers a variety of fresh juices, along with the standard Coca-Cola drink machine. Today, my choice is Pozole. It was delivered fresh by the courteous staff. The pozole was accompanied by 2 crisp tortillas and fresh iceberg lettuce. It was just what I was looking for today.

    Wow! In a BAD way. Had chorizo and egg with frijoles tacos . They where unacceptable. This did not taste authentic at all. The worst part is that I paid ten dollars for it. Don't believe the reviews. Staff was polite , food is not good.

    AMAZING TACOS! Such a cute little drive through spot for tacos! We ate in the small dining area inside! Service was super quick! Will definitely be coming back!

    There are actually a few El Taco locations, but they do not seem to be affiliated. This one is the best location, according to my daughter. It's in Stone Oak Village, a strip mall. This is my daughter's favorite place in San Antonio for street tacos. On Mondays, that's the special of the day. She gets the el pastor and chicken. I tried both and liked the chicken the best. The chicken is marinated in lime juice and is unique and flavorful. The pork was a bit too fatty for my liking... maybe I just got a bad one. Since my daughter makes fabulous tacos herself, I opted for something light and different. I ordered the chicken fajita salad. The menu indicated that it comes with chips and pico, but it didn't. Instead, it was topped with tomatoes. And there was beans (that weren't mentioned on the menu) at the bottom. Also, I would've thought that chicken "fajita" would include onions, but it didn't. With maybe a teaspoon of guacamole, the salad was bland and fell flat, especially for the price. I will say that the taco bowl that it came in was fantastic. The scannable menu leads you here: https://www.eltacostoneoak.com/#about-us

    Just when I think SA has reached maximum-taco-shop capacity, more crop up! With all the five star reviews for breakfast, I had to give it a try. Menu is a mix of classic and modernized tacos, along with plates for breakfast and lunch. My go-to bfast taco is potato, egg, and cheese, with bacon- go big or go home, right? This spot has a few specialty tacos with a bunch of different stuff thrown in. The "Dumpster" has a little bit of everything (potato, egg, bean, bacon, cheese, carne guisada)- fun mix of flavors, but I felt their carne guisada was lacking the savory punch of spices I love. The "L Taco special" (potato, beef fajita, cheese, avocado)- solid. My mom digs this taco, the creaminess of the avocado keeps it from being dry. The Norteno is a classic done well (beans, jack cheese, fajita, and guac), better with chicken than beef, or it gets too heavy to me. A better version than Las Palapas! Service is friendly and they have a loyalty program/stamp card. In addition to having a ton of different tacos, you also have your choice of THREE types of tortillas. This is almost choice overload (I dig the Harina Tex-Mex), just let me eat them already!

    Breakfast tacos were really small and they had hardly any egg in the taco. But their salsa bar was really good.

    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.

That really makes a difference for a family outing! And oh my goodness, the appetizers are simply fantastic. We couldn't get enough! I also have to give a special shout-out to the Carrajillo I ordered. It was such a delightful surprise - perfectly balanced, not overly sweet, with a lovely citrusy kick that made it incredibly refreshing. Definitely a new favorite drink! We're already looking forward to our next visit to explore more of amazing menu. Just a little heads-up for anyone else, we realized on our way out that there's an extra parking lot right across the street if the main one fills up. Super handy to know!

    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.
