    New location as of November 2024

    They have a new location as November 2024. 7819 Pipers Creek St Great homemade taco with lots of love worth the wait and effort

    Taco de pastor
    Elmer De Jesus C.

    Huge home made corn tortilla! The pastor is cooked to its perfection !! 4 different sauces!! The green is an explosion of flavor and the chile tatemado as well !! It's a brother and sister working and making the handmade tortillas ! Will definitely come back !!

    Updated Menu:

    Family owned and authentic Mexican food. Service is friendly and welcoming as well fast. Theyre efficient with their menu but it's full of so many flavors. I definitely recommend trying the Generala Plate that comes with 4 of their guisos (stews) or 3 stews and refried beans. It's a great way to see all the flavor packed meats that they have and it comes with 3 BIG tortillas so you can still have that taco option. If you follow them on facebook and instagram they announce when they do special Add-ons for limited times like pork and chicken homemade tamales or even their delicious flan/chocoflan. these are all announced and you can come in to pick up.

    Wow!! First time to this hole in the wall food truck. Friendly relaxing atmosphere, which is nicely covered from the elements. The food is amazing!!! Hands down, from the home-made corn tortillas to the inside fillings, which they recommended asada. By the way, the tacos are a very good size. Try the green salsa!! Thx

    Let me tell you something...you need to visit La Generala! They have delicious tacos and quesadillas! My favorite is the Chicharron in salsa verde and the carne guisada! I love that the tortillas are hand made, you can taste the passion in their food. They are so kind as well! At the moment they accept cash and cash app.

    Let's check this out came here since I seen it on Elder Eats I'll give you the real review. It is made to order and tortillas are being freshly made as I wait for my order. It's kinda hidden so make sure you don't pass it up when you are driving by I had to make a couple u turns I will be back to update once I dig in. So stay tuned I'm back... everything was very flavorful the best tortilla I've had in San Antonio and no I'm not talking about flour. I'm from California and not a big fan of the Tex Mex flavor , I like authentic MEXICAN food and this is probably the closest thing to a California Mexican joint. Finally Elder eats gets one right, the asada and the pastor queso taco were so good , I also ordered the Guiso rojo and the chicharon although I don't care for the last 2 they still had good flavor. My favorite salsa was the avocado and the green one very unique flavor, the Pizza size quesadilla is more the enough for 2 believe me I was about to order 2. my new favorite Mexican food place in San Antonio of the egg aNd green chili taco is amazing ...unlike Elder that has to say every place is visits is soooo good, i paid for my food this is the REAL review.

Like pulling up to your primo's…read morecarne asada, the loud one, the one where somehow the music is always right, the grill is always going, and for a few hours nothing else matters. That's exactly the energy at Los Weyes de la Asada. From the second you walk up, it feels alive. Not in a forced way, more like you've been there before, even if it's your first time. The kind of place where your stress, your diet, even your cruda takes a backseat. Now the food. No overthinking needed here. Everything coming out of that truck is a straight up pow pow of flavor. The carne is cooked just right, juicy with that perfect char, and the corn tortillas are legit, soft but with enough structure to hold everything together. I ordered the Mamón and the Chingón, and honestly, both lived up to the names. No misses. And the agua fresca de fresa? That sealed it. They serve it in a little bolsita, which somehow makes it hit even better. Simple, nostalgic, and just cool. It's all tucked inside El Camino, which adds to the whole vibe, string lights, people hanging out, that easygoing outdoor feel where you lose track of time a little.

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!

We were right on the river walk, but walked through the entire restaurant on our way to be seated and every bit of it is as lovely as where we ended up sitting. The Riverwalk, however, is a people watching place and so there really isn't any place in this particular restaurant which is not gonna be pleasant. Secondly, the service is exceptional. This is a very busy place. However, the waiter was simply incredible. Very attentive, very informative quite humorous. He was frankly part of the river walk entertainment. Extremely accommodating and instructive as well. You can't hope for much more from a server in Restaurant than this activity. The food is really quite good. How are the drinks. Extremely dependable and the portions are generous and equally wonderful. There are many places to dine in San Antonio. However, this is an experience not to be missed and I mean that quite sincerely. Kudos for a very, very well run well situated and well managed enjoyable place to dine on the river walk in San Antonio.

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.
