The atmosphere inside the restaurant was quiet, the tables were spread out so as not too tight and the food was delicious. There is seating inside cozy settings with saltillo tiles as if you were in a garden. There is also a full stocked bar inside and an area for a private event if desired. I ordered the Carne Guisada Platter and my daughter ordered Carlos' Special, their signature dish. The meals were exceptional. Unfortunately one of the owners daughter passed away some years ago and in her remembrance, a Jardin was named for her, "Jessica's Jardin" . The Jardin is in back of the restaurant and it is very nice. There is a Margarita bar, a pretty green flower garden, a water pool, and a Jungle Jim for children to play on. There are tables and chairs to sit also stand-up electric heaters just in case there is an outside event in the cool weather and the Jardin is accessible by ramp. RECOMMENDATION: Overall, I would return to El Chaparral Mexican Restaurant in Helotes for another exceptional meal and a short trip for some shopping in Old Town Helotes.

But then--there's the one. The legend wrapped in tortilla and steam. The Beto Taco, add bacon-- a humble name for such a sacred thing. The tortilla? Warm as a morning blessing. The filling? Rich with comfort and craft. Eggs that melt like golden promises, Bacon that crackles like holy applause, Each bite a chorus of you chose wisely. This is not just breakfast. This is ritual. This is loyalty. This is knowing exactly where to go when the soul says, feed me something real. Mary's Tacos doesn't just serve food-- They serve consistency. They serve memory. They serve that first perfect bite you spend the rest of your life chasing. Long live Mary's. Long live the Beto Taco (add bacon, always). Some places feed your stomach. This one feeds your spirit.

You can't find it on Yelp under the new name, which is frustrating as this place is NOTHING like it was. Even your credit card statement will still say House of Flavor. The menu is now a mariscos style seafood menu. My son and I were thrilled when we saw the change and the first time we went, we both loved it. He had a whole fish of some kind, and I had a cocktail of mixed seafood like shrimp, crab, and octopus. It was fresh, spicy, and flavorful. Today, we went back. This time my son got the seafood cocktail that I had the first time. Sorry I don't know the names, but the only menu I could find on line was a photo that was way too small to read. Anyway, he liked it and said it was the same as when I had it. I made a bad bad bad choice. I just wasn't feeling seafood to I ordered the enchiladas asadas. I mean come on... This is a MEXICAN restaurant in SAN ANTONIO. Never in my wildest dreams did I expect to be served the absolute WORST Mexican plate I have ever had. Those of you who read my reviews know that I rate a Mexican restaurant on their tortillas, rice, and beans. If those are good, the rest of the plate is usually okay at least. Let me break this meal down for you. Refried Beans- I have honestly had better out of a can. Rice- This was brought to me about 15 minutes after the rest of the food. It was plain white rice that was cooked to a mushy consistency. I tasted it to see what it was like with no plan of eating it. I had already given up on eating at all. But back to the tortillas- There were none served. Now let me do my best to describe the enchiladas. They were small corn tortillas with about a spoon full of meat inside and folded like tacos. There was a thick red sauce all over them. It did not taste like any kind of enchilada sauce I have ever had. It was sweet and left a foul aftertaste in my mouth. There was a white cheese on top that I can only describe as slimy. Yes... I said slimy. The enchiladas were flooded with that awful sauce and had turned to mush. Our server was very nice and helpful. The iced tea was very good. The venue was nice and clean. Will I be back? Yes, at least one more time once I have had sufficient time to get today's horrible food out of my head. But, you can bet your sweet behind that I won't go near anything but the seafood on the menu.
