Had heard their tamales were better than Delia's (being from the valley I didn't want to believe it) I tried the menudo and it was delicious soft meat great portion 4.5 out of 5! Barbacoa taco was perfect not overly greasy and salsa's didn't over power it grab that big red 4.5 out of 5! The tamales tasted home made and it edges out Delia's- the pork was amazing 5 out of 5! Chicken was good 4.3 out of 5!

Bandera Rd. location is awful. No bean and cheese, no potatoe and egg. No bacon and egg. No bacon…read more Just close this place down. Or put on your wall outside, we sell ONLY TAMALES. Why even have the taco area open? You had the steel bins covered in plastic hair bonnets, so when the food is done, you just pull the plastic bonnets off. Is this health dept. code? The whole idea is to have the food that is being served under heat lamps, to be in contact with heat, from burners on bottom, the steam rising. Look at Lubys, do you see them putting plastic bonnets on the steel food bins? What the hell? And No food, and what was left, was old, cold, and dry. Because per Clown Make Up, and Upper Spade Lip Goth Boy/Girl with long hair under cap, when the food is finished, that is it. So just don't serve tacos anymore. What a joke. Mr. Tellez would be furious to see this kind of service at his Bandera Rd. location. How humiliating. I thought we were part of a circus act. When do the little cars with clowns come out? The woman serving food, had glitter make up, from eyelids to the half of her forehead, and lipstick that glowed in hot pink, with brown liner. And the Goth Girl/Boy, had hair hanging loose, under the Tellez cap, and kept his/her face down the whole time, all you saw were the two half inch spades, sticking out on the top lip. Like a catfish?? God almighty. Clean this mess up TELLEZ. Get some abuelas in there. If you want decent food, go to the Gen. McMullen location. Tellez on Bandera is a joke. Close it up. Contacting the Health Food Department. So many infractions. Food and employees in violation. Up chuck.

I ordered 6 "traditional" sized with pork and 6 cream cheese/jalapeno/chicken. They were moist,…read moreflavorful, and all ingredients well balanced. Masa: moist, not grainy, did not stick to foil, mild corn taste. Masa looks thick but is so tender, it melts in your mouth. Masa to meat ratio: about 50/50 Pork: finely ground but still strands of meat and moist and great pork flavor. You know it's pork. Cream cheese/chicken: this was my favorite. Slightly spicy from the jalapeno, very finely minced chicken and smooth creamy cheese. You are not eating this one for the chicken; the blending of the spicy cream cheese with the masa is the experience you will remember. These folks can usually be found peddling tamales from their restaurant in corpus Christi. They are licensed to peddle in San Antonio and all the adjoining cities. They can usually be found at 5616 Walzem Road one or two days a week. Check their Fb page for schedule. Granny's tamales-san antonio. They are the same granny's number 4 in Annaville.

IN QUOTATIONS ARE COMMENTS FROM GRANNY'S TAMALES ON 12/12/2020 FROM THEIR FACEBOOK PAGE IN RESPONSE…read moreTO A REVIEW BY SOMEONE IN OUR HOUSEHOLD THAT DAY. "Unfortunately we do not deliver to peoples houses." Your Facebook page has a post dated 11/21/2020 @ 12:55 pm that states: "call for delivery of 5dz or more." "In this situation we called to deliver early and after 12 attempts we could not get through to anyone." You previously stated above that you 'do not deliver' and your very next line says you 'called to deliver' early. I have also posted a copy of the Messenger conversation where you confirmed delivery and the time frame of 2 pm to 3 pm. You said nothing about not delivering to homes and you called one and a half hours before the scheduled delivery! That's unreasonable and unacceptable. And if there was the possibility that you were going to deliver early, you should have let me know when I placed the order. Even on Saturday, you could have called, texted, or messaged WAY before you did. You waited until the very last minute and then bailed. When I noticed TWO calls and ONE voice mail, I returned the call. You immediately asked if you could call me right back. Twenty-six minutes later you called me back with so many excuses. Excuses are nothing more than a reason to fail. You stated you tried to call from Montgomery Rd. If that was true, you were actually on the way to my house. AND, you would have been to my house BEFORE you could even have made 12 calls. You were 3 (or less) minutes away! You didn't even attempt to come to my house! That's what delivery is - going to the customer's house! "We always put our customers first but in this case we could not wait." You did not put me first. Your 'granny' would have been ashamed of the way you handled this situation. You should be ashamed of yourself. "We had 5 dozen unpaid tamales and had to head back to corpus christi." Again, don't blame me. If you had followed through as promised, you could have sold out. "We have extremely long days beginning at 2am and head back as soon as well sell out." Don't put the burdens of the business on your customers. Your business - your responsibility. "Like I said I do not deliver to homes." Yes, you do! Your own website states you deliver, but does not specify delivery to businesses or homes! When you confirmed my order through Messenger you agreed to deliver to my home. "And when I call and leave multiple voice-mails and no response. Yes we will have to move onto the next customer." You left ONE voicemail! When all of the orders had been completed at the Walzem location, all you had to do is simply come to my house to deliver as promised. Even if it was early and I did not answer the phone, three adults were home and the front door was open. A simple honk would have gotten our attention. "I'm sorry you had a bad experience." No, I do not believe you are sorry. On the phone you were fast and loose with excuses, speaking very rapidly, and so loud that others in the room could hear you even though you were not on speakerphone. This situation was not my fault and you didn't even offer to make it right. "But this business is not a store front its mobile and it is different." Mobile = Delivery. If you're already mobile, delivery shouldn't be an issue. If you cannot abide by the rules you have, might I suggest your business put into place some very specific terms and conditions? "Hope you have a great day and a happy holidays. Thank you. " We will have a very Happy Holiday. We will get our tamales from a more reliable and credible business.

The staff were kind & friendly, food was prepared quickly but carefully. We ordered the Chile Relleno Plate & the Jalisco Burrito Plate. We substituted Charro beans on both plates (you should too!!!) & they were AMAZING! They were well-flavored & filled with sliced sausage, bacon chunks, even chicharrones. I am not a fan of rice, I never eat it. But when I heard how tasty this rice was, I had to try. It was light, well-textured, & seasoned to perfection. Literally the BEST SPANISH RICE I've ever tasted (sorry, Dad)! I ate most of it... there was a lot. If you can believe it, both meals were even better than the rice & beans! The Jalisco burrito was FILLED with beef fajita meat & the perfect blend of thick tomato slices, lettuce, sour cream, & guacamole. Both meals had well-flavored sauce... the Chile Relleno especially. It had a ranchero based sauce which really made the dish special. Plus, the portions were hearty so we each have a full meal left over!

My wife and I used to love dining at Mi Jalisco Grill Mexican Restaurant on Babcock Road. The place…read morehad an authentic look, with soft Mexican music playing, and Spanish shows on the TV, and friendly and efficient servers. The food was simple but good; it was well seasoned, and the portions were fine. We were sad when it closed, but had hope when it appeared it was undergoing renovation. Today we went back and ate at Bryan's Mexican Grill, the restaurant that now occupies the building. In short, we were disappointed. Although the appearance had improved, and the new tableware looked good, the overall experience was lacking. First, the "music" that greeted us was loud techno. I hate loud music in restaurants. It was so loud the server who came to take our order had to ask twice. Eventually the volume was lowered (though still a bit loud for my taste). Apparently the loud music interfered with the server's hearing, as she misunderstood when we ordered the ceviche as an appetizer. It came at the same time as my wife's puffy tacos. My fish tacos took a while longer to appear. We didn't care for the ceviche--the overwhelming flavor was the raw onions. Couldn't taste the fish or anything else. My wife's puffy tacos weren't puffy; they looked like very thick browned tortillas. She said they lacked flavor. When my fish tacos arrived, the first thing I noticed was the fish was very brown and crisp--maybe overcooked? Other than being hot and burned, they also lacked flavor. They only had double tortillas and the fish. Nothing else. We ordered the jamaica to drink; it was tasty. But we were disappointed that the server never offered a refill, or water. We're probably not going back...
