Just tried Tulum Restaurant off Bulverde & 1604 and it did NOT disappoint! The food was absolutely delicious and truly authentic Mexican cuisine. Everything was packed with flavor, perfectly seasoned, and beautifully presented. The vibe and aesthetics are gorgeous--clean, vibrant, and such a nice place to sit down and actually enjoy your meal. It feels elevated but still welcoming. We also were informed that the owner also owns Coffee Crush which is not to far from here and equally great. The service was just as great. The staff were very friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. And the drinks OMG ! I had the cucumber lime Tulum Rita and it was made perfectly--so refreshing, smooth, and not overly sweet. Definitely one of those margaritas you'll want to order again. 10/10 recommend if you're looking for amazing Mexican food, great drinks, and excellent service in San Antonio!

A really nice date night or girls night place. Beautiful inside and a nice patio area. Everything we tried was excellent! Mahi mahi tacos, enchiladas verdes, ceviche and tortilla soup. The cocktails were great as well. Can't wait to go back and try the rest of the menu.

My family and I visited Tulum Mexican Cuisine to celebrate my dad's birthday. We requested a table for six, and although the restaurant was empty at the time, we were seated at a table that technically fit us but felt quite cramped and tight on space. That said, the customer service was exceptional. The ambiance is lovely, from the décor to the music, creating Mexican and enjoyable atmosphere. The cocktails were excellent and clearly made with fresh ingredients. We really enjoyed the queso fundido, the tinga, and the fish tacos, all were delicious and well prepared. My niece ordered the steak, which unfortunately was very fatty; she ended up regretting the choice and could not finish it. The camarones a la diabla were flavorful, but despite requesting them very spicy, they were not spicy at all. Desserts were a highlight; every one we tried was delicious. Overall, I would rate this experience a 4 out of 5. We would definitely come back. Just a note for future diners: gratuity was already added to the bill.

Fantastic first experience at Tulum last night and we're still thinking about it today! Our server, Aileen, did a great job helping us navigate the menu and make great choices. Browsing the menu, everything sounded good or at least interesting, and we ended up going with some shared apps so we could have room for dessert. Looking at the tables around us, it appeared that most tables were sharing apps! Great call, in my opinion! We started with a frozen mango margarita to accompany the complimentary chips and salsa. We really enjoyed that because it was made with actual mango purée and not some frozen mix. It wasn't super sweet - perfectly refreshing with a Tajin rim. For shareables, we were eyeing several options and started with 2: the Panuchas and the Queso Fundido. One bite of the Panuchas and we knew we'd be coming back. Piled high, they had the perfect balance of flavor and texture. Aileen brought us green salsa that delivered a little kick. Really flavorful. The Queso Fundido wasn't what you typically find, and it was much better than the usual. Served with corn and flour tortillas, it arrived in a cast iron skillet that left a crispy cheese lace (Frico) around the edges- the best part! Being that these apps were on the heavier side, we decided to go straight to the desserts next to make sure we still had room for them. After going back and forth between the options, we consulted with Aileen again and got the Tres Leches and the Flan. Both were delicious! The flan was topped with caramelized kernels of corn (they looked like raisins!) that gave it a unique flavor and texture. Loved it. The flan was also unique in that it was lavender infused and topped with toasted coconut. Creamy and heavenly. The decor was beautiful- casually chic and elegant. Beautiful light fixtures, tile around the bar, soothing colors, great music. The bar opens up to the patio, so you can sit on a stool outside and have access to the bartenders inside. The patio is large and spacious, and there are heaters for the chilly evenings. We can't wait to return!

The atmosphere is nice with nice decor and bar. Seating available outside. Staff were friendly and helpful with menu options. We tried the queso, flautas, enchilada verdes,and kid's quesadilla with fries. We had no complaints. Portion sizes were great. They do have a happy hour during the week too.

Tres leches
Regina K.

Came to San Antonio to visit my partner's friend, and we ended up at this spot, they had really good margaritas, the fish was really fresh and yummy, and, love the ceviche super fresh. The Tres leches was actually so good we almost got seconds. The waitress is really nice and the space was also super pretty.

Tortilla soup..very hearty
Royce S.

A very good and nice Mexican restaurant. My wife and I both started with a Tulum Margarita, which was very good but had a different taste, not bad, just different. For dinner my wife had the Tortilla soup. Our server, who was great, brought the bowl out but poured the broth which was thicker than normal. My wife really enjoyed the soup, her only thing was in her opinion there were too many Tortilla straps. I ordered the Enchalida Verda with chicken, which came with beans and white rice on the side. My food was very delicious, very flavorful and filling. Again our server was very attentive and wonderful. We will return

guac with fresh fruit
Renee M.

Nice restaurant with a subtle bar vibe. I felt comfortable having my young granddaughter there for lunch. Nicole took care of our party of 3. She checked in regularly to get our drink orders, appetizer order, and entree order. Not too quick to check on drink refills or give me the bill. Guacamole was tasty with an interesting fresh strawberry, raspberry, and blueberry garnish. Complimentary chips and salsa were excellent. Regular and blue corn chips. The red salsa has a nice zest with a subtle cilantro flavor. I could have been happy with just that salsa! Kid's quesadilla was pretty standard. Enchiladas verde were tasty. A bit surprised they were served with refried black beans and white rice. Enchiladas poblano were filled with chicken and nicely flavored. Also served with refried black beans and white rice. I expected a more flavorful zip to the beans. Plenty of parking. High chairs available. Full bar. Military discount for the ID card holder.

Appetizer very different guacamole (delicious)
Ana A.

This is a hidden gem ! The restaurant was great and the interior was pretty giving a Tulum vibe for sure- service was great and the food was flavorful! Definitely will be back for drinks next time as the drinks looked great as well -

Strawberries and blueberries didn't pair well with the guac. Easy on the lime! $23.00
Tomas S.

3.7 STARS. Nothing special tonight and certainly more on the pricey side. They just opened December 2025 so hopefully they will take my feedback as a way to improve. Check out the photos I posted for my quick review on each item ordered. I don't mind the higher prices as long as the food is elevated. The presentation is amazing. Well done although the food quality and taste could improve. Please upgrade the quality of your fajita cut. You are charging what Lupe Tortilla and Pollo Asados charges but they are using a higher quality cut. My entire steak was chewy. If you aren't going to use fresh flour tortillas you have to have a homemade corn tortilla. Please. Elevate. I won't be back unless they make upgrades and I get an invite back. I'll keep yall posted!

Excellent new Mexican restaurant. Tulum is raising the bar for Mexican cuisine in this area of the city. At first glance you can tell this is a passion project. Care, time and money have been put into the warm inviting environment. However, the food is what really sets itself apart from others. The menu strives to bring you a taste of the Tulum region. Everything was fresh, with no hint of premade canned ingredients. Seasoning was on point and everything was well prepared. Waitstaff was also top notch. My family will definitely be returning. Edit - after reading another review on the food, I would have to agree with the assessment of the flour tortilla. It wasn't great, but I expected this. They probably only have them because, it's expected in our region. This is not TexMex. Corn tortillas are more traditional, and while not the best I've had, were perfectly acceptable. Not everyone can be Rick Bayless!

Inside the ambiance is a mix between a bougie lounge, an elevated pub, and a whiskey bar. The lighting is intimate, there is fun decor and furniture all around The staff were friendly and professional. They are more dressed up than your typical bartenders, and each drink is artisanal and made with care The menu offers a variety of drinks, but make no mistake, this is a whiskey bar, so, whiskey is the main draw. And there's whiskeys from all over. You can have a cocktail, neat, on the rocks, etc. You can find very rare whiskeys, top shelf, and more. This is an experience, so, I wouldn't expect inexpensive drinks, but it's not crazy prices Some tips: Ask your bartender about "Flight Club" (whiskey flights) They also have an impressive humidor, and if you want to enjoy a cigar you can, but you might have to sit on the covered patio outside Cheers!!

I went for brunch on a Saturday. We tried a few items on their menu and shared between four of us…read more We started with the avocado toast crostini and the berry and goat cheese crostini. Both were very good. The avocado toast had a distinct lemon taste to it. The berry and goat cheese were excellent. The goat cheese, and the sweet berries made a great combination. For our main meals, we shared the eggs Benedict Trio, the Chilaquiles, the berry lemon croffle, and the banana foster French toast. The eggs Benedict Trio comes with a choice of three eggs Benedict from their menu. We had the original with Canadian bacon, the green chili pulled pork and the crabcake. Everyone loved the green chili pulled pork. The Chilaquiles came with your choice of red or green salsa. I chose the green one. It was a little spicy. It came with two eggs. I thought that it was missing some cheese. It could've also used a little bit more salsa. The banana foster French toast was to die for. Very good and definitely tastes like banana foster. The croffle was a great addition to our meal. We thought it was very good. Half of us had never had a croffle and now we are in love with them. They did give us a free desserts as we were celebrating my friend's birthday. For drinks I had the elderflower spritz. It's a little on the sweet side for me. The sangria was perfect. My friends had the bloody Mary and they liked them. They have inside and outside seating. They do take reservations. There's parking on site, but shared with the other businesses. The Waitress very nice. She was working the inside and the outside, But we never had an issue getting her attention or with any of our requests

Look for the green light and avoid searching around like a weirdo, like me lol. Once inside, I found the interior is cozy with seating for couples, small groups and bar seating. We asked the mixologist to put his own spin on old fashions and he delivered. I'm addicted to the spicy cinnamon version that he created! The quail pops were a nice little appetizer although they could have used a bit more seasoning. I think the drink and app prices were very reasonable. Service was laid back and friendly. My only reco would be to maybe put a bit more thought into the vintage decor and secret restroom. The restroom lock was hard to figure out, especially after a drink or two lol. Overall this Speakeasy is a great spot to add a bit of intrigue to your evening.

I finally put it on this year's schedule and planned to go with a group of ten. But, as the day drew nearer, folks just started cancelling for various reasons, until we finally ended up with a party of five today. When we arrived, I was surprised at just how much of a "bar and grill" this was. I started getting nervous about the food. I know we've all been to bars that had horrible food before. Fortunately, this is not one of those bars.The food here was really good. We started with an order of fried mushrooms served with gravy and deviled eggs. I'm not a fan of fried food, but the others all seemed to enjoy them. There was a huge mound of them that all but disappeared. I opted for the deviled eggs- one of my favorite foods. These were topped with a crunchy strip of bacon and served with a pile of pickled jalapeno slices. The were super delicious! On our member's recommendation, I tried the orange chicken served with fried rice for my entree, as did two others. I was overwhelmed with the gobs of food the server sat in front of me. There were at least twenty bite-sized nuggets of chicken sitting on top of a bed of fried rice. That bed was obviously a California King! They were lightly covered in the orange sauce, but still crunchy. It was a very satisfying meal. I had the other half for supper, and it was almost as delicious heated up in the microwave. One of our people had a pepperoni pizza. It was probably about 18". The crust was amazingly thin. It just looked awesome to me. My friend enjoyed it, but carried a lot home with her. The fifth person in our group had the Reuben sandwich. She said it was delicious, but was put off by the amount of fat on the meat. Encore makes their own pastrami. The chef explained to her that the fat on the pastrami was what most people thought made it such a delicious meat. I know it looked great to me. I will most likely have that next time I visit, and there will be a next time.
