I found this place on it was pretty busy for a Saturday morning.It seems to be like by many in the area.They had a line in the drive through , and almost every table inside was filled. While I would give them another try, I can't say my first experience was the best. I order two breakfast tacos with potatoes beans eggs chorizo and cheese. Before ordering them, I asked if they had a burrito instead, because this might seem like a lot of toppings for breakfast taco.But they didn't offer any so I told them to load up the toppings that I like and paid extra for each topping. In the end, all I could taste or see was beans cheese and potatoes.After I left as this was a tough order.It was too late for me to go back. The tacos. Tasted okay, but it just wasn't what I green sauce was pretty good as well.An addition to that i orders menudo. The flavor of the broth was pretty good but it seemed a little thin.I also ordered a large maneuver that is smaller than most places.I would get a large method of 4.And it seemed like they had only have filled it with the tripe. End of\nThe container is a little smaller than average.I would have anticipated that they filled it up with more than just the broth. Hopefully, next time I am nearby, I can try them out again.And get a better experience. read more

I really enjoy the food and service here, but today was the second time in the past month that my wife and I saw a cockroach climbing the wall next to our table. This one was larger than the first. I noticed another review mentioning the same issue, and unfortunately, this will likely be our last visit to this restaurant. read more

What a shame. All I can say. We stopped by after a wonderful Sunday service at Triumph church. This is going to be 99% about how bad the service is. I'm looking at it both from a customer point of view, and as someone who has kitchen experience. We walked in, it was not completely full, but all the open tables were dirty. We sat ourselves at a dirty table, and it took them awhile to clean it. Anyone here who runs a restaurant knows that is a big no no. I understand if they are slightly behind, but this isn't a 70 table place. It should be manageable for a single person. The key here is management or lack of it. I'm not trying to be mean. The food here is ok, but the service is really bad. Our waitress, bless her heart, was trying so hard, but she was the ONLY one trying. I assume the cashier or hostess, is also some type of manager. Made ZERO effort to help out. I could be wrong, but it seems that way. Ok I will get into the food, which also had horrible service. I order the original, we had the guisada and the puffy taco plate. In the industry you try as hard as possible, to bring out the tables dishes together. As in everyone gets their food close to the same time, unless the restaurant tells you a dish will be longer then give you the option to wait or not. They brought out my parillada original first, with no beans and accompaniments or tortillas, then we waited almost 20 mins for the rest of the food. This was perplexing. We asked the table next door, who were seated when we walked in, and were still waiting on food, if it was always like this, and they said it was their first and last time as well. I asked for corn tortillas, and they brought me extra flour instead. The fam, who are sweeter than me when it comes to reviews, were asking me what was wrong with the service and why it was so bad. It's not lack of personnel. It's bad management and lack of training. The kitchen was a mess. The runner was lost. The young girl cleaning tables was working like she had molasses in her veins. When I say it's a shame, the food here wasn't too bad. It's not anywhere near the best even in that area, but it's not bad. The corn tortillas when I actually got them were spectacular, the sauces were appropriately hot, and the food was well seasoned and cooked. Kudos for using the Sonic type ice in your drinks and having STEVIA! Work on the service, and you could be good overall! read more

This is my second time coming to this place after just moving in the area... I would consider this place to become my breakfast go to. The vibe is very much similar to Tia's Taco Hut, from the menu to inside decoration. The service is a bit slow. I feel they get overwhelmed after having a few guests at a time, drive thru as well. But overall I have yet to be disappointed with the food, it's good texmex. read more

I believe they are open till 3pm so hit them up for all your yummy taco needs. read more

I had a disappointing two visits: After having really great beef enchiladas, a week or so before, I ordered beef enchiladas again, I got home and they were cheese. I don't like cheese enchiladas because I'm not a fan of the thick cheese they put inside. The third visit, I asked the guy to please check to make sure they were beef because they had given me cheese enchiladas before. He said he misheard me; he asked if he could give me a cup of beef to put on top, because they made cheese (again). I explained that I don't like all that cheese inside cheese enchiladas, that's why I ordered beef. He said they would make me beef enchiladas. They did. There were not very good, I think they rolled up some picadillo in a couple of corn tortillas, put on the meat sauce and some cheese. They did not taste like enchiladas at all. Uncle Joe's is usually stellar; not this time. read more

Cute restaurant but Disgusting breakfast tacos. Way too much oil used. My daughter couldn't even hold the tortilla without it slipping out of her hand. Filled up 3 paper towels with oil read more

Went in for puffy tacos and a carne asada special ($8.99). Had 2 teas and was charged $37.45. Shame on them for overcharging me! Shame on me for not asking for an itemized receipt. read more

Food was actually pretty good, but the customer service was terrible. I pulled up during open hours with my coworkers to eat lunch, and as I was getting out of the car, a woman came to the door, locked it, and didn't say a single word. The drive-thru was completely free with no customers, so it wasn't even busy. Really disappointing experience -- good food, but the service completely ruined it. read more

Staff was friendly but I had to wait an entire hour to get food that was pre placed as an order, it was just 4 tacos and some menudo yet I sat and watched as plenty of other people ordered, were served, and then left. Dont come here if you expect to get your food anytime close to the time you order it. read more

Good food and kind people. Have always been impressed with the accuracy at the drive thru window and how they don't need to repeat my order but it's always spot on.. Great restaurant. read more

This hidden gem has some very tasty food!! Had the enchiladas, I always prefer the red Tortillas and not a lot of restaurants use them! I LOVE the chips and salsa!!! Always a good crowd, yet enough space to eat ! Hard to find good Mexican food in alamo ranch but glad we ran across Uncle Joe's! Staff is always attentive and timely! read more

Went to this place today and I ordered 2 ground beef tacos. I didn't get any toppings. When I called I was told that there tacos don't come with topping. Will never eat here again, my first and last time. read more

Homemade tortillas! It was probably pretty tasty, but due to all the grease from my AL Pastor taco, the taste was lost in grease. My tacos had plenty of filling, and Pastor had a great authentic flavor. I think they should give you an extra tortilla, though, to use without all the grease from the meat because my tortilla got pretty soggy. I definitely will go again because the prices are good. The to go stuff, Lilliana was super friendly and made recommendations as well as said, "I appreciate all tips, so please consider leaving one and I did! Tasty flavors just would like to have a do over on the Pastor, grease seeped through the bag and onto my leather console u fortunately but otherwise try it, it's good! read more

If I can give 0 stars I would do not go to this place ! Sat there for 15-20 mins waiter and waitress don't say hi or even acknowledge or give us menus. Tried to flag them for menu and just ignored us. Staff sucks ! read more

Food was good, menu was decently sized - not too limited, but definitely not overwhelming! The only complaint was that they don't have limes. We did a to-go order and got queso, street tacos, and an enchilada plate. My fiancé is super picky about his enchiladas and this is one of the only places we have been that he actually liked the enchiladas! Definitely a win there. The bistec street tacos were really good. Since we did to-go all the cilantro & onions fell off on the way home, but the flavor was great. Queso was decent - not the best I've ever had, but far from the worst.. possibly because we took it home so it wasn't white as warm & fresh anymore. As we were leaving, one of the chefs walked the food out to us and handed us the two bags of food. He then opened the door for us which was super kind and a first time a restaurant has done that for us! We will certainly be back :) read more

Found a baby cockroach in my horchata, I thought it was cinnamon bark and was praying but it was a black insect with antenna- most likely a cockroach. I was very flustered and forgot to take a photo. Food is good though. read more

I just left this place and i waited over 25 min in drive thru for the menudo. i had to walk inside and ask for a refund before they gave me the food. the lady said its because its freshly made. then yall should tell the customer how long it will be in the drive thru. i wouldnt have ordered if i knew the wait time. would not go back read more

Love the employees and the tacos are always on point. Friendly and affordable the lemonade is amazing

Stop here multiple times over the last several days. This is a drive thru and sit down site. We have used the drive the option both times. The service was great both times and had our menu correct. Food was great from the barria tacos to the tamales and the burrito. Not a complaint about any of the food. Would highly recommend this restaurant. The facility though we have not been inside looks very new modern welcoming. read more

Went to Uncle Joes Tacos for lunch on 11 May, my timing was good because I came after the early lunch rush. There were a few people eating inside and a few more came while I was there. Wasn't super busy but a nice flow of people. When I arrived I was immediately seated and was served with chips and salsa. The waitress was great and I ordered a dr. pepper and a deluxe Mexican plate. The food was pretty good, I will definitely visit again. read more

The food at Uncle Joes was good. That's it, just good. I have heard a lot of good things about them and wanted to give it a try. I did use the drive thru for my convenience but next time I will go inside and enjoy looking at the entire menu and ordering something that I don't feel rushed to order. Everyone deserves a second chance and will definitely give them another chance. read more

I always order the beef enchilada plate. I generally eat at Uncle Joes once a week. Service is great and they get the orders out in a reasonable amount of time. Prices are very affordable. read more

We will eat here again. My wife Got a variety of breakfast tacos through the drive through. The line moved swiftly and the employee was super nice making small talk (a forgotten art form) and offered extra salsa. I prefer their brisket and guisada tacos. We also had their ham n egg, bean n cheese, Migas, and chilaquiles which were okay. All were wrapped with care and warm. The tortillas were good. And so is their salsa. I'm an uncle too, and a good one, but I can't make food as good as this. Gracias Tio Joe! Keep it up. I'd share pics but we ate them all. read more

The tacos and menudo are delicious! Good service! Will come back again! The restaurant is very clean and pretty.

We enjoyed our nachos and enchiladas, even until the next day! Called our order on a busy Saturday around 12 nn, the drive thru line was packed and there was also a decent amount of customers dining in! Planning to come back soon and try their breakfast tacos! read more

Great location for Alamo Ranch, but they can't handle more than a few customers. I don't recommend until they get better service. We tried this place several times, and each time was chaotic and horrible. The limited staff disappears, and this last time, multiple customers were upset, looking around for over 40 minutes. The kitchen was full of people, but nothing was going on. People left without getting reimbursed; they waited so long and couldn't get help, so they eventually walked out. Calling ahead for takeout is an issue as well. Today, we waited over 10 minutes on Hold and then decided to drive there and order in person. The phone was off the hook the whole time. After telling them we were left on Hold on the phone, they didn't do anything about it and left the phone untouched, which makes me think perhaps it was intentional. I feel so bad for them as I'm sure it's stressful, but they don't have good order or basic service here. They need help big time. Hopefully, it's not ignored and can be rectified so they can succeed. I recommend when they reach their limit to let people know or at least give customers an expected wait time before ordering! Unfortunately, the food is not good enough to continue to suffer through if its growing pains. read more

Went for tacos and used the drive thru this time The food is great but the woman at the drive through needs better customer service :/ Sorry for writing this and I feel strongly about this Everyone has options now a days and you have to be the best to get repeat service I want you to succeed in all points of a restaurant read more

This food was not good. Sorry. The carne guisada tasted spoiled. The enchiladas were Mama Margie quality. The beans are ok but the rice was hard and bland. Chips are free after 11. $2.99 before that. Each refill is $2.25 even for tea and coffee lol. The wait staff was not friendly. Our waitress looked like she was mad the entire time waiting on anyone. The restaurant is clean which was the only reason I gave it a 2. read more

Originally, I wanted to avoid this place because of the mixed reviews and hoping that I wouldn't become one of the low reviewers, but here we are. The "fantastic" welcoming of someone who did not want to be there, (Pati I believe her name was) made me feel at home. After telling her, I wanted a Diet Coke she said "we have tea", and I said, OK, I'll take an unsweet tea instead and then she tried charging me for both the Coke and the tea. The entire time she kept looking at me as she was making the tea and I have no idea why. I've never been here before and I didn't know that I was supposed to sit down immediately after ordering, she made me feel like an idiot when she lightly said " you can either go sit down or you can fix your tea up here." so I just go find a random seat. About three minutes later, she literally tosses a bag of food on the table and says "here you go" and walks away. I was never asked if I wanted to go or to dine in and I was really looking forward to dining in so I can get the whole experience. The lack of service would really bring down the rating here. Feel free to check the video cameras lol. The food was OK. Rice and beans were good. The Asada taste like it was only seasoned with the tomatoes and onions it was cooked with. I would like to give this place another chance, but based on the experience I had, I will not come back. read more

5 starts will definitely come back for more. Got 4 tacos for 13$ which is reasonably priced because we got extra toppings on each taco. Hands down excellent place! read more
