Best

No matter what you order, fresh made tortillas you get. This place has great food for a fabulous price. Just be aware, you may pass this place up trying to find it, so drive slow ...

Worst

Typically bad service, always bad food, Not typical San Antonio Tex/Mex cooking. Look elsewhere for good SA mexican food. Hwy 281 review.

Made from scratch tortillas! 4/6/2008

No matter what you order, fresh made tortillas you get. This place has great food for a fabulous price. Just be aware, you may pass this place up trying to find it, so drive slow when you exit I-10. With 2 locations in SA, this place is a ""must eat there"" restaurant. Pros: Great Tortillas! Cons: Tricky I-10 Exit. more

Banquet Buyer Beware - Don't book a banquet here unless you want to throw your money away 7/10/2007

My daughter-in-law recently booked a rehersal dinner here. There was no written agreement and the estimate was a max of 40 people. The service was ok but the food was unimpressive and the price excessive for the fare. The real surprise came when I was presented the bill. I was charged for 12 more dinners than diners. The manager claimed that you pay for your estimate not your actual number of diners. Overall, this place is a rip-off. There are better Mexican restaurants in San Antonio and probably better banquet facilities. If you want to throw away your money, then dine here. Obviously the customer is not welcome here. more

Best TexMex/Best Service/Best Ambience 4/15/2006

My family has eaten here for years. The manager George makes sure that our meals are right. The service is the best I have seen in town. The food is wonderful - not a bad meal on the menu. Freshest chips and tortillas (corn or flour) in town. Tortillas are made in glassed area in front of you. Beer is cold, but their margaritas are not my favorite blend. When you ask for your bill, the staff have it in their apron. Alamo has figured out that good service equals to fast turn of tables, lessening the wait for others. I have never, by the way, waited more that 10 minus for a table. Usually, there is no wait at all. Plenty of seats for groups to. Highly recommended. Pros: Best TexMex, Best Service, Best Ambience more

great place to eat 6/24/2003

We stopped at Alamo Cafe on Sunday and were worried when we saw how full the parking lot was. Once inside we had no wait time for our table, our sever was fantastic and the food arrived quickly. Everything was delicious.....no complaints at all! more

Alamo Cafe Review 3/21/2003

Alamo Cafe is always busy, yet you never wait more than 10-15 minutes even on the busiest nights. I go at least once a month for the past 4 years, and I have only had one problem with service. But the management was quick to make ammends with 5 free future dinners. The food is outstanding and I highly recommend Alamo Cafe. And opt for the outdoor seating in nice weather! more

Delicioso! 5/29/2002

They have the best, most fresh tortillas in town! The food is plentiful and delicious! My family of 5 never leave the restaurant hungry! The service is great and the price is right. My family can eat dinner for under $35.00! We are new to SA and so far from all the mexican restaurants we've tried the Alamo Cafe is the BEST. Pros: Inexpensive, Plentiful food Cons: Parking, Occasional sticky flr, Smoking allowed more
