Antojitos El Alamo

This place is tucked away by Harlandale High School and the food is a 10! This is old school homemade Mexican food including the tortillas. The cook is a grandma who can COOK I want to adopt her lol. Come out and try it you won't be disappointed.

I had their chicken fajita, bean and cheese and chicharon in salsa tacos. The chicken fajitas was really good, it wasn't dry, and was well seasoned. The chicharon was ok, I didn't hate it, but definitely not a hit with me personally, although maybe their green salsa option with the chicharon(I tried their red salsa option) would be better? I'll have to try it the next time. The bean n cheese was good, the beans had a good taste, although the cheese was a bit oiler than I would like but nothing major to take away from it just a personal preference.The tortillas were ok, not the best tortillas I've had but definitely not the worst. The tortillas were a bit on the harder side rather than soft and somewhat thin. The tacos size though made up for it!The service was good, the guy who took my order was patient with me as i looked over the menu and answered my questions. He was enthusiastic as well so it felt welcoming to go in and order food.San Antonio has many Mexican restaurants, but the ones that provide a good service and food that feels homely are the small places that don't look fancy maybe they don't have a printed out menu behind a laminate and make do with what they have, and Antojitos is another good example of a hidden gem worth coming in to have a good meal.

The cashier was very courteous and upbeat. So, it was very welcoming. I took my Grandson after school he is 10. My grandson commented on the colorful walls and how his treat was amazing. Hot Cheetos with the works. So I definitely recommend this place. Clean, Courteous. I went back later that evening the cashier once again a different one this time and he took was welcoming. The young lady helping to prepare treats not so much. I asked about the specialty sauce prices. She responded hurried and somewhat bothered. Nonetheless my overall experience was good.

Well I guess the reviews here just disappoint!! We sat down and was attended immediately as there was only 2 tables in restaurant. But let me tell you the Tea Is Nasty you can taste the ice which is most likely freezer burn or bought from those ice machines and used to serve. Well as I sat there and watched the cook make the food he had a dirty rag on stove counter and he would cook one thing and then wipe pan with that dirty rag and start something else disgusting thankfully that wasn't our food but this place is really a NO GO!! beans also were very runny and overall I'm just disappointed I even went it in..
