    This option, molcajete, was incredible, and abundant. Coffee was good and strong, even in the evening. We’ve been customers for years, and the food quality has never changed. Best place for like homemade Mexican food.

    Easily the best Mexican food I've had in Texas, portions so big i could barely finish my plate. Complimentary nachos con queso when we arrived. Top notch service from our wonderful server papo, I could go on all day. Definitely one of the best places I've been to in Texas. I leave 100% satisfied and hope to be able to return one day. Please give taqueria Vallarta a try if you're looking for great, authentic Mexican food.

    We usually go through the drive thru, however we stopped inside & it was so good! Ended up taking the rest home because we were so full.

    This place is my go-to Mexican restaurant and definitely one of San Antonio’s hidden gems. The portion sizes are always generous, the service is fast, and the food is consistently great. You really get a lot of bang for your buck here. In my opinion, this is the #1 value spot for Mexican food in San Antonio.

    The restaurant itself has a homey traditional feel, exceptional decor, and staple Mexican dishes. The price with the food portions were great! I got what I paid for, plus excellent customer service. My server was kind, attentive, bilingual, and quick as I was just having a quick bite before work and got out with enough time to spare. I will definitely come back and bring people to enjoy this place the way I did!
