Los Trompos Tacos de Barrio

This was a "saw a video on Facebook" restaurant that looked good and wanted to try. As a Hispanic sometimes it's hard finding traditional tacos de trompo. I was pleasantly surprised and how good the food was here. I ordered the Big Mix, an Aqua Fresca Limonada, Gringa Al Pastor and side of charro beans. The Big Mix was a great combination and option if wanting to try all the flavors and types of tacos. It has 3 Al Pastor, 3 Asada, 3 Longaniza, 3 Al Pastor Verde, & 3 Campechano. There is a smaller version called The Mix which is 1 of each of the types listed above. The limonada was refreshing and traditional. The Gringa was good but least favorite of the whole order. The charro beans are a must.

I stopped by Los Trompos Tacos de Barrio after hearing a few friends talk about their tacos, and now I completely understand why this place stays busy. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt lively and welcoming without trying too hard. The smell coming from the grill alone was enough to make us hungry instantly. We ordered a mix of tacos, including al pastor, carne asada, and birria, and every single one had incredible flavor. The tortillas tasted fresh, the meat was juicy and well seasoned, and the toppings actually complemented everything instead of overpowering it. The al pastor was probably my favorite because it had that perfect balance of smoky, savory, and slightly sweet flavor. You can tell they put real effort into authentic street-style Mexican food here. The service also stood out. Our server was patient, friendly, and gave great recommendations since it was our first visit. Even though the restaurant got crowded during dinner time, the food still came out fast and hot. I also appreciated how clean the dining area was, especially for such a busy taco spot. What really impressed me was that the food tasted homemade instead of overly commercialized like a lot of taco places nowadays. The portions were satisfying, prices felt fair, and the overall experience was genuinely enjoyable. I’ll definitely be coming back with friends and family because this easily became one of my favorite taco restaurants in the area.

Food was delicious! I ordered the Al Pastor and the meat was perfectly seasoned with pineapple and really well served. My husband ordered green and red Al Pastor with grilled onions and he really liked them as well. We had previously been to the other location on Hillcrest and really loved those as well, this location is closer for us and will be definitely coming back. 😋

Sweet family run restaurant serving up tacos and tortas. Service was friendly and fast and their green sauce was delicious.

I can’t say enough great things about Thai99 Express! My wife and I dine here at least once a week, usually after church. It’s our favorite day of the week! The food here is simply phenomenal—easily the best Thai cuisine I've ever tasted!!! Each dish is packed with authentic flavors, fresh ingredients, and an incredible balance of spices. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with warmth and friendliness by the owners, Wen and Brandon, who truly make you feel right at home. Their passion for both the food and their guests is evident in every detail. I highly recommend this little gem off Huebner Rd. to anyone craving delicious, creatively prepared, authentic Thai food. Thai99 Express is our new favorite in San Antonio and an absolute must-visit for anyone who loves great food and wonderful hospitality!
