Santos Cafe — Restaurant in San Antonio

This Mexican restaurant name has changed it is now called: El Sabor De Mi Valle Mexican Cafe. Owner told me the name of Restaurant changed on August 10, 2025. Name Change or not their food is still delicious❤️ First time eating here at Santos Café. When I saw Santos Cafe’s restaurant sign above their building, in front of their restaurant entrance. I said this doesn’t look good😳? because the sign was faded really bad. But I said don’t judge a book by its cover and give this restaurant a chance. So I walk in expecting the Worst. As I walk into this Restaurant I noticed this restaurant was very spacious, very CLEAN, their AC central Air working Good 👍 and their San Antonio Health Inspection was a 91👍 the food was flawless! Meat 🥩 was tender and tasting really delicious, the rice delicious, their salad and avocado fresh, tea really good, tortillas were amazing, salsas tasty and good. Last but not least The Boracho Beans were flawlessly delicious with the sausage, and all the other ingredients inside made these Boracho Beans one of the best Boracho Beans I ever tasted❤️ I will definitely come back to this...

The food looked very promising, yet was kind of a letdown. I was a little more disappointed with the fact that it wasn’t very busy when I went (which should have been a sign for me…I’m a slow learner sometime.). The food lacked in flavor for the most part. I asked for my coffee in a togo cup, but it came in a regular mug. I also asked for corn tortillas, yet I received flour. So the waitress was a little inattentive or maybe had A.D.D (which would be my issue if I worked here.) I’d also like to mention the fact that the gentleman at the table next to me also didn’t receive the pancake he ordered when he received his plate. The food was tasteless, and I always love me some nopales…I left my nopales on the plate, because they just lacked in flavor. When I left, I did find some delicious candies and desserts…and more importantly chimoy with tajin candy apples. If I ever go back to this place, it would just be for the candy apples. Oh yes, the bacon was good, but the beans were...

I had a bad experience. I rate this a one. One day I went in for lunch and ordered the Caldo, well as many as you know, the caldo comes with a side of rice. Well I took a scoop of the rice to put in my caldo when I smelled a horrible odor. I smelled the rice and behold the rice was spoiled. I had my lunch friends taste and smell it as well and they too acknowledge that the rice was no good. Needless to say, I did not finish my lunch. I then brought it to attention of the waitress and the manager and asked if they could take the caldo off my ticket, and the manager said NO, she stated that the rice was considered separate from the caldo that it is not part of the meal. I was so upset and since then I have not returned, and granted that I had been a loyal customer, I would order breakfast tacos and went there for lunch 4 days out of the week. People please be careful and always check and...
