Uncle Joe’s Tacos, located at 11996 Alamo Ranch Pkwy in San Antonio, TX, has garnered a fervent following and rave reviews from local patrons. The charm of this Mexican restaurant lies not only in its delectable offerings but also in the warmth of its service. Many customers, like E. Paige, attest to the restaurant's consistent quality, especially praising the flavorful menudo and the attentive staff.
D A highlights the exceptional tortillas and enchiladas, while Rick Avila applauds their breakfast menu, particularly the migas—a dish celebrated for its generous toppings of cheese and sides of beans and potatoes. Despite limited seating and hours (only open until 3 PM), loyal customers appreciate the unique charm that comes with a focus on quality over quantity.
Angel Moreno's experience reflects the freshness of the food, declaring the horchata and salsa unmatched in flavor. This sentiment is echoed by Robert Santos, who has been a patron since the restaurant's inception. While it may not cater to health-conscious diners, the comforting and hearty options at Uncle Joe’s make it a worthwhile destination for those looking to indulge in authentic Mexican cuisine.

Despite a rocky first visit, I highly recommend! We’ve tried several dishes and every one has been delicious. We love the menudo! Service is always attentive and friendly.

Best tortillas, great enchiladas, awesome breakfast tacos. The best staff. Only open til 3pm most days, wish the hours would extend but that is part of what makes Uncle Joes unique: quality food for limited time! Love this place! Highly recommended!

We have breakfast here often, and the food has been great every time. My most recent vist I had the migas served with patatos, beans and topped with chees. The restaurant does not have a lot of sitting, so if you do go during a busy rush, you might have to wait a few minutes, but usually not long at all. The service is always great dining in or drive through.

It was packed so of course our to-go order took a minute but it was FRESHHH, so hot and tasty. The horchata and salsa asmothised me since I haven't had anything good as them lately. Chowed down my 2 tacos in less than 5 minutes. Only wished the breakfast tacos had a little more egg

Been coming here since it opened. Foods always great and service is good. Not ideal place for healthy eating but not sure many taquerias are. Located in Alamo Ranch our choices are limited if we don't want to travel far. Luckily this place is close by and worth it.
