Reviews

The food options are usually pretty good here.
The menudo is delicious, and so is the barbacoa.
My only complaint was that the tamale masa was dry on this visit, not the norm.

When I moved to San Antonio, I asked this woman who worked at a laundromat if she knew where to buy Menudo, tortillas, barbacoa, etc.
She said the best was Alamo Molino and she was correct.

It's the same small tamales, for the price it's good.
I would recommend the La Michoacana tamales, they're very generous tamales compared to the tamales in this and other establishments.
Overall, they are very good considering their size.
