A San Antonio staple, whether you are visiting or a local, this place is a mandatory stop. I've been here several times over the years but most recently last night for a large family get together. Our party was over 20 and the restaurant did their best to accommodate our size. Our server was great. The food is always amazing, fresh, authentic, and flavorful. You must try the puffy tacos, I recommend the Mexican cheese plate which includes one puffy taco, two cheese enchiladas, rice, and beans. If you're over the age of 21, I highly recommend the jalapeño margarita. This adult beverage only comes in a small, because it packs a punch. Its hold the highest amount of liquor they are able to put into a single drink. Great atmosphere, clean bathrooms, lots of seating.

The puffy tacos are truly spectacular. They're large and crispy. You can get beef, chicken, or guacamole puffy tacos. You will be full when you leave. The service is a bit lack luster but efficient enough. When they're busy it can be tough to get the server's attention. The restaurant is large with tile floors, so it's somewhat noisy. All in all, it's a great dining experience. This is mainly due to the quality of the food.

Love, love, love the charro beans here! Chips and salsa are always fresh, and chips are nice and crunchy. Guacamole is extra, but mine had some nice chunks of avocado and was freshly made. I had 1 chicken puffy taco, which was full of chicken, and the shredded cheese melted in the taco, making it extra tasty. I also had a picadillo puffy taco, and those are my favorites. I would have preferred a little extra lettuce and tomato, but it was still good. My server was attentive and brought everything out quickly. She kept my tea glass full and offered me a to go tea, which was awesome. It's definitely a favorite place for me. It's somewhat bustling with people, so noise is average. So many regulars here.

The food was good the service was good but it's sort of dark inside. The food was served hot and the plate presentation was typical of Mexican food restaurants... the puffy taco shell was great and on point.... I think this spot can be a hit or miss... while it was good it wasn't great...I like it for a lunch spot it's just ok but 4 stars for that puffy taco shell... that part was great... I'm so confused... lol

Best Cheese Enchiladas in town!! Great service and family friendly!!! I've been coming here for 30 plus years and discovered it since I was enrolled at St. Mary's University. Students and our professors would walk to the original one around the corner from St. Mary's. Always consistent! Original owners too! They ensure everything is done right!!

First time coming and didn't even get to try it I waited 30 minutes and no one came to the table and when I told the hostess we were leaving because no one came to get our drink orders or anything. She just said ok, would give zero stars. A waste of time,

Ambiance: They definitely, from the server to the busboy, exhibit the stereotypical southern charm we hear about. Patience with my mom, drinks were refined, suggestions were offered, all in all felt well taken care of. Food: The puffy taco was amazing, although the shredded chicken was tastier than the ground beef. As someone who never tried it, I would say a puffy taco experience is a must for out of towers. The queso had the right amount of kick to it, but velveety and perfect for the chips. My wife liked it all, but felt the shrimp was underseasoned a tad, so just be aware. My mom downed her frozen margarita like there was no tomorrow, so if that is your drink of choice, go ahead. Overall, highly recommended for some authentic and innovative tex-mex

I don't know why I've waited so long to post a review on this staple in my family. The food is consistently delicious and in all the years we've been coming here not once have we ever had a poor experience. We've even hosted several milestone celebrations and Henry's has always been more than accommodating. Full transparency there is music playing and mariachis on the weekend so if you have any sensitivity to sound this may not be the right place for you. For me and my family Henry's is definitely where we go when we want guaranteed quality Mexican food.

I was super excited to try this place, but it was disappointing. I think it's like an Olive Garden, where lots of families go, but the food is okay. The puffy tacos had a nice crunchy shell , but the filling had no flavor (besides the natural flavor of the ingredients). I even tried the fried fish taco. And the fried fish only added texture, no addition to flavor. I'm not a picky eater, but I wish they had salted it more or aded more flavor in the fillings or even included a better salsa/sauce. For $4 per taco, the filling was very average. I put the tartar like sauce on the fish taco, but it still didn't add much. I also tried the carne guisada and chicken enchilada puffy tacos. The meats had no flavor. I could get more flavor at home if I just added salt and some taco seasoning (or literally any other seasoning). The service was nice and we got seated quickly on a Friday evening for a table of 10.

Had a great experience dining in at Henry's for my first time during my visit to SA! The margaritas were amazing. I had 3 of the Puffy tacos including the carne guisada, spicy beef fajita, and ground beef! Was barely able to finish and the quality was top notch. Eddie was a great server and made the meal enjoyable with his recommendations and attentiveness. Definitely will recommend to others and look forward to visiting again when I'm back in San Antonio!

Overall score 2.2 out of 5I had the chicken fajita tacos. They tasted OK, but definitely overhyped.Staff was friendly and great service.
