Our Story
Simple, Honest Mexican Cooking
Tucked into the heart of San Antonio on Military Dr W, The Mexico Taqueria has been dishing out generous, no-frills Mexican plates since the doors first opened at 6 AM. We're not fancy — we're fast, affordable, and consistent, which is exactly what our regulars come back for.
Our kitchen keeps it classic: sizzling shrimp nachos piled high with jalapeños and sour cream on the side, hearty combo plates like the beloved #22, and daily specials that rotate with what's fresh. One regular put it best after ordering the shrimp nachos: "plentiful" and "tasted great" — and that's the standard we hold every plate to.
We know we're a working taqueria, not a white-tablecloth restaurant — and our customers love us for it. Real prices, real portions, real Mexican food, served with a smile from sunrise until late most nights of the week.

What Customers Say
"I got the shrimp nachos, which were really good and plentiful, but a bit simple. Jalapeños and sour cream were offered as a side addition. To be fair it is an appetizer, and was structured as such. Tasted great 👍"
"Delicious and regular prices! I ordered #22 and my friend ordered some type of shrimp plate. It's not the cleanest, but what did you really expect?"
