CENTINELA MEXICAN RESTAURANT & BAR 215 West Bandera Road, Boerne, TX 78006

"I had a business meeting there for breakfast. It was quiet so we could hear each other talk. The food was good and the service was friendly."

"This place used to be great. Food was good, plentiful and tasty. Service was fantastic. We would come here every other week. Fast forward a year and things have taken a turn. My carnitas taco was so salty I couldn’t eat it and they served my taco with rotted cilantro on the side. The servers just don’t care otherwise they would have caught that. It was obviously brown and should be green, right? Gross. I brought it to the servers attention and she just took the plate away. Not a sorry or let me get you another. The fajita quesadilla was mainly fatty meat that was inedible. Please bring back the old cooks. In the last year we have tried them 6 times and it just keeps getting worse. I’m done. I have no idea why they have so many stars when this place is actually really not good. People in Boerne just don’t have a lot of options is my guess."

"First time here at 1:57 aft. Ordered a Margarita then looked at the menu and saw happy hour starts at 2. Waitress said she could not correct it because of when she entered it into the computer but didn't bother to tell us about it either. Ok, but she apparently had a shift change and never came back and didn't bother to let us know she was leaving. She acted like we were putting her out. Another much nicer lady took our order and made us feel a lot better about this place. It's too bad about some of the waitresses having such bad attitudes. Cheese enchiladas were good and so were the margaritas. You could tell Chips were out of a bag. At least go buy HEB chips."

"Good food and service. They have breakfast all day just $2 extra. I had Eggs and chorizo plate."

"There's rarely been a restaurant I have experienced that cared this little about the flavor, ambience, service and the food. We popped in on a whim and right off the bat we had a bad feeling. Smack on the middle of lunch hour there were maybe 5 people there including the two of us. Which we felt odd but we went with it hey at least we won't have to wait so long. Not the case. The table we sat at looked like it hadn't been cleaned in weeks. The menu was sticky to the point of we used napkins to open it. The waitress couldn't care less whether we were there or not and made it obvious she didn't want to be there and made sure her actions showed as much. Chips and salsa were brought out. Chips were low quality out of a bag but hey I m not picky. The salsa kid you not was pace picante. Now I don't dislike pace but seriously to go to a Mexican restaurant run by Mexicans be served that is pretty much an insult to Mexican food. We asked for any other salsas and the waitress acted like we insulted her. Snorted to show her displeasure and brought us two other ones. Which were apparently made in House now that's what we want when we go to a Mexican restaurant. Too bad one was too bland and little to no flavor and the other was just spicy with no real flavor. On to our entrees. I ordered a chimichanga plate and a beef burrito. My wife ordered chicken with creme sauce. The food across the board was bland. The chicken was under cooked, the chimichanga was fried well but the steak was very low quality, and bland as all gets. The beef picadillo in the burrito tasted wayyyy too fatty and again had next to no seasoning. I rarely add salt to my food simply because I have a very forgiving pallate. But it was salt on Everything multiple times. To top it off I bit in to a small pebble in my beans on the first bite. We specifically asked in Spanish and English if the beans had pork in them. Neither one of us eat pork. Now we understand and have no problem with the fact that many restaurants can't accommodate us and that's totally fine we usually go with charro beans instead of refried beans or go with extra rice no beans. The waitress went back to the kitchen and came back saying there's no pork in The beans. Guess what were beans made with? Bacon. When I pointed it out to the waitress she simply shrugged and walked away leaving us in disbelief at the lack of professionalism. We truly were shocked at her apathy. When I spoke to the manager simply to point out that the waitress is bad for business he couldn't care less. Even tho I started with telling him that I am not looking for free food and won't accept a comp. He simply said oh ok and started looking around as if it was some enormous chore him having to talk to me. It's rare that I complain about food in fact I don't leave a bad review unless I've tried a place at least twice and usually 3 times but these guys are there to collect a paycheck and couldn't care less about customers or hospitality. They're in the wrong business. The owner whom I didn't see should start making changes else these guys will run his place in to the ground."
