Mimi's Barbacoa Tacos Tamales

"Best Barbacoa in town!! And the staff and owner are awesome!! Super friendly service, great food, and overall just a great vibe. This little Barbacoa restaurant is the best in San Antonio!! Go early to avoid the constant traffic. And so they don’t run out before you get that mouth watering barbacoa!!"

"I recommend Mimi's for their barbacoa. The "All Meat" is tender, flavorful and not greasy like other places. The price is a bit high but worth it. I don't recommend the tamales though. This was the second time getting them and were soggy having a higher masa to meat ratio. They are kept in a plastic bag which is probably why they're soggy. The tortillas are ok so I mainly only get the barbacoa from mimis and the sides at other location. Customer service is always good. I plan on trying the Tacos soon but I always get caught up with buying a couple pounds of barbacoa cause it's the best in san antonio. It was $36.85 for 1 pound of all meat barbacoa with salsa and a dozen tamales. No other items on this purchase."

"Went a little hard on a Saturday night and had some local peeps stay over. Everyone woke up hungry so I mentioned Mimi's. I had huevos rancheros and it came with papa's(potatoes), refried beans, and 2 tortillas and I added bacon on the side, a 2L big red and everyone else had breakfast tacos. My plate was delicious. I didn't even share. Barbacoa continued to be the top on the convo. They didn't want to order a pound of barbacoa(barbacoa trust issues). So they ordered tacos to test it out. First, the taco could of probably made 3 of them. 2nd, they wished they had ordered that pound. They even mentioned that the barbacoa from here was better than what they are use to having.The green salsa was a hit(pica pica) as well as the pico de pallo. They were very nice and awesome. Cant wait to try everything else they have to offer."

"This review is strictly for the all meat barbacoa! Very tender meat with little to no fat and not greasy. I really don't care much for the corn tortillas or salsa which is no big deal because I can get that elsewhere. For just all meat barbacoa, I do recommend Mimi's."

"Ladies were really sweet but Guy taking orders was rude and offensive. And I'm not thin skinned. I mentioned that prices were different online and he said "If you can't buy them then don't" I was embrassed and in shock that he said that to me in front of everyone. Mind you this is my first time..buying $70 worth of tacos alone. Which were greasy, bland and then tortillas weren't even homemade. Overall, the tacos weren't all that and what made them worse was that Boy. I choose local because it's hard out here for small businesses but don't judge people when their questioning about the business. Its not that big of a deal but We won't ever be back."
