Ay Chiwowa Reviews

Definitely have had better Mexican food. Will not be back.

Food is DELICIOUS. Service friendly and fast. Clean, bright surroundings. Street Tacos & charro (?) beans excellent!!

Clean and friendly place. The menu has a nice variety of choices. Flavor of the food is good and the Margaritas are yummy! They also give military discounts!

Great food, service, friendly service, & good prices.

Over Price .. No good lunch Specials . I prefer Las Palapas .

For lunch, I had the mixed fajitas and a puffy taco on the side. Everything can out in less than five minutes. Apparently microwaved, not fresh. Fajitas were dry, just warm and chicken was only thigh meat. Puffy taco was soggy, not crispy at all and had potatoes as filler. Chips and salsa were below average and tortillas were store bought. Service was poor. Had only one visit from my waiter. To top it all off, this was 16.00. Note that this was my second attempt here. Will never go back and do not recommend.

I've been here twice and had a great experience. Service was prompt and friendly. I the plate I ordered was delicious.

Food was great and arrived quickly. Service was sub par. Had to flag down a waitress to get a drink refill, then only got half a glass of warm tea with no ice. Once our plates arrived we didnt see our waitress again until we were done. I don't expect them to hover but at least check back once or twice. The table near us jad the same problem with the same waitress.

I love having a great Tex-Mex restaurant here in the country! I've been at the restaurant 4 times, but 2 times in particular I remember having the BEST waitresses who treated my mom and me like family. I enjoyed their customer service SO much that I left them handwritten compliments and told their managers. Try the key lime pie--it tastes homemade.

This is the best Tex-Amex food I ve had since moving to the Hill Country!

M-f 3-7 happy hours the stars only exist because the micheldas are delicious here but the food is not texmex is it more original mexican flavor less, but the fajitas were tough and sadly nothing exciting. wait time was 15min the food came out fast the servers were nice, we just wont come back unless it's just for drinks. they do have codigo at $15

A hidden gem in Spring Branch. Great food, quality and service are outstanding.

Great Food and Great Service! Had a surprise birthday party at Ay Chiwawa on Saturday, December 28th in the private dining area. This area is typically used for general seating; however, there at two glass doors that can close this area off for private events. There was a reasonable minimum spend amount as it was a weekend night. Coordinated the party with Mauricio and Luis who were helpful and accommodating. Our dedicated servers were Francisco and Gloria, assisted by Luis and Joel. Everyone was very nice and attentive exceptional!

Food was good and exactly as I ordered it. Restaurant is very clean

One of my new favorite places to go out to eat while in the Spring Branch area. It's one of the new restaurants in a developing shopping area.
The restaurant is a nice size with a rustic decorated feel to it.
We have tried a few items from the menu and each one has been good and something we would order again.
They of course have regular fajitas on the menu but they also have a fajita plate that doesn't come with all the normal fixings of fajitas but with rice and beans. The fajita steak is extremely good, very tender and amazing flavor. I have never considered a Mexican food place for a steak but you should definitely try this plate when wanting good steak.
The burritos are large and fully stuffed. The wawa burrito has a great blend of flavors. The Carne guisada burrito is one of my husbands favorite.
I would absolutely recommend the Enchiladas De Crema-2 chicken or beef enchiladas covered in delicious crema sauce and Mexican cheese.
The chips and salsa are also very good.
I hope my review has helped you decide try a new place.

The soup combo was wonderful! Soup was very flavorful with lots of chicken.

Kitchen was slow, & it wasn't busy yet. But service was great! Chips, queso & salsa were not my favorites, but apps & entrees we ordered were good. Wawaritas were very good (also made by our server)! $9 for a good margarita in SAT-area is . Looking forward to coming back again & trying new dishes & drinks :)

Luckily, we had a great server, Sergio. He recommended the enchiladas poblanos plate. It was outstanding and service was phenomenal ! We will be back !

Great service, nice staff, food is good and the pina coladas are the best here.

Food was ok but not enough on the plate , for a meal. Service was very good. Most of food needs a little more seasoning except for the pinto beans. They were TOO salty and not enough for a serving.

Outstanding service.. Outstanding food. Love this place!

Excellent place, had them do some catering for a family holiday party, and just tried them for a sit down dinner. Food was great, wish the bar was open a bit later.

Great food and service! I wouldn't call it a cafe though, anyone expecting it to be one may be disappointed.

Fair prices, great and quick service! Ask for Dylan, the singing waiter!

I'm sorry I didn't mean to put one star it should of been 5. great tortillas and great barbacoa great beans and reasonable.

Place was clean, observing 6 feet, and masks, but the food is what should have been quarantined that day. Could have been a one off fluke, but who knows.

Great food at reasonable prices. I ordered their chicken rice soup and it was delicious!

The food is pretty good here, but the chicken soup and tortilla soups are the absolute best! I have had it a number of times and it never disappoints. My husband and I were both under the weather this week, and we went three times to pick up jumbo containers of soup. I also ordered chips and salsa when driving through and the chips were crispy, hot, and delicious. This is also a good place to come for breakfast.

Good service, good food, good prices. Live music was awesome with the 90 flashbacks

The food was really really good!
I loved the bar! Best margarita I've ever had!!

Awful. If this place existed inside the 410 loop in San Antonio (where people expect higher quality Mexican food) the reviews would be muuuuch lower than they are already. Service was ok, waitress wasn't the most knowledgeable or easy to communicate with (which is ok, not knocking that too hard); the food was just sooooooooooo basic, prices weren't bad but the food just left soooo much to be desired. Not enough seasoning, just bland food that fits with what probably their market is (older Caucasian folks who wouldn't want real Mexican food anyways :/).

We went here for a quick breakfast. The food was delicious and the service fast. Our server was super sweet and very helpful with menu suggestions.

The food was great. Service was better than most places in the area. Price was very fair
We got a tremendous amount of food for 40 dollars. Took home 2 take out containers.

Clean and not bad food. Salty chips. Tasty green sauce, spicy. Pirata taco is filling...nachos were decent.

Great food. They also have a large room in the back that can be used for meetings!

Service wasn t the greatest... slow! Pancakes arrived cold also

Staff was friendly and the drive thru is convenient. I had the nachos and they were pretty bland though with not many spices or flavors. Was the food bad? No, but would I go back for them a 2nd time? No

Never consistent somedays it's really good must depend on the cook

Great food, excellent staff, and even better margaritas.

If you like bland Mexican food and tepid margaritas then this is the place for you.

Great location, food was sub-par for the area. LOTS of Mexican food restaurants in the area, so to stand out it really has to be great. Service was so/so, drinks were safe, food was as expected. They have a couple of menu items where they venture out for something different, but just falls a little flat.

The food was not fresh...Tasted like fast food....Should be fresh made for that area....

This is my second time there and to be honest, my last time. First time there I had greasy tasteless fish tacos. Had a free gift card so I thought I'd give them a second chance after hopefully getting their act together. Had the steak tampenqueno, one of their "signature" dishes..downright awful. Steak was like a thick chewy piece of fatty, grisly leather.. whatever red sauce they had on the cheese enchilada was equally nasty..best thing on my plate was the lettuce and chopped tomatoes..hard to mess that up. Please close and open up a shoe store and sell your steak there.

Their breakfast tacos are good and so we stop by relatively often, but we've just had too many orders messed up or items missing. Today was the final straw. Stopped by for lunch and ordered, among other items, two hard tacos with cheddar instead of queso fresco because I'm pregnant and can't eat that type of cheese. Got home and realized they only gave me one taco, so I loaded up the toddler and drove back to get the second taco. Reminded them that I needed cheddar instead of queso fresco. Got home, and the taco is made with queso fresco, so now I've made two trips there today and paid for a taco I didn't get the first time and can't eat the second time. My bad for not checking the dang taco before leaving the second time. Unfortunately this type of thing happens too often there. Don't think we'll be back.

Food was great and everyone from manager to waitstaff went above and beyond customer service!

Delicious beef fajitas...tasty and tender!! Served on homemade flour tortillas

Very good food and a great atmosphere too as well ... I enjoyed it all. Will be Back!

The food wasnt good the guacamole had so much cilantro did it tasted like cilantro instead of guacamole

Great menu, quick, fresh yummy food. The fajita beef is great! We will return!

We have very poor service today food was cold but just not happy

Good senior plates. Flour tortillas good be better.

We had a wonderful experience. The bartender was great. The wait staff was courteous and very efficient.

Great food pretty atmosphere. Good service. Very reasonable almost all plates are under 10 . Hot sauce has lots of garlic tasty.

The food and service is always pretty good. They recently changed how they serve their queso and it doesn't work. Always gets goopy and hard for some reason, a little offputting.

Best place in Town for sure!!!! This is a weekly lunch spot for us!

Loud generic box with bland food. Doesn't taste like real Mexican food.

Awesome cheese enchiladas! great staff & very clean.

Everyone is friendly, but food is only okay. I will come back and give it another try
