Very average
Saeturday night. We ordered taco salad, veggie tacos, and beef tacos. All were average. Service was fairly attentive. Parking isn't a problem. A decent place if you're in the area.
I'm addicted to queso, el pastor tacos with big red Rita! Seriously crave them constantly. Drinks are strong! Great place to go for girls night.
Delicious and Authentic!. The chicken breast with cilantro cream sauce rocks! Sangria- ritas are superb!
Great food, ask for Kat. Wonderful waitress.
Love this place! Patio seating, everything I've tried has been great. Try the queso with Pico.
Enjoyed the food! Great portions and good flavor. Looking forward to returning.
Great food. Unbelievable service. Replaced our chips before we finished. They even made some extra of their chipotle sauce for my wife I take hone with her order to go. Definitely will be coming back again.
Happy Hour! AJUUA!!!. My experience at ajuua was truly spectacular, the service was great, the food was delicious, i love the sizzling beef steak fajitas !! & happy hour well let's just say was surely happy for me. The drinks were amazing!! The Skinny Margaritas are the Absolute Best & low on calories!!! what more can you ask for!! =] Happy hour was from 11-730 i was so excited to enjoy a relaxing day of a few drinks & delicious food on the patio, it was a beautiful day & the server was just great! No complaints here i'm now a regular guest at Ajuua!! =] I highly recommend Ajuua !
Best place for happy hour!. I come for the margaritas and the patio and stay for the food! Unlike some places, they don't skimp on their drinks. During happy hour (until 7:30), $7 buys you a top shelf margarita that is oh, so good on a hot Texas day! In my opinion, the margaritas are some of the best in town! The chips are good. The salsa varies in spiciness almost every time we go. I haven't been too thrilled with their appetizers, but who needs them when you get chips and salsa? Get some queso, and you're good to go. Some of the menu items are hit or miss. Some of the better choices: Their shrimp tacos are well-seasoned, topped with slaw and pico, and their delicious chipotle cream sauce. Another favorite is the chicken enchiladas. Take note of their extensive list of possible sauces. They also make a pretty darn good Cuban sandwich. The service is always friendly and they have a fountain on their covered patio. In summary, the food is generally pretty good, but the margaritas will blow your mind.
Happy Hour to Dinner. It was just beginning to get a little crowded on Fri afternoon but we managed to snag a table on the patio. It was a beautiful day, perfect for patio seating even though the patio faces the parking lot like many patios around the city but at least they put in a fountain to distract you from the cars plus lots of umbrellas for shade. I had a glass of sangria, its refreshing & light on the wine. Then I had the top shelf w El Jimador & it was pretty good. We ordered the Ceviche Pacifico-actually its a Cocktail de Camaron cuz it only had shrimp & pico de gallo sauce but was quite good. On to dinner, I ordered the Tacos Nortenos-wow, they had lots of tasty beef & cheese, could have used more avocado but the flavor was delicious. My g-friend ordered the Churrasco Beef Skirt Steak and it had a really tasty beefy flavor. The chimichurri sauce that came out w that steak was outstanding. On top of all this good food was the great service, it was friendly & attentive.
Had the big shot burrito, great flavor and value. Chips and salsa were great as well. Would come back. Not great ambiance or service but it's cheap Mexican food so...

Nothing special. Very average. Wouldn't go out of my way to return. Wasn't bad, just wasn't memorable.
Dang good!. This place makes me wish I had an Ajuua next to my house back home! My wife was impressed by the Tinga Chicken and my simple chicken in tomatillo was really beyond expectation. Very nice very strong flavor with a simplicity most restaurants miss. I highly recommend this REAL MEXICAN restaurant, no tex mex cheese shower here!
A keeper.... I have been to Ajuua Mexican Bar n Grill several times and love it.
The food was delicious and my servers were more than pleasant.
The inside is modern and bright, with windows almost floor to ceiling.
The outside is very nice, but I prefer the inside with the air condition. : )
Good food and service. I've been here twice and had good food and service both times. Took my mom and boyfriend for their first time and they both liked the food. Went here w/ my mom and she really liked her quesadilla. They have soft, thick tortillas that don't fall apart when stuffed w/ food. My boyfriend had the enchiladas and he thought they were flavorful and filling. The chips are warm and crisp and the salsa is good. The manager went around talking to tables and also pouring iced tea. I think management has improved since the previous reviews because service was spot on. We were given glasses of iced tea before we were even done w/ ours. The menu is a little pricey but has unique selections compared to other Mexican food restaurants. They have a nice outdoor seating area w/ fans that mist water. Both my mom and boyfriend were impressed and said they would return for sure. I like this restaurant and have tried many Mexican food restaurants in San Antonio.
Great food and drinks! Mango margaritas....yum
Chilli lime tilapia fish tacos are the best!!
Good food. Tasty margs. Great service. Will be back.
Beautiful patio with waterfall tucked away in small center for a relaxing experience!! true authentic mexican cuisine flavors!! they offer a great happy hour all day til 8 which gives me ample time to enjoy n not b rushed after work!! el grito rita is smooth, strong n euphoric and the chipotle enchiladas are heaven!! great service and pleasantly nice and attentive staff!!
Food,Drinks,Music and atmosphere(on the patio) Off the chain!!! Will return. Fo Sho!!!.
Best Mexican food I've had in San Antonio. wasn't sure what to expect because the place is in a mini shopping center, but if the place downtown people would forget about acenar. this is not your heavy Mexican food type of place. everything is plated great and comes out looking very sexy! the food is light and well priced! I'm bringing friends next time.
Great light Mexican food. Coming from Southern California, it's been hard to adjust to the heavy Tex/Mex food often found in San Antonio. This place gave us exactly what we were looking for...light flavorful cuisine. My favorite is their Tortilla Soup. It's simple and wonderful.
Hidden Jewel!. Since it is not located on the access road of a major Highway, it doesn't get the exposure of traffic other restaurants get. If you don't know it's there, you're missing out! They've got the best margaritas, and reasonably priced food with really good quality, taste and portion! They don't only serve Mexican cuisine, but other Latin cultures as well, such as Brazillian Caiperenas, and churrasco steaka. Mmmm Mmmm Good! You've got to try the whole menu soon! You won't be dissapointed. You might even see Robert Horry there, he frequents the place so much, they named an enchilada plate after him.

Ajuรบa, on the north-west side, is a much more current sort of slightly-upscale Mexican restaurant. A modest space in a modest shopping center that also features a kolache bakery and a Chinese restaurant, Ajuรบa is relatively new, with attractive dรฉcor of a much more contemporary sort. We still had to wait an inordinate amount of time upon our arrival, nearly half an hour after the day's opening, but this time it was because everyone on the staff (except the bartender) was in a meeting somewhere o
Hey there! ๐ I just wanted to share with you my recent experience at AJUA Mexican Restaurant and how amazing it was! ๐ฎ๐ Sofia provided great costumer service!
Let me tell you, the flavors of their Mexican cuisine were absolutely fantastic, and I couldn't get enough of it! ๐คค From the moment I entered, I was blown away by the beautiful and vibrant decorations that adorned the entire place. ๐ต๐จ It truly added to the overall experience and made me feel like I was in Mexico itself! ๐ฒ๐ฝ
Every dish I tried was bursting with authentic Mexican flavors, and the variety on their menu was beyond impressive. ๐ Whether it was the sizzling fajitas, the cheesy quesadillas, or the mouthwatering tacos, each bite was filled with pure deliciousness. ๐ฏ๐ฎ And let's not forget about their delectable salsa and guacamole which were the perfect accompaniments to their scrumptious dishes!
Not only was the food outstanding, but the service was exceptional too. The staff at AJUA Mexican Restaurant were so friendly and welcoming, making me feel right at home. They were always ready to answer any questions I had and suggested dishes that suited my taste preferences. ๐๐ผ
What really impressed me was the attention to detail in the restaurant's decor. The vibrant colors, traditional artwork, and beautiful Mexican motifs created a warm and inviting atmosphere. It truly felt like a mini getaway, transporting me to Mexico with every step I took inside! ๐ฎ๐ต
I highly recommend giving AJUA Mexican Restaurant a visit if you're in the mood for some delicious Mexican cuisine that will leave your taste buds dancing with joy! ๐ Don't just take my word for it, go and experience it for yourself. You won't be disappointed! ๐
Alright, I hope this message inspires you to try out AJUA Mexican Restaurant soon! Let's plan a trip together and enjoy the amazing flavors and beautiful ambiance that this place has to offer. ๐ฎ๐ต๐๐ผ
The food was great and very flavorful. The only issue is that the staff either didn't speak loud enough or the atmosphere was too loud. I kept having to ask the server to repeat themselves.
Had lunch here yesterday and the food was Great!!! Beth was the hostess again and Destiny was our server! Excellent customer service!! Will definitely return again and would definitely recommend. I had grilled chicken with creamy sauce on the side and Mexican rice and refried beans. Hubby had Beef enchiladas with red chile sauce, refried beans, Mexican rice and tortilla soup. We also had tortilla chips and salsa.
Since I was in the area near this place, I decided to try out their food. This is a very welcoming and hospitable place. I was greeted as soon as I walked in by the lady at the register. She offered me cold water while I waited to order. She stated all the food there was authentic Mexican food and tasted good. I ordered 2 Big Shot Burritos with ground beef, Mexican cheese, refried beans, Mexican rice, guacamole, Mexican Crema, an order of Chile-Lime Fish Tacos and an order of Flan. Each Big Shot Burrito were enough food for 2 people. The Chile-Lime Fish Tacos came with cilantro rice and black beans. This is the best tasting authentic Mexican food my hubby and I have ever had. The food was well seasoned and the portions were ample and the prices were very reasonable. The Manager was very kind when I added the flan after the fact. The Waiter came out with my food and stated he double wrapped the black beans and to be careful they were placed on the side of all else in bag. He even offered to walk with me to carry out order. We have just found the best locally authentic testing Mexican food here in San Antonio, Tx. Will definitely return again and certainly recommend to others. The wait for orders was very quick. The food was excellent. Would definitely return and would definitely recommend.
Our new favorite Mexican restaurant!! Too many great dishes to choose from but no matter what we get, we always order a side of the creamy poblano sauce. Carnitas are awesome and Kasey is the bomb on wait service. Palomas are delicious.
Great place to eat! Spanish rice was my favorite. Highly recommended!
Was seated right away. Customer service was excellent. Really enjoyed the bacon wrapped jalapeรฑos (: thank you. Was my first time there!
The service and food were both excellent. Christopher provided regular service and his suggestions were on point.
The buttered tacos sounded ok but they were delicious. The shells were crispy and meat was full of flavor.
He suggested the cilantro sauce for the enchiladas & I asked for a side of it to try it. O my goodness it was amazing. I would highly recommend getting it.. on anything. I put some of it in a taco and it made the buttered taco even better. I then had some on a chip & it was just as good.
If you get a margarita, go for the top shelf. It's just the right amount of hard liquor and makes it even more delicious.
I will definitely return here!
Trying to find a last minute brunch place that sat a group of 10 people inside. I called before they opened and a lady answered. She answered all my questions and was very pleasant to speak with. When we got there she was our server and did amazing. She explained the buffet to us and was on top of everything. The food was great and everyone had something to eat from the buffet. I was so happy that everything turned out great.
Compared to the chain Mexican restaurants in the San Antonio area, this restaurant is great. Decent salsa, great fajitas, soups, and margaritas. Service is always spot on and the one time it wasnโt the waiter was very kind and apologetic. I would recommend ordering a side of creamy cilantro or poblano to go with your meal (especially fajitas) because they are fantastic!
We hosted our holiday work party for 50 people on 12/14. From beginning to end the Ajuua team was amazing. Jorge and Steven helped us set up our reservation, spoke to us about lunch options and how to best set up the tables. On the day of the event our section of the restaurant was ready to go by 11. The place was decked out with holiday lights and with a pretty tree. It looked very festive. Our teams arrived by 12:30 and the waitstaff was ready. They were friendly, efficient and courtesy. The food arrived promptly and was delicious! Everyone cleaned their plates. The lunch specials were priced right and had a good portion of food. We had a great experience at Ajuua and highly recommend you check them out. We will be back! Gracias!
