In 1972, our parents Carlos and Mary purchased Rudy and Irene's, an established well known restaurant that had existed in Helotes for 24 years. The building contained a small dining room, kitchen and living quarters where our family resided for several years. It didn't take long for the restaurant to be recognized as a landmark for savory Tex-Mex cuisine. The secret to our success is simple... The delicious food is prepared fresh on a daily basis. Our food is a tradition that has been passed down from generation to generation, thus creating "A Taste Like No Other".

Today my twin brother and I have been inspired by the old town of historic Boerne. It is our pleasure to welcome you to El Chaparral Boerne. This gracious building was built in the 1870's by the French Architect Frank Lamott, it was one of Boerne's first two story homes and because of it's size was know as the "Mansion House." The old casa is a refreshing step back into the 19th century with it's high ceilings, wooden and stone floors, handturned rail and the enchanted rock cellar. So sit back, relax and we promise you'll enjoy romantic old world dining. Con mucho gusto Amigos!
