Finally, my friends at Mezcaleria Mixtli do awesome tacos. There are a variety of fresh salsas with varying degrees of spice. They have a very good salsa bar, which we don’t see often in San Antonio. My favorite item there is the crispy lengua (beef tongue) taco, and the carnitas burrito is solid, too. There are several locations, but there aren’t many seats - it’s mostly for to-go orders. Another personal favorite of mine is Los Roberto’s Taco Shop.
It’s a large restaurant, and a busy one - you’ll always find at least 50 or 60 people dining there. The picadillo (ground beef and tomato stew) with beans and cheese is also excellent. Having experienced so many tacos in SA, I can honestly say that there is no “best” in San Antonio, but these are my personal favorites.Įl Milagrito has excellent breakfast tacos, but my favorite order there is the pork chop taco with guacamole - it’s delicious. The flavors, ambience and experience make a wonderful connection to the country that many San Antonians call their historic home. To me, the offerings here are most like ones you’d find on the streets of Mexico City. Another favorite is the taco truck Tacos El Regio, also known as the Hard Bodies Taco Truck for its location on North St. If you visit, try the sopa de fideo (vermicelli noodle soup) with your order. We enjoy the calm and reflective flavors that are so fresh and exciting to the palate. This restaurant is a favorite for daytime tacos that are indicative of interior Mexican cuisine. My favorite tacos in town are at Cascabel Mexican Patio.

As San Antonio’s population booms and its food scene reaches new heights, it seemed high time to check in with some of the city’s leading culinary lights to learn more about their preferred taco haunts. Unlike other Texas cities, most restaurants here make their tortillas by hand, and many restaurants eschew modern design accents, instead choosing to honor the comforts of tradition and time. San Antonio has long been associated with Tex-Mex cooking.
