Boerne
Über das Restaurant
It’s well worth taking the trip north out of San Antonio to Boerne, even if just to visit this waterfront restaurant. The nostalgic wooden deck overlooks the Cibolo Creek, or diners can head inside to the quietly elegant dining room. The gentle ambiance complements a menu that has a little something of everything, from Fried Calamari to Fettuccine Alfredo. Look for the fish tacos; pan-seared mahi-mahi with mango, salad, and black beans. A place to relax and unwind by the water.

Über das Restaurant
Pico de Gallo makes a big claim: that it serves the best authentic Mexican food in San Antonio. The Mexican vibe is certainly strong at this popular downtown restaurant, particularly the colorful décor and lights. The menu is just as colorful, with exciting platters of Mexican favorites to sirloin steak with Spanish rice. Guests can order tacos by themselves, or as part of a Mexican dinner with enchiladas and refried beans. Either way, those shells filled with flavor keep diners coming back for more.

A regular contender for the best Mexican restaurant in San Antonio, Paloma dishes out some of the city’s favorite tacos. To start, there’s the Tacos al Pastor with the juicy surprise of pineapple, or street tacos combining the sacred trio of beef, onion, and cilantro. For mains, their Tacos de Pescado gently wraps tilapia in corn tortillas, with avocado and a fiery salsa. Ask about their menu of Paleo and Gluten-Free options.

Über das Restaurant
Biga on the Banks is a River Walk eatery with stunning views and a world-class wine list. Biga showcases New American fare but with strong San Antonio flavors. This makes for dishes like the habanero rubbed scallops, and local greens with Texan apples. The menu changes regularly with the seasons, but current offerings include the indulgent beer-battered avocado and butternut squash flautas, with tender and flavorful Spanish rice. A different spin on the San Antonio taco.

Über das Restaurant
Head towards the North Loop and pop into the Plaza Las Campana to discover San Antonio’s branch of Eddie V’s. This chain is famous for some of the best steaks and seafood around. A good portion of that juicy seafood ends up in one of the favorite appetizers: the Maine Lobster Tacos. These luxurious treasures are the indulgent way to start any meal, with tender lobster lovingly wrapped in fresh, house-made tortillas with sweetcorn pico. Booking recommended.

Bird song and sunshine is the backdrop at this incredibly bright and airy dining area at the Hotel Havana. This long conservatory with views out over the River Walk serves food drenched with pan-Latin influences, plus a dollop of good old Texan flavor. Taco fans will get a kick out of the huge range of tortas, but the main draw is happy hour. As well as pocketbook-friendly deals on beer, wine, and cocktails, the fried fish taquitos with the chipotle aioli are possibly the best bar snack in town.

River Walk is such a pretty spot, and Ostra takes full advantage of that with its big outdoor dining area with beautiful blue parasols. The focus here at this hotel restaurant is seafood, from a half-dozen east coast oysters to blackened redfish. Look out for expertly filled tuna tacos as an appetizer, or head down during brunch and ask for the breakfast tacos. Eggs, chorizo, avocado and the house salsa in soft, flour tortillas: the perfect weekend pick-me-up.

The Rim off La Cantera Parkway is full of cool places to eat. But taco fans know that the place to go for something really unique is Mash'D.

The origins of the breakfast taco are something of a contentious issue. Many Texan states claim to be the first to offer these morning wonders, including San Antonio. All we know for sure is that San Antonio does some of the best breakfast tacos in the state. This River Walk Italian breaks away from their more Mediterranean fare to offer these filling breakfast treats. Potato, egg, bacon, and cheese, with a hit of Pico de Gallo and a side of chorizo potatoes is all anyone needs to set them up for a great day.

Kerrville
Über das Restaurant
Kerrville might be a bit northwest of San Antonio, but anyone on the hunt for the best tacos around might find themselves up this way. Head to Guadalupe Street and discover this waterfront bistro. Not only does it have stunning views out across the river, but the menu is just as attractive, too. Start any meal with the tuna tacos: the salt and sour combo of soy and lime contrasts perfectly with the creaminess of the avocado. Sublime.

Kerrville
Über das Restaurant
This is a restaurant with real history. The building is a fully restored Kerrville train depot from 1915. With outdoor dining and occasional live music, no one can resist the charms of this beloved restaurant and its flavorful menu. The tilapia in their fish tacos comes crusted with crispy tortilla bits, and matched with cool avocado and a smoky chipotle aioli. There are plenty of fish tacos in San Antonio but these are some of the best.

New Braunfels
Über das Restaurant
This family-style restaurant is in New Braunfels, moments from both the river and the market place. The focus here is on sharing, although that’s by no means mandatory. Nachos, quesadillas, and carnitas can all get split between a few diners, or one person can grab a whole plate for themselves- it’s so good here that it might be hard to share. Especially when La Cosecha does some of the best tacos in San Antonio. Go for shrimp, snapper or barbacoa, and don’t’ forget the side of esquites- a house triumph.
