Best Restaurants in San Antonio

San Antonio is a Tex-Mex city at its core — the puffy taco was invented here, the breakfast taco culture rivals Austin’s, and the Mexican food traditions run deeper than almost any city north of the border. But the Pearl District has turned San Antonio into a serious contemporary food destination too.

Tex-Mex & Mexican

Mi Tierra Café & Bakery (Market Square) — Open 24 hours, 365 days a year since 1941. Festive decorations year-round, mariachi bands, and a bakery case that stretches forever. The enchiladas and breakfast plates are classics. The atmosphere alone is worth the visit.

Free Things to Do in San Antonio

San Antonio is one of the best-value major cities in America for visitors — the two most famous attractions (the Alamo and the River Walk) are both free, and there’s a surprising amount of no-cost culture and nature to explore.

The Big Two (Free)

The Alamo — The most visited attraction in Texas. The 1836 battle site where 200 Texan defenders held the former mission against thousands of Mexican soldiers. The church and grounds are free to visit. Guided tours are available for a fee but the self-guided experience is excellent.

Things to Do in San Antonio, Texas

San Antonio is one of the most visited cities in Texas — and the River Walk is why. A network of stone pathways along the San Antonio River, one level below the streets, lined with restaurants, bars, and hotels. It’s the heart of the city and one of the most unique urban spaces in America.

The River Walk

The main loop — About 2.5 miles of walkways, bridges, and river-level dining. Boat tours run the length of the loop narrating the history and architecture. Most restaurants have river-level patios.
