Ask anyone in the neighborhood where the best place to get breakfast tacos and almost anyone will say it's Eddie's. May sound strange to non-Texans but yes we eat tacos for breakfast and they are fantastic! Bean, bacon, potato and cheese is a favorite of mine but can't ever go wrong with a simple bean and cheese.

One of San Antonio's oldest operating venues, since 1867, is a fantastic spot to enjoy a German beer or if you're lucky, they will be serving up Brats and other German food. If it's too hot to sit outside, make your way to the inside bar.

This is the only non-locally owned small business on the list because it is the only place worth the list. Whataburger is as much a part of Texas as a barbacoa taco and Big Red for breakfast. Now there are many debates on which way to properly order a Whataburger and I know after many late nights in college, I have perfected the Whataburger order: #4 which is a Whataburger with cheese and jalapenos but the secret is in the steps that follow. Make sure to ask for grilled jalapenos, grilled onions, toasted buns and add ketchup along with the standard mustard. I prefer no tomatoes if I am ordering to-go. If strawberry Fanta is an option, you must order it or a sweet tea as a second option.

The only restaurant to make the cut that isn't within a few minutes of Casa Blanca. You can't visit from out state and not have some quality Texas BBQ. 2M is the only BBQ restaurant you need to know about in SA. Make sure to show up early to not miss any items on the menu.

Mixtli has a menu that changes every 45 days that often uses indigenous Mexican ingredients and pre-Hispanic techniques to prepare the food. Often a fixed menu but worth the money and an experience to not be forgotten.

The biggest lesson when it comes to San Antonio restaurants is to never judge the food by the outside. Maria’s focus is definitely in the food and have some very creative breakfast tacos and other items but if you’re craving breakfast tacos drop on in.
