The 14 Essential San Antonio Restaurants

"It’s easy to drive by this unassuming Edison neighborhood sushi spot without thinking twice, but Niki’s has stood the test of time as a San Antonio staple of Japanese fare since 1970. Family-owned and operated for over 50 years, Niki’s menu offers a wide variety of maki, sashimi, and nigiri sushi, along with a range of dishes like crispy pork katsudon and oh-so-slurpable yakisoba noodles. Takeout orders can be placed over the phone or in person; there are indoor dine-in services with standard table or sushi bar seating as well as tatami-style floor seating options." - Polly Anna Rocha, Ben Gonzalez
