"I pick Leche de Tigre for a stylish night out — a lush patio and a cool, cheffy menu where six different ceviches are prepared in front of you to share, best paired with a tart pisco sour." - David Shortell

"The dining room of this Michelin-recommended Southtown jewel is dominated by a peppy tiger mural — an apt backdrop for the brilliant ingredients at the ceviche bar. There’s even more magic in the sprawling backyard lit by floating fish-shaped lanterns. In addition to seafood, the kitchen also whips up rock-solid renditions of other Peruvian classics, such as a pork belly chaufa and rich lomo saltado." - Brandon Watson
"This Peruvian restaurant in the Lone Star neighborhood has yet to reach its second anniversary but has already snuggled into San Antonio’s fold. The vibrant ceviche is the specialty, but the menu makes room for beefy lomo saltado, tender pulpo, and one hell of a pisco sour. The Nikkei offerings sing the loudest, especially the yellowfin tataki, which is as lively as the tiger mural behind the bar." - Brandon Watson
