The 14 Essential San Antonio Restaurants

"The casual Dellview restaurant offers a speedy diner experience with a streamlined menu. This taco pit stop grew from a taco stand and serves one thing: Jalisco-style street tacos stuffed with a selection of meats including al pastor, brisket, and lengua on corn tortillas. The counter-service indoor dining room is open until midnight every night, and until very early morning on weekends, making it a popular spot for late-night taco cravings." - Polly Anna Rocha, Ben Gonzalez

An Illustrated Guide to San Antonio’s Most Important Taco Styles | Eater Austin

"When I want al pastor from a taqueria rather than a truck, I go to Taquitos West Avenue, where they famously offer al pastor Thursday through Sunday; the tacos come as the classic trompo-sliced pork served with onions, cilantro, and lime." - Polly Anna Rocha

Late‑night, Mexico City‑style mini tacos off the trompo and plancha, with suadero, tripas, and al pastor. Regularly praised by the San Antonio Express‑News for value, vibe, and a pure street‑taquería experience.

Realllllllllly solid street tacos. The salsa are really nice too. The red is enough to warm your mouth without destroying taste. The verde (tomatillo?) is more mild but I always like the tanginess. The set up is a wee bit weird. No personal menus are given but street tacos are fairly basic in general. Pick your meat, tortilla (the corn are nicely cooked and not crumbly), and veggies. A person will approach you while in line asking what drink you'd like and if its to go or there. Once you place your order at the window for your tacos they ask that same question. If its to go you go to the pay line, if its for there you are taken to a seat. It can be confusing if you are socially awkward like myself 😂. I would absolutely come back. Super tasty.

Attentive service even for non spanish speakers, DELICIOUS food and AMAZING prices. 10/10 will come back. Nothing else to be said. This is a classic for sure. Was busy and has an honor system. Brisket tacos were my favorite.

Best tacos in San Antonio! 100 % most Flavorful tacos! By far the Bistek tacos the best of the bunch. We all liked the green salsa over the red, not too spicy. Excellent variety. You line up to order, get the tacos and enjoy! There was always a line (noon) so a better planning or setting could’ve helped, as the line is literally between the chairs and tables. Metal round seats are not comfortable. But honestly the tacos are worth it! Must try!

So yummy and so unique! Very fast paced so be ready when you get to order. They don’t care about what type of tacos you get, just the number so — in full honesty — count the number of tacos you get vs. order. We ordered 10 but got 8 — so make sure you order correctly. The place is overwhelmingly clean and very friendly staff! Cheers to this San Antonio Establishment — heartbeat of the city!

We found Taquitos West Avenue on a best-of-San Antonio Reddit post, and it lived up to, maybe even exceeded, the hype! Rolled in around 3pm on a Thursday and didn't wait long. You order first, get seats, then pay on your way out (option to order more from the table). We started with 3 suadero (brisket), 3 al pastor, 1 cabeza and 1 tripas. The al pastor and tripas were our favorites, and we ordered 2 more each after. We've had street tacos in LA and San Diego, but the flavor and meat to tortilla ratio on Taquitos' tacos was rhe best. 12 tacos and a soda between two people came out to 30.26$. The staff were so friendly and helpful. There's some parking around the building; people are in and out pretty fast. Wish we had an extra day in SA just to have another meal here!

What a great place! We are from Wisconsin and these mini tacos did not disappoint. Authentic! Chorizo/cilantro, steak/onion/cilantro

No complaints! The meat was tender and flavored well. The salsas were tasty. The service was normal and nothing special. The restaurant was clean for the most part and had a good amount of seating. I would definitely come back here whenever I’m in San Antonio and craving some solid tacos!
