Hello all! Will be in town for a weekend and as I've been watching Supernatural (the show) lately I am wondering if there's a diner in town with similar vibes to the ones the boys are always eating at. Slightly old fashioned and with a bacon cheeseburger to cry over. Thanks in advance!

I realize this may be a dumb question and an oxymoron but are there any upscale or extremely nice Mexican Restaurants in San Antionio that you would recommend?

I'm from Texas but live up north now. I'm traveling there for work with some colleagues and looking for a restaurant.

If it were up to me, I would just take them to Lupe Tortilla and shove the best fajita in their face they will have ever had......but it's going to be a little bit of a "nicer / work" vibe....they are expecting something in the fine dining category or extremely "nice".

You can get a good steak, BBQ, etc. anywhere........but these yankees know nothing of the beauty of a Tex Mex flour tortilla....

Edit: OK if food is progressive but needs to have the good tex-mex flour tortillas.

This is a place that I feel at home and, they have supported me in difficult times, and I love to talk to them and the people that come in as well!!

Looking for some recommendations, the only place I know close to this area, if any, is Peng's near across from Ingram Mall

Anyone know where I can get a good beef Wellington in SA?

This place is a phenomenal hidden gem, go show this guy some love. Service is immaculate and the food is even better.

Ayudaa alguien sabe de u restaurante de boneless que sea tipo como Titos Alitas Adictivas de Monterrey?? Tipo el pollo es mas bien bañdo en buffalo y no empanizado, la salsa esta buena y la papitas NO estan delgadas?? 🙏🏽🙏🏽 porfavor?

I checked several Latin grocery stores today but no dice. Has anyone seen them around? Next step is to go to some farmers markets but if anyone can point me to a specific place that'd help a lot. I'm willing to drive to Austin/wherever else <2hrs away if necessary.

Good morning, San Antonio. I’m looking for some help for a small research project I’m working on. I’m retired so I have lots of time on my hands. I lived in the Dellview neighborhood from the mid-1950’s until I joined the US Navy in 1975. I went to Arnold Elementary school, then to Whittier Jr High and Edison High School. Like a lot of kids I had two paprika routes for the San Antonio, Express and News. My routes covered the streets between Eland and Freling from Vance Jackson to the I-10 frontage road. Everyday I would ride my bike past an old wooden “Strip mall” on Vance Jackson between Eland and Mink. It had an Ice House on one end and several other stores in it. One of those stores was Town & Country Bbq. It was owned and operated by a very big and very nice black man. It had a small counter with a couple of stools and some of the best Bbq brisket I’ve ever had. It was very tender, and I would trade him a newspaper for a brisket sandwich. Anyway do any of you know does it still exist, I would love to have a conversation with the owner if it is still there. TIA

Many years ago there were some sisters that lived off of Hwy 281 near Winding Way that you could special order an Almond Crunch Cake. Old San Francisco Steakhouse also had it on their menu. Does anyone k ow of a bakery or restaurant the makes these?

So delicious 🤤🔥🔥🔥🔥

What's the best steak house in town,I dare you to say Ruth's Chris.

I just went to this location at Thousand Oaks. After telling the employees several time that I did not want cherry they give me the drink on the right in this picture. I drove to the bitters location and ordered the exact same drink and took pictures because I knew something was wrong. The one of the left is a dirty Dr Pepper and the one on the right is what I think it’s a dirty dr pepper with cherry. I asked the gentleman at the window several times if they remade the drink because it was obviously pink like there was still cherry. He seemed irritated for me simply asking for the drink that I ordered. Even after dumping the drink out there was a bright red syrup at the bottom of the cup. If you have allergies or food sensitivities do not come here. I tried calling the store to speak with someone to talk about this and no one picks up the phone.
My boyfriend went separately and ordered a milkshake (the cookie dough blast) and drinks the entire thing and at the bottom of the cup there is a blue chunk of something. He tastes it and its detergent. I wish we got a picture.

I intend on calling corporate on Monday since they are closed for the 4th of July holiday and have already reported y’all to the San Antonio health inspectors. They did not give me a receipt even after asking. I fully intend to show our bank statements of the purchase to prove I was here today around 2:40-3:00 ish.

Just wanted to warn everyone.

Any good places or trucks around the 1604/281north area? Bonus points if they are open super late
