San Antonio
This cute Mexican diner is a nice little secret. Located in a strip mall near the McNay Art Museum, it would be easy to overlook, but the inside has the feel of a Mexican mercado, with colorful handicrafts right down to the painted furniture. Plus, the food seems a little lighter than most and doesn't leave you wanting a siesta.
