San Antonio
This enormous, weird, and very wonderful place is not just a restaurant and bar – it’s also a laundromat and car wash. Casual things may be, with no table service, and the menu consists of tacos, burgers, salads and the like, but the food is top-notch, made with organic meat and produce and, above all, love. Live bands play most nights
There's even a playground for the kids, so you can reward them for all their hard work washing your car.
