In San Antonio the breakfast taco is a daily habit: a warm flour tortilla wrapped around egg and potato, bacon, chorizo, refried beans and cheese, or weekend barbacoa, usually with a cup of salsa on the side. Most taquerías open early and many close by early afternoon.
These picks run from long-standing San Pedro Avenue and Southtown counters to small family spots on the South, East and West sides. Check hours before you go, because many close by early afternoon.
The list below has 6 spots across the city — north (2), south (1), east (1), west (1) and central (1).
