As a San Diego local I came searching for deliciously crafted tacos and Velvet taco fit the bill. I ordered a Buffalo chicken taco and a Sweet Chile Shrimp taco. 10/10 on both. I’m bringing my colleague back here with me tomorrow.

One of the best taco spot in San Antonio. They have a variety of different flavors of tacos. My favorite is the Korean fried rice, I highly recommend trying it. The service was fast and efficient despite the busyness.

Not your average taco place, but tacos with a modern twist. So many varieties to choose from (brisket, chicken, steak, fish, shrimp). Atmosphere is pretty relaxing whether your inside or outside. Can’t forget the drinks which I highly recommend (the paloma) is so good.

The food flavors great. They serve tacos and a few sides. The Shrimp & Grits taco was on point for an S&G dish. The chicken & waffle taco is great, but I recommend it with a flour tortilla. They serve a few alcoholic drinks as well. There is seating indoors and outdoors. Outdoor seating is under a large shaded tree along the riverwalk. Food is always fresh, relatively quick, and reasonably priced.

Not your typical taco place! This place is very creative and takes tacos to another level.
