Sea Island Shrimp House
Why visit:
Sea Island didn’t become the best seafood restaurant in San Antonio overnight! Our roots in this city date all the way back to 1912, when Tom Anthony opened the iconic Manhattan Café in downtown San Antonio. When Tom’s son, Dan, took over the thriving restaurant, he still had his heart set on opening his own steakhouse. But, Dan had a special talent for preparing exquisite seafood dishes and Manhattan Café regular and old family friend, Henry Reed, convinced him that what San Antonio really needed a good seafood restaurant. In 1965, Dan Anthony, his wife Chrissy, and Henry Reed opened the first Sea Island Shrimp House on Rector St. behind North Star Mall. The restaurant soon became one of the most well-known seafood restaurants in San Antonio. Today, Sea Island has six locations in San Antonio and opened the New Braunfels location in 2016. No other seafood restaurant in South Texas can offer the same high quality, meticulously prepared seafood at such a great value! Ta day,lunch,dinner,night,very cheap,just show up option

And, throughout the years, Roy’s parents, Santos and Aurora Reyes, have been very helpful and supportive with their business ventures. As can be seen, the restaurants are known for being very family-oriented and plan on continuing the same tradition. There are three Pericos locations in San Antonio. They are owned and operated by Roy and Evelyn’s son, Russell Reyes.

Each and every Whataburger® is still made to order. We still use 100% pure beef and serve it on a big, toasted five-inch bun.

B&D Ice House at 1004 South Alamo has been a Southtown institution since 1961. In 2010, owner Bruno D’Zanski who worked and kept bar at B&D for 50 years stopped daily operation. Situated across from Southtown’s The Friendly Spot Ice House, Bruno befriended Friendly Spot Bearded Bossman Steve Newman. Their friendship inspired Steve to reimagine B&D Ice with the same soul that it had operated with for the last 50 years. Steve asked brothers Chef Jason Dady and Jake Dady of Jason Dady Restaurant Group to head down to Southtown and brainstorm for the historic Ice House. Steve, Jake and Jason created a Texas themed BBQ and Draft concept worthy of Bruno’s bar. B&D means “Beard & Dady”, “BBQ & Draft” and so much more to these Two Bros. and the Beard. “ To keep the soul of B&D intact and take this Southtown icon into it’s next 50 years is a privilege. To do it with amazing operators like Jason and Jake is taking B&D to the next level” says Steve Newman, Bearded Bossman (a day,lunch,dinner,night,very cheap,just show up option

Fish City Grill
Why visit:
Friendly Folks Serious Seafood! Let’s start at the beginning. The original neighborhood joint was opened in April of 1994 in Snider Plaza, Dallas. It was not a seafood restaurant, but a coffee bar called Michele’s Coffee Bar and Café. Bill Bayne was a regular breakfast customer at this little coffee shop in Snider Plaza. He thought the place would make a great oyster bar and asked the owner if he would be willing to sell the restaurant. Instead they joined forces and began planning the conversion of Michele’s Coffee Bar into Shell’s Oyster Bar. Shell’s Oyster Bar and Grill opened on November 1, 1995 with a simple menu of shrimp, catfish and oysters. It was an instant hit! Bill and his partner were soon planning to expand the operation and the menu with a second location in Colleyville and a third in the Oak Lawn area of Dallas. With Shells growing so quickly and successfully they began to get noticed. One company that noticed them was Shells out of Florida. Shells insia day,lunch,dinner,night,just show up option

Mangos
Why visit:
MANGOS has been a dream for store owners: Jaime and Susy Perez; since moving from Guadalajara, Mexico into the United States in 1985, they had a vision that some day they would have their own fruit and ice cream shop. They thought of a place where people could cool down from those hot summer afternoons in San Antonio with a traditional raspa, a delicious mangonada or just a plain ice cream bar. A place where people could have a healthy option for their every day lunch menu with a refreshing fruit cup or a savoring corn in a cup, or where families together could enjoy one of those all American favorites like nachos, hot dogs and milk shakes. Today, this dream has come true and we believe in giving you the best. Because of this, we pride ourselves on having fresh, local ingredients every day. We like to think of our food as every day comfort food. You know, the kind your mom would have made (if she were to spoil you every day).a day,lunch,very cheap,just show up option

Food prices were a bit intimidating, but the portions were significant enough to share among a group. The wait staff was attentive and did not rush us through our visit. There's nothing flashy about the place. But the solid food, service and drink offerings would encourage a long, leisurely visit. Impressions: For starters, we ordered beef sweetbreads, which had a slightly crispy exterior but were tender and in no way chewy. Chips and three versions of warm salsa were served. Each salsa had nice flavor and just the right amount of heat. As an entrée, we decided on a combination plate served with cabrito (goat meat) and cha day,lunch,dinner,night,just show up option

Cooking it fresh and just a little healthier---digging down a little further south to serve up the best empanadas in the free world. We figured we better do up some tacos too... something familiar to our friends and family. We start 'em off with fresh handmade corn tortillas, and to kick it up a notch, we cooked up some Tacos al Pastor and the first fish tacos in SA-- drizzled with our "better than..." poblano sauce. People started coming. At first, they thought we had lost our minds because everybody knows SA is the home of Tex Mex, but as more and more folks tried our Alternative, they found they liked it. So now, over 17 years strong, we're proud to be a little part of the local food scene in SA. We are happy you're ready to step outside the box and get some ALT-MEX in you.

The garden was termed the lily pond, and local residents donated bulbs to beautify the area. Exotic plants were provided by the City nursery and the City Public Service Company donated the lighting system. The pavilion was roofed with palm leaves from trees in City parks. The San Antonio Parks Foundation completed infrastructure rehabilitation to the facility, to include walkways, piping, filtration, wall repairs, and pond sealing.

Golden Wok Chinese Restaurant
Why visit:
In 1972, Connie Andrews dreamed of owning her own small Chinese restaurant. It didn’t matter that she was not Asian, had no cooking experience and had never cooked on a Chinese stove before. What she had was determination, persistence, faith and the willingness to work 18-hour days. Her dreams became a reality on September 7, 1972, when her first Golden Wok restaurant opened in San Antonio. After struggling on a shoestring budget for the first two years, Connie’s long days and determination paid off as the restaurant began to gain popularity.

Vida Mia Mexican Cuisine
Why visit:
Reminiscing about our childhood brings back aromas and sounds of our own home, and especially those from that of the kitchen, where our mother spent long hours, first off the smell covered the basic needs of a family of six children, then thanks to her fondness for pastry, she added the sweet touch of home which was personal and unlike any house in the neighborhood. Eating well was to enjoy the natural benefits of the nutrition such as maize, wheat, flour, raw milk, brown sugar, natural bee honey, and the immense variety of fruits and vegetables from our land. The love of cuisine and possessing a good appetite never failed, we managed not only the experience of traditional family recipes, but some of them that were family owned for several generations, such as pork chorizo, a unique beef jerky which is very special and different from that found in the regular market, preserved fruits and desserts for the holidays, but also the boldness to try new recipes and give one’s taste buds,a day,lunch,dinner,night,very cheap,just show up option

Bill Miller Bar-B-Q
Why visit:
In 1950, on a $500 loan from his father, Bill Miller opened a small poultry and egg business. Three years later Bill Miller Bar-B-Q began as a small fried chicken-to-go restaurant. Fried chicken led to hamburgers and then to barbecue. The second restaurant opened in February of 1963. Today there are 69 Bill Miller Bar-B-Q restaurants. From the beginning, Bill Miller Bar-B-Q was a family business. Faye Miller served as a cashier and hostess while raising their four children. The children learned how to work and were raised learning the operations of the business. They worked in the restaurant during the summers and on weekends. When Bill Miller planned a vacation to Europe between Balous Miller's junior and senior years of college, Balous ran the restaurant business that summer and then decided to make Bill Miller Bar-B-Q his career rather than pursuing his plans for teaching school. Bill Miller semi-retired upon Balous' graduation in May of 1966. As his brothers, John and Douglas reca day,lunch,dinner,night,very cheap,just show up option
