KING WILLIAM DISTRICT. Packed houses attest to El Mirador's popularity with locals, and its traditional cuisine ventures beyond the standards to include grilled goat, wild boar, and tongue. Its soups are especially lauded, particularly the much-requested sopa Azteca. Fruit tacos are similarly favored. Sunday brunch draws a crowd, and eager folks come early to stake out a table and leisurely enjoy the bounty. The menu features filling breakfast fare and a handful of even heartier main-course options. |

DOWNTOWN. There are many things that might draw you to Mi Tierra, but the fact that it stays open all day, everyday, might just be a big reason. The cafe offers zesty Mexican food for all sorts of appetites, and service is outstanding. Memorable dining is not something you'd necessarily expect from a 24-hour place, but it's a welcome, pleasant surprise. Along with main-course fare, you'll also find an exceptional collection of baked goods. |

MONTE VISTA. Late risers often take advantage of Rita's, which is known for serving breakfast all day – and not just any run-of-the-mill breakfast. Scrumptious dishes include a much-loved huevos rancheros. Bountiful portions are to be expected, so be forewarned. And don't forget to try the cornbread, either. What a treat! |

Sip |
|
(Restaurants - Breakfast) |
|
160 E Houston St, San Antonio 78205 • 210-222-0149
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Description:
DOWNTOWN. The name of this coffee shop doesn't even hint at one of its main attractions – pastries from Sip's cousin, Restaurant Le Rêve. A rich cherry-almond torte or a slice of double-iced lemon pound cake are indulgent accompaniments to your coffee drink. And while you treat yourself to a macchiato and a slice of fudge, it's likely that people on the street will gaze enviously through the large storefront windows – try not to gloat. If you come for lunch, try a panini or the lobster salad sandwich. |

Make sure to get there early, because lines usually form out the door. |

Zuni Grill |
|
(Restaurants - Breakfast) |
|
223 Losoya St, San Antonio 78205 • 210-227-0864
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Description:
RIVER WALK. As the name indicates, Zuni's cuisine is essentially Mexican with a heaping helping of Southwestern flavors and ideas. Secure a seat on the patio and river-watch as you start with a crab-stuffed pepper dressed with Absolut-laced salsa. Keep your buzz going with pan-fried crab cakes with tequila-pear sauce, and then cap your dinner with Key lime tres leche cake, a citrus twist on a traditional dessert. Breakfast choices are equally inviting: cinnamon buttermilk pancakes or veggie and egg tacos will help you rise and shine. On weekends, a breakfast buffet makes for delicious dining. |
