Food Scene

The Pearl is all about food, and you won't go wrong at any of the restaurants in this restored brewery. Most fun is to check out the weekend farmer's market--sample tamales and other freshly made delicacies. It's a short drive or a nice long walk along the River to get there.

The best espresso in town. Not much for atmosphere, but the space is bright and quiet and you'll enjoy a perfect espresso drink.

Fantastically fun social scene, especially out on the patio during happy hour or brunch on Sunday (when there's bottomless mimosas and a DJ spinning outside). Come with a group so you can try the greatest number of small plates! Even as a couple we can't help but order 5 or 6 things.

If we had to eat at one place in SA every day, this would be it. Fabulous authentic interior Mexican food. Great for lunch any day, but our favorite is brunch on Saturday (you must get the Chilaquiles, and a side taco).

A lunch or late night favorite in a renovated mansion. Excellent salads and coffee for midday dining in the spacious downstairs. Reverse happy hour every night starting at 10pm--don't miss the small but tasty pizzas on special. And dessert...always get dessert.

We love everything that is ever on the New Orleans-inspired menu. We also love the atmosphere sitting at the bar/open kitchen. We also love the Friday night jazz. Basically, when we have one meal during a stay in SA, we come here.

The Esquire is a cool Riverwalk classic for good drinks, and the first bar we typically recommend to visitors. Head downstairs for a chic speakeasy vibe and even more incredible concoctions.

A great dive in the up-and-coming Dignowity Hill neighborhood, just east of downtown. We especially enjoy the DJ who plays soul records (on Friday nights, I think, but call to check).

Fantastic atmosphere. An oh-so-stylish bar & cafe attached to Hotel Havana, you can sit looking out over the River while you eat a great torta or sip on a perfect margarita. The bar downstairs is also an excellent place for a nightcap.
