The Cove ★ 4.0
The Cove is a quirky Tobin Hill spot that is a restaurant, car wash and laundromat in one, serving fish tacos and grass-fed burgers with craft beer.
Order: Fish tacos, grass-fed burgers and a craft beer.
Tip: Yes, you can do laundry while you eat fish tacos. The patio and live-music nights are the real draw.
The Cherrity Bar ★ 3.9
The Cherrity Bar near downtown's east side pairs cocktails and comfort food with a charitable model, donating from every visit to local causes.
Order: Vegan and comfort-food plates, with a cocktail.
Tip: Proceeds support rotating local charities, so a meal here does double duty. The vegan plates are genuinely good.
Taqueria Datapoint ★ 3.8
Taqueria Datapoint near the South Texas Medical Center is a breakfast-taco staple for hospital workers, with bacon and chorizo tacos that pull a steady line.
Order: Bacon and chorizo breakfast tacos.
Tip: The medical-center crowd hits it hard at breakfast, so go before 7am or after 9. Bacon and chorizo are the picks.
Tacos n Salsa ★ 3.7
Tacos n Salsa on Wurzbach Road is a north-side breakfast-taco counter that leans on crispy bacon and a rotating set of fresh salsas, a reliable everyday.
Order: Crispy-bacon breakfast tacos with fresh salsas.
Tip: The salsas are the differentiator; ask which are spiciest. Crispy bacon tacos are the order.
Maria's Cafe ★ 3.8
Maria's Cafe on Nogalitos is a South Side institution for breakfast tacos and weekend menudo, a plain room that has fed the neighbourhood for decades.
Order: Breakfast tacos and menudo on weekends.
Tip: Weekend menudo is the local hangover cure. Breakfast tacos all week; cash keeps the line moving.
Bakery Lorraine ★ 4.1
Bakery Lorraine grew from a Pearl farmers-market stall into a full cafe and patisserie, with macarons, quiche, and croque monsieur from a bright counter.
Order: Macarons, quiche and a croque monsieur.
Tip: The macarons are the calling card, but the savoury quiche and croque make it a proper lunch stop.
