Chamoy City Limits turns the traditional raspa into a maximalist treat, piling shaved ice with chamoy, fresh fruit, and gummies, a San Antonio shaved-ice.
Try: Loaded chamoy raspas
Tip: Order a fully loaded raspa with chamoy and gummies; it is built to over-deliver. Best on a brutal Texas afternoon.
Las Nieves is a established fruit-cup and raspa stand on West Hildebrand, serving cold fruit cups loaded with lime, tajin, and chamoy plus elotes and raspas.
Try: Fruit cups, raspas and elotes
Tip: Get a fruit cup with extra chamoy and tajin, or an elote in a cup. A cheap, cooling stop on a hot day.
Fruteria Los Trejo on Eckhert Road serves mangonadas, fruit cups, and shaved ice in the Mexican fruteria tradition, a refreshing snack stop that has grown.
Try: Mangonadas and fruit cups
Tip: The mangonada, a mango-and-chamoy frozen treat, is the order. A reliable refresher on the northwest side.
Pollos Asados Los Norteños on the east side grills whole chickens over mesquite; order one with grilled onions and tortillas, and go early as the queue grows.
Try: Mesquite-grilled pollo asado
Tip: Order a whole chicken with the grilled onions and tortillas. The queue can be long; go early on weekends.
Tellez Tamales & Barbacoa is a West Side weekend ritual, where you buy barbacoa by the pound and tamales by the dozen to take home, paired with a Big Red.
Try: Weekend barbacoa and tamales
Tip: Go on a weekend morning for the barbacoa by the pound; buy tamales by the dozen to take home. Pair with Big Red.
Ray's Drive Inn on the West Side has claimed the original puffy taco since 1956, the deep-fried puffed-masa shell that San Antonio gave the world.
Try: The original puffy taco
Tip: The puffy taco is the only order; eat it fast while the shell is crisp. A West Side institution, not a tourist stop.
