Best tacos in Downtown San Antonio
8-inch hand-pressed tortillas, Angus top choice beef, and late-night weekend hours. Al Taco is a quick pickup for downtown workers, residents, and late-night crowds.
Order pickup for DowntownMexican food made the hard way
Downtown San Antonio is full of quick Mexican food, but Al Taco is built for people who notice the difference. We nixtamalize heirloom corn in-house, press tortillas by hand, and cook Angus top choice beef over wood. The 8-inch tortilla is bigger and sturdier than a typical street taco, and our kitchen stays open until 3am on weekends for the late-night crowd.
