5% Cash Back at The Haven Southtown

Two generations of La Familia Torres have proudly owned and operated this landmark Mexican restaurant. Universally considered among (if not THE) best Mexican eatery in San Antonio, Taco Haven is a beloved staple of this city's dining landscape, particularly because it is located in the historic and beautiful Alamo City area. Four decades of tradition, authentic recipes and fresh ingredients account for Taco Haven's enduring popularity. Nevertheless, there is another part to this winning equation, and it's amazing value coupled with the warm hospitality offered by the founder's seven on-the-job children. Jerry, Patricia, Isabel, David, Mark, Tomas and Reggie now operate the restaurant, and they do so with a pride of ownership you can taste in every dish. But let's get down to brass tacks. Just how good is this food ... really? Good enough for Torres Taco Haven to be named "Best Breakfast in Texas" by FOOD NETWORK MAGAZINE. Equally enamored, THE NEW YORK TIMES described Taco Haven as "a big, yet homey restaurant that is packed for weekend breakfast. It was buzzing on a recent Sunday morning, as neighborhood families and a sprinkling of others in the know clamored for the hearty beef soup and the migas (eggs scrambled with tortilla strips)." And finally, while showering kudos on the tacos, an AOL reviewer noted that what also "keeps this taqueria popular are its other offerings: caldo (soup), gorditas and chile con carne. More often than not, you will find huge crowds in the morning for breakfast tacos and at lunchtime for just about everything else on the menu." In short, if you don't love this San Antonio rose, you don't like to eat.
