Alamo Café

Fodor's Review:

A perennial favorite with locals, the Alamo Café is far from the actual Alamo, but you'll still remember it for its fresh tortillas (made while you watch) and no-frills approach to Mexican dishes. This is a good place to try some puffy tacos with grilled chicken or steak, or dive into a mega combination platter of enchiladas, tamales, and chiles rellenos. It's extremely family-friendly, with a kids' menu that serves up near-adult-sized portions.
