Primero Cantina

About

This San Antonio spot channels the regional cooking traditions of Mexico with serious intention—expect complex moles built from toasted chiles, fresh seafood preparations that reflect coastal techniques, and family recipes that rotate through Oaxacan, Yucatecan, and Veracruz influences. The mezcal selection matters here, chosen to pair with food rather than merely decorate a back bar, while the taqueria counter moves with the pace of genuine neighborhood demand. It's the kind of place where the kitchen respects both the precision of traditional technique and the casual, unpretentious way Mexicans actually eat.
