I’ve lived in the greater San Antonio area my entire life. I’ve never had good Mexican food downtown. My goto place recently closed when the owner retired. Good luck in your search.
So why would the food suck just because of the area of town it's in? I get the touristy generic spots on the Riverwalk(20 of them) and Mi Tierra. Casa Rio has been there since 1946. It's good. The Original Blanco Cafe is legit too. Isn't La Fonda on Main and Rosario's basically downtown too?

I agree. Good food is where you find it. Location might affect the ambience, but not the food.
Anywhere downtown ain’t much count. The food ain’t worth dealing with all the riff raff and yahoos.
Best tortillas in town hands down, cannot be argued is Alamo Cafe. Period. Favorite among locals, great queso as well!
Someone said jacala’s, that’s a favorite among locals.
I can’t believe I’m this far and haven’t read El Chaparal in Helotes yet. People from SA rant and rave about it, it’s good but I guess when you grow up there it’s not all that special. My favorite Mexican places are the little bitty hole in the walls.
