Carriqui, San Antonio, Texas

Melanie and I had a great lunch at Carriqui, she the Fried Fish Tacos, me the Brisket Bowl (Monday special). Great food, great service in a nicely restored space. Highly recommend.

From the website:

In the early days of Pearl, which date back to the 1890s, Boehler’s Liberty Saloon served as the watering hole and social center for the brewery’s workers. This storied place saw the neighborhood through times both flush and lean. 
In 1933 when Prohibition ended, folks lined the streets and cheered as delivery trucks rolled out of Pearl Brewery. And the first stop for legal beer was right here.
For nearly 130 years, this building was an anchor of the neighborhood and a hangout for many. As stewards of this iconic place, we strive to deliver an equally special hospitality experience grounded in sincerity and warmth.
