Reader Submissions Texas Taqueria: Comments: Chuy's Broadway St, behind the quarry San Antonio,TX What a cool website! I just ordered the book. My buddies Sauce and French and I are student pilots for the Air Force in Del Rio, Texas, where there is not a single burrito to be found, here or across the border in Acuna. We're sitting in the flight room one day and the topic of "no burritos in Del Rio" came up. We were done flying by 2:00, so we hopped into Sauce's car and drove to Chuy's in San Antonio (on Broadway St, behind the quarry). I kind of knew it was there but was more familiar with the ones in Austin. I dig their burritos because they are the closest to these excellent ones I used to get in this little taqueria in north Denver, a bad part of town but I can't remember the name of it. Anyway, we drove 2 1/2 hours to SA for burritos that were awesome, and then drove back. We have also ventured up to San Angelo, TX where there are some pretty decent burritos too, at Hidalgo's and at Diego's Burritos. For Texas though, Chuy's is my favorite. These days, when we're done flying jets on Friday we get together and make burritos. Cool site, can't wait for my book to get here! - Dallan Reese [Ed. note: A jet pilot *and* a burrito lover!

Not only does it have the best burritos but it is a unique atmosphere in a college town. If you are ever in College Station, TX then you must try Freebirds.
