First edition Census Vintage 2025 · No. 7

San Antonio Weekly Eats.

Monday, August 17, 2026 · San Antonio

Restaurant Weeks was the weekend. Express-News (Sunday) dates Nigerian food-truck Oringo Africana’s first brick-and-mortar to Sept. 5 at the old Dignowity Meats. The most interesting undated room is still (a)mar at the Pearl.

Thin first edition. There is no Eater San Antonio. MySA dining is partly paywalled. Hoodline and Focus On SA carried August openings; several are suburban or chain. Wild Boar Saloon in Southtown had a VIP on Aug. 8 but no public date — left out. Box Street Social’s fourth shop and Mia’s second location are next year, outside the horizon. A Hemisfair “Sunday Brunch Market” and a Mission Marquee market appeared only on aggregator pages and were not used. Mexico Ceaty’s Summer Fiesta was Aug. 7–9, already over.
