“San Antonio is a special place, and I’m honored to have been welcomed with open arms into this community. My El Tigre team and I look forward to serving San Antonio residents for years to come and we can’t wait to get to know all of our new downtown Eastside neighbors, including all the bakers, pastry chefs, and farmers, and producers as we look to source as much as we can locally.” Tatanka Guerrero, El Tigre’s owner, said in a statement.
