Loading map…
Henry's Puffy Tacos is a San Antonio institution founded in 1978 by Henry Lopez, who is credited with coining the term 'puffy taco' for the deep-fried puffed corn masa shells he helped develop alongside his brothers. The restaurant became so iconic that son Jaime Lopez created the Henry the Puffy Taco mascot, which became the official mascot of the San Antonio Missions minor league baseball team. Henry's has been featured in Texas Monthly, Southern Living, the New York Times, and the Wall Street Journal, cementing its status as a San Antonio culinary landmark.
