Where to Find the Best Restaurants for Alternative Diets – San Antonio Current

5 Points LocalTheres a reason to visit the often over-looked 5 Points area near Elmira and South Flores. Actually, there are several and most can be found inside 5 Points Local, another hit project by Lisa Asvestas of The Cove.

Once the home to the first location of Green Vegetarian Cuisine, 5 Points Local added a communal table, more patio seating and an airy dining room perfect for meetings. Stop in for breakfast for signature granola available with whole milk, almond or coconut, or try a hearty Rise & Shine bowl filled with a seasonal scramble, black beans, arugula and avocado crema.

Lunch and evenings at 5 Points Local mean you can stick to a gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian or Paleo diet with ease. Fresh bowls topped with locally sourced meats and vegetables, all made to order, are whats in store.
