YEAR IN REVIEW
Here are the dishes San Antonians ordered most in 2025

San Antonians added jalapeños to almost everything in 2025.
Whether feeding a last-minute craving for guacamole or a desperate hankering for caffeine after a night out, San Antonio leaned hard on delivery in 2025. Now, H-E-B’s Favor is revealing what Alamo City locals eat when no one’s watching.
The Texas-based delivery app has released its third annual How Texas Orders In Report, breaking down statewide trends, city-by-city quirks, and some of the more memorable delivery notes logged in 2025.Perhaps unsurprisingly, comfort food reigned across the state, with tacos, burgers, and fries once again dominating the rankings as the top three most ordered foods. Dr Pepper, however, lost its spot as the most ordered beverage to coffee.
Texas also had some clear preferences when it came to eating out. Corn tortillas were favored (no pun intended) over flour, sweet tea won over unsweet (shout out Bill Miller), bone-in wings were preferred over boneless, lagers won over ales, and white wine edged out red — perhaps because drinking Cabernet on a 100-plus degree day is dodgy, at best.
Favor’s report also took a close look at statewide H-E-B Now orders. Although queso was the most frequently ordered dip from restaurants, Texans were obviously whipping up guacamole at home. Tomatoes, avocados, limes, and jalapeños topped the 2025 grocery list, followed by protein-rich foods like cottage cheese and rotisserie chicken. The most-ordered H-E-B brand product? Shocker, it was the bakery butter tortillas.
San Antonio had its own particular ordering habits. The romantic city ordered the most bouquets from H-E-B’s Blooms floral service and added the most jalapeños to meals. Oddly, the 210 ordered seven times more Shirley Temples than any other Texas city.
San Antonio had some peculiar order notes, too. One of the most common notes statewide was “don’t judge,” but one local shopper took that further when they had to order more hair dye midstream.
The other Texas metros were just as quirky:
