69GSstage1 said it is a Tex-Mex restaurant. I wonder if I can find the address using Google maps, find that intersection and see what comes up?

I found the intersection. The image in Google is from April 2011. I can see Texas BBQ, but on one side of it a restaurant called 'Koreana' and on the other side is an image of what looks like a small convenience store. There's an indication of a closed business called K Burger, but I can't see where it is/was.

The name of the Tex-Mex restaurant where Dunkin Donuts used to be escapes me. K Burger used to be where Texas Brisket BBQ is today. The address is 2456 Harry Wurzbach Rd.

The older location has come full circle as it is another BBQ restaurant. The Dunkin Donuts that you mentioned is now a Tex-Mex restaurant.
...Whoaaa!!... really??...I used to stop by there now and then.
There used to be a 24 hour restaurant on Harry Wurzback close to or right accross Fort Sam Houston...really good, also another hang out back in the day. Anyone know if it's still open?

I think they missed T Roosevelt who was in San Antonio twice. Here he is at the Hot Wells Hotel in 1905.
