This location is one of the spots on the river walk. Went during a low peek time of day. The General Manager came out and greeted our table and treated us exceptionally. We had a variety of meals at the table. I enjoyed the lobster tacos most. Could’ve had a bit more bold flavors with the other meals that would’ve help elevate the dishes.

The food here is delightfully uncomplicated yet incredibly flavorful and delicious. What truly sets them apart is their unique approach to crafting guacamole. They prepare it fresh right at your table, incorporating all the ingredients after consulting us. It was my first encounter with this method, and I must say it was quite impressive.

2nd visit to this restaurant. While the food and drinks were still delicious, it would have been great if our server was more engaging in the process of preparing the guacamole for us. We expected a similar experience as our first visit where our waitress explained what she was doing step by step, while engaging in conversation with us. It was a great experience! Hopefully this waiter will take note of this and improve on his performance. That’d be great for repeat business and certainly for him. Cheers

~20min wait time for Saturday afternoon. Decent vibes inside. Southern Paella was delicious (no fishy taste) and worth the price. The guac was very good and made with fresh ingredients right in front of us. Our server Kelley was very friendly, explained things patiently, and made it a good time for our small group of friends visiting San Antonio 🙂

Amazing food and staff! Chuey our bartender was amazing, and explained all the food options and then made us probably what I would rate as the best strawberry margarita I’ve ever had! Will definitely be our spot for food and drinks on our next trip to San Antonio.

Popped in for lunch during a conference. Service was fast and friendly. The food was pretty good, but the margaritas looked fantastic! I’ll be back to try those next time 🙂

Kelley was an amazing waitress, very knowledgeable of the menu, gave us great recommendations for food and drinks! She is too notch! If you come here ask for her to be your waitress, you will not be disappointed. She makes the best table side guacamole. Food was amazing and the atmosphere was priceless.

Right at the Riverwalk after the boat tours. We went there on a recommendation of our hotel…. food was good. The server didn’t use a pad and did mess up the drink order… Was eventually fixed. Wasn’t as attentive as he could have been, but was remedied by the guy busing the tables. He apologized at the end saying we came in right as it got busy… overall good experience, nice mix of music from 70-80. nice portion sizes …. left full

You’re Worth it
I’m unsure why patrons rated this place exceptionally high. Maybe for the atmosphere or perhaps the service. It is right on the famous riverwalk itself. Read and you’ll rate it yourself

The food was just okay, at least what we ordered. I did really like the salsa! The chicken quesadillas just got a little soggy and my husband got chicken enchiladas, but there wasn’t much chicken in them. We went two nights in a row, no wait the first night and about 20 minutes the second night. Both of our servers were great! We didn’t have drinks there so I can’t speak about those!
