The Botana Grande and the Street Tacos were awesome! The street sauce is delicious and spicy hot. But I give this place a 5+ stars because they allowed us to bring our dog. Outstanding service !!❤️❤️❤️
Try the guacamole . The al pastor burrito is the best with it pineapple green sauce . Ah and ask to sit upstairs. Great view or the Rio
Some people complain just to hear themselves do it. I'm not one of those folks. The enchiladas de pollo con mole was pretty good. It was not as spicy as I like but still very good. Thumbs up!
Rio Rio had me @ jalapeño marg ! Server offered to make one when asked if they had something spicy . Appreciate the great service & that they have veg options - not easy to find on the Riverwalk. Love!
Great enchiladas , beef and chicken tacos . Tortilla soup on a chilly day is the best. Iced down buckets of beer in their Naked Iguana Lounge are a great Riverwalk value!
Look for coupons in all of the visitor pamphlets. Sit outside overlooking the river . Great date place . Very good tacos . Large drink selection and beer on tap .
Berythang...oops! I mean "everything". But I guess REALLY the margaritas are the BEST...click on pic (panoramic)!
Get a table by the river . The chili relano are amazing. And don't forget to take a river cruise . Well worth twice what you pay.
gotta tell you - you could do a lot worse. The margaritas were awesome and we ordered the special for two - it would have easily fed four people and I am a healthy eater . The platter was cooked to per
Margaritas at happy hour are good! Waiter was very good and friendly ! Food ehhh... could use some help.:(
If you wanna eat something big and fast, that is your spot. A bit pricer.. OH well , It is riverwalk area afterall...
The food was fine, but it was nice to sit right on the river .
Riverwalk royalty stop here for the views of the famed path, large portions makes it great for any cozy first date. Read more
Food was fabulous...everything you would expect at a Mexican restaraunt and more...even live music !
Free wifi password is seven 1's! Everybody always forgets lol :-) Christine is so great! Awesome customer service!
Iced-coffe is good. Excellent place all around.
Excellent Skinny Margarita ! All natural ingredients !
Good food ... but have to be careful with the spicy dishes .
I'm pretty sure our waitress is drunk. Table Asked for a quesadilla and she never ordered it. But the marts are good enough to explain why she's drunk
By far, the best Michelada !
Carlo is the best server!! Full of personality and excellent service! Ask for him!
I looked at the tips and thought it may be people who are overly critical, but the food is overpriced for what you get. Save the headache and head for great Mexican food in the mercado
The ducks are pretty sassy. Vegetarian friendly .
Dog Friendly ! Easy to modify the menu too
The salsa is very good. Get the Rita on the rocks with sugar.
Ask for Jose! He's so awesome, we came back 2 nights in a row!
Sitting down and having a beer ???? ???? ???? ????
The food is so delicious! Great prices too.
Don't feed the ducks !! The host will get you!
Gotta try that flan ..... It's awesome stuff.
Turns out their "happy hour " specials were only good at the bar , not upstairs or on the riverwalk - buyer beware
Poor food and drinks. Wouldn't recommend or eat here again. Chips were a bag of tostitos, queso was melted white velveeta. Quesadilla had no flavor. Strawberry daiquiri tastes like ice water.
Typical River Walk dining -- good people watching ; nice selection of over-priced drinks; bland, over-priced Mexican food that'll hook plenty of tourists but attract few local regulars.
The fish tacos were wonderful. The service was not that great and the drinks were over priced
Great food...great service
The fish tacos were wonderful. Service wasn't that great and the drinks were over priced
Food bad. Drinks excellent.
My date and I ate here and he and I were very satisfied
Only thing good here is the drinks...food wasn't great. Scarfed it down because I was that hungry but chips and salsa are an extra $1.99. No free refills. Everything seemed so dirty
All other places have long waits . Quick service and seating here!
The waitress was awful, the food was cold, and the experience was overall terrible. By time the "frozen" margaritas arrived, they were watered down and warm. Do not come to this place!
I'd say bad service but there's no service at all. If you want to sit and watch the river for free, it's good, so long you are not hungry!
Food is really not that great. They did honor thier foursquare coupon which was cool. But they didnt have any of their aguas frescas drinks :(
Enjoy the river because the food is not that great.
Margaritas
This place was home to my absolute worst dining experience ever...hands down. Yes there is no wait but why do you think that is? This place truly is staying open from over flow of other restaurants .
Go to cafe rio down the river ....
Terrible food and service. The strong margaritas make you forget what time it is and what you ordered though....
Try anything with the poblano sauce. It's delicious!
Table 10 seat spence best seat in the house,
Great shrimp tacos, cheese enchiladas, refried beans and save room for Mexican Donuts for dessert! Amazing! - Eriq C.
One word: YUMMY! Even the chips and salsa. It's all delicious. A Tex-Mex lover's dream - Jan Freeman
Sour cream enchiladas are to die for. Fantastic atmosphere, service, and music! Would definitely return. - Val Hang
Beautiful place, the boat tour was great and once we got to know our way around everything was really easy to get to. We want to go back soon - Hope Clontz
Great tourist location with los of opportunity to learn some history. Great photo opportunities here. - Jonesy
with daily drink specials and awesome happy hour deals... and of course my pretty coyote girls, still one of my favorite downtown spots.... love it. - Carlos Palacios Jr.
