    Located up above "The County Line" overlooking the River Walk. Had the Moscow Mule very refreshing on a hot day! Chicken Tinga Taco's are highly recommended. Wait Staff excellent, friendly, and fast.

    I've been here twice and the servers have been very friendly. I had some kind of brisket tacos and it was soooo good. Recommended! Not as expensive as other places on Riverwalk

    Delicious deviled eggs and the Deluxe brisket and black bean chili has lots of flavor. Foursquare special got us free queso too! Great food and drinks all around. One of the better beer selections

    One of the best Tex Mex restaurants in San Antonio. Loved the Queso, had the smoked brisket, black bean, with lime cilantro rice. Delish!!! Highly recommend!!!

    They are in no way stingy the amount of Queso & Margarita for the price is amazing! Best deal on the riverwalk! Open late for Drunchies too 😉

    Great food. I expected touristy bad food but experienced some unique Mexican tacos with more robust flavored than I have experienced even where I live in San Diego.

    The queso is good, but their namesake burrito is awesome. If I lived in San Antonio I'd eat here a lot.

    Don't be afraid of the guacamole served in an ice cream dish. Mango Pork Carnitas, do it.

    The food was pretty decent and had great flavor. The waiter was a tad slow on the service aspect and the bar staff needs to learn how to make a Mojito. Hope next time will be better.

    Not a single thing I ordered tasted good. I had guacamole, a frozen margarita, and Baja tacos. All of them were a HUGE disappointment.

    Surprisingly solid food, terrible service, somewhat pricy for Mexican "street food." That being said, the food would make me come back.

    Food is not bad. Very limited menu. Expensive drinks. Watch out for the waiters they will try to add items to your bill and also try to short change you on the bill
