“Hands down my favorite Tex Mex restaurant in San Antonio. I usually convince my friends visiting from out of town to leave the River Walk one evening and walk over here because it's that good. They have a lot of good vegetarian and vegan options, which is rare for Tex Mex. there is usually a line, but the wait goes by quick with a margarita from the bar.” – Patrick H.

“One of my favorite places with a really great Tex-Mex menu, plenty of vegetarian and vegan options. I love that it's run like a Cantina, my favorite thing on the menu is the Rita Rita which is the avocado margarita. I usually do the Empanada of the day which always changes every day, and I have never had anything that I did not like. Such a super creative concept and occasionally live music. Rooftop seating is the best seat in the house!  Staff always super refreshingly friendly!” – Joseph H.
