    Fajita Dinner Plate
    Todd K.

    Food was good and fast service. Service here is excellent. So very full and happy. Would go again when we're here.

    Fajita taco plate

    Food is always good.The service is always great, and the atmosphere is nice.. We always come about once a month

    Chips and salsa.
    Christopher M.

    My husband and I wanted dinner and we went here with a friend from out of town, it was great! We decided to try it again just us. And it did not disappoint, large group was waiting for a table and since it was just my husband and I, we were able to get sat immediately. Our service Marissa was helpful and answered our questions promptly. Greeting us like we were her regulars who she saw weekly and giving us her experience. Chips and salsa were destroyed. Two Bowls of chips and two bowls of salsa. Husband ordered a Mexican dinner and he enjoyed it. Enchilada taco plate (no picture sorry). I ordered the grilled taco platter and it was beautiful. Marissa added a sauce that was perfect to dip the tacos in. And her suggestion of extra tortillas were perfect for when the tacos fell apart because I'm a messy eater. Chipotle sauce. Just (chefs kiss). When you come here, in our experience, the food is delivered quickly after you order it. This place appears to be perfect for any size group. A nice bar and large seating area. The decor is traditional Mexican restaurant. Everything was great and we will be attending this place again.

    One chicken and one beef enchilada!!

    Delicious! We go weekly! Their chicken fried chicken is the best! I also love their stuffed burrito and the chicken enchiladas!! Plus they have yummy Dr. Pepper!!

    Chicken Fried Steak with Queso and pico
    Kaylie F.

    Perfect place to fill your belly after a long day of water activities in the Texas heat! The margaritas are PEREFECT. Everything you're looking for in a frozen margarita. Or if you choose, get a huge mug of draft beer to wash down your chips. Now I'm not one to get food that isn't the type of cuisine of the restaurant, however, my husband tested the chicken fried steak topped with Queso and pico, and both of us agree, it's the best chicken fried steak we've ever had. And that's saying a lot coming from two home-grown Texans. The batter is so perfectly light and crispy, steak tender, and the jalepenos on top add the perfect kick. My quesadillas and enchilada were perfectly satisfying, and overall, we left with me complaining I ate too much. When in New Braunfels, eat at Adobe Cafe.

    Beef Chimichanga
    Toni S.

    So we were in the neighborhood so we had to stop and get my steak fajita quesadilla and hubby got the beef chimichanga this time. Well he said the beef was better than the chicken! He loved it. The only way they can improve our meals is to upgrade the chips and salsa. The chips were a little stale today. We love the drive through service for our to go orders.

    Steak quesadilla- so very good!!!!  Full order is two layers, there is 6 pieces

(we live in san antonio) but... the experience this time was just ok, not fantastic. despite hubbie making reservations 3 weeks in advance, and restaurant knowing it was a celebratory occasion, we were seated at the very first table - which faces the entrance. awkward location. we pretty much ordered same meal as last time. mexican shrimp cocktail - sauce was very thick in an off putting way, but shrimp was fresh and nicely chilled. hubbie got shrimp & oysters with fries. he's not one to complain much, but he said all were a bit greasy & not as crispy as he'd like. i had shrimp, scallops & broccolini. plate came with not very well prepared broccoli - with no mention from server before or upon arrival of switch. how can broccoli be both under & over at same time? unsure, but parts were very hard and others too soft, so it went mostly uneaten. i would have asked for something else if id known they didnt have broccolini. scallops & shrimp were well prepared, but light, velvety sauce from last time was replaced with slightly "gloopy" and a bit greasy sauce, didnt look or taste very appealing. brussel sprouts were drenched in some type of mayo sauce that was not mentioned on the menu. so "crispy" brussel sprouts were soggy. SO... how much of this experience was on us? we didnt complain, we didnt send back, but we would have had to send EVERYTHING back and this was our anniversary. we are not that picky that every dish needs to be perfectly prepared to our liking. but for is to encounter a problem with every dish? maybe just a bad night. but i dont feel like we received the upscale experience we paid for. only one thing was as fantastic as we remembered - the creme brûlée!

I love the atmosphere of the restaurant, it's got a home like feel. The staff always treats you like family. It's my daughter's birthday and she wanted to float down the river. So that means a trip to Clear Springs. First up a small order of onion rings. They were so good, the crisp outer batter and thick onions. Next up my youngest had the Shrimp Po Boy. It had a nice flavor from lettuce tomatoes and tangy dressing. The shrimp were fried well. My oldest daughter had the Fish Tacos. They were bright and fresh but needed a little more zing. My son had the Combination (fish and fried crawfish)- the crawfish were tasty and had a good batter. My Seafood Grill was amazing. The shrimp brochettes were amazing, loved the grilled catfish. I'm not usually a fan of blackened catfish but this one was good. My wife had the cup of Cajun Gumbo. It wasn't bad but it was chunky and that's not my style. We ended with the Chocolate Cake for dessert since it was my oldest daughter's birthday. It was the perfect end, the pecans added a saltiness that balanced out the richness of the chocolate.
