Went to attend their 5/1/26 conjunto concert featuring two bands. I got there at 7:30pm only to be…read moretold that the bands wouldn't go on-stage until 11:00pm. Are you kidding me? The DJ was playing conjunto polkas and cumbias but way too loud. And the smoke machine was chocking everyone. He'd play about eight cumbias in a row then about eight polkas in a row -- not a good DJ. And hey, this is South Texas. Everyone loves both conjunto and country but the DJ didn't play any country. I miss Whiskey River. We need a dance hall that plays good country, tejano and conjunto. For this 5/1/26 event, there were so many reserved tables that all other attendees struggled for seating. Until they turn down the volume and play a mix of music, I won't be back. The female bartender that night was very professional and courteous. Good for her. She was the only highlight of the evening.

July 5, 2019 (Friday night) -- Went in early right at 8:00pm when they opened. Note that I'm 66 and…read moremy dance partner is 57, that's why we go so early. The crowd stayed thin until about 9:30pm when it started to increase. By 10:00pm there was a good size crowd. Dancing from 8:00-10:00pm was fun and the dance floor wasn't crowded. But the music wasn't so great. There was no DJ at that time just a playlist that had already been loaded of so-so songs. Although, having a DJ wouldn't have made any difference since I've never been a fan of their DJ. At 10:00pm things changed a lot. If you don't mind seeing a lesbian dry-hump one girl after another on the dance floor as the crowd cheered her on, then Whiskey River (WR) is your place after 10:00pm. Otherwise, forget about it. We stayed until about 10:30pm just so I could see what really happens there after 10:00pm and so I could give you (my review reader) my observations without bias. At least on this night after 10:00pm the music is all New Country and Hip Hop. Would I recommend WR -- yes, if you go from 8:00-10:00pm. After that it's a freak show. The music from 8:00-10:00pm was mostly traditional style country music but some of the songs were radio songs versus dance hall songs. So what's my credentials? Well, I'm a professional mobile DJ and country-western dance instructor. Music and dancing are what I do. But I'm admittedly old, so keep that in mind as you evaluate my review. Going to WR is about what you like, not what I like. If you're a couples-dancer who enjoys a great atmosphere and good dance floor, then WR is your kind of place between 8:00om and 10:00pm. If you're single or a youngish couple who doesn't mind the freak-show aspect of WR, then by all means go and have fun.

That being said, card on file and drinking Corona Extra. Empty beer bottle on the bar for between 15-20 minutes without an offer of another. So I moved to the other bar/grill... we will see how this goes... took like 15 min to get the Garlic bread. Which is pretty freaking good. Sauce is exceptional. Took a bit closing my tab, but we got it handled. A employee told me to go to a different establishment. Hopefully that's a bit better. Food was good, bar staff could use a bit of work.
