    Great spot for grabbing a drink to go on the Riverwalk. The Moscow mule was really good, strong ginger flavor, but the ranch water was just fine.

    Lo Acura is a cool bar under a bridge on the Riverwalk. Fortunately not staffed by trolls they sling premade margs, local beers and funky treats. The highlight of our visit was the Frito Pie which comes in a handy cardboard basket. My main gripe is a lack of transparent pricing as there are none listed on the menu board behind the bar. Prices for beers and food are slightly above average costing around $10 for a domestic tall boy and same for the Frito Pie.

    Really cool bar (especially at night with their neon lights) under one of the bridges on the riverwalk. Great spot to grab a drink and sit and enjoy the riverwalk views or walk around (open containers allowed)! They also have misters to help you cool off on a hot day. They offer touch screen ordering and Cecilia made our drinks super quick! I got the Bad life choices frozen cocktail and it was very different than most frozen drinks I've had. I really liked the watermelon flavor paired with the rose. It was great on a hot day! My husband got a margarita and also enjoyed it.

    I was looking for a quick but authentic meal and I am so glad I stumbled upon Lo Cura. It was delicious, affordable and super cute place tucked under the bridge away from tourists. Service was great too. Summer and Ember were so helpful and walked me through the whole menu of food and made sure my meal and drinks were exactly what I wanted. I will definitely come back!

    Cindy and Ember are absolutely amazing! We did a family vacation and stayed on the riverwalk. We came across this place underneath the bridge right on the water...seriously it's AMAZING. Stop and get a drink, you won't find a better one anywhere on the river and the service is outstanding!!!! Will definitely be back when I'm in Texas again.

    Hesitant to post because I wanna gate keep the BEST place on the Riverwalk! But--I can't! Love love love Lo Cura! Drinks were absolutely the best, literally San Antonio culture in a cactus, or cup . The Frito pie w/ barbacoa is a first and it was the BEST. Cecil the chef....... Super cool dude, very personable and truly enjoys the art of SA cuisine. The bartender Sam--girls girl for sure! She was sooo sweet and made me the best drink ever!!!! The bar is on the river..literally under the bridge on the RIVER!

    Great spot on the river walk! We went on a Friday night and the service was quick! Cindy was super helpful and makes an amazing drink!! I love the colorful menu! We got the fruit cup and the walking al pastor taco and it was sooooo good! My husband loved his spicy cucumber marg and my siesta or spritz was delish! 10/10 will be back!!!

    Mule and Summer Year Round

    My husband and I went here with a couple of friends in the evening to enjoy some drinks next to the riverwalk in downtown San Antonio. The location was a nice area tucked away under the bridge where you can appreciate the passing boat rides. There are bar stools lining the bar area as well as more seating area next to the bar if you prefer a table with chairs to congregate. There are wall fans to help air circulation, given the location. The music was enjoyable which set the mood for vibing with your friends or family. I enjoyed my drink, the Summer Year Round. I added tajin to the rim. It was tasty. I do wish there was more alcohol in the drink though for the price. (I prefer my drinks a little more stout though.) My husband wasn't a fan of the mule. One of our friends had the Coco-A-GoGo and they raved about it, so it must've been fantastic. They enjoyed the dehydrated pineapple slice and the sweetness of the drink. Tip: If you take a boat ride and save your receipt, I saw a sign there at the bar that stated you can a get a 10% discount by presenting it. Our problem was that we used the touchscreen to order and I didn't get my discount (Lol), so I think you need to get more details on how that works.

    What a cute little walk up bar right on the Riverwalk. We stopped here on a hot, humid Texas afternoon for some boozy popsicles! Make sure to visit this on your walk of the river!

    Cassandra G.

    Drinks were super tasty and cold for the hot days! The fans were blowing with the breeze and lots of tourist on river barges passing by!! Happy waves the whole time seeing our wonderful city!! Will come back again to be a friendly tourist!

    Visiting San Antonio this past weekend and found a cool new walk up bar on the Riverwalk. Staff was very friendly, knowledgeable and great recommending cocktails. SHOUTOUT to Cindy, Sam and Cecil, you guys rock! A perfect spot for grabbing a drink and people watch. Located conveniently right next to the Canopy Hilton hotel on the River.

    We stumbled upon this small bar in the riverwalk. Fantastic cocktails and Samantha was a delight to talk to behind the counter. All fresh made ingredients so try the jalepeno cucumber margaritas.

    Fun at LoCura!

Pair that with their handmade thick chips, and you're already winning. Then came the mini tacos: chicken, birria, and barbacoa. The chicken surprised me by being the standout, juicy, tender, and perfectly seasoned. The birria followed right behind with that deep, rich flavor that makes you stop mid‑conversation. The margaritas? Smooth, refreshing, and sneaky enough that you don't realize how strong they are until you stand up. What sealed the deal was the service. The staff was kind, patient, and didn't rush me even though I lost track of time chatting on the phone. They even let me hang out until my Uber pulled up. Tlahco isn't just good, it's amazing. 10/10 experience.

    This place hits the mark on everything when it comes to breakfast…read more We had the standard huevos rancheros and the huevos benitos. Both were solid, especially the huevos benitos. I'm not a big fan of chorizo, but I do seek out unique variations of eggs benedict, and this one fit the bill, so I went for it. The flavor combination was perfect, and I wasn't overwhelmed with chorizo. If you like eggs benny, give this variation a try. You won't be sorry! The refried beans - I know it's silly to review beans, but these were a bit different than the normal ones we find in SA. They had a bit more texture, unlike the overly blended beans we're used to. Chef's Kiss goes out to these beans! The potatoes - we weren't sure what the seasoning was, but we think it was adobo. Whatever the seasoning is, it puts them over the top as far as breakfast potatoes are concerned. Good stuff! Just a couple of notes: We didn't get tortillas with our breakfast. It might have been an oversight, or our meals didn't come with them. Not sure. The service was great, but depending on the server you get, you might need to know some Spanish. I give them 5 solid stars for breakfast.

The hostess was a little drab but as I was walked in to be seated, you could feel the upbeat mood.

From the moment I walked in, I could tell this place was special. The atmosphere is beautiful, upscale, and inviting. The architecture and design throughout the restaurant are absolutely stunning. Even the restrooms were impressive and reflected the same attention to detail found throughout the entire establishment. The food was outstanding. Every dish was beautifully presented and packed with flavor. This isn't your typical restaurant experience--the menu is creative, unique, and offers something different. You can tell a lot of thought goes into both the preparation and presentation of every plate. What really made the experience unforgettable, though, was the customer service. My waitress, Kreizon, was absolutely amazing. She was friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely made me feel welcome throughout my visit. Great service can make a good meal even better, and she definitely elevated the entire experience. The outdoor dining area is also beautiful and creates a relaxing atmosphere that's perfect for enjoying a meal and taking in the surroundings. If you're looking for a restaurant that offers exceptional food, incredible ambiance, unique architecture, and top-notch customer service, Domingo is a must-visit.

Electronic dance music pulsed quietly in the background. The toilets were all individual unisex stalls that were classy, mine had run out of hand towels. Also, the entire restaurant is very dimly lit. I had to use the flashlight on my phone to read the menu, but I have poor eyesight so there's that, but it might explain the quality of the photos I took. The Paloma drink was amazing. It had a great spicy zing in the back of the throat after every sip. Queso was... kinda plain. It might have been better with the add chorizo option. It was very thick. Shrimp cocktail was big, but we started fighting over the shrimp pieces. There was plenty of onion and tomato left over after the batttle. Pollo Asado was a great flavor and the chicken was juicy. Grilled squash that was on the side was good. Chicken enchiladas were good and had freshly sliced jalapeños, which is always a welcome detail. I wasn't able to taste the quesadilla but my daoughter said it was "really good". Fried Chicken sandwich had a great flavor and the bacon was actually pork belly if I'm not mistaken. Sadly there was more batter than chicken. The seasoned fries were delicious and crispy.

Their salsa tray is nice too, they have 4 to select from and you get three in this appetizer, but we ordered the 4th as well and all were pretty nicely done. The verde was amazing and the roasted tomato was great, just not spicy at all. I tried their combo fajitas and was thankful they came out being simply plated, rather than on the blazing hot, sizzling skillet - I don't need the show, just the good eats. The meats were decent, the beans were amazing. The tortillas were just ok, as I felt like they were way too thick. They offered corn tortillas too, but I'm in Texas, so you get flour, not corn. Save room for dessert, they have amazing churros! Overall, this was a decent visit. Service was nice too. I'd recommend stopping in.

It was delicious! The concha was soft, buttery and flaky, with just the right sweetness. We took home the majority of it and it stayed nice and soft instead of turning hard like so many others. We decided to try several appetizers to go along with our concha to get a wider taste of their food than we would by just ordering a couple entrees. Let me tell you, this was a great idea! We ordered the Tosti-Ceviche Verde, Panela Asado, Mexican Street Corn, and their Spicy Bean Dip. The Ceviche Verde was excellent, the freshness of the fish and shrimp was wonderful with the chipotle mayo and avocado. We chose to have it on the salsa Verde Tostitos and it was all great combination. The Panelo Asado was a completely new dish for us and was extremely good with a savory flavor from the salsa Tlaquepaque that mixed well with the Panela cheese. Their tortillas though not made in house, are made for them and taste like mom made them. The Mexican Street Corn was great and had the perfect bit of char taste from the corn. It was creamy and flavorful, we did think it could use just a tad more lime juice though. The Spicy Bean Dip was very good. You can't go wrong with Oaxaca, Chorizo, and pieces of pork mixed with some mildly spicy beans. Our server was fantastic. She had great recommendations for us, and was quick with checking on our drinks and generally helping us throughout our dinner. The food was prepared quickly, was hot, tasteful and refreshing. We definitely will be going back, and recommend Pan Fila to all of you.
