San Antonio places to eat?

[tooge]

I'm going to San Antonio for some continuing education this weekend. We will be staying near the river walk area. Any good restaurant suggestions?

And by the way....good luck on the mexican food. I'm spoiled (live in so-cal)....but the mexican food in san antonio was primarily tex-mex (at least, around the riverwalk area).

I was underwhelmed for sure.

I agree. I was really expecting to go down there and be blown away by "real" (whatever that means these days) Mexican food. It was almost all Tex Mex that I saw. Lots of protein X, rice, beans.

Drive to Gruene, eat at the Gristmill, finish the night off at the Gruene Hall.

Absolutely. Green salsa is the best, and the tortillas are top-notch.

Good food.

If this is the only BBQ place on river walk then I agree. It was pretty good. I really liked the pinto beans and rice.

That was the one thing that absolutely kicked ass in SA and stood out about the mexican food there. The homemade tortillas were just amazing. It was like when you get a big old plate of delicious rolls or biscuits and butter at the first of the meal... only they were tortillas.

The best thing about county line is their sides. They serve some mushrooms that are very good.

Yeah - the Riverwalk is pricey real estate. You're not gonna see any authentic Mexican there or anywhere nearby. You have to get in a car and drive to find something like that.

Every time I went to San Antone on bidness, I'd just get in the car and drive NE up to New Braunfels. German food + Texas food = a dandy combo. If you're driving around Texas, drive over to Round Top and eat @ Royer's Round Top Cafe.

I knew a girl in San Antonio. She was fun to eat. Does that help?

Ritas is good. Their salsa is very good. Eat outside...
