Food Scene

This is one of our favorite places to go for Mexican Food. We have been there so many times that we have pretty much tasted the entire menu there. Everything is very good. I like the fajitas and my wife loves the enchiladas, but the salsa and special green dip that comes before your meal is out of this world! We definitely recommend this place. The cost isn't too bad, around $10 - $15 per plate.

A Fantastic local bakery that has some of the best donuts and apple fritters in San Antonio! I recommend getting them to go since their place is small but does have a couple of tables and chairs to sit down at if needed. https://www.facebook.com/pages/River-City-Donuts/117343181618142

Fast Food: Usually I wouldn't say anything about fast food restaurants but the chicken here is really good! They only have 4 combo meals on their menu because that's all they do is lite breaded chicken with crinkle fries and some cain sauce to die for. I mention this one because it's close and cheap.

Can't say enough, this place is soooo much fun! Take your pick of famous restaurants and the type of different foods. Lots of shopping for souvenirs, boat rides, and of course the scenery. Very Romantic at all times but in the winter they roll out lights everywhere and it's so beautiful!
