Description:
I often hear the question "Where can I eat some Tex-Mex food at a good table by the river?" The answer is that your options are many and few; many bad options and a few passable ones. Of these, my choice would be Casa Rio. When the weather is glorious, few things are more enjoyable than getting a table at the water's edge, ordering a big platter of something spicy, meaty, and crispy, and sipping down a frozen margarita. This place has an excellent location, not as crowded as most, and so long as you stick to the Tex-Mex classics, you'll do fine. Steer clear of the tortilla soup and the tamales (which aren't really a Tex-Mex forte) and go with something like flautas, tacos, or fajitas. Enjoy. This is San Antonio, after all, and you're supposed to do these things.

The food was way over priced for what you get. Even taking into account the atmosphere the food was below average... Not authentic at all. I expected much better! Stay away from this...

Good service/Bad food

We ate here on a Friday night. We sat on the patio. Our server did a nice job, but the food was not very good. I had a bean/cheese burrito-hard to go wrong with-but it was not great....
