She's "cute" More for a young crowd and not middle age or one with family even though food trucks were in here. I didn't bring my kids but I'm curious to know if we would be able to order from the Thai place ... because they ID before u can come in.. what if we were just to come for food? Anywho. Parking is horrible. We did go for happy hour . Happy Hour from 4-9 everyday besides Sunday . 4 dollar frozen margaritas, a little on the sweet side but the texture is great. Will try some other mixed drinks, I think they use premade mix.

Margarita flight
Amy S.

Get the margarita flight! Super fun and tasty. You get 4 flavors for $13. The mango was our favorite and the blackberry was our least favorite

Came here on a whim when we were out and about exploring. I was excited to try their margarita flights and I have had margarita flights before but usually there's always one or a couple flavors that maybe I end up not liking so much but every flavor on this flight was delicious! The bar staff was also very friendly and helpful with suggestions and the atmosphere was nice and welcoming. It's kind of a small place so I'm glad we went when it wasn't too busy.

Margarita flight!

This is a cute spot on the strip! We went early in the evening and tried a few different drinks! Honestly we went for the margarita flight and it was so good! I didn't see it on the menu, but when I asked for it they knew exactly what I was asking for. It looks like a small bar but it has a pretty big outdoor seating section! They even had a DJ there early! Cute for happy hour with the girls! ‍

Killer Cucumber Cocktail!

El Búho always has at least a couple of food trucks, and they're consistently good. Beer selection and pricing is excellent. I love their $7 cocktails. They put what I *think* is chamoy under the tajin around the rim of their cucumber cocktail (like a margarita), and it's incredible! It's a great place to stop over for food if you've been at other clubs on the St. Mary's strip. Sometimes they have DJs spinning. Try brunch there on Sunday afternoons. There's often a pop-up stand with tacos for $2.50. At least two of them are vegan. Inside, there's a fun mix of music with many Selena songs interspersed. This place was built brand new about a year ago, so there's a nice, cool, clean inside area, and a cool lawn with picnic tables outside.

Abel in action!

I've been to El Buho on a Saturday night once before and had a good time. However, I went this past Saturday night for my second time and I had an absolute blast thanks to the patio's bartender, ABEL! This place plays pop, hip hop, and Latino hits which are sure to get your hips moving. It has a lively indoor area, and a quieter outdoor patio area with picnic tables if you'd like to just have a drink and chat. There are also food trucks ON the premises so you don't even have to leave to grab a bite! There is a bar indoors but there is typically a short line to get a drink unless you can find an opening. Despite this, the patio area has another (less occupied) bar with an awesome bartender by the name of ABEL. This gentleman was funny, witty, and knew how to whip up a good cocktail! He made my girlfriend, and I a Paloma and a Malibu Punch that had us coming back for seconds immediately. In all honesty, we didn't just want a second round of drinks, we wanted to share another laugh with Abel! I believe that the key to any successful bar/restaurant is developing a relationship with the customer through proper and personal service. Abel was more than enough to fulfill that requirement for El Buho. Thank you for the awesome service, and for making our nights, Abel! We'll definitely be coming back.

R&B music all night, no variety provided by the DJ. Mojitos are not even real mojitos. No mint and already mixed drinks.

All pics of food an menu from years prior are inaccurate. They are now partnered with Ghost Town…read morePizza only. BUT the pizza was absolutely phenomenal. Check insta for the menu. When you order a gluten-free, vegan cheese pizza at a bar..... you're ready to accept the bare minimum. But I have to say it was the most delicious pizza I've had in ages. And my regular-pizza-eating bf agreed.... Vegan cheese made ricotta style in house?!?! Would literally return for the pizza alone. All in all, a very fun little metal dive. Tiny indoors area and larger covered patio with mostly picnic bench seating and great classic metal playing. insanely reasonably priced drinks (2 for $12). Will return!!

The first time I came here, I felt right at home. The atmosphere is great, and the beers (or liquid…read moredeaths if that is your jam) are always cold. Punk and heavy metal are always playing both inside and outside the bar. If you're a horror movie fanatic, the TV inside the bar is always playing horror movies. If there is a band scheduled to play that night, pray you get your drink before the inside gets packed because, boy does it get packed! Other than, the bartenders are cool and give good service. The pictures posted are a bit dated but now there is a horror movie novelty shop called House Of Monsters that sits where Robot Monster is and they also sell some pretty cool stuff!

I LOVE this lil spot. Everything I ordered had so much flavor. Even the ranch was special. These…read morefries are probably the best fries I've had in San Antonio. The Gucci Buffalo wings were so juicy and packed full of seasoned flavor. The service slow but that's because everything is made to order and it was definitely worth the wait. They played some of my favorite songs over head. Nice to hear hear old Daft Punk. The lighting at nice is pretty cool with all the pink and purple. I'm definitely going to come back. Street parking only though but worth it.

You know what surprised me!? A friend called me a "foodie" yesterday!? Unfortunately, I may not…read moredeserve that label. Y'all; I'm just tired of it. I'm tired of going to places and being disappointed. I'm tired of paying too much for too little food. I may just stay away from joints having "James Beard" or "Michelin Star" anywhere in the bio. I should say, I loved the vibe. Seems mostly al fresco...and this definitely took me back to my Santa Barbara days. Not sure how well it works in the heat of a San Antonio summer, but we had pleasant outdoor weather yesterday. Plus, my friend and I were catching up after some rough months, and chose to sit outside so we could have a somewhat private conversation. Problem: the music was so damn loud we could barely talk. When we asked staff to turn it town, they did, at least for a few. Seems within ten minutes it was back at its previous decibel level. Even on a packed-house day, there's just no reason for it to be that loud. Call me an old man if ya want. Friend and I both had the burger, which was good. Unfortunately it was expensive and small. My friend paid; I felt almost bad. Don't get me wrong; I'm not writing this place off. I aim to go back and try other things on the menu.
