Temporary location on Peacock Alley
Sal C.

In SA for a conference and fell asleep early due to jet lag. Looking for a non-chain place serving food after 2 AM and this popped up. Super dope, urban street food set up. Don't let the words "hot dog stand" fool you - these guys take their food seriously. Rolled up right before 3 AM and was greeted with excellent friendly service. Ordered the Wembynaso Jr (bacon wrapped hotdog in a French baguette with sautéed onions, crispy fried onions, and Gruyère cheese sauce) which was made fresh to order. To those complaining about prices - not sure where you're from, but typical late night street dogs in major cities are $10 now and that's for bottom of the barrel prepackaged ingredients sitting on a metal cooking sheet. This is night and day in terms of quality. Really cool ambiance, currently in an alley behind Houston. Plenty of benches and stools to wait and eat at. Loved the ice cold topo chico and coca mexicana. Bonus points for a delicious arroz con leche. Chatted with the owner Rob for a bit on my way out. Super cool guy. Excited for what the future has in store for this place. I'll definitely be back. Support local y'all!

Hot dogs are huge and delicious! Will be coming back

Love that this spot was open late. Perfect for late night munchies. I got the elote dog, and my bf got the pico de gallo dog. Both were amazing!

Best hot dogs in San Antonio. They moved to peacock alley just a block away and thank god I found them. I had the chili dog which was really good. But to me the star of the show was the street dog. Make sure you have a cold drinks because the peppers on it were smoking hot. It burned but in a good way. I think that hot dog may be my go to dog anytime I am in San Antonio. Go check them out!

The FOOD! So good!!! Came for late night eats & snacks! Me and the hubby got hotdogs that were delicious!! Our kids ate elote and they really liked it. I ordered el Perro con Elote, it was so big! I needed a Spoon to eat the elite that fell on my plate! I think they use beef sausage wrapped in bacon not sure but it's soooo good! My husband ordered el Pedro Caliente and he says it was spicy but very good! They're very nice there and helpful. Service was great! Ambiance is very chill. They have a few tables to stand by if you want to eat there or feel free to order to-go. They have bottle drinks as well. They accept cash app, card and cash and I believe Venmo(don't quote me on Venmo). I love that they are open till 3 am! Perfect for when the bars/clubs close go get a very tasty delicious! Oh and it's family friendly! Definitely recommend everyone should come here and have your not so typical hotdog. You wind regret it!!

Apparently El Weinecero is the spot to be late night in SA! Friendly staff and tasty dogs. Give it a try :)

This hot dog stand provided us the perfect meal after a night of partying and drinking not to mention a friendly staff! Their hot dogs are a pretty good size with delicious topping options.

A very good hot dog, fast service and great late night snack after being out downtown. If you like spicy; they have additional hot sauce they can add as well.

While you wait for your Ghost Tour, grab a delicious hotdog.

I wish I would have taken a picture of the hotdogs we got. Very good, juicy, made to order and hot off the grille. Very friendly, professional and clean. Highly recommend. One of the best hotdogs I've had.

I've been all around the US, and I love hot dogs. This is easily the best hot dog I've ever eaten and it's not even close.

We ordered the half chicken ($11), and I was honestly surprised by how juicy and moist it still was inside. The outside had a wonderful smoky charcoal flavor, and the marinade was flavorful all the way through. It also came with rice, corn tortillas, red and green salsa, grilled jalapeño, lime, and grilled onion, so it was a really filling meal for the price. We also tried the Bean Burger ($9.79), which was a fun combination of a beef patty, refried beans, cheese, chipotle sauce, and pico de gallo. I enjoyed it, although I personally would have loved a thicker layer of beans. The green salsa was SO good that I ended up buying an extra container for about $5 to take home. The restaurant itself is very casual and no-frills, with a big charcoal grill that really adds to the atmosphere--you can see and smell the chicken cooking. It feels much more like a local neighborhood spot than a polished tourist restaurant. Service was also very friendly and attentive. Even though we arrived late, we never felt rushed, and our server checked on us several times to make sure we had everything we needed. I would absolutely come back for the chicken and green salsa.

This place was amazing. Every item we ordered was full of flavor and so delicious. The chicken was…read moreseasoned and cooked to perfection. The rice and beans were perfect. The green sauce is my favorite so far of all the pollo asadas places I have tried so far in San Antonio area. The beef fajitas were another favorite. If you're looking for the best pollo asadas in the area; definitely give them a try.

I…read morehad the Mexican meatloaf, which was definitely not something I would normally expect at a Mexican restaurant, but it was unique and wonderful. The chorizo and ranchero sauce really made it stand out. The Mexican street corn on the side might have been even better. That stuff is seriously addicting like crack. I could have eaten a bowl of it by itself. Definitely a place I'd come back to.

Iron Cactus sits right along the River Walk and has a pretty good-sized space. Walking in, I could…read moreimmediately tell they were going for that moody, dimly lit, relaxing atmosphere. Now listen I enjoy a good mood, but this setting went a little past moody. It was DARK dark. They could definitely bump those lights up about two settings and still keep all the ambiance. lol Thankfully, the food and service needed no adjustments. Our waiter Stephen was really nice, attentive and quick throughout our visit. Thanks for taking good care of our table! We tried the paella and steak fajitas, and everything came out nice and hot. Both were enjoyable, but we also need to talk about those spicy mango and watermelon margaritas because the drinks definitely DELIVERED. Flavor was there, and so was the pour. Overall, we had a good experience. Nice River Walk location, hot and tasty food, great drinks and friendly service. Just turn those lights up enough for me to admire the meal before I eat it.
