A friend and I were downtown coming from brunch, she recommended this super cute Riverwalk bar. Staff amazing! Drinks tasty!

Laura C.

I was looking for a quick but authentic meal and I am so glad I stumbled upon Lo Cura. It was delicious, affordable and super cute place tucked under the bridge away from tourists. Service was great too. Summer and Ember were so helpful and walked me through the whole menu of food and made sure my meal and drinks were exactly what I wanted. I will definitely come back!

Ashley M.

Great spot for grabbing a drink to go on the Riverwalk. The Moscow mule was really good, strong ginger flavor, but the ranch water was just fine.

Jeremy R.

Lo Acura is a cool bar under a bridge on the Riverwalk. Fortunately not staffed by trolls they sling premade margs, local beers and funky treats. The highlight of our visit was the Frito Pie which comes in a handy cardboard basket. My main gripe is a lack of transparent pricing as there are none listed on the menu board behind the bar. Prices for beers and food are slightly above average costing around $10 for a domestic tall boy and same for the Frito Pie.

Really cool bar (especially at night with their neon lights) under one of the bridges on the riverwalk. Great spot to grab a drink and sit and enjoy the riverwalk views or walk around (open containers allowed)! They also have misters to help you cool off on a hot day. They offer touch screen ordering and Cecilia made our drinks super quick! I got the Bad life choices frozen cocktail and it was very different than most frozen drinks I've had. I really liked the watermelon flavor paired with the rose. It was great on a hot day! My husband got a margarita and also enjoyed it.

Spiced cucumber with tajin rim....and a tropical vacation. Sooooo fresh tasting not that mixed crap everywhere else makes you.

Cindy and Ember are absolutely amazing! We did a family vacation and stayed on the riverwalk. We came across this place underneath the bridge right on the water...seriously it's AMAZING. Stop and get a drink, you won't find a better one anywhere on the river and the service is outstanding!!!! Will definitely be back when I'm in Texas again.

Hesitant to post because I wanna gate keep the BEST place on the Riverwalk! But--I can't! Love love love Lo Cura! Drinks were absolutely the best, literally San Antonio culture in a cactus, or cup . The Frito pie w/ barbacoa is a first and it was the BEST. Cecil the chef....... Super cool dude, very personable and truly enjoys the art of SA cuisine. The bartender Sam--girls girl for sure! She was sooo sweet and made me the best drink ever!!!! The bar is on the river..literally under the bridge on the RIVER!

Great spot on the river walk! We went on a Friday night and the service was quick! Cindy was super helpful and makes an amazing drink!! I love the colorful menu! We got the fruit cup and the walking al pastor taco and it was sooooo good! My husband loved his spicy cucumber marg and my siesta or spritz was delish! 10/10 will be back!!!

My husband and I went here with a couple of friends in the evening to enjoy some drinks next to the riverwalk in downtown San Antonio. The location was a nice area tucked away under the bridge where you can appreciate the passing boat rides. There are bar stools lining the bar area as well as more seating area next to the bar if you prefer a table with chairs to congregate. There are wall fans to help air circulation, given the location. The music was enjoyable which set the mood for vibing with your friends or family. I enjoyed my drink, the Summer Year Round. I added tajin to the rim. It was tasty. I do wish there was more alcohol in the drink though for the price. (I prefer my drinks a little more stout though.) My husband wasn't a fan of the mule. One of our friends had the Coco-A-GoGo and they raved about it, so it must've been fantastic. They enjoyed the dehydrated pineapple slice and the sweetness of the drink. Tip: If you take a boat ride and save your receipt, I saw a sign there at the bar that stated you can a get a 10% discount by presenting it. Our problem was that we used the touchscreen to order and I didn't get my discount (Lol), so I think you need to get more details on how that works.

What a cute little walk up bar right on the Riverwalk. We stopped here on a hot, humid Texas afternoon for some boozy popsicles! Make sure to visit this on your walk of the river!

Cassandra G.

Drinks were super tasty and cold for the hot days! The fans were blowing with the breeze and lots of tourist on river barges passing by!! Happy waves the whole time seeing our wonderful city!! Will come back again to be a friendly tourist!

Visiting San Antonio this past weekend and found a cool new walk up bar on the Riverwalk. Staff was very friendly, knowledgeable and great recommending cocktails. SHOUTOUT to Cindy, Sam and Cecil, you guys rock! A perfect spot for grabbing a drink and people watch. Located conveniently right next to the Canopy Hilton hotel on the River.

We stumbled upon this small bar in the riverwalk. Fantastic cocktails and Samantha was a delight to talk to behind the counter. All fresh made ingredients so try the jalepeno cucumber margaritas.

Fun location under N. St. Marys bridge on the Riverwalk. Clever cocktails and N/A beverages and food was freshly prepared. Service was swift and friendly. Adobe BBQ tacos were generous portions. Spicy Margarita actually had a kick to it. Nachos with Queso was also a generous portion. For a place in the 'zona tourista' it is with a stop. read more

So friendly, great location! If you are not familiar with the Riverwalk, you're allowed to walk with alcohol. This was a great pick up spot. But also a great place for a break from the sun. It's located under a bridge. We got walking tacos and a drink. Everything was great. Is it worth the drive?...yes read more

They have kiosk to order from. I felt more comfortable and I had a few questions ordering from a person. I sat at the bar for awhile and never got acknowledged at all. There was no "Hi" or anything. At least three employees were behind the bar, one was a manager. He was telling a bartender how to arrange chairs at the end of The night. They were right in front of me. Unfortunately they missed out on an easy $15 drink order from me. read more

Shrimp cocktail was big, but we started fighting over the shrimp pieces. There was plenty of onion and tomato left over after the batttle. Pollo Asado was a great flavor and the chicken was juicy. Grilled squash that was on the side was good. Chicken enchiladas were good and had freshly sliced jalapeños, which is always a welcome detail. I wasn't able to taste the quesadilla but my daoughter said it was "really good". Fried Chicken sandwich had a great flavor and the bacon was actually pork belly if I'm not mistaken. Sadly there was more batter than chicken. The seasoned fries were delicious and crispy.

It was delicious! The concha was soft, buttery and flaky, with just the right sweetness. We took home the majority of it and it stayed nice and soft instead of turning hard like so many others. We decided to try several appetizers to go along with our concha to get a wider taste of their food than we would by just ordering a couple entrees. Let me tell you, this was a great idea! We ordered the Tosti-Ceviche Verde, Panela Asado, Mexican Street Corn, and their Spicy Bean Dip. The Ceviche Verde was excellent, the freshness of the fish and shrimp was wonderful with the chipotle mayo and avocado. We chose to have it on the salsa Verde Tostitos and it was all great combination. The Panelo Asado was a completely new dish for us and was extremely good with a savory flavor from the salsa Tlaquepaque that mixed well with the Panela cheese. Their tortillas though not made in house, are made for them and taste like mom made them. The Mexican Street Corn was great and had the perfect bit of char taste from the corn. It was creamy and flavorful, we did think it could use just a tad more lime juice though. The Spicy Bean Dip was very good. You can't go wrong with Oaxaca, Chorizo, and pieces of pork mixed with some mildly spicy beans. Our server was fantastic. She had great recommendations for us, and was quick with checking on our drinks and generally helping us throughout our dinner. The food was prepared quickly, was hot, tasteful and refreshing. We definitely will be going back, and recommend Pan Fila to all of you.

Not sure if the Italian side and the cantina side share the same kitchen, but we will remember to come back and try that side as well. If the Italian menu and preparation is as unique as the cantina's, it will be a worthy adventure. For our appetizer we got the cheese dish pictured. I can not recall the name, but the cheese is a cool light cheese served in a warm tomato-based sauce, topped with slices of fresh avocados and chicharones and was served with flour and corn tortillas. Very delicious! As mentioned in the opening...the menu, preparation, and presentation at Panfila is unique. For our entrees my wife got the chile Relleno and I got the Milanese con Mole. The chile Relleno was served in a bowl with just an absolutely fabulous sauce and stuffed and covered with nicely melted cheese. The Milanese con Mole was absolutely decadent! The tender pork was lightly fried and covered in the most delicious mole that I have ever eaten. The chocolate was a little more prominent in the flavor profile than I am used to; and I wouldn't think that I would like that, but it was perfect! I enjoyed every bite and used the extra tortillas from our appetizer to finish off the mole. Highly recommend anything on the menu that incorporates that mole!! Fantastic place!

The stylish, Instagram-worthy atmosphere makes it a great place to meet friends or enjoy a family brunch. The menu features a strong selection of brunch items, but my go-to order is the carajillo with eggs on avocado toast. Everything is consistently fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. After brunch, you can stroll through Hemisfair Park and explore the surrounding downtown area. The walkable, scenic setting makes the experience feel like more than just a meal. If you're looking for great food, drinks, and atmosphere, Box St. All Day is definitely worth a visit.

I love Ramen and this place did not disappoint! Each ramen we tried tasted SO different and very…read moregood. We also order the Bao Bun appetizer (very good!) just make sure to order one per person since it's single serving. I ordered the Tonkotsu Black Ramen subbed bigger noodles - definitely recommend for a more creamy broth don't forget to add extra sauces tho that are on the table! The only thing we orded that we all weren't a big fan of was a drink called something like a kiwi sparkler (with rock candy) and it was very bland. Staff were very kind, and quick!

Love that the staff greet everyone as the enter and also when they leave. Very traditional in thought and modern in design. My food was wonderful and the server at the bar was extremely attentive. Everything had great texture, perfect temperature, and were delicious. The two cocktails I had were sweeter than I prefer, but they were still great. If you haven't been in, I highly recommend. They also have a Birria soup bowl that is phenomenal, I didn't get it this time because I wanted to try something new.

I was genuinely excited for this opening. I've been waiting months and I live right next door. Unfortunately, that excitement quickly turned into complete disappointment. I ordered the Spicy margarita, which was fine at best, but incredibly weak. Then came the real letdown, the esquites. Or at least, what they claim is esquites. It was essentially a $12 bag of Cheetos with a sprinkle of corn if you can even call that corn. It felt like a parody of Mexican street food. I honestly thought the chips were just a garnish, but as I kept digging in, I realized the entire dish was literally just chips. As for the "taco" I ordered there was no taco. Zero tortilla. Just another bag of Tostitos chips with a tiny piece of meat on top. How this even qualifies as food, let alone a taco, is beyond me. In total, I spent $71.44 on what amounted to weak drinks and snacks in a bag. This place feels like a poorly disguised tourist trap, not a legitimate restaurant. I had high hopes and really wanted to make this my regular go-to spot. But after this experience, I honestly don't think I'll ever return. read more
