    a receipt and a calculator

    DAVID FREDRICK (a security guard) from Texas Veterans Security, deserves to be FIRED tonight and never to return to this location or any other location for that matter. My family and I with three SMALL children came to McDonald's located at 101 Alamo Plaza, San Antonio 78205 to feed the children. With PERMISSION from the McDonald's staff, we began to gather the children at the "managers table" that is ONLY used for the MORNING SHIFT. After we began to feed the CHILDREN, David Fredrick (from security) approached my African American brother and said to his face, "you all have to move, this is reserved for managers only." AFTER my brother shared with him that we were granted permission to sit there he proceeded with "you need to move, you can't read?" At this time David Fredrick proceeded to grab the stroller which still had two small children in it to insist we move. We now felt like the children were in harms way of David Fredrick. Not a second later my sister asked for a manager. After speaking to the managers (Gonzalo & another), they kindly apologized and granted us permission again for us to SIT and STAY where we were sitting because it was only reserved for managers in the morning. After hearing this, David Fredrick STILL insisted to speak, and this time turned to my sister and stated, "WOMEN WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU." With the level of unprofessionalism and racism that David Fredrick showed was an embarrassment to my family. He should be fired immediately and his security license revoked. No guest of Texas or customer of McDonald's should ever have to feel the way we did. We were looked down upon. We were rudely spoken too. And the look of hatred was written and shown all over his face. We will never return to this McDonald's again. A sad and hurtful experience and one that we did not want the children to EVER have to witness or be in the midst of. Our receipts CLEARLY show, we ONLY ordered for the children. Such a disappointing moment to have experienced here today. A representative from Texas V. Security named Angel Rodriquez finally showed up to the McDonald's facility to get the full incident and apologize on behalf of Texas Veterans Security. We thanked Angel for his kind words. We hope Texas V. Security takes this matter serious as things could have escalated as David Fredrick approached and touched the stroller of the children. No family should ever have to feel like they have to protect their children from "SECURITY." The person being paid to protect us. After this the sign, "reserved for managers" was removed.

    The worst Macdonald in the United States of America. Ambiance very dirty the food was ok but the entire store was dirty . The services was awful upstairs there was a Lider staff who was very rude and I was so embarrassed that she was not allowed to come in to the room to see a clean table.

    This McDonald's is located right next to the La Antorcha de la Amistad A sculpture and the building looks really cool. Honestly, I think it's a shame for the building to be used as a McDonald's building.

    My family and I needed a quick, easy place to eat. We weren't expecting much, but we really wanted to go because it was " two stories." This was the worst McDonald's I have ever visited. First of all, this place was disgustingly dirty. Tables have food piled on top of them, corners had dirt and rust, window seals had crumbs and wrappers. A chair had some green substance on it. I literately was gagging. Another problem is that they had a whole section of tables blocked off. This place was filled shoulder to shoulder with people, and there were no tables. The section had booths for big families like mine, but they were blocked off! It is unacceptable to do this sort of thing. One last problem is that they were very understaffed. No tables were cleaned! People walk around looking for tables and none are open. If there is one open, it's filled with food. I do not recommend this McDonald's .

    Of course this rating is on a McDonald's scale, but for their usual restaurants this is pretty unique. Double level, decorated, and friendly and interesting staff.

    While staying in downtown SA we went out for a quick late night bite with our dog. The service was quick thru their electronic ordering kiosk and the staff amazing! The manager was such sweet heart and offered our doggo a whipped cream pup cup! We had a great conversation with him while we waited for our food and then some. Such friendly staff! I appreciate the awesome customer service!

    Spicy McCrispy Meal
    Tara M.

    I ordered through DoorDash. My order arrived hot and fresh at estimated arrival time. Everything in my order was bagged correctly and sealed properly. I order the spicy chicken sandwich with a large fry. I recommend the spicy chicken sandwich if you are a fan of spicy food. It has great flavor and just the right amount of spicy kick from the spicy sauce. I had an overall great experience. I recommend downloading the McDonalds app because it accumulates points everytime you order that you can use towards free food. There are also a variety of deals that are only offered on the app.

    Omg 1st of all why is there only half of my drink in the Damm cup and they have horrible service I asked for a half tea have lemonade they game me half a cup of limeade and they take too long with there food they didn't even give me a straw like wth

    Open section up top.

    Crowded af. They have a whole section on the second story but won't open up. Just doesn't make sense

    Sausage biscuits w/apple slices
    Heather B.

    This busy location runs smoothly with mobile orders and orders placed in store. Tables are generally kept clean. The coffee is good, but the biscuits aren't soft.  A biscuit should be soft when you bite into it.  This doesn't make their biscuits inedible, just not very satisfying.

    I had heard a lot about Whataburger, so since I was flying in late and landed hungry after a…read morelate-night flight, I decided to stop by and give it a try. It happened to be one of the only places open at that hour, which made it a convenient option. The burger and fries were decent, but nothing that really stood out or made me feel like I was missing out all these years. Overall, I'd say it's a pretty average burger spot. One thing that did catch my attention, though, was the customer service. The employee offered additional ingredients and toppings, which was a nice touch and something I don't normally experience at most fast-food restaurants. That extra level of service was appreciated and made the visit a little more memorable. The restaurant was clean, the staff was friendly, and the food came out quickly. While it didn't quite live up to the hype for me, it was a solid late-night meal when I needed one. If you're looking for a quick burger and good service, it's worth a stop. Just don't go in expecting anything life-changing.

    As someone who manages people and production for a living, I rarely leave negative reviews unless…read morethere is a clear breakdown in leadership. Unfortunately, that was exactly the case during our visit to this Whataburger. We placed our order through the Whataburger app at 12:17 a.m. after spending the evening enjoying downtown San Antonio. Despite ordering ahead, we did not receive our food until 1:16 a.m.--nearly an hour later. What made the experience even more frustrating was watching numerous customers who ordered in person after we arrived receive their meals 30 minutes or more before ours. There appeared to be no organized system for handling mobile orders. I want to be clear that this review is not directed at the employees working the counter and kitchen. They remained professional, kept their composure, and worked as quickly as they could under what was obviously a very difficult situation. They deserve credit for maintaining a positive attitude despite being overwhelmed. The responsibility rests with management. This was Friday night in downtown San Antonio, and there was a major concert at the Alamodome. None of this should have been a surprise. A competent management team anticipates predictable surges in business by scheduling appropriately, preparing inventory, and ensuring operational systems can handle increased demand. Instead, it appeared the restaurant was understaffed and unprepared, leaving employees to absorb the frustration of customers. That's not fair to the staff, and it's certainly not acceptable for paying customers. What happened wasn't simply a busy night--it was a failure in planning and leadership. When management prioritizes minimizing labor costs over being adequately prepared for predictable demand, the customer experience inevitably suffers. I hope the ownership reviews what occurred this night. The employees deserve better support, and customers deserve the level of service they expect from one of Texas' most recognizable brands.

    Update to first review below, rating updated from a 3 to a 5 star (drinks & bartender would get 10+…read morestars if we could rate that high): Saturday night: Went back for after dinner drinks at the Downstairs (a "speakeasy" throwback, look up the history of the place to see why). Drinks were AMAZING! Bartender Rob made the best Negroni I've ever had. I asked him to use whatever gin he thought best--result was an artistic smooooooth full-bodied drink. Told him when I was done I'd lick the glass if it wasn't considered so uncouth for a 'mature' lady like myself to do so Hubby's Buffalo Trace bourbon old fashioned was also outstanding. Rob was the bartender last night who did such a great job, and his work was even better tonight. We highly recommend The EsquireTavern for excellent cocktails. We love the long wood bar and high copper ceiling upstairs, but love the intimate speakeasy atmosphere downstairs even more. We'll definitely be back every time we're in San Antonio! First review, Friday night: Drinks were great (Manhattan and Bourbon Old Fashioned). REAL drinks, no complaints at all about those. And the bartenders were very friendly and helpful. Those aspects of the Esquire get 5+ stars from us. But the appetizers were not good, close to inedible. It was about 8:30pm or so, so maybe they were getting ready to close out the kitchen but the chalupitas with chicken tasted like rubber, and no flavor at all. The seafood platter had something in it that was breading with shell inside, but no meat of any kind. We couldn't figure out what it was supposed to be. The shrimp was good and the fish was good but those other things... We'll always love the drinks, the long wooden bar, and the ambiance at the Esquire Tavern, but we'll eat somewhere else and come here for before or after dinner drinks. (See update above to this review for when we returned the next night for after dinner drinks.)

This was also the first Mexican Restaurant that did not offer complimentary chips and salsa/queso to their customers. We did find that rather odd. Overall Casa Rio was ok, but the lack of service and disinterest in their customers really put us off but we really did enjoy the flight of frozen Margaritas.
