This review is for the chips and salsa.
Let me tell you straight up that they have some of the best chips and salsa in San Antonio! Easily! I couldn't recommend them more.
If a rep for the resort or Cantina, please never change the supplier or way you make them.
Send me a message if you do so I have a chance to set you straight.
Beyond the obviously wonderful chips and salsa, the happy hour margaritas are a steal for $6!

I asked for a mix fajita (beef and chicken).
The chicken was fine but the beef was chewy and of a terrible quality.
The chips were soaked in oil. Unfortunately a terrible experience, worst fajita ever.
This happened on Thursday March 14, 2024 around 8:30 pm.

First off our waitress was amazing.
She was so helpful and accommodating.
The place looks really nice and clean and has a great view.
Their menu is simple and to the point.
Prices aren't too bad.
I'm always a little baffled when Mexican restaurants don't offer complimentary chips and salsa.
They charge $6 here for chips with sides of 3 different salsas.
The salsas were good, especially the green one.
However, the chips are greasy.
They would be good if it weren't for this.
Husband and I both ordered the burrito with shredded chicken.
The burritos aren't bad, but they hardly had any chicken.
I was beaned out after only eating half of the burrito.
They ask if you'd like queso with it but just be aware that they will charge you additional for that.
When we brought the lack of chicken to the waitresses attention they offered to fix things and ended up removing one of the burritos from our ticket and she told us at the beginning when she brought out the chips that if we didn't like them we wouldn't pay for them.
The manager even came over and apologized about the burritos.
The only reason we would go back is for the service and the view.
