Walked by this place while checking out the riverwalk.
Place was in a great location, was packed with customers and we could see people's plates who were eating outside.

food looked pretty good! "The Original" so I assumed it was the original Mexican food restaurant on the river walk.
Turns out that is not the case and the food is absolutely horrible.
Such a waste of money and even worse is to think of all the great Mexican food in San Antonio and this is the place we picked.
Service was really slow, food looked great but tasted bad.
.
.
only good thing is the location on the riverwalk.
Will not go back!

Let’s preface this with what it is.
You’re on the river walk.
I needed beans and avocado for my picky kid.
She loved it lol.
But hard to mess that up.
Oldest kid got tenders.
They’re decent.
Fries bland.
I don’t like cheddar cheese so that made my Alamo plate worse.
It was cold.
Had undercooked ground beef.
The burrito was alright.
Paid $55 for sodas and having my Alamo plate taken off for to red ground beef.
In hindsight sight I should have kept looking for a better Mexican place.

Ok food, slow to come out, ran out of chips, was brought queso, then no replacement chips.
Queso got cold.
Food brought out, wasn't accurate but still edible.
Server was either over worked, had inside and riverside tables (bad assignment) or just wasn't on her game.
Made the experience less enjoyable.
Food could have been prepared with more love or brought out when made.
