About

Casa Rio is a classic Tex-Mex spot on the San Antonio River Walk with a long history since 1946. The atmosphere is lively, often featuring mariachi bands and outdoor seating by the river. Vegan diners will find a few vegetarian menu items adaptible to vegan by request, such as vegan fajitas and chalupas, but options are limited and seasoning tends to be mild. Service is generally friendly though sometimes slow, and prices are moderate.
