The food was delicious, everything was fresh and well-prepared. The portions were perfect. Our waiter was very attentive and gave us recommendations for places to visit in San Antonio after asking where we were from. The view of the river was amazing, adding a wonderful touch to the experience. The souvenir shop was well-stocked and had items on sale.

My family and I came here for dinner. We all really enjoyed our meals. It was clean and not too loud. It felt very family friendly in there. It’s in a great spot on the riverwalk so you can get a nice view if you decide to eat outside. We chose to dine in this night to feel the cool AC blowing us on while we ate. My meal was the salmon and shrimp, broccoli and white rice. It was all very fresh and flavorful. My mom had crab stuffed shrimp and her shrimp sauce was sooo good oh my goodness is was delicious. We shared a delicious strawberry shortcake for desert it was very delicious, we devoured that desert in under a minute probably!!! Yum!!!

Food was good. My fries were a bit soggy, but not an issue. Miguel was our waiter & did a great job.

My husband and I had a family date. This was our first time there. We loved it!! The food was so good and the drinks were delicious. I love how you can take home your glass on certain drinks you order. We will definitely be back.

This place is amazing! It’s like you are dropped into a scene in the movie. The wall is full of Forrest Gump memorabilia and the movie is on loop on a big screen TV. Food is delicious and the variety of shrimp is abundant. Bubba was not kidding Make sure to check out the gift shop!

Very friendly staff Had the Jenny's Salmon and Shrimp. Delicious. Shrimp were very juicy and the salmon had a great sear on top yet fell apart easily. Great flavor. Add in the light sauce and a little lemon and its fantastic. Addition of some slightly salted cooked brocoli and white rice and you got yourself a great combo. Too many dishes for me to try but it was great. Recommend

A great location on the Riverwalk. We’ve been to the one in Orlando and had to try this one. Great vibes, strong drinks and excellent food. We had the fried pickles and the regular shrimp and the crab stuffed shrimp . Recommend making reservations as it makes the experience and service better.
