Fodor's Expert Review Ácenar

Big and bold contemporary design creates a lively atmosphere for this exciting collaboration by restaurateurs Lisa Wong of Rosario's fame and Pete Selig, known for Biga on the Banks. The nouvelle Tex-Mex spot sits astride a less-traveled section of the River Walk and offers excellent margaritas (many made from exotic ingredients, such as pear cactus), guacamole made table-side, and fresh ceviche. For the main course, move onto fish tacos (grilled or fried) or a host of seasonal fare, all with a fresh, contemporary flair. The outdoor dining area is small, but worth the wait for views of the river. Reservations aren't required, but think about getting them for busy weekends or holiday times.
