Reviews for River City Seafood & Grill in San Antonio, TX

Went in last night at 8:50 and we were told the kitchen was closed; hours are supposed to be until 9:00. I put myself through... college in the restaurant business, and customers should always be served even if it's ten minutes before closing. Just calledand spoke to one of the partners and explained the situation, he was apologetic but that was it. Didn't even offer to buy us anappetizer. Forget this place. Read more

It was good. Could be great. And it can also be excellent. The food wasn't mind blowing. I ordered the Seafood Trio. A lot of... noodles, but where was the Seafood? I know where it was. It was in the aquarium. Read more

Most of our food was really delicious! Spinach artichoke dip served with chips was spicy and fantastic. Complimentary bread was... soft and warm. My jambalaya pasta was super spicy, which I like. My wife's shrimp and rice were really good. The sauteedvegetables were frozen vegetables, so that was a bit disappointing. I don't know if it's always this way, but the service wasvery haphazard. Runners would bring plates out and put them on the table super fast. It was hard to make room for plates it wasso fast. Servers seemed stressed and behind. Overall it seemed like a better front of the house manager would have been helpful.We weren't rushed for our meal, though, which was great. I don't remember the full name of the dessert but it has an Oreo on thebottom and is called something glasé. Its the best dessert EVER!!!! And make sure you have like 4 people because its huge. Wealso felt like everything was a good value and not over priced. Read more

Just on their Louisiana Gumbo I would have given a 5 star rating, except our waitress was so bad I can't do it. My wife and I... had the lunch special Oyster Poor Boy and soup,(Louisiana Gumbo) it was outstanding. The waitress spilled ice tea on my servicedog and never apologized or offered something to dry her off with. Later she argued with me telling me Cajun Chef Hot Sauce isthe same as Louisiana Hot Sauce, the is no comparison. I normally leave a 25% tip, on this occasion I left $1.00 which was toomuch. (I would have left a penny if I had one) Read more
