I lived in SATX for 2 years. Although, I didn't go out much, there were some places I visited and enjoyed.

Food

I tried several food places and didn't like most of them unfortunately, so I was put off on trying more and mainly ate at home. But these were the few places I really enjoyed.

I'm honestly mad that I didn't find this place sooner. I met the owner and she was super sweet and seems to love what she does. The food is made with fresh ingredients and all homemade/scratch made. The Chicken & Waffles is delish! Crispy chicken...

Better than Chipotle IMO. Burritos are HUGE and if you sign up with their app, you get a free burrito on your birthday and half birthday!

I am no taco expert and not sure how authentic this place is but it is good! & will satisfy my taco cravings for sure. I enjoyed their birria tacos and birria ramen.

Many things to learn & explore, we didn’t get to see it all and we spent a good few hours here. Love the little water area for the kids to play and cool off. They also have events, we went during their water event, and they had a lot of activitie...tiktok.com/t/ZT22dWK5X

Has three large public parks in the heart of downtown which also has splash pads. Because it’s in downtown, they do get quite busy & packed! Best to go in the morning. The kids absolutely loved the trampoline type slide at Yanaguana Park.

Quite a drive but worth it! There’s a ton of attractions, photo ops, playground, sand pits, lots of grassy areas, food/beverage trucks, berry picking, flower picking, etc.

I didn't explore too much of the riverwalk because it reminds me of the strip in Vegas. It's the tourist spot so it's always busy and I don't like crowds but it's not bad if you catch it on a good day. Lots of sights to see, historic monuments, resta... rent some scooters, take a boat tour, etc.

I think this is the perfect indoor playground for kids under 10. They have a section to play soccer, a section under the playground to ride mini cars, a dance room, and I like that they have the toddler section completely separate. (Although, older k...

A cute little, veteran owned indoor playground. Although, it's geared toward kids on the spectrum, they have open play time for others.

My sis-in-law rented a condo here for the weekend and we came to stay with her for a day, and it was such a beautiful resort. Corpus Christi, just a 2-hr drive from San Antonio. This condo resort has a private boardwalk access to the beach just a 5 m...
