Paloma Blanca Mexican Restaurant & Catering

Good Tex Mex in an Upscale Setting. Well, I have only eaten here once and had the chicken flautas. The setting was quite nice, but the menus were a little doggy around the edges. The menu itself was rather conventional Tex Mex which was disappointing.in that regard. The dish was well prepared and with generous proportions, especially of the avocado garnish on top. some restaurants serve a portion of about half a teaspoon as if the diner might well be allergic to it. Everything was well seasoned with the sole exception of the chicken breast in the flauta. If is prepared the traditional way by boiling all of the flavor out then shredding it and lightly seasoning it.according to my competent and knowledgeable waitress. Unfortunately, after the light but correctly hot deep frying, it was dry and not of a pleasing texture. Traditionally correct, but palpably lifeless.

The two red sauces (one roasted) were well done but milder than milk of magnesia in term so spice. Obviously to cater to the largely gringo palates that dine here. Must not shock those accustomed to meatloaf!

The margarita were a little dear, but correctly prepared.

I will go back, and hopefully by then the cream cheese stuffed jalapenos will be replaced by something more imaginative.

Staff was extremely friendly, courteous and efficient.…

Previous 1- star Review Not Us!. The previous 1- star review isn't for our restaurant - it is for a completely unrelated restaurant on the Riverwalk - we're a 5-10 minutes north of there in Broadway. We've tried to have it removed but no one at City Search responds...

San Antonio's worst restaurant!!!! Waste of Money!!!. My family and I found the first mexican restaurant without a line and had a total of maybe 5 tables currently seated. The fast seating was impressive and well it was downhill after that. The waiter didn't take a drink order and just assumed that we all wanted water. Once he came back about 20 minutes later we asked for sodas which took another 20 minutes. At about an hour he took the order... The food arrived about an hour later and only half the plates were ready. In fact the guy messed up one of the orders but it was too late to correct. We spent a horrible 2.5 hours there and received terrible service. If you want a crappy meal and a 3 hour wait this is the resturant for you. I wish I could report that this is the only place that offers poor service but it seems if they have a location on the river the food and service are not a priority in San Antonio.…
