My wife, 19 year old son and I will be in San Antonio the first of June. We really enjoy eating at local restaurants. Can anyone help us with some of the locally owned restaurants? We will be staying downtown but will have transportation. Alos, what are the best places to shop? Any outlet malls? Also, what are the must things to see and experience - the Alamo, etc. Thanks for your help!

All that you are looking for is on the Riverwalk, shopping and restaurants.

The Alamo is a must, the Riverwalk at night also, and The Grotto.

Here are a few of my favorites: Mi Tierra (Market Square area), Boudro's (Riverwalk), Rosario's (King William area). These are all within 5 minutes of downtown. Shopping=North Star Mall, Shops at La Cantera, outlet malls are in San Marcos (45 minutes north of San Antonio). Experiences include ALL of the missions along the mission trail, River Barge tour (40 minutes), Broadway musical at the Majestic Theater.

Questions?
