Things to see in San Antonio besides the riverwalk

A few years ago I was in San Antonio with my wife and some friends and we went to Mi Tierra mexican restaurant. What a Hoot! VERY touristy, but just a lot of fun! Big place, lots of eating areas, each with different decor - and the decor sometimes is eye-wateringly colorful! Wandering Mariachi bands (there were 3 when we were there). They also have a gift shop / bakery / treat section with good stuff to buy - my son fell in love with their hot chocolate that has a hint of cinnamon. It comes in bar form - looks like a candy bar - and you melt chunks in hot milk.

We had a blast, I highly recommend the place. Even if it looks crowded, the wait for seating was short and they seem to be very capable even when very busy.
