“ I love Mexican food and so far here at SanAntonio Airport it’s one of the best places I have eaten Mexican food, very authentic and the service it’s great, and the margaritas it’s a plus… they even have to go cups… ”
“ The food was delicious. Salsa was really good. They could have been a little more generous with chips. They didn't bring enough for the salsa you have to pay for, and then they charge for another small bowl of chips. When we got our bill, they had put 2 additional $20 meals on our tab. So our bill was twice what it was supposed to be, but they fixed it no problem. ”
“ I ordered a refill of my Diet Coke 2-9-24 and the bottle that my waitress gave me a bottle that expired in June of 2023!!! Only noticed it on the plane or would have had a serious talk with their manager as that is horrible!!! Tasted terrible. Diet Coke chemically changes after expiration and the artificial sweetener breaks down into chemicals that are way worse for you than before it breaks down. Completely unacceptable!!!!!!! Rosario’s located at 9800 Airport Blvd, San Antonio, TX 78216 floor 2 is a good Mexican Restaurant, not particularly great, but the Airport is quite limited in choices. Beef enchiladas were ok, as were the rice and beans. Service was excellent. ”
“ It’s the airport I get it. It’s a little pricy for breakfast tacos. But it was really full of eggs and bacon. This is my second time coming here in four years. Service was always good regardless of time of day. It is consistent. ”
