The red and white table setting the service and even hearing the music playing from outside…..that was our 2nd time there and it won’t be our last. Thank you Asadas GrillMore infoAsadas GrillPrice: Moderate• Mexican• North Central•4.2
- NNoelSan Antonio •64 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoConsistently the best TexMex in New Braunfels. Smoked meats, esp brisket, are a specialty and are always excellent. Elevated chiles rellenos are roasted instead of battered and fried and contain high quality ingredients such as brisket or smoked chicken. Queso, beans (both refried and charro) and margaritas are of superior quality to all others we have tried locally. Highly recommend.More infoDos Rios Mexican Bar & GrillPrice: Moderate• Mexican• New Braunfels•4.5
