South Texas Ice House, "Texas Cuisine" Products from the Texas Gulf to the Texas Hill Country."The huge snake logo on the outside of an otherwise nondescript building -- created by Bob "Daddy-O" Wade, best known for the oversize boots that front San Antonio's North Star Mall -- is your first hint that this place might be a bit, well, different. Inside, cowboy kitsch, 1950s diner decor, and Mexican folk art mingle, as do workers from the nearby county offices, local movers and shakers, and anyone else looking for terrific food that, like the decor, defies easy categorization.Call it South Texas gourmet. You can really taste the chipotle chilies in the tartar sauce that comes with some of the best crispy oysters this side of the Mason-Dixon Line, and the Gulf fish tacos are gussied up with chili lime aioli and Tabasco jalapeño onions. You get the idea -- lots of spicy dishes."

It’s supposed to be a boil that I ordered but everything has a dry seasoning on the outside of shrimp shells. So once I peel the shrimp the seasoning and flavor is gone. I’m from New Orleans no where close to boil in my opinion. Not bad food just not what I was expecting thank goodness for dipping sauce. We had a large party and service was very good very attentive and patient with us including numerous rowdy kids!!
