Best WLM Reviews
The BEST Tejano club in South Texas, Whiskey Rio. But they hired a Cumbia DJ and only place cumbias.
First time there, last Saturday with a group. Door guy was cool and made us feel welcomed. Bars were a little crowded and not easy to grab a drink. Bartender we had was nice. Definitely will return
DID NOT LIKE THIS PLACE MY DAD WAS THERE AND THEY STARTED HITTING HIM HE HAS A BIG BRUCE ON HIS HEAD AND HE DOENST FEEL GOOD HE DIDNT DO ANYTHING HE WAS ON HIS WAY TO THE RESTROOM AND THEY TOLD HIM HE CANT GO TO THE REDTROOM BCZ IT WAS AÑREADY CLOSING THE PLACE WASNT WVEN NEAR TO CLOSING
Wife and I went last night 1/5/24. Bartenders and all staff were amazing. Great music and huge dance floor. Patrons were exceptionally welcoming! Nice mix of cumbia and tejano music.
Fun place to dance to various genres of Spanish music. There was a smaller sized crowd when I visited but it looks like it was going to get busier later in the night. There was a good variety of songs as well. We had beers while we there and it looked like the beer buckets were a popular choice.
My woman and I I had a great experience, the place was not to crowded and everyone was very welcoming. We were encouraged by those attending to go dance and enjoy ourselves. We did not encounter any rude individuals. I would definitely come back and recommend others come as well.
I was so happy to find a place with a large dance floor. The music was awesome, the bartender was very friendly and so we're all the bouncers. I was worried it might be awkward because I didn't know the steps people were dancing to, but then I met some nice people and kept getting asked to dance. That was cool. I had a great time! Everyone was dressed so nice, which I loved bc I usually feel overdressed at some of the other bars I tried out! Being new to the area and having such a positive experience, I am definitely going to come back again. I hope I get better at dancing to tejano music.
My friend and I decided to go to Whiskey Río to check it out since we have never been there before. We had a couple beers before we went, but we were far from inebriated. When we got to the door there looked to be about three bouncers, waiting outside. As we were walking in the tallest of the group, stopped my friend and told us that he was too drunk to enter the club. He was so clearly not drunk it was ridiculous. I think this was a form of profiling, which really needs to be put into check. I will be making a formal complaint about this issue as we have done nothing wrong and we were not drunk nor causing any problems. When I questioned his decision, he got really angry and got into my face and threatened me physically. If this kind of behavior is condoned by the whiskey, Rios management, then I think this should be public knowledge.. if not, then there needs to be a retraining of the security staff at the establishment.
