SAN ANTONIO (September 2, 2025) — National Guacamole Day is right around the corner on September 16, and Ácenar Mexican Restaurant, a staple of the San Antonio River Walk for over 20 years, is inviting the community to celebrate with its signature tableside guacamole.

For two decades, Ácenar has earned a reputation for serving bold Mexican flavors with a contemporary twist, and its guacamole remains one of the restaurant’s most beloved attractions. Prepared tableside, the appetizer combines fresh avocado, cilantro, tomato, onion, and a squeeze of lime, served with crispy tortilla chips. The interactive preparation not only delivers fresh flavor but also offers guests a unique dining experience as they watch the guacamole come together right before their eyes.

Ácenar’s happy hour menu complements the celebration with a variety of savory bites and refreshing cocktails. Guests can enjoy favorites such as bean and cheese nachos, jicama shrimp tacos, and cucumber jalapeño margaritas. All appetizers are priced at $8.50, while cocktails—including mojitos and signature margaritas—are just $7.50 during happy hour.

Happy hour runs Sunday through Thursday from 2 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. and nightly from 9 p.m. until close, giving San Antonio locals and visitors multiple chances to indulge in this River Walk experience. On National Guacamole Day, Ácenar invites everyone to join the celebration with guacamole and chips for just $8.50 during happy hour.

As one of the only River Walk restaurants offering tableside guacamole, Ácenar promises not only a delicious appetizer but also a memorable experience to mark the day.
