San Antonio for work next week

Never been to San Antonio. I'll be staying along the riverwalk.
I'm free all day Monday before beginning work Tuesday morning. What are some must see places, restaurants to grab a bite, and a laid back atmosphere for drinks?
TIA

Pearl Brewery area, specifically the restaurant/pub Southerleigh is one of the highlights of my trip.

Liberty Bar is LEGIT as far as restaurants go. Very cool, eclectic vibe and delicious food.
Peruse the Riverwalk to say you did it, but it is loaded with tourist joints.

Don't forget the Alamo!

LaCantera or TPC. Alamo is small, won't take long to see.

A buddy was mentioning a piano bar that was legit but the name escaped him.

Just returned today from there. But I go all the time.

restaurants to grab a bite
Paesano's on the Riverwalk
Fogo de Chao and/or Chama Gaúcha Brazilian Steakhouse
Dough Pizzera Napoletana
Boudro's
Lupe Tortilla (more known around Houston)
Perry's (also in Dallas, Austin and Houston)
Skip Chris Madrid's. It sucks. Thin, spread out patty with no flavor and it's only cooked one way.

The Alamo is so awesome. You can spend days there just getting lost in the history. They preserved the whole area really nice so it retains it's 1830s feel. Like stepping back in time.
Also, the fine arts museum is great. I spent a lovely couple hours there last year with my daughter. She's disabled so she had no choice in the matter.
Fwiw, Morgan's Wonderland is absolutely wonderful if you have small kids or disabled kids.

Not sure if serious? I actually was in San Antonio this past weekend and did the National Park Service's Mission Trail which has 4 missions that are much better preserved than the Alamo and not so touristy. Mission San Jose was my favorite by far. The Alamo is located in a sketchy area too.

I crossed railroad tracks in San Antonio at 12:30 am on foot. Would not recommend

I didn't remember the Alamo area being sketchy, but wasn't there like a chuck e cheese or something across the street?

Howl At The Moon and yes, great spot. Dueling pianos plus other instruments playing every pub song you ever wanted to sing with 350 of your best friends!
Also, check out Rosarios about a mile from of La Villita.
