SAN ANTONIO -- Children's birthday parties can be a blast for kids and adults alike. But there's so many factors to consider.

Some kids like the royal treatment on their birthday and to be crowned a prince or princess. Others love the non-stop action of games or a playground. But maybe you've got a little Einstein who longs to learn, a little Rembrandt who loves art, or a little Jack Hanna who simply can't resist spending time with animals. It can be tough to find the right mixture of fun and attention-spanning entertainment.

And what about food and party favors? Do you prefer to bring your own or do you want a one-stop shop that can provide it all at your beck and call?

We asked you to tell us the best place in San Antonio to throw a child's birthday party, and, wow, did you respond. You nominated the top five locations -- and after thousands of votes we have a winner!

This week Planet Party on Nacogdoches wins for the best place to the city to throw a children's party.

Who makes the best nachos in San Antonio?

SAN ANTONIO – What’s better than a mile-high stack of crunchy, savory nachos with hot cheese oozing over every last zesty bite? Covered in cheese, smothered in jalapeños, or buried in beef or chicken, Nachos are a San Antonio favorite.

It’s been a year since we asked you who makes the best nachos in San Antonio. Last year News 4 San Antonio voters picked Chacho's (specifically the Monster Kong). Will they be able to hold on to their number one ranking?

Nominate your favorite nachos by sending an email to…

bestofsa@woaitv.com

Make sure to include the name of the restaurant and what makes their nachos special.

On Friday we’ll tally up all the nominations and put the top four to a vote. The winner will be crowned BEST OF SAN ANTONIO!

There are some fun party places, but WOAI should not allow the places to pay off for votes or pay to have negative comments removed. That detracts from all your polls. Why not then just sell your award plaques to those places that want them. I vote on my backyard for the best party place. It is safe, fun and has a better variety of activities. I do not have to invite infants to my teen's party, or invite teens to my infant's party.

So let me get this right WOAI, my comments get removed for some reason? I thought this was a public forum. I wasn't abusive to anyone, I was just having conversation. I didn't say derogatory things about anyone like the person with the travolta comments. I don't think anyone should talk bad about someones business. But in the same context I dont' think someone that is up for an award like this should put a long ad in there. A little hey we are the best would be fine. But if you're nominated for this there should be no reason to put a long description of what you do in here. Peopole should already know what you do. Also on the voting, it seems to be incredibly flawed. someone jumps 500 votes in 3 minutes at 1230 am??? seriously. I voted for 3 of the 5 and noticed there was unlimited voting. There should be some limitations as there are programs to auto text etc. I noticed the top 3 had 10000 15000 and now i think over 25000 votes. by the end they'll have more votes then the population of san antonio when these businesses probably haven't had that many people in them ever. These appear to be small businesses, not like chuck e. or incrdible pizza so the award will probably mean alot. And not having a way to limit votes is pretty stupid. In my mind I dont' think the award is worth the paper it'll be written on as it should be a award from people that have actually been there not the owners trying to increase everything so they can put it on a website or something else. Let's see if you let me use my 1st amendment right and leave this comment on there. I'll copy it to repost other places if yall need to delete it. Thanks

If liking a clean environment where my guests feel that their children are free to play safely makes me "stuck up" then I thank you for the compliment.

erinsmomma, you must've had blinders on when you went to fp. I've had 3 parties there and never had issues. I'd much prefer 20ft ceilings and 13,000 sq ft to 8 or 9 ft ceilings and 5 or 6 thousand sq ft. i've been to both and saw the reviews of both and I'd rather go to a 4.5 star compared to a 2.5 star. kids had fun at both places but they should have room to play and make friends.
