Came here for Culinaria Restaurant Week and ordered the Beef Bourgignon, a dish I'd been wanting to try for years. The RW special was a very good price for a fixed menu and 3 courses. The hors d'oeuvre were great, the soup was barely warm, and the much anticipated beef bourgignon was extremely bland and underwhelming, as well as barely room temperature. The dessert (banana fosters creme brulee) was out of this world fabulous. Service was great as well as the ambiance.

Great food, interesting cocktails, chill vibe. Some free parking, lots of immediate, adjacent paid parking. Started w appetizers, gougères (think brazlian cheese balls), calamari w octupus and lump crab cakes. The bread bites were large and generous. The smokey flavored octupus was cooked to perfection, tasty, not chewy, flavorful and a nice addition to the calamari. Crab cakes were a bit small w only two pieces but rich and well balanced textures w the crunchy squid ink pasta. Those at the table ate the burger and salmon. Presentable, only positive feedback. The mixed grill included beef tenderloin, quail and duck sausage. Delicious! I highly recommend the sides we tried! Roasted cauliflower w curry puree w raisins and almonds, chared serrano creamed spinach, brussel sprouts w hazelnut nougat, swiss cheese and balsamic. Finished the meal with an amaretto cheese cake and little little ice cream sandwiches, perhaps croque glace. The cocktails were well made, well balanced, high quality. Maverick, scotch based excellence. Reeeally enjoyed the spicy mezcal cocktail. Only a couple of minor inconveniences. Didn't have the listed bottle of wine we ordered, ran a dish to the wrong table and had to remake it and the espresso machine was down but had some decent work arounds and managed to make a solid carajillo. Comfortable, stylish, clean, cool music. Would go back, want to try more and would strongly recommend.

The food was delicious and felt well worth the price. The crab cakes had tons of actual crab and adding on the salmon to my pasta dish was a large piece of fish. There was also a large drink menu with wine, beer, cocktails, and mocktails (as well as other non-alcoholic options). I recommend making reservations for peak dinner times on the weekends. With the reservation, we were seated immediately. There is a paid parking lot that is right next to the resturant and was very convenient. There is some street parking that is free, but less convenient.

This place is fantastic. The food was amazing. We started off with the escargot. It was the best I have enjoyed in years This was the best steaks I have had in San Antonio. I am a food snob and the flavor fantastic. My wife got the duroc pork chop. It is amazing as well. The best we have had in a restaurant. This is a must for anyone in the San Antonio area! If I could give this place more than 5 stars, I would!

The food is delicious, especially the ribeye steak with its great taste. The potatoes on the side are fantastic as well. However, I think the only downside is the size of the cocktails compared to their price. They are delicious, don’t get me wrong.
