Definitely recommend checking it out.

The place is a good size with inside and outside seating. They have nice alcove booths that fit a good amount of people. We made reservations for first Sunday brunch. Currently they only offer brunch the first Sunday of the month. They have an extensive wine menu and do have wine based cocktails and mimosas. On Sundays they have happy hour all day. I had she zucchini fries. The serving was big enough to share. It came with a side of marinara. For my meal, I had the avocado toast with poached eggs. The avocado has just the right amount of lime. It came with a hash brown patty. The hashbrown patty was just ok. For dessert, we shared the pancakes. They were sooooo good. Definitely full of butter, but not complaints from us.

Everything good. Service was nice. Friendly people there. The wife got a mexican martini to start while I selected a Tempranillo from their wine list. I had to rely on the tasting notes since didn't recognize any wines. It was delicious. Everyone enjoyed. And we got a 2nd bottle. Nice place. Would be fun to sit outside. Sorry no pics.

There were plenty of tempting options on the menu, all delivered quickly, and lots of comfortable seating available (we happily claimed the couch!). Service was generally good, though it could have been excellent if our server hadn't checked on us quite so frequently (over 8 times) and avoided discussing other customers' issues with a colleague within earshot. Overall, a very enjoyable visit but I'm still thinking if we will be go back anytime soon.

I had the Marinara with meatballs, my wife the Salsa Rosa with shrimp. The other sauce is an Alfredo, and the protein is chicken. (You can mix and match!)

My wife's Salad Rosa was a nice creamy sauce with succulent shrimp. The dinner comes with 2 fresh bread rolls. We ordered a cup of the tomato basil soup which was outstanding! This menu is a fantastic addition to an already must-try wine bistro. It is definitely a place in which you will feel at home.

BLUF: Delicious pies and a quiet place to sit…read more This awesome spot is located right across from Halcyon . It is in a shopping center of sorts in a commercial establishment here in San Antonio. I say this because it lets you know that there are two entrances and you'll be graded regardless , but you will be indicated where to sit if you go to the hostess front desk by the firewood first Customer service was outstanding and earned this place. It's fifth star. I was made to feel welcome and when the sun in the San Antonio skies was shining right in my face through a window because of the time of the afternoon, I knew I would have no luck studying, so I was moved without hesitation. I know that switching tables might be a little bar but believe me when I'm telling you that simply doing a job versus doing it with a smile, makes the world of a difference to me. The food was fantastic by the way , I'd be remiss if I didn't gush about the meatballs and the pizza. I have never tried spicy honey chicken before and I'm glad that I chose this spot to do it for the first time. Everything is literally made to order right then, and there and the absolute freshness of the ingredients shows from the first bite to the very last. There seemed to be other people studying there too as well as what looked like groups of 2 to 8 occupying various tables so this establishment lends itself to family or party friendly dinner reservations.

This was the best birthday celebration I can recall having in years. It was over 100 degrees…read moreoutside so we were a bit worried about our reservations on the lake and the tavern being a hot day, but that was totally unnecessary. My group was given two boats for a very roomy experience with canopies for lots of shade if desired (but these were pulled back at night to enjoy the stars), there was even shaded areas on the lake (if you want to sip a cocktail with the boat shading you) on a lillypad to float if desired. The lake breeze and the wind as the boats cruised make it completely cool both on the lake and on the floating tavern. A rental of time at Floating Tavern is completely an experience that feels like you are out of the United States. It is so exotic! They cater your day totally to what you want to do. Want jet skis? Fine. Want to go cliff diving? Fine. Want to just cruise the lake or take a trip with music? That works too. Just chill out sipping a cocktail on a lillypad or floating? Go for it. Once your water time and cruise time is completed, the real fun begins. With expert captains having given us a great lake tour, we pulled up to the floating tavern and that was just incredible. I brought electric candles for the table to level up the experience a bit but they did it all so well with or without them and it was so roomy even for our large group! They had dimmed lights for ambiance, a mixologist squeezing fresh juices for us for amazing drinks she made with the alcohol we brought, (their alcohol package may be easier next time as it is very affordable) and we had two chefs creating small bites for us hot and cooked right there on the tavern as the sun set and we were surrounded only by lake and stars, docked right there in the middle of the lake. The service was exemplary and far beyond our expectations of fun and being catered to. You can bring some of your own food too to make a full party if desired. The communication leading up to the event was exceptional and I'll be honest, I would much rather book this experience with friends a few times a year then ever buy a boat. It is the best lake experience and lake dining you will ever have and the hosts are a huge part of the fun of the day. True experts at what they do and we are a group of well traveled, well dined foodies (including two professional chefs) and we were completely wowed at our evening. It's the vibe that gets you. You will completely shake off all stress spending an evening this way!

Our team assistant reached out about a table around 2pm, she followed up with us around 9:45 pm saying she could get us a table. She said she would call us back around 11:15 to confirm. She texted around 1145 confirming the table & asking when we could be there. We told her we could be there in the next 30 min and she told us "that won't work bc I need to make my money". Verbatim!!!! She ended up selling the table without offering any option for us to keep it! We were left without plans bc we weee banking on CRU!!!! SERIOUSLY? Absolutely disgusted with the lack of discretion. She would have "made her money" and some. Just by waiting 30 min after she confirmed the table to give us time to get there. Unfortunately we weren't able to be there in 10 min. We play The Spurs again at the end of the month & we WONT be inquiring here. Will definitely be spreading the memo.

I love the industrial vibe of the place. It was a rainy Saturday and the place wasn't particularly busy, so the service was good! Our server was friendly and knowledgable about the menu, and the food, while small in portion size (they are tapas, after all) was delicious. We started with the tostadas de chorizo and the house sangria. Both were super tasty. Then we ordered the chistorra (Spanish sausage) and pan con tomate, and finally we shared the albondiga...a giant meatball that was perfection. Can't wait to go back to Boerne and have some more Spanish goodness!

Today, it was brunch with my big brother at The Brunch Spot in Converse, TX (suburb of San Antonio), and it absolutely lived up to its name. I ordered the avocado toast and my brother ordered the French toast served with eggs and bacon. Their slogan is "we're serving up sunshine". Love that! Who don't need a little sunshine? Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The avocado toast was simple...creamy avocado spread generously over hearty toast, seasoned perfectly and topped with a fresh egg whites that tied it all together. It was filling without being too heavy and tasted even better than it looked. The French toast was the real delight. The bread was thick, soft on the inside, and lightly crisp on the outside, with just the right amount of sweetness. Paired with well cooked eggs and crispy, savory bacon, it struck that perfect balance between sweet and savory that makes a brunch memorable. Beyond the food, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Na, short for Ajanay, was friendly and attentive. The Brunch Spot is definitely a great choice if you're looking for a satisfying, comfort style brunch.
