I ordered the Shroom Y Swiss burger and loved every bite of it! The caramelized onions were pretty sweet but still had a slight crunch and in my opinion, they were cooked to perfection! I love the concept of having a playground near eating tables. My son was able to have a blast paying and I was able to enjoy a nice meal with my family, such a win-win! Our waitress seemed knowledgeable and had a friendly personality. She seemed to handle the "after church rush" very well. 5/5 recommended and I will definitely be back! read more

We had a goodbye lunch for a coworker here. It was close to our work and offers plenty of parking. Being by the Pearl parking is a pain and costly. Service was great considering they only had one waitress. I ordered the lunch special which came with a flatbread with a side salad and a drink. I enjoyed my meal. The place is nice and cozy. They also have $1 wings on Wednesday and minimum is 3. Everyone enjoyed their food. Definitely a nice place to have lunch. Their menu has a lot of offer. read more

My family and I went to Backyard on Broadway for a kids birthday party. It was our first time going there. I wasn't sure how it was going to be just based on what I saw with yelp. When you first walk it you just see a bar and some TVs for football games. We went to the outside part that has a kids play ground which is cool that way the kids can play while the parents have a drink or eat. It really gives the kids something to do. They have signs outside that say no playing ball games which is fine. My boys had a good time which is good for us adults. When you go outside, you'll see a patio that has seating. There's another spot by the playground that has seating with covers. You know what the Texas weather. You never know if it's gonna rain so you're covered, especially with the sun. They even have fans out there. My wife had the cob salad which she was super happy with. They do not go cheap on the salad that's for sure. You can definitely take it home for left overs. I got the cowboy burger. I highly recommend it. I almost got a pizza but I'm really glad I went with that burger. The service was great it was only one waitress for the party. She was really hustling and make sure everyone was taken care of. read more

We've been here twice, once for a Yelp event and once for a Margarita Festival hosted by the International Margarita Organization. Both experiences were great. It was packed like sardines, but somehow it wasn't overwhelming or too difficult to get service. The food was amazing both times we went (we ordered from the restaurant rather than the event we attended) The first time we went, the food was spectacular and service timing was appropriate for how busy it was. Today when we went, they were out of pico de gallo, but we also ordered a bit later in the evening so I'd expect to be out of small things like pico. They ended up replacing it with avocado on the nachos so I certainly feel that makes up for such a small first world inconvenience. Quite honestly, I don't even care for pico all that much anyway! We also ordered hot buffalo wings which were delicious. It was packed today yet the food came out SO fast. I get wings and nachos don't take long to cook, but with how packed the event was and the restaurant being open, I expected a longer wait. We will eventually wander back over to this side of town to try the restaurant without an event happening. The burger and fries I saw looked spectacular. read more

Backyard on Broadway is a great place for a casual meal, watching a game and enjoying a restaurant/bar with a great outdoor area. The food was good, we had wings and pizza and the drinks were well made. The service was average, our order came out timely. What makes this place stand out is their large outdoor area. There is turf, multiple deck areas with picnic tables and covering for shade and even a play area off to the side for kids. They even have a stage area outside for live music. Backyard on Broadway is a good casual family friendly bar/restaurant that seems to have plenty of planned entertainment for patrons. read more

Came for a quick lunch. I think this place is a bar and food is an afterthought. The Ceasar salad was honestly the best thing we had here. We added chicken and it was delicious! They didn't skimp either. The classic burger was ok, nothing special. The fries are ok. We also had hummus spread. We should've known better, it wasn't very good. The flatbread wasn't bad. This is classic bar food. I'm wary of rating an establishment like this, because normally the food isn't the best. If you're just coming to eat it's a no, if you're coming to drink I can see the appeal. It's a no for us. Waitress was great though. read more

My review is mainly because there's been a lot of changes and it wasn't exactly the vibe we were hoping for. In the past we've been able to watch the game outside while the kids play and we could keep an eye on them. There was also a large stage we've enjoyed watching bands. Now There are no tv's outside and we were told we could not have the volume on for the game (although we were the only people inside). The only positive to this place is the food. The Pb&j pizza was terrific. Will be back to eat but no longer going to use this place for parties moving forward. Also, We overheard the waitress say from the kitchen (right next to our table) we put the volume only for important games like the spurs but don't tell them that. lol read more

Tried out Backyard on Broadway mainly so my kid could run around and burn some energy in the park area but I ended up loving the chill, laid-back vibe! Our server was super sweet and checked on us often, which I really appreciated. We ordered quite a few different things, and overall, they were okay. My husband got the chili cheese dog and really enjoyed it ! There was lots of cheese and looked amazing! The root beer cream soda was a miss for me though. I was expecting something fizzy, but it wasn't carbonated at all. The caramel churros were unfortunately really hard, and the Frito pie came out cold and kind of bland. BUT the pizza totally made up for it. It was so good, and I honestly could've eaten the whole thing myself if it wasn't for my kid. The kids' chicken strips were also really fresh and tasty! Overall, we had a great time. The atmosphere and service were awesome, and I'd definitely come back to try more menu items next time! read more

Just left Backyard on Broadway with my boyfriend and our kids. We walked into the restaurant and was greeted by only a sign "please wait to be seated" we stood there for ~6/7 minutes and waited patiently, as other patrons walked right into the back past the sign. The kids took pictures so we weren't in an imminent rush to be seated, but after no one approached us after several minutes we figured maybe the sign was outdated and we decided to walk to where the tables were. The hostess finally approached us (not even looking at us) and said "are you joining a party already here" I said "no we're not, we are a party of 4." And she (still not looking at us) pointed in the direction of the front door "go back to the host stand where it says 'wait to be seated." I said "well, we were there for several minutes and no one came up to us." She walked away without apologizing for the wait, without any explanation. We left and went to Down on Grayson. Way better service, where we were IMMEDIATELY greeted by multiple hostesses and workers and seated within 30 seconds. Thanks for the shitty first time experience, we won't be back! read more

We have been back 3 times in the past 6 weeks! Everything continues to be amazing, from service to the food. We have been disappointed though that each time we return, they do not have the Japanese seltzer. We have been back on a Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. We really enjoy those drinks and keep hoping they will be in stock. New things we have tried are the PB&J pizza, rum punch, and churros. We have had the wings with hot honey and the cheese pizza for our kids every time. All hot and amazing. One time they accidentally burned the pizza, but quickly replaced it and added in some churros, which were crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Amazing. I think we are regulars at this point! Kids love the playground and there are always other kiddos to play with. Excellent music too! read more

Came here for a dinner with friends and young kids early on a Friday night (because when you have littles, dinner at 5 is perfect). Service was great - we were quickly helped and got our pick of the place - we were the first group in the restaurant. Even with the fans, shade, and playground outside, none of us wanted to melt so we opted to stay inside.. I was a little nervous about the food, after reading some negative reviews, but we were pleasantly surprised! While I wouldn't say they are "The Best American Food in San Antonio", as their website proudly boasts, they weren't bad! I enjoyed my pulled pork melt and my husband enjoyed his Cowboy Burger (but he's not picky). The fries + truffle aioli dip were excellent. Great place for groups and love how kid-friendly they are! read more

The food is great , it isn't overpriced. The playground is a pretty good size for the kids to have fun. Also, the drinks are good. Overall, a great spot on Broadway read more

I had the weirdest experience here this past weekend. I came out of town to visit and my family chose this place to hang at. They made a reservation online for a table of 18 for 6pm. We were late, I will admit fault to that however when we arrived we were told by the hostess they were backed up but that they would get our tables ready and we would be waited on first. We stuck around in the front for a while however we had kids who were getting antsy and the front was getting crowded. We walked to the back to get out of the way to see what seemed like a 100 open tables. When we walked out the hostess or server, not sure what she was, followed us. When we asked her if we could find a table she said that was fine but we just would not have a waiter for a while as they were backed up. Which was fine for us because we just wanted to sit down and the kids wanted to play. I personally asked her that if we wanted to order at the bar would that be ok and she said yes. Honestly, the bar service was probably the only good service I received in my short visit. After waiting about 30 minutes we KINDLY asked if we had an eta for a server. This man who claimed was the GM came to us in the most rudest manner. He spoke to us as if we were children. Belittled us and scolded us for being late. When we tried to explain that his hostess allowed us to find a table he kept saying "I'm not calling you a liar but I don't believe you" his attitude was awful! It was like he was dying for a viral moment. That was not our intent or ammo. He tried to compare the reservation experience to that of a restaurant but honestly they are not the same. A restaurant gives you a grace period, they text you to confirm, they provide proper communication and make the accommodations. After we were done speaking with the so called GM. We saw him walking over to employees and pointing to us as if his intent was to make us feel uncomfortable on purpose. We told him we would be on our way after we finished the drinks we payed for. On the way out he stood at the door proudly holding and offering his card as if he had waited for a moment like this to happen. I told him first impressions were everything and this was by far the worst experience I have ever had in San Antonio. There were dozens of dirty tables, what seemed like 3 workers, and a wait process that does not seem to be working. If you look at the Google reviews they are similar and he's on there responding in the same nasty attitude we received. No accountability, no empathy, and certainly not the acts of a "GM" I will never return. They should have left it the way it was prior to these changes. Just a weird overall experience, very disappointing. read more

Came for a quick snack this afternoon because the Frito Pie sounded so good and it did not disappoint! Had the caramel churros and a scoop of ice cream for dessert. Everything was delicious including the chips and queso. They have a big outdoor area and a good number of tables inside. The stools are no where near comfortable and that's a bummer but ok. The hostess sat us right away with a beautiful smile and great disposition. Ronnie, our server was extremely attentive and had great drink suggestions! I will definitely be back! I will review again when I come back for a full meal! Looking forward to it! read more

Went on Friday with a group of friends, needless to say my burger and fries were the best meal I've had in a while! It was so good! Although my friend ordered a pizza and it wasn't the best...we all took a bite out of it and it indeed was terrible. Our server attended us well and was always checking up on us. Very friendly. The ambiance was decent, not too loud and not too quiet. It's pretty chill hangout atmosphere. I recommend it! Just don't order a pizza unless you get lucky read more

I live in the area so I was excited to try this place for the first time. I was sat at a table by a host immediately. Unfortunately, we sat without menus or any form of contact for about 20 minutes. Several waiters passed us as we waited. We decided to dine somewhere else instead. read more

We just left - didn't seem like they wanted us there read more
