    The Recruit Burger
    Larry S.

    While traveling for work, I stopped at Bombshells Restaurant & Bar for lunch on a Saturday around 1:00 PM. The place wasn't too busy when I arrived. The vibe is very similar to places like Hooters or Twin Peaks, with waitresses in short skirts and tight tops. That type of atmosphere isn't my personal preference, but it was close to my hotel, and I hadn't read any reviews beforehand. The menu is extensive, with lots of options. I went with something simple and ordered the Recruit Burger--just lettuce, onions, tomatoes, mayo, and a pickle spear on the side, served with French fries. Unfortunately, the burger was a letdown: the patty was very thin and lacked any real flavor. I was hungry, so I finished it, but it was definitely disappointing. The fries were greasy and came in a smaller portion than I would expect from a place like this. The unsweetened iced tea was the highlight of the meal--cold and refreshing, thanks to Lipton. The service, at least, was solid. My waitress was attentive and didn't push me to order quickly, giving me plenty of time to review the menu. The atmosphere is military-themed with lots of TVs for watching games, but the music choice was more suited to a dance club than a restaurant and bar. The loud music added to the overall noise, as groups had to raise their voices to talk over it. One positive is that they do offer a military discount for our brave men and women who serve or have served, which is a nice touch. Overall, the meal didn't meet my expectations, and I can't recommend Bombshells. It takes a lot for me to leave a bad review, but this one was disappointing from start to finish.

    Simple dinner salad.

    We didn't know about this chain when we tried it, so we didn't know it would be similar to a Hooters when we took my 87 yr old mother in there. But, we are fun loving people willing to try places out. We arrived at about 6:45...the only people there were at the bar, should have just turned around right then....but, we didn't. Instead, we sat and ordered. Shouldn't have. Looking past all the butt cheeks hanging out, we ordered a top shelf margarita, a signature drink, a club sandwich w fries, salad, and a burger w fries. Initially our drinks showed up quickly...but the margarita had no salt on the glass (waitress didn't even ask if it was wanted or not, so it seems the bartender just didn't do it), it tasted ok. The signature drink was watery. Then the salad came out about 7 minutes later....a few minutes later, the club sandwich is brought out, the kitchen didn't even cut it. When we had been sitting there for 30 minutes the burger and fries STILL hadn't arrived. I finally got our servers attention (who truly was completely emotionless and looked like she could care less about us) to complain. I got excuses. What excuse is suitable for a dead restaurant that can't get three simple items out at the same time? She went and spoke to the Manager, who came over and proceeded to say "she's supposed to have previous experience" and "I don't know what's up with the kitchen" (Isn't that your job to know?) While she was standing there the server brought the burger out....just the burger, no fries. And said they had lost that order. Ummm, the kitchen lost just the burger off of the ticket that had the other two items?? Really?? We ended up having our food comped but wow...how is this place in business? So, save yourself some grief...don't go there!

    It's ok but dead on a Friday.

    Its alright. Not as fun as a hooter or Ojos locos or anything. Food is ok. But i coukd be that is because its in San Antonio alot of staff in this city are wound up too tight to have any fun even if they are employed at an establishment to have... FUN. This is what a restaurant would be like if the Germans had won the war.

    Nice little pit stop on our way to a missions game. The beer is always nice and cold. It was also a nice day to sit on the patio. We tried this awesome combo appetizer. Chicken, hot Cheeto crusted cheese sticks and sweet egg rolls. The eggrolls were ok. Could have been more crunchy. The chicken was really good. Juicy, lightly fried. I loved it. The cheese sticks were different and the hot Cheetos didn't give spice which was good. Would def go back and get that again. Going to a missions game? Pregame at Bombshells!!!

    Patio

    Recommend if you like to drink beer and enjoy their nice big patio for sports games. Girls are definitely wearing skimpy, tight outfits. Definitely cater to the male crowd though. Wings were decent, got Cajun rub but blue cheese was meh. Ranch tasted like out of a bottle and wings just need blue cheese in my opinion. Celery was limp and lifeless even after being carried out by the scantily clad waitress. Fried Okra was tasty though. They don't have a great beer selection and it's not icy cold like the competitor across the highway. No ginger beer either, waitress wasn't even familiar with what that is. I couldn't get a TNT margarita either because they were missing ingredients. They were friendly and lots of parking, plenty of tv's and spacey inside.

    chicken strips
    Stephy B.

    I don't know why this place is rated so low!! I thought the food was really good, I ordered the chicken strips and they were so tasty and the portions were really big. Our waitress was really nice, and had took good care of us,and there were a lot of us since it's football season. The environment is welcoming and awesome. I can't wait to go back for Monday night footballI think all the staff are great!!!

    Side Cheese Fries.  This is a side order of awesome loaded fries.  YOU WANT TO ORDER THIS!!  If you like fries, then do yourself a favor.

They serve a variety of burgers, sandwiches, wings, dogs, desserts, and meals include either a side of tots, fries, cucumbers with chamoy and lucas, or corn in a cup. Other sides are available as well. This trip since we craved for burgers, ordered: Bistro burger- wonderfully seasoned and cooked, served on sourdough, with avocado, grilled onions and mushrooms, mayo. One thing that should be added, the works, I felt it would be even better with the addition of lettuce, pickles, and tomatoes. I ordered the cucumbers sans chamoy and lucas. I appreciate simple veggies. Mexican burger- excellent! Juicy burger with cheese, jalapenos, pico de gallo, bacon and the works. The tater tots had a nice and crispy outer texture as it should. Overall- very good. Tasty, reasonable, clean, and great service. We'll have to make sure to come back sooner!

Without a doubt the bar staff is probably the best I have ever seen - in ANY city. I am stunned with how great they are. Quick service, solid drink making, and super nice. The prices are what I would expect which are really good. Our bartender comes and checks on us in a timely manner and brings us drinks and so do other bartenders. It's like one big team that takes care of the customer. The atmosphere is great, especially if you want to watch sports. They have so many TV's and they are showing so many different games. This is a Raiders (NFL) bar and is filled with fans and they are super nice and respectful to everyone - even the people rooting for other teams. People talk to strangers like family. It's an eclectic mix of ages and people. This is the best place I've seen to watch sports. You can see all the games and more. The place is pretty big but I can definitely see it getting crowded when it's busy. They also have a cool patio but it's raining so we didn't check it out, but it looks great. All the furniture is pretty comfortable and they have a small fireplace which adds to the overall coziness. We planned to stop in for a drink and haven't left after sitting here for quite some time. It's just such a relaxing environment. My only complaint is that this bar isn't closer to me so I could come here regularly.
