    Triple Henbit burger with Peeler Farms Wagyu beef, American cheese, sour pickles, tomatoes, grilled onions, lettuce, and shiitake aioli
    Ryan M.

    I was looking forward to being the first to review Henbit -- the new "popup" burger joint at The Pearl's food hall -- not because I craved a smattering of insincere "Congrats on your FTR!" "compliments" from strangers but because I was duly impressed and wanted my review to take the interwebs by storm. Unfortunately, I see that a fellow named John E. has beaten me to the punch. *Fortunately*, however, Mr. E.'s review focuses on Henbit's vegan "chicken" sandwich*, so I shall still be the first to regale Yelp with my fresh (and totally accurate) assessment of the main event, the outstanding Henbit burger! The skeletal menu describes the Henbit burger as follows: two patties of Peeler Farms beef, milk bun, American cheese, shitake aioli, sour pickles, tomato, onions, and red romaine. What the menu doesn't divulge is that the patties are smashed, which often translates to "hard and bereft of all juiciness." If you read my review of Tin Top Burger Co. in New Braunfels (the owner sure did...and he didn't like it one bit!), then you know how I feel about the trendy smash burger concept. In many cases, the patties are about as texturally appealing and juicy as a bulldozed hockey puck. In very rare instances, however, a burger joint works its alchemy to produce a smashed patty that's crisp and desiccated around the edges yet juicy in the middle. Such was the case at Henbit! Of course, a burger is more than just the meat. The other constituent parts -- nothing superfluous -- must coalesce, mingle, and meld into something special. I'm pleased to report, Dear Reader, that the Henbit burger -- in all its constituent parts -- was indeed nothing short of spectacular. At first, I was concerned that the bun might be too weak to withstand the juices from the meat and veggies, but it held up from beginning to end. The shitake aioli might sound like a gimmick, but it added a bold umami flavor reminiscent of *real* black truffles. The tomato and pickles cut through the richness with sweetness and acidity, respectively, while the onions and romaine added crunch. If you took a gander at my photo (which *should* be the featured one on Yelp), then you probably noticed that it includes not two but three patties. That's because I added a third for $3.50 extra. Each patty weighs only three ounces, so nine ounces of beef doesn't sound too extravagant...unless you're some kind of a wuss. I'm not sure how long Henbit will remain in The Pearl's food hall, but it strikes me as a semi-permanent fixture. Perhaps the owners are advertising it as a limited-time offering simply to drum up business. I can only speculate. What I *can* tell you is that my burger ranked among the top five in the city...and that's saying something coming from me. I go out a lot, I eat lots of burgers, and I'm super duper smart. I know of what I speak, folks, so trust me when I say that Henbit is an excellent addition to The Pearl and one of the best places for a burger in San Antonio. *Ordering a vegan "chicken" sandwich from a burger joint is like ordering water at a saloon in the Wild West...or using a slingshot in the showdown that ensues when the other patrons disapprove of your beverage of choice.

    Veggie Chicken Sandwich
    Vanessa P.

    Henbit is located smack in the middle of the food hall! We honestly chose them because it was the shortest line. Boy did we luck out! I ordered the veggie chicken sandwich and the rest of the fam got the burgers. Everything was so good and flavored so well. Everything was made to order and came out pretty quick. The rosemary fry's were so good, you have to get an order. We will definitely be back!

    Kale salad

    This was my last meal before leaving San Antonio and it was delicious. Isaiah helped me and he was so welcoming and professional. I ordered the kale salad and it was so good I'll be recreating it at home.

    First things first the rosemary fries are worth it!! When you stop here you can expect a nice juicy gourmet burger!

    Burger and fries were fantastic! Fries crunchy yet a little potato taste inside. Lightly salted and almost beer battered? Burger was the fajita one with peppers and cheese. It was smash style with crispy edges but most on the inside. Awesome place in the Pearl district.

    Conveniently located in the Pearl, the Henbit is inside the food court. You can grab a table outside our inside and they will text you when your order is ready. They offer gourmet hamburgers and fries. They were all delicious! Great to accompany a cold margarita on a hot summer or fall day in SA. The ambiance is great to hang out with friends of family.

    Pesto burger with the garlic rosemary fires
    Jonathon G.

    Was lucky enough to be able to get here on a weekday with no line. Friendly service. Had food in hand in about 5 minutes. My only critique is that I felt I had more bun and not enough burger contents to fill it. Delicious flavor. Fries were amazing. Just wish I had either less bun or more to fill it. Delicious.

    Getting ready for some good eatin' at HENBIT
    Glenda G.

    Everything was perfect. He even made my delicious burger without the delicious milk bun! They were accommodating, and I really tasted the flavor the chef put into the pimento cheese bacon burger. They have a case of beverages you can choose from soda to orange juice.

Every detail feels thoughtfully planned, making the restaurant feel both comfortable and elevated. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Each dish looked as amazing as it tasted, with quality ingredients and attention to detail evident in every plate. It's clear that a lot of care goes into both the menu and the presentation. The service was exceptional. The staff was friendly, attentive, and welcoming throughout the entire experience. Even during a special event, the team remained professional, organized, and focused on ensuring guests felt appreciated. A special compliment to the management team, whose leadership and dedication were evident in every aspect of the restaurant. Their passion for creating a memorable dining experience truly shines through. Bella Green has made a fantastic first impression, and I look forward to returning. Congratulations to the entire team on a beautiful opening and a wonderful dining experience!

    First, I'll start by saying I had mine delivered by Uber Eats. The failed operations of this place…read moreis astounding. First, the wrong order was provided to the driver. The bag had nothing on the outside to determine which order it is. The driver was kind enough to return and swap out the orders even though they have no responsibility to do so. Upon return, the order was missing an item. Total incompetence at this place. The dressing for the Caesar salad was awful. Tasted like it was made with mostly mayonnaise. The ratio of bread crumbs to lettuce was overwhelming. Luckily, those are easy to pick out. The mac&cheese wasn't very cheesy. And the only option is fake noodles. Ridiculous. Terrible texture obviously with fake noodles. I also added roasted cauliflower. The chunks of cauliflower were too big and required the use of a knife to cut into edible portions. Seemed like lazy knife work in the kitchen. The Wagyu burger was pretty good and cooked to the doneness I requested. The jalapeños I added were diced into really small pieces. No pith. Therefore, no spice. And jalapeno with pith fully removed also has almost no flavor. I'm also not a fan of cheddar cheese on a burger but they don't allow for American or Monterrey Jack. The "fire roasetd tomato basil" soup was decent but still problematic. The cheese included is mozzarela. Never I have had a tomato soup that didn't use parmigian. And the mozzarela was a single gooey lump not sliced at advertised. Also, it was supposed to be "fire roasted" tomato soup. This is a lie. There was zero evidence of roasted tomatoes by sight or taste. I also could not detect by sight or flavor any hint of basil.

We were seated right away, we chose the chef's table because we had already eaten dinner at home, but just wanted to go out for a stroll around the pearl and grab some dessert. We ordered the lemon blueberry Panna cotta and not only is it delicious but it's also beautiful! It looks like a work of art. I ordered one of their craft beers and we got some french fries on the side just to offset the sweet. Definitely a great dessert if you are not wanting something too sweet or two filling. It has been over 10 years since I have been here to eat, but being there reminded me how much I loved the last meal I had here so I am eager to go back for lunch or dinner!

We also had the snapper throats and loved them. The aioli was a great sauce with them. I had the gulf catch of the day, which was grouper, and it was so good. Great seasoning, perfectly flaky and moist, a nice crust on the outside. With that we had some jalapeno corn bread which was also delicious. Not too dry at all. I was hoping for it to be spicy but it was not. For dessert, I gad panna cotta and it was a great ending. Not too sweet, but the berries made up for that. The lavender meringue bites had a great crunch. Our server (Maya) was excellent. She was so friendly and helpful. Finally, the decor is unmatched anywhere. It used to be a brewery and they kept the old pipes and valves, which look very cool. It has a great vibe. I highly recommend. Without the need to, I'll mention anyway that it's not cheap. But it's worth it.

Our server was great - knowledgable about the menu and personable. We had a nice meal here and I ended it with delicious coffee. We both ordered from the Restaurant Week 3-Course menu. My friend tried: -Toasted Cauliflower Soup with Pumpkin and Sesame Seeds -Crispy Smoked Quail with Pickled Corn Relish and Mashed Potatoes I tried: -Red Pear and Spinach Salad with Radicchio, Pecans, White Cheddar and Sherry Vinaigrette -Halibut with Green Pepper, White Beans, Castelvetrano Olives and Herbs For dessert: -Caramelized Fig and Ricotta Upside-Down Cake with Pistacio Crumble and Mascarpone We both got the same dessert and it was delicous!

My wife and I went to Supper at Hotel Emma for our anniversary, and we couldn't have asked for a better evening. We sat at the kitchen bar, which ended up being one of the highlights of the night. It was so much fun watching the chefs work, and everyone in the kitchen was incredibly friendly, personable, and welcoming. To make the night even more special, they prepared a few dishes specifically for our anniversary. That personal touch meant so much to us and made the entire evening feel truly memorable. The food was excellent, but what really stood out was the experience and the people. Supper went above and beyond to make our anniversary feel special, and we left feeling like we had celebrated somewhere truly unique. I'd highly recommend Supper at Hotel Emma for anyone looking to celebrate a special occasion. If you're lucky enough to sit at the kitchen bar, definitely do it!

As far as the food, we had the fried mozzarella, which was essentially a log of cheese deep-fried and served over sauce. It was delicious, but the cheese-to-crust ratio was a bit heavy. The Caesar salad looked better than it tasted. It was very wet, if that makes sense, and the lettuce seemed soggy. Now for the Wagyu ragu. This almost made me have a seizure, and not in a good way. It was extremely salty and completely inedible, so we had to send it back. The waitstaff was very accommodating and agreed that the salt level was way off, so we replaced it with the carbonara. I'm not sure if that's what authentic carbonara is supposed to taste like, but I did not enjoy it. It tasted burnt to me and had too much pepper. I also didn't care for the shape of the noodles. Last, we had the Americano pizza. It was decent, but nothing to write home about. I just think that if you're going to advertise a pizza with meat on it, there should be more than one piece of sausage per slice. As far as the service, our server was fine. Not particularly friendly, but straightforward and efficient. The manager (or another server) was helpful when it came to replacing our dish. Overall, I would not go back. The location is great and the vibe is nice, but the food was a miss. Save your money and go somewhere else.
