I got Dad hot chocolate and Hubby and I both had coffee. Dad had scrambled eggs and toast. I had the Classic Breakfast with 2 eggs over easy, maple sausage, toast, and hash browns. Hubby had the chicken and biscuits, which he enjoyed very much. He said that they had used the dark meat/thigh portion. Sad that we hadn't visited sooner. I'm already wondering what this place will be in the future.

They also were great at helping build a kids plate for my kids, and we're super patient with them. The prices are on the higher side but that is not unusual for this area. Food was so good, and if your a salad person you'll love this place too!

The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and beautifully designed, creating the perfect space to enjoy a meal with family and friends. 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.

I really love the atmosphere here! The way that the dining is set up. You don't hear a lot of…read morenoise, even though there are a lot of people. 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.

We stopped in for post-dinner drinks and enjoyed the blues band that was playing. Our server, Brie was great - friendly, helpful, and very attentive. They have a nice list of spirits, including all the craft cocktails staples, like Chartreuse, to help you get the Last Word! We stayed for about an hour and a half and enjoyed the comfy seating, relaxed atmosphere, and amazing drinks. Definitely will return!

I can honestly say it exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived, the service was excellent, the drinks were perfectly crafted, and the food was absolutely outstanding. Everything we tried was delicious, from the chicken to the carrot cake--each dish was better than the last. It's not often a restaurant lives up to the hype, but Down on Grayson absolutely delivered. We had an amazing experience from start to finish, and I'm already looking forward to coming back. I think I may have just found my new go-to spot at the Pearl!

Joe deserves a shoutout…read more We were a table of 6 (3 adults and 3 kids), and I'm fully aware we were THAT table. We asked for a million extra things, had constant drink refills, and seemed to remember something else every time Joe walked by. Not once did he seem annoyed. He was friendly, patient, and somehow always one step ahead of us--our drinks never sat empty, and he made sure we had everything we needed before we even had to ask. Good food brings you in, but great service is what makes you come back. Joe made our lunch so much more enjoyable. Thanks for putting up with our chaos!

This is such a cool and trendy market in "The Pearl" area of San Antonio. They support lots of…read morelocal businesses and carry a lot of local products! Prices are high but everything seems to be great quality. I love that there are stations around the market where you can purchase prepared food! They have a coffee shop, butcher, bakery, burger stand, poke stand, make fresh tortillas, etc. Two of the restaurants connected to the market are recognized by the Michelin guide! I believe it is Mezquite and Nicosi. While I was here, I tried a burger which was really good! Definitely grab a burger if you come to shop. Also, I took to go a pizza from Fife and Farrow which was very delicous! Parking is limited and is also paid. You may want to plan to arrive before peak hours to make sure you get a spot. Parking is paid but you can get two hours parking free with a validated receipt from a purchase from Pullman Market.

My friend and I enjoyed her birthday dinner here last month during Restaurant Week…read more We had no reservation but were quickly and immediately sat upon arrival at around 5pm on a Thursday evening. 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! Served warm and comforting - like butter cake! Heavy, but veryyyyyy good. Ambiance is nice bc it's inside the beautiful Hotel Emma and on the River Walk with a lovely patio overlooking the water. Loved The Pearl and enjoyed the whole experience.

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!

What ultimately caught my attention was the screen picture of the smoked chicken salad. HOWEVER, they were out of said chicken salad so I ended up getting the olive pesto sandwich which has ham, turkey, olive tapenade, basil pesto, jalapeno cream cheese, pickled peppers and swiss cheese all made on sourdough. I must say I was a little skeptical of the olives since I'm not a huge fan, but I'm glad I ordered. everything went well together and the olive tapenade was delicious. I also got a side order of their beef tallow fried house chips which I enjoyed. I love a good homemade potato chip. Will be back to try that smoked chicken salad, glad to know there's other good things on the menu.

I was excited to check this place out because I had heard good things. Unfortunately, I feel like…read moreit's a bit overhyped. 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.
