    There is no other place like it ! If you're looking for a dining experience that's as stunning as it is delicious, look no further than Jardín, tucked away in the breathtaking San Antonio Botanical Garden. This restaurant is a true hidden gem, offering a feast for both the palate and the eyes. From the moment you step onto the patio surrounded by lush greenery, you'll feel like you've been transported to a Mediterranean oasis. The ambiance is elegant yet welcoming, with fresh garden vibes that complement the menu perfectly. Speaking of the menu--it's a masterpiece! Jardín's focus on fresh, seasonal ingredients shines in every dish. The service is just as exceptional--attentive and warm, making you feel like a guest in someone's home. Pair your meal with a crisp glass of wine or one of their creative cocktails, and you'll see why this spot is a must-visit. Pro tip: don't skip dessert! Jardín is more than a restaurant; it's an experience. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply treating yourself, you'll leave feeling nourished and inspired. Make a reservation, and prepare to fall in love with this botanical paradise! And if I'm honest, the prices are so perfect. I'd rather spend $14 on a delicious chef designed meal than $14 at a fast food place ANY DAY!

    Book club meeting at this cute area right next to Botanical Gardens. Very large inside- ideal for larger groups. We made reservations for Sunday brunch but probably could have just walked in right at opening. The waffle was tasty- but a bit too thick for my tastes and the drinks were good. More of an aesthetically pleasing place. Food was

    Located inside the botanical gardens area. It is not inside the garden as you can drive to it via the parking lot. Just continue driving straight until you hit a stop sign and you'll see it on the right hand side when you come into the botanical gardens drive. Went for lunch on a weekday. It wasn't busy. We got seated right away and recommendations were provided by our waitress. We started off with a mezze appetizer. I got the deviled eggs, Sicilian cauliflower , and the naan. The deviled eggs were to die for. They are soft boiled and topped with red onion jam. I could've definitely eaten more of them. They are not your typical deviled eggs that have mayo mix. The cauliflower was Just OK. I would consider something else next time. The naan bread was delicious. You don't even need anything to dip it in because it's full of flavorful spices. For my main meal I got the dirty patatas bravas with a fried egg. They came on a bed of spicy sauce. The potatoes were tater tots. The dish was good, but not excellent. I ordered a latte and requested it not too sweet. It was perfect. At the end, we treated ourselves with the donut of the day. The presentation was beautiful. It was strawberry with petal roses. It was a great end of meal treat. The place is very cute. I can see people having baby showers or bridal showers there. They do have brunch and lunch available. Parking is on site, free and plentiful

    Let's start off strong. The place is cute for a brunch outing. Nice indoor area. It does get pretty loud so keep that in mind if you're looking for something quiet. Saw reviews about a DJ some days. Luckily no DJ this day. The service was eh. Took about 10mins before someone came by for drink order. At one point we had another server come ask if we'd been helped (we had at this point) so they obviously noticed the lack of attention. Food. We tried the Mezze with the dates, bruschetta and deviled eggs. All pretty decent. I enjoyed the dates the most. They were pretty sweet. Deviled eggs were mid. First cup of coffee was cold. Unsure how that was not noticed when it was brought over because when we asked for a replacement the coffee was visibly hot and steaming. Pancakes were pretty good. Thick so if you like thick pancakes you're in luck. The salmon. It was a definite no. If you look at the picture it's a ridiculous amount for $22. It was so salty almost as if they dropped it in a mound of salt then pan seared it. I had to pick at it and eat the middle. I would not recommend especially at that price. Overall I would not recommend this place. 2 stars only for atmosphere.

    Went here for their new brunch offerings and it was superb! It's open and airy with garden influences that make you feel calm. The servers are so sweet & super attentive too. I never know what to get so I always ask, & they know the good stuff! Food is impeccable and well plated as well! You'll see petals and herbs on a lot of the dishes to give it that special oomph! I ordered just about one thing from each section! Garden Frittata for the brunch vibes, chilled shrimp from the shareables, salmon from the lunch menu, blueberry waffles from the sweet brunch, amongst mezze items and others. I love snacking on a variety so the mezze stuff is perfect, & you gotta pair it with their famous naan pita! Dessert is so good too! The chocolate torte is so decadent! They also offer mocktails and coffee! I got both but my coffee never came out, no worries though! Would recommend!

    This restaurant has a lot of mixed reviews but we had a fantastic experience. We stopped by on a Wednesday afternoon about an hour and a half before closing. Firstly, the restaurant is beautiful the location is stunning right outside of the botanical gardens. If we weren't in a rush to drive back to Houston we would have loved to explore. Our waitress was a woman with really stylish eyeglasses, she was very kind and attentive. I ordered a Stop & Smell The Flowers mocktail, Turkey Sandwich, and Spicy Pickle Tots. The mocktail was delicious and refreshing. I loved the turkey sandwich, it has a sauce on it that was a little tangy and it was delicious. The tots were good but I didn't get much spice or pickle flavor. My coworker had the Lamb Burger and she said it was delicious, and she really enjoyed her Vietnamese coffee with whipped cream and edible rose petals. Overall, if I'm ever back in San Antonio I will absolutely stop by here again!

    Jardin offers a unique dining experience, situated beautifully within the botanical gardens. The service starts off refreshing, with water served with both lemon and lime slices--a nice touch. I chose the restaurant week menu option. I opted for the Mezze Sampler which included lentils, cauliflower, and lemon ricotta topped with red wine vinegar. While all the components were served cold and the cauliflower was particularly flavorful, the vinegar on the ricotta was a bit too bitter for my taste. Additionally, it's worth noting that pita bread costed extra. The Fattoush Salad followed, which was a pleasant continuation of the meal. However, the real star of the evening was the Salmon and Orzo--absolutely delicious with perfectly cooked orzo and a sweet topping that made it my favorite part of the meal. To finish, I tried the Olive Oil Cake. I was quite full by this point, so I packed most of it up after a small taste, but it was very delicious and left a lasting impression. I also enjoyed a Peach Bellini, which was strong and effective, though it could have used a bit more peach flavor. While the botanical gardens setting is undoubtedly beautiful, the presence of several curious insects did detract slightly from the experience. Though I mentioned the bugs to the staff, I later noticed bug fans inside that were not offered to me. Also, gratuity was automatically included, which is good to note for future visits. Overall, my experience at Jardin was positive. I would like to visit again one day but would definitely choose to eat inside next time.

    Was visiting the botanical gardens an found that there's a restaurant onsite. I wanted a quick drink and was able to enjoy the gardens in their outdoor seating area. Prices aren't too bad. Servers were nice and friendly but they were quite scattered. They'd bring food to the wrong tables and didn't communicate with each other as to what tables had been serviced so we waited for water for a bit. The mimosa was fine and great for a morning stroll through the gardens.

    Visited here after a trip to the Botanical Gardens left me with a rumbly in my tumbly. The location is in the same parking lot so it worked out. The food options aren't exactly what I expect from a Mediterranean restaurant but still a delightful treat! I had the breakfast sandwich which was very filling and good, and my husband had the stuffed French toast which he enjoyed as well!

    I must say that I was pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. First off, I did not know this existed until my friend suggested we give it a try for dinner. We had reservations for 6 PM which was the right time to go. We were one of the first so we got the waiter's full attention. We started with the pork belly hummus served with naan that's topped with butter, garlic & herbs. This was absolutely delicious!! It was so good that I ordered another to go. Our other sides were deviled eggs (topped with hollandaise sauce), dates stuffed with cheddar and pickled cauliflower. The dates were also a crowd favorite. I had the eggplant stuffed with mozzarella parmigiana. Again, much like the other dishes mentioned, I loved it!! My friend had the roasted chicken which she did not really care for. It was pretty bland. We finished our dinner with their olive oil cake which I would skip next time. The cake was quite dry. Our waiter was very friendly and made sure he personalized the service. This cute restaurant is a place I'd return to just to try their other dishes.

    Great Brunch Spot! We had the tiramisu pancakes (so fluffy), blueberry waffles, brisket hash, and a mezze trio--everything was delicious! I was obsessed with the grilled cheese sandwich. Loved the relaxed vibe and the service was on point. Perfect spot for a laid-back brunch with Mediterranean flavors. Will definitely be back!

    I am an international traveler and have been to restaurant all over the world and I can't speak highly enough of Jardin. The food was AMAZING, the service was incredible. The ambience is cozy and elegant at the same time. I came for brunch on Sunday and the manager, Ripley, greeted us and took extra time to explain the menu and make recommendations and we had the Naan, the Turkey Club, the Beet salad, and the Avocado toast. I am so grateful he made those suggestions because everything was fantastic! I highly recommend the Limoncello Spritzer. And make sure you say hi to the manager, Ripley, because he was awesome!

    Our book clubs pick for May meetup. I was excited to try another of Jason Dady's restaurants, having previously been to Tre & Range. This was had a Mediterranean twist and was so delicious. Everything was fresh and flavorful. The girls couldn't get enough of the Flora Martini. I ordered the mezzo plate w/tzatziki, deviled eggs, and feta with naan. Everything but especially that naan bread was very tasty. My daughter ordered the Turkey/avocado Sammy and ate every bite. I had the frittata and after the mezze I was not able to finish it but it was delicious. The restaurant is also very lovely and of course the garden is beautiful. Staff is great! Ask for Selinda, she's a sweetheart.

The fried tomatoes were met with a cornmeal fried crispy crunch and a juicy almost like it was marinated in lemon juice for a bit. The bacon was pretty good like a thick chunky sweet bacon strip. I personally like it a bit thinner and more crispy. I like that they offer orange juice and mango juice. My 2nd visit I knew better to get a reservation but it was completely booked when I looked to make a reservation the morning of. It was a Saturday morning. I walked in hoping anyways at 11am. They surprisingly had seats available outside this Texas summer lol. The meat pies were okay a little too greasy. I may be biased on Irish pub style meat pies. The nachos with boudin sauce and a lemon sour cream was out of this world with flavor. It what bean dip wishes it could be. I was so full I couldn't finish it, but I went for that dip.

    A Perfect Return to Where Our Forever Began My husband and I…read moregot married at Hotel Valencia one year ago, so getting to return this weekend to celebrate our first wedding anniversary was incredibly special. As part of our wedding package, they were incredibly generous and included two complimentary nights at the hotel and dinner at Dorrego's for us to celebrate. They are truly the absolute best at what they do and really know how to celebrate their guests! Returning to the very place where we said "I do" was already emotional enough, but Hotel Valencia somehow made the experience even more memorable than our first stay. From the moment we arrived, the staff was exactly as we remembered them: kind, attentive, professional, thoughtful, and genuinely wonderful. Our room was absolutely gorgeous, and when we walked in on our first day, we found the sweetest surprise waiting for us: a bottle of champagne, chocolate-covered strawberries, and a congratulations message written in chocolate on the plate. I actually teared up a little! It was such a thoughtful and adorable gesture that truly made us feel seen, celebrated, and cared for. There is something so special about Hotel Valencia. The environment is exceptional, the service is always outstanding, and even their gorgeous signature scent instantly brings us back to memories of love, celebration, and adventure. Every little detail feels intentional and memorable. I am so incredibly thankful that we chose Hotel Valencia as the place to celebrate both our wedding and our first anniversary. It will forever hold such a special place in our hearts, and we cannot wait to return again and make even more memories there. Thank you, Hotel Valencia, for helping make two of the most meaningful celebrations of our lives absolutely unforgettable!

    A Wonderful Stay at Hotel Valencia!…read more We absolutely loved our stay at Hotel Valencia on the San Antonio River Walk! The location is perfect step out the front door and you're right in downtown San Antonio. From the hotel restaurant, you can take the stairs or elevator directly down to the River Walk, which makes getting around so easy and convenient. What we especially loved is that this hotel has so much character and charm. It doesn't feel like one of those cookie-cutter chain hotels. We had a balcony, although it was simply too hot during our visit to sit outside and enjoy it. I'm sure it would be wonderful on a cooler evening! The bar and restaurant were both excellent, and the entire staff was friendly and welcoming. A special shout-out to the valet guys they provided wonderful service and were always so helpful. Great location, beautiful atmosphere, delicious food and drinks, and exceptional service. We would definitely stay here again when we're back in San Antonio!
