There was a sign to seat yourselves. OK. We sat down and the bartender brought us menus. Us and a group of three were the only customers. Brought us waters. While looking at the menu, a server comes over and asks if we wanted appetizers or go straight to order. Straight to order, please. The husband ordered the brisket pot roast. It came with asparagus and what he thinks was puréed squash. I had the pecan chicken. Panko breaded with pecans and a bourbon sauce. Maple and bourbon were the flavor elements. Came with baked Mac and cheese and sliced slightly charred carrots. This was really good, as was the husbands plate. Warm Sourdough bread and butter is served with the meal. We split a Caesar salad. The salad was OK, the dressing was a little tart and served on the side. I'm taking a slice of chocolate cake to go. As I peek into the bag, it is a generous slice with strawberries and a dollop of whipped cream. Stay tuned. The restaurant is part of the Hillside Resort. Looks like a bunch of rooms. When we were about to leave a group of women came in and sat at the bar. I told the bartender we'd heard about them through Texas Eats. He said 'are they still showing that? That was about six chefs ago!' All righty then. I'd say it's worth a trip to try.

Reservations were made ahead of time for 4 and upon arrival we were were seated right next to the large open windows. Ordered the Berry Patch cocktail- nice and refreshing with a splash of mint leaves. Menu wasn't overwhelming and had a nice assortment of dishes. Starters ordered - pork belly bites and fried Brussels sprouts. Both highly recommend! Dishes ordered- salmon, pork chop, pot roast, and steak. Pork chop and steak were not dry, but juicy with lots of flavor. I loved pot roast growing up , so I had to order it here. Although tasty, texture was a little chewy and tough. Also would have enjoyed a little more helping of vegetable/potato purée underneath the roast. The salmon dish looked fabulous, but was slightly salty. The sweet bun that accompanied each dish were delicious! Service was good. I'd come back to try the pork chop next time around.

We finally stopped for lunch after driving by so many times. So glad we did. Up on the hill…read morebefore going down into Castroville on the Hondo side. Nice bar and tables inside. Also outdoor seating. A couple of TVs for sports. A very nice bartender who makes delicious margaritas. Lots of daily specials and happy hour options. Overall great prices. I had a Monday special $3 margarita and everyday burger lunch special that was $9.99 for a huge delicious cheese burger, fries and an ice tea. Nice grilled bun, lettuce tomato pickles and purple onion. I ate the whole thing! The wife had the grilled cheese with carnitas, fries and tea for $10.99. She loved it. She wants to come back on a Thursday for the wing special. We will be coming back for more!! I think there is also a location in San Antonio. But hey, Castroville is pretty much SA now. Best burger I have had in a long while.

The vibe is chill, the crowd is friendly, and it feels like one of those spots where everybody either knows each other--or will by the end of the night. If you're looking for flashy, this isn't it. But if you want good energy, solid drinks, and a place to unwind? You're in the right place.

We had never been here before and decided to give it a try after we saw a lot of great reviews…read moreabout it. The place is a small local bar style restaurant and when we told them it was our first time they explained that we could look over the menu, order at the bar, and then get a buzzer and where to pick it up when it was ready. The place was packed but we got our food very quickly and it was delicious!! The fries were crispy and seasoned and the carnita grilled cheese had a LOT of meat and was a pleasant surprise. The cheeseburger was simple and delicious as well and the bacon was crispy and flavorful. This place is a hidden gem that's apparently very popular amongst the locals and I can see why. It's one of the best meals I've had in a while from a restaurant!

The tour was very interesting and really enjoyed learning the history of the Distillery. We then sat to try out some Gin, rum, vodka, whisky and bourbon. All were excellent and very unique in taste.

Next time we are in San Antonio area, we will definitely be stopping back in to Maverick and so what else they have to offer.

Definitely the place to go if you want excellent food & don't want drive in San Antonio! Every time I go, I tell myself that I need go more often. My belly is nice & full. Very happy with my overall experience! It's a nice little restaurant, has that small town vibe but still has stellar food.
