Michelada
Amy C.

Anita was our server and she was so attentive and so polite. I wish I asked for the bartenders name because he was great at his job! We had a large party of about 17 people and we were taken well care of. The ostiones (oysters) preparados were beyond words. Seriously the best food item we have had in years, period. Me and my husband ordered a molcajete in a house salsa and it was incredible and more than enough for two people. Everyone really annoyed their meal. I can definitely see why they have an extremely good rating. I'm glad we stopped by and will definitely be coming again in the future. It's also such a cute establishment with papel picado everywhere and the music was also 10/10. If you love fresh seafood this is definitely the place to come. If you don't, come anyways the tortas and tacos were also delicious we were told by our party. Oh! Almost forgot to praise the drinks. The michelada is sooooo good! I'm gonna edit my comment to laugh at the reviews about their fried food. It's a MARISCOS restaurant. It's like us going into Wingstop and saying we only like boiled wings.

Vi que es un restaurante nuevo y decidimos venir a probar! La comida está deliciosa y las margaritas también ! no había mucha gente pero está todo súper ! Pedí el ceviche tropical y mi papá una tostada de la casa , ambas DELICIOSAS y muy bien servidas. también pedí una margarita top shelf y soy súper picky con las bebidas pero está estuvo mejor que muchas que e probado en restaurantes más caros. Definitivamente recomiendo este lugar por el excelente servicio y delicioso sabor . planeamos en regresar !

I was looking for a pleasant place to take my mother as she wanted catfish and saw the photos of…read morethe food. When I came up to the place it wasn't a sit down place to eat, but that you have to order which was confusing as there were a lot of other restaurants within the small space. There was a guy there that was picking up wing and he stated that they were the best and big pieces. So he showed me how to order. And I place my order as it was Wednesday dollar day for wings so I order wings. I had the parmesan garlic, lemon pepper. Let me tell you they were so good, the wait was too long but worth the wait. It best to order online then go pick up. The restroom were locked so that is why I gave 4 and we weren't able to speak with no one. If you need any special thing or extras please write it I. The space provided because they don't give you anything but what you order no napkin just nothing else. Enjoy and hope the you didn't forget to order anything special or extra as you won't get it.

A true gem! This is…read moremy fourth time eating here and each time they knock it out of the park! Whenever I'm in San Antonio, I have to eat here. The texture of fish is crunchy on the outside with a flaky, meaty texture on the inside . The wings are fried in a way that's just right. They are crunchy and the sauce adheres so well without making them soggy. The green beans, red beans, and wedges are great options for sides to accompany the fish and wings. It was my first time ordering from a place with this type of setup. It was so cool! I scanned my order on an iPad and open pops a locker door with my food. If you're in the mood for fried fish and wings...this place does not miss.

First time, Went on Saturday before 6pm, no reservations needed. restaurant was full so they sat…read more us in the bar next door for over flow. The waitress was not well informed about food. I was so delighted with the amazing appetizers, however the main entree was average. My cucumber martini was really good but they didn't fill glass. I probably would return for the appetizers and drinks and maybe try and listen to the music that didn't start till 8pm.

I've never had a worse or more unorganized dining experience…read more We were seated at 8:15 PM and placed our orders. Most of our table ordered from the restaurant week menu, which includes an appetizer, entrée, and dessert. It took about 30 minutes just to get our drinks, and the appetizers didn't come out until around 9:30. I was the only person at our table who never received my appetizer. While waiting, I asked for utensils so I could at least try some of everyone else's appetizers. We were a table of four and were given only two sets of utensils because they had apparently run out of them. The waitress later came back with more forks. About 10 minutes later, another waitress came by with my dessert. I had to stop her and explain that I hadn't even received my appetizer or entrée yet. She took the dessert back to the kitchen. A few minutes later, everyone's entrées came out--except mine. I still hadn't received my appetizer. At that point, I told our waitress I wanted to cancel my entire order. Her response was, "Yeah, I was going to ask you that because the kitchen just asked me what you ordered." No apology, no explanation, nothing. I had already ordered two drinks, so she said she would ask the manager about compensating them. A few minutes later, my appetizer finally came out. I reminded her that I had canceled my order, and she said she knew but that I could still have it at no charge, so I accepted it. I was told the manager could only offer 50% off my drinks, which I reluctantly accepted. The manager never came over to speak with us. When the check came, I was charged $25 for the appetizer--even though I had canceled my entire food order before it was brought out and had been told I could have it at no charge. My drinks were also fully comped instead of receiving the 50% discount we had discussed. This meant they tried to charge me more than they should have: the $25 appetizer was added to the bill, while the agreed-upon discount on my drinks was not applied. If they had simply honored the arrangement, I would have owed only $13, but they instead tried to charge me for the canceled food. When I pointed this out, the waitress seemed irritated, told me not to worry about it, and moved on to collecting payment from the rest of the table. We didn't end up leaving until 10:40 PM, meaning it took 2.5 hours to serve us. At no point did anyone genuinely apologize or explain what happened. Mistakes happen, but the complete lack of communication, organization, and customer service made this experience incredibly frustrating. Unfortunately, the entire dinner was pretty tainted by the time the food finally came around. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone.

It's a fairly small-medium-size dining room so it can get a bit loud. The food was great. It did take some time to come out but overall the flavor was great on everything. Really enjoyed the appetizers of the blue Fran dip and old bay redfish bites. The redfish and shrimp plate with crawfish dirty rice had a good bit of heat/spice but very flavor forward.

My server Paul was super friendly and very attentive, I never had to ask for anything! The dining area is spacious, there are tvs above the bar, the volume of the place was a bit loud but didn't bother me. The salmon dish I had was absolutely divine. The salmon was cooked perfectly, the spinach was fresh and not over cooked and the mashed potatoes were fluffy and delicious. I visited around 4pm and there was already a nice crowd, but there wasn't a wait. I see this is place having a wait in the evening though. The tables can be expanded so this is a good place for groups as well! The kitchen manager even came out to ask me how my visit was and that really tells you a lot about this place. They really want to make sure you enjoy your time. The prices may be on the high side for some but I believe the quality of the food and the service merits the price. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit and will definitely be back!

I went to see where he gave high marks in San Antonio. Cappy's was in his recent review list and only a 16 minute drive from our hotel on the river walk. My husband ordered the old fashioned that he enjoyed very much. I had SPANISH TONIC mocktail (chamomile, juniper, pink peppercorn, mint and lemon) it was lovely. We also had the shrimp and Brussels. OH my was it delicious. It's was a generous portion and I thought we'd not finish it, but we did. The use of chilli oil didn't make it too hot, but perfect. The shrimp were so light and perfectly fried. I ordered the mustang chicken. Wow was it delicious. The vegetables were perfectly roasted. I gave my husband the mushrooms but I ate the okra, carrots, zucchini and it was excellent. The chicken was soooo very tender and so flavorful! The mashed potatoes were heavenly! My husband had the Beef Tenderloin. It was perfectly prepared to his medium rare request. He enjoyed it very much. He also liked very much my chicken! He liked the fingerlings, but had more of my mashed potatoes ! These are not normal mashed. They truly are extraordinary! Mallory the manager came by to see how we were enjoying it. I explained how I found it and it was our first time. She offered a first timers dessert. I didn't think we'd have room, but we managed and had the Sticky Pudding. An absolute Perfect way to w d a perfect meal! Well done team! Have already told the hotel staff they need to go there and recommend yo people who want a wonderful meal!!! Hope to come again next time we visit San Antonio!!!

When I visited Cappy's for brunch it was a beautiful morning to sit outside…read more I ordered a blueberry mimosa along with the Homard (truffled scrambled eggs, lump crab, and butter-poached cold-water lobster tail). Unfortunately, the dish fell short, especially given the description and price point. I couldn't detect any truffle flavor at all, and the scrambled eggs were disappointing. They lacked the light, fluffy texture one would expect at a restaurant of this caliber. There was a generous amount of crab, and the lobster tail was cooked well, but the overall dish didn't come together. The pastry basket was the highlight. Everything was warm, fresh, and tasted freshly baked. The strawberry butter, however, was underwhelming. It lacked the richness of butter as well as any noticeable strawberry taste. Given this restaurant's reputation I look forward to coming back and giving it another try.

Ma Parker prides herself on family, giving people second chances and a decent meal for a reasonable price. Everyone who came in for lunch paid Ma Harper respect and was treated like family. The decor is die-hard NOLA with tons of memorabilia. The booths and chairs are old but the food is made with pride and love. The fried shrimp po-boy, fully dressed on a perfect NOLA roll was a must try. A small side of red beans and rice was also included. The sandwich was packed with crispy fried shrimp, but the normal remoulade sauce was replaced with ketchup / mayo mixture, not savory. The red beans and rice were fine but lacked real flavor. I am glad I gave Ma Harper's Creole Kitchen a chance. Many of the frequent flyers here, obviously love this neighborhood staple. Ma Harper's has a big heart and I wish her continued success. Dining here is more than food, it can also be about love and feeding people. Thanks Ma Harper for a memorable experience.
