Land race can be a little hit or miss. Sometimes the food is great, and sometimes it is not. We come to The Thompson often, and we have a credit to use, so we often use it at Landrace. Customer service is good- and the drinks are very tasty.

Catch of the Day: Halibut
Pree R.

I was in San Antonio for the first week of December for the marathon, and came into the city Saturday evening. My boyfriend and I were trying to get to Pharm Table for dinner, but my car GPS brought us to this area of downtown instead, lol. Since we already paid $16 for parking (ugh), we decided to find someplace to eat near where we parked. When we tried to go to a nearby Mexican restaurant first, the concierge at that hotel recommended we go to Landrace at the Thompson. No doubt that the ambiance is very fancy and feels upscale, but the staff were very chill and it took no time to feel at ease. Unfortunately, there are not many vegetarian options, but the staff are accomodating and are able to customize items as needed. To start, we got the brussels sprouts. The first time around, they came with bacon so we sent them back, but they did not make a fuss about having to do that for us. My boyfriend had the catch of the day for his entree (halibut I believe?) which he enjoyed, and I was able to get a "fake bolognese" gnocchi dish made with mushroom and olive. The pasta itself was nothing special, but that was great in regards to eating a meal that would not give me tummy troubles for my race the next morning! Our dessert however was incredible. It was a "milk and cookies"-style dessert that came with two crisp chocolate cookies and a panna cotta style "milk" dessert. It was exquisite!

Chickpea and mushroom meatballs
Diana G.

I have been here before and the food and service has always been great. This time I came before a show at the Tobin center. It was around 5:30 PM and it wasn't too busy. We started with the chickpea and mushroom meatballs. I will have to say they had great flavor, but they were cold. Don't know if they were meant to be cold because some of them tasted slightly warm on the outside. I may be overreacting regarding the meatballs, but if they were going to microwave them, they should have left them in their long enough. For my meal, I ordered the Alaskan king salmon Cobb salad. It was a good portion. The smoke tomato dressing was just a little too overpowering for me, but overall the salad was great. The blue cheese complemented the dish and the salmon portion was a good size. My friend got the burger and fries. The burger was good. He added bacon. Service was good. You can make reservations online. Parking is available in their parking garage or street parking

Turducken and beef for Thanksgiving Day Brunch Buffet were a little overcooked
Altovise L.

This is such a sophisticated yet cozy restaurant. It fits perfectly with the Thompson Hotel that it is located inside.There is also complimentary valet parking when you eat there. They servers and valets are polite and provided good service. I didn't order from the regular menu but went on Thanksgiving Day for a special holiday brunch buffet. They had a nice selection of cheeses, breakfast items and lunch appetizers. The Bloody Mary that I ordered was quite good. The only thing is the Turducken and Roast beef were a little overcooked for my preference. I'd like to come back again during a normal evening for dinner. I want to believe the individual dishes will be much better than the meat that they served Thanksgiving Day.

Brunch

If you are looking for delicious and high quality bruch, Landrace is for you! Last weekend my friends and I decided to checkout Landrace for breakfast/brunch. I think most people associate the restaurant with steaks and dinner, but their brunch is out of this world. The menu itself is small but mighty with multiple options for everyone. For my first time I decided to go with the Brisket Benedict, which includes BBQ bearnaise, fried shallots and avocado. The eggs were cooked to PERFECTION! Eggs benedict can be a hit or miss at many other restaurants but Landrace nailed them! Also, the brisket was absolutely delicious and was not too sweet. The only thing I was not a super huge fan of was the bread they used, but regardless of that the eggs were probably one of the best I've had in a very long time. Last but not least, if you dine in at the restaurant you get 2hr of free parking at their valet.

My fiance and I went to Landrace for a date night in May - the ambiance was quiet and lovely and the service was efficient with a couple of hiccups, but the night went smoothly overall. We had the beef tartare to start with and later moved on to the Filet Mignon with a side of the chimichurri bearnaise and Homm Pomme Aligot, and the double cut Pork Chop with a side of the Brisket Mac n' Cheese. All of the dishes were quite delicious! Although it is definitely on the pricier side, the overall experience of dining at Landrace justifies the expense to some extent. When it comes to some of the cons, as I mentioned earlier there were a few irregularities with certain items being sent to our table twice or not at all but our server was able to deal with the snags quite professionally. The difference in the literal sizes of our mains was a little surprising and I wish we had been given some warning while placing our orders, but in the end it was a good experience altogether.

Croque madame
Vlad V.

I spent a weekend in San Antonio for Halloween. On Sunday, before heading back to Houston, we stopped by Landrace for brunch. We were excited to check it out as the chef is a James Beard finalist. Located in a hotel, while Landrace is on the River Walk, it's not in the super busy stretch of the River Walk. It's off of the beaten path a little bit. They have a nice little patio but since it was pretty hot, we decided to dine indoors. I went with the croque madame which is served with a fried egg and a side of fries. I've had quite a few croque madames in my life and this one was up there with the best. The sauce was oozing out of the sandwich. The bread was fresh. And the fried egg was a nice addition. The crispy fries also delivered. Service was standard. While many of the items on the menu were a bit pricey, the entree I had packed provided good value. Next time around, I'd love to check them out for dinner!

Isaac's Mighty Mushrooms

My tastebuds STILL crave this food after coming here for my birthday dinner. Everything, and I mean everything was SO amazing. When you first walk in, the smells and aesthetic of the restaurant give off cozy and intimate vibes. Which I think is fantastic for a hotel restaurant. There's so much to look at and that makes for great conversation. Both the hostess, server, drink server, and Chef were so welcoming. It truly was a great experience! I look forward to coming back again and trying out some new things.

I wanted to do something special for my birthday, and the Thompson came to mind. This fabulous high rise hotel is located right downtown and boasts beautiful art throughout. It is also the home of the rooftop lounge - Moon's Daughter and Landrace restaurant, which is where we had my birthday dinner! Sophisticated decor with low lighting and general lack of children set the stage for a perfect adult evening with my dear friends. Our server, Adam, was amazing! He was very knowledgeable, attentive, and prompt! The rest of the staff were wonderful as well - keeping our water glasses full and our table clean at all times! We tried a few appetizers and each had a different main course. We also sampled a few of their cocktails and got a complimentary ooye gooey nutty Texas fudge cake! I'll put the names of all the dishes under the pix! Everything was just fantastic and we had a great time! P.S. The hotel has valet parking, which is usually $30, but Landrace can validate it for you! But don't forget to bring some small bills to tip the valet staff as this hotel is cashless and we had the hardest time breaking a higher bill note.

The food was absolutely amazing the we had a huge range of food from stuffed zucchini to this amazing Prime Tib that just melted in your mouth like my good!!! Then they hand this yummy and I mean yummy pudding thing with a double chocolate chip cookie that was just absolutely delicious and then this watch chocolate Texas cake with pecans it's was so moist like I'm screaming just thinking about it!! The drinks were so tasty from the sangra to the margarita the waiters were so efficient and fast with the service. Very attentive and kind! The aura is definitely casual high end restaurant like you don't have to be super fancy but it's nice and cute for date night with a river walk view! I can't wait to go back but make sure you're wallets ready!

Delicious fresh food, nice rustic western ambience and great service. Mashed potatoes were heavenly, so smooth and so yummy. My friend had the filet mignon medium rare and said it cut like butter. Not noisy at all, very cozy atmosphere. Highly recommend!

Shaved Brussels sprouts salad
Sam O.

While looking for something different to try for my husband's birthday, I came across the L2 Chef's Counter experience at LandraceTx downtown at the Thompson. I made the reservation through their website and chose a 7pm seating with the 7-course menu. The menu is specially curated by the chef for your specific occasion with creative off-menu dishes prepared by Chef Omar. Being seated at the K-Bar (kitchen bar) allows you to see all the action in the kitchen- the regular restaurant fare and your own dishes, from preparation to plating, and the careful attention given to each plate. Alex, our server, took excellent care of us throughout the evening and made sure we had everything we needed at all times. Our courses were: 1. Arancini with Italian salsa verde 2. Butternut squash soup with brown butter poached lobster 3. Tuna tataki with XO sauce and gochujang aioli 4. Brussels sprouts salad with crushed Texas peanuts, dressed in a Dijon vinaigrette 5. Blue crab tacos- a take on surf & turf with Wagyu steak and oyster dressing 6. Lamb t-bone chops with tricolor carrot purée, black truffle 7. Apple hand pie (think "empanadas") with horchata ice cream and a bourbon cajeta drizzle Everything was absolutely delicious! A representative will contact you a few days before the reservation to discuss likes, dislikes, allergies, etc. The entire experience lasted just over 2 hours (maybe we're slow eaters?) and towards the end we had a really pleasant conversation with Chef Omar and got to know a little bit about him and his family (and where he likes to eat in his off time!). Your place setting includes a printed copy of your personalized menu if you want to have it as a keepsake. We would absolutely do this again and highly recommend this experience to anyone, both locals and visitors, looking to do something special and different. Keep in mind, each menu is unique so your menu may not look like ours, but it will be equally delicious, I'm sure! It was chilly and raining, so we used the valet service at the hotel- if you do this, don't forget to have your ticket validated by the restaurant for free valet parking, otherwise expect to pay $30. Thank you, Landrace and Chef Omar, for an exceptional evening!

Kimchi'd green apples (don't quite remember what this was)
Lydia N.

Pros: Beautiful intimate interior, great for a special occasion or nice date Really wonderful and terrific service Cons: Meh food All our food looked good but ultimately fell flat on delivery. Hush puppies were served with popcorn, which was a fun fancy finger food, but the popcorn was stale. The hush puppies were okay, crunchy on the outside, a little dry on the inside, but served piping hot from the fryer. Bone marrow toasts were impressive looking but a bit bland. The toasts they were served with had the texture of HEB's $1 French bread - fine crumb and a soft crust. The apple salad we had was nice and refreshing. Scallops were served with a tasty truffle orzo, but the scallops were unpleasantly chewy. My date had the pork chop, it was alright, but nothing special. Our server was fantastic and helped us through the menu and has great timing on checking in with us. It's a nice restaurant but after missing the mark on so many dishes I'd definitely go somewhere else first.

The fantastic table of comida!

It was clear we were in the right spot. The curtains were drawn when we arrived, creating a cozy, intimate atmosphere. Then, after the sun set over the Bexar County Courthouse, the curtains were opened and we were treated to a beautiful view of the River Walk. The timing couldn't have been more perfect -- it completely elevated the evening. Service was outstanding. Toryn was our server, and his approach was relaxed, friendly, and professional. He checked in periodically without ever being intrusive, and our water glasses were refilled constantly without us having to ask. The entire front-of-house team worked seamlessly together and made us feel genuinely taken care of. We also were given a lovely bread service. And the food -- absolutely delicious. The starters were phenomenal and set the tone for the meal. The meats were cooked perfectly -- flavorful, tender, and beautifully executed. Every course felt thoughtful and well-prepared. From the atmosphere to the service to the food, Biga on the Banks exceeded expectations. I would absolutely return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience on the River Walk. Five stars all the way.

Over-hyped, over-priced, unfriendly staff, watery drinks and terrible guacamole…read more My wife and I had a very bad experience while dining in this restaurant during the Fiesta San Antonio. Boudros was highly recommended by friends, and was the first restaurant on our list to dine in during our recent visit. We arrived at the restaurant on a Thursday around 7:45 pm and were told by a young Hostess that no walk-ins were allowed until after 9 pm. We decided to modify our itinerary and instead had dinner at a different restaurant on the riverwalk, and made a reservation for Boudros online for the following evening. When we arrived the following evening for our reservation at 7.30 pm, we were escorted to a small table in the bar that was next to the entrance to a small room. The area was noisy with a lot of foot traffic. We asked for a table in a quieter room and were moved to a room in the back of the restaurant where it was easier to have a conversation. A few minutes later our waiter, Stephen, approached the table. We asked him for drink recommendations and among others he recommended the "Prickly Pear Margarita". I ordered the Prickly Pear Margarita, and we also ordered the tableside Guacamole. The restaurant was busy, but there were several empty tables in our dining area. After about 15 to 20 minutes, the waiter brought our drinks. The Prickly Pear Margarita I received was not even close to the description on the menu. The ice was melted and it tasted like Fruit Punch with alcohol in a martini glass. A few minutes later, Stephen approached our table with the Guacamole cart. There were pieces of onions and cilantro all over the dirty table cloth on the cart. He prepared the Guacamole in front of us and it looked very unappealing. We watched as he added an excessive amount of diced onions and cilantro. Being a connoisseur of Guacamole, and making my own for most of my life, it was obvious that Stephen had not been trained well in how to make Guacamole. After he mixed the sliced avocados, the diced onions and cilantro, he wiped the edge of the stone tray with a dirty cloth. The onions and cilantro over powered the taste of the avocado. Later that evening, Stephen brought a very fancy drink for a customer sitting next to us. The drink looked like frozen lime juice with line of frozen strawberry and a nice scoop of frozen lime juice on top. I asked Stephen for the name of that drink, and he replied that it was the same drink that I had ordered. I asked why it looked so different and he muttered something about it being the end of the batch and then said "I'm not the Bartender". He blamed the Bartender for making the terrible drink, and made no effort to correct the problem. Later Stephen returned with our dinner, and as he approached our table, he ordered my wife to "move your glass!" Needless to say she was quite taken aback at his abrupt manner with no please or thank-you. In all the staff did not have a very good demeanor and were very sullen and grumpy. Even asking for directions to the bathroom barely elicited a glance and the needed information. Maybe the staff was overworked because of the number of visitors for the Fiesta, but the terrible, over-priced food, did not make up for the unhappy staff, and we do not plan to return.

Earlier in the day I took a walk through the King William neighborhood and stumbled on this beautiful old house with an inviting vibe. We were so glad we came back for dinner. We were a group of five with a reservation and from start to finish the experience was excellent. Our server, Raymond, was personable, friendly, and genuinely great at his job. He gave thoughtful recommendations and made the evening feel relaxed and welcoming. We started by sharing several dishes, all of which were spot on: Pears and Greens salad with lardons, frisée, arugula, radicchio, endive, Danish blue, and bacon vin - $16. Fresh, balanced, and perfect for sharing. Crispy Brussels Sprouts with maple, herbs, pecans, and cotija - $10. Crispy, flavorful, and addictive. Mac and Cheese - $12. Rich, comforting, and well executed. For mains, Raymond steered us in all the right directions: Mustard Glazed Faroe Island Salmon with warm fingerling potatoes, parsnips, mushrooms, frisée, and herb oil - $30. Beautifully cooked and flavorful. Tomatillo Shrimp with grilled Gulf shrimp, white cheddar grit cake, and tomatillo butter - $28. Bold and delicious. Loretta Burger with crispy prosciutto, manchego, arugula, tomato, grilled red onion, and smash sauce on a brioche bun. Choice of fries or tots - $18 (some had tots, and one had fries - tasty). Absolutely nailed it. Queso Fundido Burger with fried chorizo-queso blanco, charred poblano, and cactus salsa verde. Choice of fries or tots - $20. Indulgent in the best way. My dining companions enjoyed a variety of wonderfully prepared cocktails while I stuck with a Topo Chico. I still felt right at home. Overall, Bar Loretta felt like a world away from the tourist-heavy spots along the River Walk. Dining out has gotten so expensive lately and too often the food or service does not justify the price.
