    PESCADO Swordfish, Salsa Verde
    Matt L.

    I'm in San Antonio for a quick work trip and found Mezquite, so I had to give it a try. Located inside Pullman Market, this Michelin Bib Gourmand spot is known for its authentic Sonoran flavors, and it definitely lives up to the hype. Everything is made with fresh Texas ingredients, and you can taste the quality in every bite. The house made Sonoran wheat tortillas with beef tallow are worth stopping in for all by themselves. We started with the Ceviche Negro and Aguachile Verde. The yellowfin tuna was incredibly fresh, and the ceviche brought a nice kick of heat balanced with the charred fruit, cucumber, and peanut. The aguachile was bright, refreshing, and the perfect contrast to the ceviche. The Caramelo was another favorite. Carne asada, Oaxaca cheese, and salsa verde wrapped in one of those amazing tortillas. It's basically an elevated quesadilla, and I'd definitely order it again. For the main course, we shared the wood fired swordfish. It was cooked perfectly with just the right amount of char and served with salsa verde, rice, grilled onions, cabbage salad, and rajas con suero. Simple, fresh, and packed with flavor. I paired it all with the Carabuena Old Fashioned, and it was a great match for the meal. Service was great, the atmosphere was fun and every dish was exceptional, there wasn't a single miss. If you're in San Antonio, Mezquite is definitely worth checking out.

    Come on Mezquite do better. These margaritas are $14 and you don't even fill it to the top, not even if requested!

    The park was fantastic!  My favorite!

    Amazing! Highest rating! Wonderful! Wow! We had the Norteño menu (chefs choice) and everything... EVERYTHING... was soooooo good! Complex, layered flavors. Simply excellent! We will be back soon.

    I had quite a fun time coming here. The shrimp ceviche was fantastic. Had spice and loved the tortilla chips. The tortillas came with this amazing, warm, sweet butter. The tres leches was great with a sweet and sour topping. There was also a hummus and roasted mushroom dip my coworkers said was their favorite. I ordered a melon Marga on the menu that was quite delicious. Overall, had a fantastic time. Would definitely come back here again. They may not have ac it gets a bit toasty inside .

    Viva Mexico & some of the other tequila and mezcals on the bar.

    Beautiful restaurant and bar with an incredible atmosphere. This place is truly a marvel, it feels like you're dining at a chic restaurant in Mexico City, tucked away inside Pullman Market. The appetizers, entrées, and desserts are all delicious, but my favorite part is the bar. It looks as though it was carved out of clay and serves some of the most impressive cocktails in the city. Their extensive selection of mezcals and tequilas stays true to the restaurant's authentic concept and commitment to quality. I always choose Viva Mexico Tequila as the base for my cocktails and trust that whatever the bartenders create will be exceptional. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply stopping in for a cocktail, this spot delivers. I highly recommend Mezquite to both locals and visitors to San Antonio.

    Thick tostadas with fresh salsa

    We did the Norteno Menu for $55 per person where the chef chooses for us. We got the Shrimp "Cocktail" ceviche (shrimp, fermented tomato, chili oil, avocado, cucumber) to start served with tostadas and fresh salsa verde, which was served generously in a squeeze bottle that stayed at the table. The tostadas were thick and crispy, just like you want your chips to be, especially good for scooping up the ceviche dish. I loved this interpretation of ceviche and the funky cocktail sauce flavors. I just found this review in my drafts from October 2025, and while I don't remember every course in detail to do it justice, I remember everything being so great. I remember that we were also really impressed by the frijoles rancheros with chorizo and chile ash! It was our favorite side. The service was excellent and we loved the dim lights and casual elegance. We will definitely return, hopefully soon!

    So good, we came back two days later! For food, we had the Papas Flautas which were amazing! It came with three large flautas, perfectly crisp. The we tried the nachos with carne asada and nachos with carnitas. We honestly liked these both pretty equally, so you can't go wrong. For drinks, we ordered a standard spicy margarita. This tasted such fresh and not too sweet. The vibes here are great in the bar area. The bar itself has a cool design and next to the market shopping area.

    *Restaurant Week 2026 Lunch Experience* BLUF: Great food, fair value, rushed service. Restaurant Week Lunch is at Mezcalaria, their cantina, NOT Mezquite. The food was delicious, as I've come to expect from all of the Pullman Market dining options. The $25 per guest pre fixe offerings all begin with guacamole, paired with tostadas. The guac was fresh tasting, and paired well with the warm tostadas. For our entrees, we opted for the Carnitas and Barbacoa Tacos. The carnitas were adorned with onion, radish, cilantro, and queso fresco. They tasted great on their own, but even better with the addition of the salsa rojo and salsa verde provided. The barbacoa were adorned with guacamole, onion, and cilantro. The guacamole felt redundant given it was the same as the lone pre fixe appetizer option. To finish, a delicious piece of tres leches cake, dusted with cinnamon. Its taste was more reminiscent of horchata than other tres leches I've sampled, but delicious all the same. A lot of ambient construction type noises during our visit, seems like something you'd do earlier in the morning, later at night, or opt out of restaurant week for. Service felt lackluster and a bit rushed. We had a reservation, but there was no need. At 12pm on a Tuesday there was ample open seating at the bar and the tables within the cantina area. They ask for a payment card up front, which seemed tacky for table service in the cantina area, a practice I'm familiar with at bars and breweries, but not at places marketing themselves during restaurant week. Also, our dessert was brought to the table before we'd finished our first tacos, which made the experience feel rushed, the unencessity of which was exacerbated by the relative emptiness of the venue. Things worth knowing ahead of time: When I made a lunch reservation on OpenTable for Mezquite to try their 2026 Restaurant Week menu, I assumed I'd be offered the Mezquite menu listed on the San Antonio Restaurant Week website. Instead, you're limited to the Mezcalaria menu until the dinner service starts at 5pm. Not sure if the Mezcalaria menu remains available throughout the evening. In my opinion, Mezquite and Mezcalaria should be listed and treated as two separate venues. (There is an unclaimed listing for Mezcalaria with zero reviews on Yelp, so I'll post this there as well.) There's ample paid parking options at The Pearl, and a smaller lot adjacent to The Pullman Market that offers 2-hours free with a Pullman Market purchase.

    Guacamole

    I am sooo happy to report they have brought back their smaller bites! When they originally changed their menu to a more upscale experience my husband and friends I had gone to Mezquite with were so disappointed. But they brought back their street food type bites and it was delicious! My husband got the OG Burrito and he told me it was really good and flavorful. I had the mushroom caramelos and the mushrooms were amazing. The taste was really savory and they were a great texture. This is the dish I had originally when I first started coming to Mezquite and it remains one of my favorite plates at the Pearl. The only reason why I'm giving this place 4 stars is because the service was a little lacking. They could have just been understaffed for a holiday Monday shift. Overall I'd come back for lunch for sure, they also went back to a more classic guacamole recipe which is a big improvement from the guac we had previously.

    The team at Pullman Market's Mezquite prepares delicious and expertly presented dishes. This welcoming spot provides an alternative to San Antonio's Tex-Mex food scene with offerings inspired by the cuisine of Sonora, Mexico. The dishes are beef-centric mesquite-grilled, and exceptional. Simple, fresh ingredients... and the team is friendly, thoughtful and clearly cares about hospitality.... be sure to ask for Jose. Highly recommend... cheers!

    Brunch isn't as good as dinner : ( but the quesadillas are massive and great!!! They burnt our tortilla chips unfortunately. Service is super slow so make sure you make a reservation if you come here. Ambiance is absolutely gorgeous with the back drop being the market!

    Awesome brunch here! We made reservations online for a Sunday morning before leaving San Antonio. This restaurant is located in the Pullman Market. We checked in easily at the front and were seated right away. The restaurant is beautiful and has super high ceilings. It's very pleasant! Only complaint is that we were right next to all the plants so little fruit flies were all around our table. I ordered a mezcal margarita and would definitely get it again. I went with the huevos rancheros ($17), but it was tough choosing between all the delicious items on the menu. The huevos rancheros came with burnt ranchero salsa, cilantro, criolla, avocado, and black beans. OMG so good. I loved every single bite. My fiance got the breakfast tacos (3 for $16): chorizo, egg, salsa verde cremosa, and crema served with a side of breakfast potatoes. He loved it too! We especially loved the Sonoran wheat tortillas. Prices were really reasonable and the food was fresh and delicious. Service was not extra special or great, but was fine. We will definitely be back!

    DELICIOUS. The food was some of the best elevated Mexican food I've had in San Antonio. The vibe was expertly curated with beautiful low lighting and candles on the table. At one point in the night they even has a live mariachi band playing- can't get better than that! The tortillas that were served were the best tortillas I've ever had. Served with a side of butter and honey to dip making it a sweet treat. We paired the tortillas with the calabacitas (my 2nd favorite thing we ordered) which was messy but if everything can be eaten with a tortilla .. why not?! We also ordered the roasted beets and though my SO loved them I was meh on it. Though tasty I am not fond of mole. All in all I'd HIGHLY recommend this spot for locals and out of towners

    Otto's Ice House is a wonderful addition to the Pearl Brewery complex. It's a bit off the beaten…read morepath, just beyond the Pullman Market. The building is beautifully redone, maintaining the historic aesthetics of the original area. The bar area is beautiful with plenty of additional casual dining seating and they also have a spacious outdoor beer garden area. For my first visit, we stopped in after shopping just for a snack of appetizers and drinks. The queso and chips and fries that we ordered were flavorful, and the portions were very generous. Although their menu isn't very extensive, the sandwiches looked huge and very tasty. They offer beer on top, but we opted for mixed drinks that were great. The service was wonderful and I look forward to going back with an appetite to try more of their menu options.

    We stopped in for lunch after dropping in at the Pearl. Finding it was a bit difficult but if you…read morepark in the lot behind Pullman and take the bridge across the river, it is to your Left. You'll have to go to Newall street to find the entrance. There is no parking specifically for the restaurant. Now, the place is a bit small but the servers are nice and you can eat inside, outside or at the bar. They have a relatively small kitchen so the menu reflects that. We had the pretzel (4 short pretzel sticks), nachos, the smash burger and a grilled cheese sandwich for our Grand Daughter. Service was quick initially but they weren't great on refilling drinks. Food was all good and a reasonable value for the venue. I'd get the burger and nachos again. They are kid friendly during the day (it might be a different crowd at night), it is clean and not too noisy. Hopefully, people will find it and enjoy their food. I believe they are part of the Goode Co company out of Houston and sell their Pecan Pies as well.
