    Loaded Topo Chico

    No buffet today but just as well since we like the breakfast menu. Hubby loves their Mexican items, and the Lemon Blueberry Pancakes are divine. Again, Anthony waited on us and he is great. You can tell from the pictures that the view of the Riverwalk is a perfect way to start the day.

    Steak (well done), scrambled eggs
    Abigail G.

    The food here was amazing! This was my first time eating here and I would honesty come back. The steak and eggs were made perfectly. The beans were good as well. The service was great. The ambiance was beautiful and peaceful. Thank you staff for an amazing experience.

    Q Burger
    Smrithi S.

    Since we were staying at the hotel we decided to have dinner here. We got here for dinner close to 10pm and they were on the late night menu. We got the Q burger and Pappardelle with Chicken. Both items we got were a disappointment. The burger was dry and didn't have much flavor. Pappardelle didn't have much sauce on it, and what was there was bland.

    San Antonio Breakfast Skillet with side of bacon and blueberry-pork sausage

    If you are looking for an indoor breakfast spot and still want to get a little view of the riverwalk check out Q Kitchen. They also have plenty of TVs that are usually playing sports. I also heard some live acoustic music in the evenings. This morning I tried out the San Antonio Breakfast Skillet with a side of bacon and blueberry-pork sausage. It was more than plenty for one person that I needed a to-go box. The chorizo is flavorful and pairs well with the ranchero salsa. Definitely try the blueberry-pork sausage! It is delicious! I was a little hesitant because the word blueberry was throwing me off, but it was perfect. There is a little hint of maple syrup too and not too strong of a blueberry flavor. I also learned that if you want a coffee from the MKT. Place in the hotel you totally can add it to your order. I went with a lavender oat milk latte and it was divine. They provide friendly and prompt service with a smile!

    There was 4 others besides myself. I sat at the bar. I ordered a glass of pino grio and a crème brûlée. The bar tender disappeared, the pino wasn't good (sent it back when she returned). So I asked for my dessert to go b/c I'm tired. She immediately tells me no and "here is what you can take out" shoving another menu at me. I simply stated, " May I have a carry out container and I'll put it in that." Carolina was sooooo rude yall. Like if you don't like working with the public, choose another line of work. That's the post. If you stop in, let me know how it went.

    Located inside the Hyatt Regency River Walk Hotel, some co-workers and I stopped by after a long day of meetings. I ordered a bourbon to get started with a cocktail. For dinner, the kickin wings and Q Burger. The wings were well cooked in a house made buffalo sauce with a touch of spice. The burger was average size but pilled high with all the trimmings. Both very tasty. The staff was great and provided everything we needed. Slightly dimmed lighting, moderate crowd noise and a nice size bar. Prices a little higher than average but the food was good and service better.

    We stayed at the Hyatt for St Patrick's weekend and had our breakfast at Q kitchen since it was very convenient location . The first day we tried the buffet , it was kind of a disappointment, a lot of empty items and it took time to fill it up. I had to ask 2 different people just to get a coffee. I wish they had the coffee out so we can just do self service . The food was okay , my hubby mentioned the omelette was really good . The 2nd day we opted for Ala carte and the menu was very limited . We had a nice view of the green river walk so that was kind of nice , our server did not really check on us or ask if we need anything.

    Great late night find. Large portions, great service, delicious food. Glad everything else was closed. Will definitely go back when in area.

    Garden omelette
    Tamie F.

    Very convenient spot to grab a bite to eat when staying at the Hyatt Regency. Breakfast this morning was a nice and chill environment to enjoy my coffee and garden omelette. It was very good and I would definitely get that again. My wife decided to sleep in so I got the avocado toast for her to go. She was perfectly satisfied with it and would recommend.

    Had such an over the top breakfast here ! Highly recommend visiting their breakfast menu ! The egg white oven roasted breakfast with pesto !!! What a delightful combination of food with unique flavor. We had to then order the Huevos rancheros, ORDER NOW ! Made with brisket this one of a kind combo is a party in your belly ! The ambiance is nice and comfortable. This restaurant definitely has a one of a kind view from the inside top floor so You can see the river walk ! The service is one of a kind. We had such a wonderful time because of Anthony and Ashlee ! They make you feel like family and we had a delightful conversation and time because of them. Thank you Hyatt !

    Chowder soup
    Tara R.

    My husband and I stayed at the Hyatt Regency last week. We stopped in one evening to grab a drink and some food. I had a cup of the chowder soup which was delicious. My husband had the Q burger with truffle fries. He really enjoyed the burger. I can also say that the fries were delicious since I snagged some off of his plate. The bartender was super cool and attentive even though the bar was packed at the time of our visit.

    Avocado Toast
    Jung Y.

    Lovely breakfast experience at this restaurant during our stay at the Hyatt Regency. All of the food tasted delicious. We received complimentary mini chocolate croissants to start. Our entrees were yummy, and I loved my Avocado Toast. The Carved Fruit was truly an impressive plate, and all of the fruits were perfectly sweet! The service was wonderful as well with attentive staff.

    Eggs Benedict, Texas style
    Kayleigh T.

    We stayed at the Hyatt regency after a wedding, so on the way out we decided to pop into the restaurant and grab some grub before heading home. I wish I could remember our waiters name because he was so great, very personable and answered all of our questions about the area. I am an on call employee for Hyatt so I stay with them often, and I am always impressed with their service level. I ordered the eggs Benedict and they were served texas style. What that means for y'all that ain't from round here, the hollandaise gets all fancied up with jalapeño and instead of sausage you get slabs of thick cut bacon. Yee!Haw! If all of this sounds heavy, don't worry, the arugula salad was a nice refreshing side, so the dish wasn't too filling.

You can really tell they care about the food and the customers. Just a little heads up for anyone visiting: if you want to try their most popular items, definitely come earlier! We got there around 7 PM and they were already sold out of quite a few things, which honestly says a lot about how popular this place is. Even with some items gone, the food we did get was amazing and totally worth it. I'd 100% come back next time I'm in town!

The receptionist went over suggestions on the menu on her outdoor podium. Cornbread in the shape of Texas, shareable items like Dino ribs for $82, plus Pork Shank and ice tea completed our order. Everyone was very friendly. We had an exceptional view and we had more than enough food that we had to ask for take out boxes. My favorite was the Mac & cheese though I'm usually not a fan. This dish used cork screw shaped pasta and it was moist and not stuck together. I had to share a photo of it with Sweetie who is in Tokyo right now. Doc liked the pimento for the cornbread. As it was almost 9 pm we decided to pass on the boat ride but just walk on the other side with shops and more eateries. We're back on the road again tomorrow to Arizona.

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.

It came with 2 cakes. One was undercooked and one has a crispy crust. The undercooked one was my favorite. It is more moist with soft in the middle. Tuna Al Pastor has a kick but nothing special. Tres Leches was beautiful. 4/5. I like the fresh fruits to cut down the sweetness. The cake was a bit in the dense side. The icing on top was thick.

Drinks were AMAZING! Bartender Rob made the best Negroni I've ever had. I asked him to use whatever gin he thought best--result was an artistic smooooooth full-bodied drink. Told him when I was done I'd lick the glass if it wasn't considered so uncouth for a 'mature' lady like myself to do so Hubby's Buffalo Trace bourbon old fashioned was also outstanding. Rob was the bartender last night who did such a great job, and his work was even better tonight. We highly recommend The EsquireTavern for excellent cocktails. We love the long wood bar and high copper ceiling upstairs, but love the intimate speakeasy atmosphere downstairs even more. We'll definitely be back every time we're in San Antonio! First review, Friday night: Drinks were great (Manhattan and Bourbon Old Fashioned). REAL drinks, no complaints at all about those. And the bartenders were very friendly and helpful. Those aspects of the Esquire get 5+ stars from us. But the appetizers were not good, close to inedible. It was about 8:30pm or so, so maybe they were getting ready to close out the kitchen but the chalupitas with chicken tasted like rubber, and no flavor at all. The seafood platter had something in it that was breading with shell inside, but no meat of any kind. We couldn't figure out what it was supposed to be. The shrimp was good and the fish was good but those other things... We'll always love the drinks, the long wooden bar, and the ambiance at the Esquire Tavern, but we'll eat somewhere else and come here for before or after dinner drinks. (See update above to this review for when we returned the next night for after dinner drinks.)
