    So good!! One of my favorite Thai spots in San Antonio! It's hard to find places in town that branch out, but Sip Saam has so many options that wouldn't be served at other Thai spots in town.

    Actually the best Thai I've ever had! So upscale with their food with very reasonable prices. The restaurant is off the beaten path. Nothing special to look at but clean. Service was friendly and fast.

    Massaman curry with beef and shrimp
    Marc T.

    Stayed close by for business. When did sushi, but really no sushi places downtown. Settled here and was pleasantly surprised. Nice staff, plenty of seating, and great experience. Had the pad Thai chicken and massaman curry. Both were extremely tasty and had the perfect heat as we requested. We definitely come back again.

    I wanted to like this place more than I did, but the food itself is mediocre and overpriced. I went for lunch and got the drunken noodles, which comes as a combo with soup and one crab rangoon. The drunken noodles were pretty dry and one-dimensional tasting (almost like only soy sauce was used). The noodles themselves had a great texture. I also loved the soup, which reminded me of a hot and sour soup but a savory version without the hot and sour components. The moo ping was tasty but the meat did not have much char--it seemed like it was cooked steaming in sauce. The mango sticky rice was definitely the star, close to perfection. The mango was super sweet and juicy and the rice had just the right amount of coconut flavor. Service was friendly and fast. And everything was very nice decor-wise. The plates and interior matches the pricing of the menu.

    Eggplant with tofu dish
    Kim K.

    Sip saam thai was a mid experience. The eggplant dish with rice was supposed to be mild spice level and came with zero flavor. The friend rice with chicken was bland and didn't have much chicken. Chicken massaman curry was ok. Water is brought via a pitcher and glasses for you to self pour. We had to ask for more water. When I asked for some sauces to spice up my dish it took some time. Entrees were overpriced. It was conveniently located.

    First meal in San Antonio was here. A great spot about 14 minutes walk from the convention center. Walked in for lunch and I got the red curry beef special. Service was friendly. The meal was flavorful and perfect proportion for lunch. Nice spot with ample seating. I'm

    Pad Thai

    The food was superb. We got their spring rolls with tofu and even my 2 year old liked them. We each got a lunch special pad Thai. It came with delicious soup and a crab Rangoon. Probably the best crab Rangoon I've ever had. Everything was so fresh. Service was superb. Very clean and relaxing. Stop here for good food and good service. I want to try the fried banana next time!

    Seafood yellow curry
    Anastasia V.

    The food at Sip Saam Thai was very good! The moo ping and pad see ew were so delicious and portions were a good size. Next time, I'd skip the drunken noodles since the flavor was a bit meh. My friend really liked the red curry with seafood and finished the whole plate. The restaurant was clean and staff was attentive and nice. If I'm in the mood for Thai food when visiting San Antonio again, I would go definitely go back to eat here.

    Salt & Pepper Shrimp perfection
    Marcos D.

    Exquisite in every aspect, sumptuous Thai food that is not the typical Thai joint. The Spring Rolls were the best I've had, the Curry Lamb Shank amazing, the Salt & Pepper Shrimp is perfection. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and the service is so friendly and attentive. My new downtown favorite!

    Hot sauce flight
    Marian G.

    The restaurant is average size with quiet music playing. Service is fast and the staff is professional and friendly. The food is absolutely delicious. I had pad woon sen and hubby had Thai pork spare ribs. They were so good but we will each try another dish when we come back.

    pad thai
    Amanda L.

    Pad thai not my favorite, but pad se ew was solid as well as the thai fried rice. The people here are very very nice. I would get the pad se ew and fried rice again but nothing else. Spice is 1-10 but you can add more spice later. Thai tea looked really good so maybe I'll try that next time.

    Crispy Spare ribs
    Ed K.

    Food here is awesome. We had the Crispy Garlic Spare Ribs and the Green Curry Beef. Both are must have. The ribs were made to perfection. Nice and crispy and meat just comes right off. Very favorable. I ordered medium spicy curry. It was just perfect. Anymore or any less would have ruined it. Just enough spice to give it that kick you needed. The service was great as our waitress was very attentive. The place is nice inside. Clean and nicely setup. Will definitely be back when we are in San Antonio.

Birthdays, random cravings, "we survived the week" dinners & you name it, we've probably celebrated it here. The vibe is casual, fun, and laid-back, which is exactly what you want when you're about to put on a bib and commit to a seafood boil. And yes, that is exactly what you should do here because the boils never miss. The seafood is always fresh, the sauces are flavorful, and the spice levels are not playing around. My recommendation? Stick with level 2 unless you enjoy sweating through your meal and reevaluating your life choices. My go-to combo is mussels, shrimp, crab legs, potatoes, boiled egg, and veggies. And before anybody gets suspicious about the veggies in a seafood boil, hear me out, they absolutely belong there. They soak up all that buttery, spicy sauce and add something extra to the whole experience. Don't skip them. Also, get the flights. They're fun, they're good, and they make an already good time even better. Smashin Crab is one of those places we keep coming back to because it's reliable in the best way: good seafood, great flavor, and the kind of meal that feels like an event every time.

The Marriott Tribute Portfolio property sits along a quieter stretch of the River Walk between Pearl and downtown, with sleek interiors, an outdoor fireplace lounge, lush greenery and a river-facing patio. Ducks, joggers, people-watching and glowing hanging lights after sunset make it feel like a little hotel holiday without leaving the city. Service has always been friendly and accommodating to our preferences, and the menu is surprisingly robust with New Orleans-inspired Cajun and seafood flavors alongside steaks, pasta, duck, lamb and Southern comfort dishes. Our repeat fave is the fried calamari -- crispy, savory and brightened up with jalapeños, chile flakes, sauce and grilled lemon. The beau keeps raving about the Diablo pasta. The catfish nuggets were a bit drier for us, but a side of the marina sauce brought them right back to life along with tartar sauce. For next time: frog legs and alligator appetizers on the menu! One of our serendipitous moments was walking along and were spotted by friends already seated here, waving us over from across the River Walk to join them. That pretty much sums up the charm -- scenic, easygoing and social. Great for daily happy hour, al fresco dining or a relaxed stop between Pearl and downtown when you want the River Walk experience with calmer space.

I called ahead of time asking if they had availability for 6 guests at around 6 PM and they said that it shouldn't be a problem, but they can't guarantee that we'd be seated right away... sold! We arrived and while the set up the table, Charlene welcomed us to hang out at the bar. We were then greeted by Ben, who we came to find out was one of the owners of the restaurant. He spoke with us briefly as our table was being set up, welcoming us in. Within 3 minutes of coming in, they set up a table for us in the corner of the restaurant and had us seated. The place is small (not tiny) and even on a Wednesday at 6 PM, it was clearly a popular spot... we would continue to find out why that was the case. Forgive me, as I cannot remember our waitresses' name, but she was great. She handed us our menus and let us be as we needed a moment to make our decisions. The front of the menu tells the humble story of how the restaurant came to be - definitely worth a read while you are waiting. Our waitress came back and took our drink and food orders. At the same time, I asked if she could have Ben come over as we wanted to hear more about his story after reading the brief story on the front of the menu. He came over and talked to us for ~5 minutes telling us about how he ended up in the States after leaving his home and how the restaurant came to be - from that alone, my experience had already been elevated and I was even more excited for the remainder of the experience to come. The drinks arrived, followed by the food, which we ordered (mostly) solely on Ben's recommendations. Everything looked delicious and as we were told by Ben, it was all fresh, purchased that day from the market and cooked to order. We started with the fried mozzarella, which was unique to me, in that it had no marinara but instead, spicy honey and sesame seeds and was fried in beef tallow - it was great. I ordered the Chicken Parm, which had fresh mozzarella poured into it at the table - the mozzarella smelled (and tasted) AMAZING. The dish has select bites throughout it that had some spice to it - I'd say that the spice level was about a 3/10, coming from someone who doesn't have the highest spice tolerance. The flavor/satisfaction level? 10/10. Typically, I'm not a dessert guy, but because of how good the experience was up to this point, I had to indulge. I ordered the crème brûlée and was not disappointed. Good temperature, good, mild flavor and presentation. This experience was excellent. From the unsuspecting setting, the greeting, the noise level in the restaurant, the attentiveness of the servers, the presentation and flavor of the food, to the staff asking how everything was and holding the door for us as we left, this is an exemplary example of how hospitality/service should be done. Ben, hopefully you are extremely proud of the team you have put together and the establishment you have made over the past two years. Very well done and thank you for your hospitality. If we are ever in town again, this will DEFINITELY be a stop that we make. Cheers.
