    Cocktail menu 5/1/26
    Mandelyn R.

    Beautifully decorated interior. The food was tasty! We got the "Arrechera" deal, which was basically high-quality beef fajitas. The cocktails were all very delicious. I tried a Matacanas drink & a Cola de Caballo. Great service too. I hope they get more business. They also have a kids playplace inside but I think it's only available on weekends.

    Delicious place to eat for any meal - we enjoyed brunch there. Delicious mimosa flight where you could choose from multiple juices. Homemade chips & table-side guacamole. Solid service and everything we had was delicious. Will visit again when I'm in the San Antonio area.

    Just wow

    Phenomenal experience! An authentic Nuevo Leon Asador serving up true Mexican flavors that is without a doubt San Antonio's best kept secret. Our table started with Short Ribs & Empalmes (Crispy oregano seasoned corn tortillas filled with refried beans, cheese, and chicharron prensado in salsa) We then ordered a 1/2 lb of three meats (Sirloin, Ribeye, Arrachera) and added Bacon Wrapped Jalapeños, Papas Adobadas, Guacamole, Cebolla Asada and Quesadillitas. This was the meal I've been missing in my life! Just perfection. Even our drinks were great. Our table of four left very full and happy. We also appreciated the warm service. Thank you to manager Regina and Chef Jose. You all really have something special. So happy I was able to visit this new location.

    Teníamos la idea que disfrutar una rica comida en este lugar pero no fue así ya que la carne vino bastante fría, esperamos mucho para recibirla y pensábamos que porque la estaban preparando fresca pero nos llevamos una decepción en la calidad, también siento que el lugar está sobre valorado para la cantidad que sirven, por el precio esperábamos recibir más calidad pero nos llevamos fue así, el hambre te agradable pero definitivamente no volvería

    Nutella something- not good
    Jerra P.

    We came for restaurant week and had the complete opposite experience than we had before. Waiter had no clue about the restaurant week menu. He did figure it out eventually and we ordered. My cauliflower appetizer came out first and was amazing as always. Then my husbands came- it was the queso- a hot pan with melted cheese, onions and Jalapeño. (It was delicious btw) We had no clue what we were supposed to eat it with. Since our waiter was busy catering to his large tabletop- we flagged down another employee who said we were supposed to have tortillas. By the time we received the tortillas, our meals came. Both the sirloin and the short ribs were wayyyy over salted but good. But since we still didn't see our waiter, we just ate it. Half way through the meal- my husbands onions came out. Ridiculous. Then came the desserts. OMG! And not in a good way. I felt like I had Covid all over again! Neither had any flavor. The pistachio dessert was basically the same thing my mom made in the 80s. Only this one had old canned chunks of pineapple and no flavor. The Nutella dessert had half of a rock hard cookie. I don't even know what flavor it was... I did eat the topping which was a cream cheese and flavorless Nutella mousse. But there was a faint hint of cream cheese so it was the better of the two. I still don't recommend it though. I was surprised to see our waiter since he spent 99% of his time at his large party and basically ignored his other 2-3 tables. He asked which dessert was our favorite and we both said neither- they were both bad. He said oh sorry and then asked if he could get us anything else. Hard pass. The bill came, we paid and drove home. I 100% do not recommend getting the restaurant week menu. It's a better deal to order everything separately. Although everything except for the desserts were good, the service was really really bad. I mean like really bad! I'm hoping tonight was a fluke but we won't be asking for that waiter anytime soon.

    Steak
    Carree W.

    Came for Father's day and they had a special on steaks which was great because my husband loves steaks! Our server was amazing! Ordered a few other things on the menu.. enjoyed the bone marrow, but it was too much for me since my husband and daughter didn't want to try it. The flautas were okay and the drink was strong! Lol. The place had soft dim lighting and it felt cozy.

    Street tacos
    Raquel

    The service was exceptional. The place is clean and seating area not crowded. Very clean. The menu has something for everyone. I had the street tacos. They were delicious. Be prepared to pay a higher price here. It's a nice place for a date. Good amount of parking and shares the strip with a meat market.

    Barbacoa
    Jason B.

    First time here. I had the barbacoa and it was very tasty. The meat was lean and not too greasy. Overall the food was good. The only gripe is that it doesn't come with anything like beans or rice. It was literally about 1/2lb of barbacoa and a few tortillas. It was enough food so no biggie but with the plates averaging about 25.00, I thought it was pricey for the quantity of food you get. I'd definitely go back but would try something else.

    Ruben was our delightful waiter, great food (never disappoints) and good company  Our third time here, Definitely returning

    This restaurant is authentic Mexican food, not TexMex, but food made as if you were in Mexico with the best products in town. From the owners to the waiters/waitresses to the bar tenders and the entertainment team, you get amazing service every single visit. My family and I love coming here specially Saturday nights and during different holidays. The ambiance is amazing and very family oriented. Thought it can be amazing for big parties as well. Highly recommended!

    La comida por alguna razón no está tan buena como el otro lugar. El servicio está bien. Tiene un lugar para que los niños jueguen. El ambiente Estaba solo el lugar con barra está bonito quizás por eso podría regresar. Pero si la comida me desilusióno ! Esperaba más de la carne y el sabor.

    Ribeye while we waited for her steak to come out. I did like this!
    Laine C.

    My girlfriend wanted to come here for her birthday without ever having it before. She loves Mexican steakhouses and we are frequent restaurant goers, so I agreed to check it out and try something new. To sum up the experience, by the end of the night, we are a having a redo birthday dinner. To start, there was one server on staff who was also working as the bartender. He was very sweet and personable, but he wasn't set up for success due to the lack of staffing. It felt that the ambience was very stale and low energy inside. We ordered the cauliflower and bone marrow as an appetizer- which I can make a better bone marrow at home for $15 at HEB. There wasn't any flavor or seasoning that stood out. The cauliflower was good, though. The second order of drinks took about 25-30 minutes and our steaks took 40+ (I wish I was exaggerating), which was shocking, considering nobody was there. When my girlfriend (the birthday girl) finally got her steak, it was overcooked to medium well when we ordered it rare. Mine was fine and it was good, but hers took an extra 15 minutes for it to come out the right way to only be subpar. They gave us a complimentary dessert which my dog would've loved. I only say that because the base of it seriously seemed like a dog treat with strawberries and creme on top. Being a frequent restaurant goer, I never expect things to be comped, but due to the ticket time and error of the steak, I do think they should've done SOMETHING with our ticket, but they didn't. Truly disappointed, because what we've seen on social media looks great.

    The experience - arrachera, sirloin, poppers, beans, guacamole, and papa
    Will D.

    I'm super excited that someone new is in this spot. I know this spot is kind of hidden away and you have to want to come over here to be over here. Well, this place is something to come for. Food was great. We did "the experience" and selected a bunch of things to add. The server was kind and helpful to walk us through it. Meat was good. I was very impressed by the sirloin. They had live music (we were there on a Friday), and that was fairly loud but we weren't screaming. And it was in "the lounge" so we weren't directly by it. We got margs which were pretty good. The frozen machine had just been finished, so I got one on the rocks and it was made well. Maybe a little syrupy, but not bad. The big one was pretty big. It's a steakhouse primarily, I'd say, so you're going to pay like a steakhouse, but we were expecting that. We'll def come back.

Both were very good. The avocado toast had a distinct lemon taste to it. The berry and goat cheese were excellent. The goat cheese, and the sweet berries made a great combination. For our main meals, we shared the eggs Benedict Trio, the Chilaquiles, the berry lemon croffle, and the banana foster French toast. The eggs Benedict Trio comes with a choice of three eggs Benedict from their menu. We had the original with Canadian bacon, the green chili pulled pork and the crabcake. Everyone loved the green chili pulled pork. The Chilaquiles came with your choice of red or green salsa. I chose the green one. It was a little spicy. It came with two eggs. I thought that it was missing some cheese. It could've also used a little bit more salsa. The banana foster French toast was to die for. Very good and definitely tastes like banana foster. The croffle was a great addition to our meal. We thought it was very good. Half of us had never had a croffle and now we are in love with them. They did give us a free desserts as we were celebrating my friend's birthday. For drinks I had the elderflower spritz. It's a little on the sweet side for me. The sangria was perfect. My friends had the bloody Mary and they liked them. They have inside and outside seating. They do take reservations. There's parking on site, but shared with the other businesses. The Waitress very nice. She was working the inside and the outside, But we never had an issue getting her attention or with any of our requests

But at my age anytime you are over ground is the best occasion. I have heard it is real fancy. And it is. Do not come in Crocs and sweatpants. This is not that restaurant. It is that restaurant where you should make reservations. It is also a place that emphasizes presentation and service. We came right when it opened and we informed the hostess of our reservations. We were seated in the bar area. Once inside I was struck by its ambience. It is sleek, dark and dare say "sexy." Our server, who was extremely attentive came to our table and took our drink orders. My partner ordered an Old Fashioned and me, a Lagunitas IPA. Whilst waiting for our drinks I looked over the room. One thing I noticed was a barrier that separated the bar area and the dining room. The Social Hour is meant, to socialize. I saw couples leaning into each other. Another group were drinking martinis with a seafood tower, almost touching the ceiling. Conversations were had. Romantic glances were exchanged. It isn't a casual place like Bubba's 33 nor Texas Roadhouse. It feels like a place best suited for a date night or an anniversary. I'm wondering how the dining room area is? The Social Hour does offer some drink and small bites specials. We ordered the kabob with pineapple, brussel sprouts, and sliders. They were all pretty great. It reminded me of the same experience as in partaking in tapas. I would remiss if I didn't relay our service here, it was excellent. Our server, Holiday(I hope I spelled it right.) treated us like we were the only patrons there. I've gone to upscale restaurants where staff looks at you up and down. Or they try to size you up. This is not that place. Which was so refreshing. If this place went above and beyond my expectations why didn't I give it four stars? In my opinion I think that a place that creates an upscale experience needs to have a few beers on tap. Even places like Wing Daddy's or Chili's offers a few beers on tap. Secondly, the bar area seating feels a bit tight. I wonder when the dinner crowd arrives would you be in the lap, of someone else's conversation? I still highly recommend this place. The Social Hour area is perfect for a date or an anniversary. The service and food were both excellent. And I've never been to a place where you are given warm hand towels. It reminded me of that scene with Adam Sandler in "The Wedding Singer" minus Billy Idol.
