New American Restaurants in San Antonio, TX

“Fabulous lunch! First time to Seasons 52 and was totally impressed. The ambiance, the staff, the vibe ....all 5 star. All menu items are 609 calories or less. Good came out piping hot. We had gnocchi and the vineyard chicken (their most requested menu item) Delicious!“

“Bartender Kendra needs a lesson in customer service. Had to track her to order anything. Mind you I was sitting at the bar lol. Looks like she was having a bad day or hates her job. Idk
Kansas City yard house sets the standards for that franchise. Do better San Antonio“

“The waitress Diana was friendly and very attentive. She brought out my food just like I ordered and made sure it was complete. I also enjoyed watching the big tv’s while I eat. Truly amazing.“

“I was lucky to be seated in Melanie’s section at Twin Peaks on Zabala Street. She was incredibly kind, attentive, and made us feel truly welcome. Excellent service — she did an amazing job!“

“Dinned there for the 1st time last night. Everything you should expect from a night out. Food Amazing. Atmosphere was perfect. The Staff is the best. Ashton is friendly, polite and just excellent.“

“As we are 18 year downtown residents, it's great when we find a new gem... and oh did we find a diamond last night! Tucked away in a small strip center, and some would say "it's on the other side of the railroad tracks" DON'T let that fool you! Definitely a cozy and smaller restaurant atmosphere and with a nice vibe. Thus make a reservation. Service - GREAT. We ordered two rounds of drinks and each time our waiter looked at the glasses before pouring and one time put a class aside. She was very knowledgeable about the food and wine. Food - 5 stars and elevation comes to mind. We had ZERO issues paying the price point due to the elevation of the meal. we ordered the mushroom risotto.I don't want to attempt to explain the flavors... just try it. we had been told that this was a new dish on the menu, and to give our feed back. here you go, "Don't change a thing"! Yes, that was my outside voice! Bread... why bother writing about bread? It's one of our vices in life. It was as good as any bread we have been served in the US and in Europe... yes Europe. We will be back, 4sure! Thank not for the medal, but the memory.“

“The atmosphere is cozy and the staff is friendly.

I tried The Orchard, and it was absolutely delicious. The smoked turkey with bacon and creamy brie was perfectly balanced by the crisp apples and fresh field greens. The Vermont dressing added just the right touch of sweetness and tang, all served on a soft roll that held everything together beautifully.

And don’t skip their homemade potato chips! They’re crispy, perfectly salted, and the ideal side to round out the meal. You can definitely tell they’re made in-house.

Picnikins is a solid lunch spot. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Great food, super friendly staff, really good bourbon selection and several delicious gluten-free options for my wife. This place has been in San Antonio since the 70's. Ryan was a great waiter.“

“jamin was our server this evening and our experience was amazing with him taking care of us! Gave great recommendations like one being the ribs (which were so good ) as well as the pork chop which was nice and tender. Thank you! (ceviche below)“

“Biga On The Banks In San Antonio Tx.“

“Ate at Twin Peaks today at SW Twin Peaks .. Elexis served me and never missed a step with drinks or asking about the food .. Her friendly smile and happy personality made me have a great day .. I will be back . By far the best in San Antonio .. She is 6 star service. Thank you and I will tell my friends to eat there... The best.“

“No matter what state I’m in, I always look for the nearest Yard House to visit. The food is consistently great, the beer selection never disappoints, and the service is reliably friendly. This location was no exception — everything came out fresh and flavorful, and the atmosphere was lively but comfortable. Always a solid choice.“

“An unforgettable anniversary dinner. The 7-course tasting menu with wine pairing was outstanding, each course creative, balanced, and perfectly paired. The service was impeccable throughout the evening. Eber took exceptional care of us, guiding us through each course and making the entire experience feel thoughtful and seamless. A beautiful evening we will always remember.“

“Qulture Club In San Antonio Tx.💯🙏❤️“

“amazingly delicious food as well as 5 star service“

“Boudro’s has the best Guacamole! They make it right at your table. It was so good, I had them make me a second batch to take home with me! They are right on the river walk and minutes from the shopping area. A must try!“

“On 02/09/2026, my wife and I dined at Signature in San Antonio, Texas. We were overwhelmed by the service and the menu. Our server Catherine guided us through all four courses. We were amazed by the freshness of all the ingredients and the presentation. The quail was exquisite. The beet salad was to die for, and the venison melted in your mouth. The fried oysters and crispy salmon were amazing. All the staff were very attentive, but I must give high praise to our server Catherine, who made our special evening even more special. Thank you, Catherine. We will be back in April.“

“Hands down what will be our best meal in San Antonio! The Brekky was to die for! Thank you. WELL worth the money! My only regret is that I did not take a picture to share.“

“We hosted a Celebration of Life at BJ's Brewhouse, Hwy 281 N. Could not have been more satisfied with the atmosphere, service, and especially the food. There were 80 of us with the Pizza and Salad Buffet. EVERYBODY there remarked how wonderful how wonderful the pizza and service were. I've heard terms like "never had pizza this good", "the service was excellent", "wonderful place." I highly recommend this particular location for events. EXCELLENT.“

“We were seated right on time w/our Open Table ressie--thanks OT. All three of us loved or salad and main courses. WE did not enjoy an approximately 30-minute wait form being seated/greeted by our Waiter and then having him take our order. Cappy's and their other restaurant Mama Mia's have a very high noise level in the main dining area.“

“The food is interesting, varied, and consistently good, with a rotating menu that keeps things fresh. We have visited twice. During our first visit, the service was good but felt like it was missing a final touch. At this price point, I expected a visit from the sommelier, especially since we were considering purchasing one or two bottles of wine. I was also not asked about any dietary restrictions.

Both times we were seated outside. On the first visit, it was surprising how little effort was made to mask the strip mall setting. On the second visit, the sun was directly in our faces. While that is not entirely the restaurant’s fault, the response was limited to offering an umbrella (which we had to request), and we were told indoor seating was not available.

They were also out of several menu items, which was unexpected given that our reservations were early in the evening. Additionally, this is not a kid-friendly establishment, which is worth noting depending on your plans.

Overall, while the food is good, I am unlikely to return. If I do, it would be for the desserts and the yams, which were excellent.“

“Bar Loretta In San Antonio Texas.💯🙏🇨🇱♥️“

“Everything I have ever tried at BJ's has always been delicious. You can't ever go wrong starting with an amazing craft cocktail and after an amazing meal, end with one of their sinful desserts. The staff will definitely take good care of you. So go out today and pay them a visit. It will be worth it.“

“We had brunch today, coffee was so good. Service, and menu selection was great. Our food was so delicious we highly recommend this place. We are from The RGV can't wait to go back and try their dinner.“

“We visited Outlaw Kitchen tonight for the first time & it was an amazing experience! From the staff to the wine to the food it was a fantastic dinner! Johanna was our waitress and she was so beautiful & lovely to speak with! The owners, Peggy & Paul, were gracious & felt like family. The chefs made meals that were top notch - can’t believe they haven’t received a Michelin Star yet! They will though, trust me! Outlaw Kitchen is a MUST dining experience!“

“Velvet Taco is not your average taco joint - it's a bold fusion of flavors wrapped in a tortilla. The tacos turn into a flavorful canvas bursting with flavors.

Shrimp Taco & Salmon Taco - 5 stars sooooo savory! Generous amount of shrimp and a generous portion of salmon.
Fish and chips Taco & Smashburger - 5 stars generous portion of fish. Smashburger was the favorite for the guys both wished they had gotten 2.
Steak taco and smashburger - The Distinct Palate Kid loved them!

The vibe is funky, casual, and energetic - perfect for a casual bite with the family or late-night bite. The bold personality can be found in the eclectic art and music in the background. The service was fast and friendly. The staff was helpful and accommodating with one of my custom orders.“

“I took my 3 daughters there and we each brought our fur baby. We sat on the patio and received the BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE I HAVE EVER HAD. The food was amazing and drinks were 🔥 . The staff at Hemisfair though were the absolute best!!! What an absolute Gem in San Antonio!!! Everything was absolutely AMAZING!!!! This will definitely be the first of many times we will visit.“

But it is paired quite well the flat bed is awesome prosciutto and balsamic is freaking good!!!I would recommend it. The salad I had I am trying to be healthy. lol but beer!! Hahaha well I tried . I will definitely bring my husband here he would love it! My daughter loved the flat bread it is awesome“

“After being seated staff forgot us. Needed to go to staff at front to request service , she was busy feeding the squirrels, she asked me who our server was, his name and what he looked like. Server was in a meeting and apparently no one else was available however restaurant clearly was not busy.“

“The waitress are always on top of things. Luv this place it’s my alone time on Sunday nights.“

“As soon as we arrived, we knew it be a pleasant experience. The staff was friendly, we got sat pretty quick and we didn't even have a reservation. I ordered a steak but I wish it came with two sides and not just one. My cousin ordered an hamburger, huge by the way! We got a complimentary carrot cake because our food took a while which by the way my cousin and I didn’t notice. It was delicious and we enjoyed it very much. Atmosphere is top notch in my opinion! We definitely going again!!“

“You can’t go wrong with anything you order here. Everything is delicious!“

“Delicious pizza and salad that was unique. The service and atmosphere were awesome!“

“Really enjoyed finding this lovely space to share a meal with family while visiting from out of town. The gluten-free options were amazing - I can't recommend the Apple Cinnamon Buckwheat Pancakes enough! Portion sizes were GENEROUS and it was all worth the wait. Thank you!“

“Ate breakfast here this morning. Extensive and healthy menu. Also accommodates food allergies. Dora (owner) and staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious! Will be back!!“

“I got an omelet which came with a side of potatoes. Both were really good. The plate came with a surprise side salad too, which unfortunately had a food I am allergic to. The waiter and kitchen quickly fixed that and brought me some fruit instead.“

“On 6/5 we had our wedding ceremony on Chunky's patio. The burgers were tasty, the staff was through the roof helpful. My sister brought cupcakes and the staff put them in the cooler until needed. I've never met a friendlier staff. They provided the dj who did a great job on quick need for ceremony until closing.“

“90 Proof Bar & Grill In San Antonio Texas.💯🙏“

“Some of the best barbacoa and tamales I’ve ever had. The flavors are authentic and consistently delicious every time I visit. I travel to San Antonio frequently and always make it a point to stop here. I just wish we had a place like this in Houston. Highly recommend if you’re in the area!“
