Restaurants in Universal City

“Supporting small family owned businesses is one of my favorite things to do, and Big Aloha's Ali'i Cove absolutely delivered! We recently used their catering menu for a special gathering, and from start to finish, the customer service was phenomenal. They even worked with our Sunday event date to make everything happen. The food was fresh, authentic, and delicious so much so the teri beef, fried noodles, mochiko chicken, mac salad, and cupcakes disappeared fast. Unfortunately, the only pictures I managed to take were of the cupcakes because everyone was too busy enjoying the food. That's probably the best compliment a caterer can receive! If you're looking to add something different, flavorful, and authentic to your table, I highly recommend giving them a try. It's always rewarding to support a local family business that takes such pride in what they do. You'll find them right here in Universal City off Pat Booker Road. Let's continue supporting the small businesses that help make our community special. Mahalo Big Aloha's Ali'i Cove 🌺”

“We had an early dinner this afternoon. The food was fabulous. We had the shrimp and catfish. The food was exceptionally fresh, the batter they use is wonderful and the coleslaw is about the best I’ve eaten in my 74 years. The food was hot and served quickly and the waitstaff is phenomenal. The place is clean and everyone was so gracious. Highly recommend!!”

“Exactly what a brewery should be. Great beer, quality food, with a welcoming open taproom and friendly staff. An instant favorite for me.”

“Consistently delicious and fresh”

“Everything was amazing from start to finish! Bella Sera on Pat Booker is an absolute gem. From the moment we sat down, we were impressed. The garlic knots came out warm and flavorful, perfectly setting the tone. The soup was rich and comforting, and the Caesar salad was crisp and fresh with just the right amount of dressing. I had the baked ziti for my entrée, and it was everything you want in classic Italian comfort food, cheesy, saucy, and satisfying. And to top it all off, the cannoli was perfection: crisp shell, creamy filling, just sweet enough. It was a wonderful combination of flavors and portions were so generous I had plenty to take home. Highly recommend, can’t wait to go back!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Go Vegan San Antonio is an absolute gem! The food is fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with love. Every dish I’ve tried has been packed with delicious, well-balanced flavors that make you forget you’re even eating vegan—it’s just good food, period. The staff is warm, welcoming, and happy to answer questions or make recommendations, which really adds to the experience. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting, making it a perfect spot for both a quick bite or a leisurely meal. Whether you’re a long-time vegan, trying plant-based for the first time, or just someone who appreciates tasty, wholesome food, this place is a must-visit in San Antonio!”

“We loved the environment (cultural music, art and videos), the service and the food!! We ordered the combination fried rice of chicken and tofu with the spicy sauce on the side. Also ordered the Ban Chay, the vegetarian vermicelli soup in Thai broth. To drink we ordered two black boba teas, one mango and the other jasmine milk tea. And let me say the quality of the flavor and the freshness of the chicken and vegetables will have us going back to try more of the menu😍😍🙏🙏🙏 Thank y'all 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”

The owners go above and beyond to make you feel at home, and it truly shows. It’s rare to find a place that combines great food with such a warm, personal touch. A hidden gem in Universal City.”
