Food is absolutely good! Ambiance was good and service was good. Great wine selection. Highly recommend

What a delight this restaurant is! We ate here after a 10 hour drive and it was perfect! The excellent service, view from our table, and quiet jazz playing over the speakers instantly relaxed us and lifted our spirits. Everything we ordered from the wine to main entree was succulent!!! I definitely recommend dinner here. What a treat! read more

I came into this establishment last weekend with another party for some dinner on the water. The restaurant is a former clubhouse for residential condos/apartments across the street. Therefore, when guests walk inside, they will notice how quaint the establishment is as well as the gated pool that is adjacent to the restaurant. Without further ado, here we go... Tuna Tostadas This starter was a mix of ahi sushi-grade tuna with onions, spices, fresh avocado, and wasabi aioli for a flavor profile that is light yet punchy. Aside from the ahi being at the height of freshness on this dish, the avocado added the perfect amount of creaminess to these tostadas. French Onion Soup Yikes, while I enjoy a good French onion soup, my soup was salty, and the cheese was "off." This is unfortunate as this is such a simple soup to make. I sent this menu item back. Perhaps for ya'll who go to the restaurant after me and give it a try, you can DM me and let me know what ya'll think. Sound like a plan? Seafood Pasta This Creole Shrimp Pasta is accompanied by a creamy sauce and is further layered with aromatic onions, garlic, salt, pepper, basil, and a splash of lime juice. The sauce is spicy, creamy, and garlicky, with a pop of freshness. It's a hypnotic blend that will have you savoring each rewardingly complex bite. The pop of cherry tomatoes in the dish gives it a subtle hit of acid to balance out the heavy cream from the sauce. This entree is made with simple fresh ingredients and is ideal for those who enjoy a seafood (shrimp and clams) dish that pays homage to our French next-door neighbors. For those who did not pass their U.S. history class, when I noted next-door neighbors, I mean Louisiana! Salmon This manner in which this silky salmon was prepared with a crunchy coating of fragrant seeds rendered the skin on this fish shatteringly crisp. The bed of sun-dried tomato orzo was creamy but a bit bland. While the tomato added a pop of color to the orzo, the tang was missing. However, the star of this dish did shine. Overall, the service provided by our waiter, Tyler, coupled with the lake views and quaint atmosphere, made this an enjoyable experience and one I would repeat. #supportlocal read more

The desert of Whiskey cake is a special treat. So yummi and rich. The fine Service starts with your reservation and never seises to exceed your every expectation ... read more

Definitely the highlight meal during our stay in Kerrville need a reservation to get seated. View to river is beautiful @ Sunset. Diana had Pork Tenderloin on a bed of corn grits and she cleaned the plate a rare accomplishment for her, I went with the Sirloin 10 oz with potatoes steak was charred nicely and medium rare they used a compound butter which made each bite one to savor a good chew on the way to the tummy. We ended the meal with the whiskey cake which consisted of bourbon toffee sauce, crème anglaise, maple pecans served warm quite delicious read more

1011 Bistro - Great personal treatment- awesome staff! - New American Near Me - Kerrville, Texas

Celebrated my daughter's birthday here it was lovely. The views were amazing! The service was a little slow, however our food was delicious!

Service great. Atmosphere very nice. So looking forward to this meal because of the reviews (what did THEY eat?!). Ugh. Duck was tough and the Chilean Sea Bass was like a greasy piece of cod from a cheap cafeteria. Never again... read more

Eeeck. We ordered the surf and turf and couldn't eat the shrimp it was so salty. We were able to eat the steak because we ate the inside of the steak. It was average at best. We were so excited to try this place. We saved it for the day we got our marriage license. View 10/10. Food 4/10. We won't be going back. Very average. read more

Interesting spot when you feel like having a little bit of a fancy meal. Main reason for the 3 star was the initial first impression for service. The place was basically empty on a Sunday at 5pm for dinner and the host made a special exception to even consider seat my part aside from the fact they were empty when we arrived and pretty much thru our entire dining service. The view of the lake is pretty nice but only available for tables of 4 or less so take that into consideration. There were some outside tables but I can't imagine dining out there being very comfortable. Overall food was good and actual table service was good as well. read more

This place is a gem that we wound up stumbling on. The view is breathtaking and the food was divine. The burrata and ahi tuna appetizers were great. The desserts were also all good. Duck was okay. We were hoping to get Ossobuco but they only serve that Saturday. I wasn't a big fan of the duck but the sweet potato au gratin was delicious. Service from Trevor was also exceptional. read more

Party of 5 for a celebratory dinner. We arrive at 6:15 and we're probably seated on the patio. The sun was setting and it was a little warm but not bad. The staff helped adjust the screen to minimize the sun and glare. Our waiter, Trevor, was incredibly accommodating right on point provide a good advice on the menu and deliver food promptly. We were very pleased with our service. Our guests had Seabass, lamb, antelope, and seafood linguine. Everyone was very happy with their choices. This place has an unbelievable wine list for its size and location. We enjoyed a wonderful red blend chaos theory. All of us had a great time and would definitely recommend it. read more

Very nice. River views. Good wine selection. Small very good menu. Nice ambitious and service. read more

This is an elegant dining spot with wide river views. Dress is casual. Tyler was an excellent server. We had a great dinner here. The lamb was cooked to perfection. One of the ribeyes was undercooked. The other was a perfect medium rare. The salmon was good, but the real hit was the seabass. The muscles were on the fishy side, but we still finished them. The crab cakes were good, but a little fishy as well. Again, our plate was clean. We tried all 5 desserts. The hit was the whiskey cake. read more

horrible food, great view, good service. No cream or honey for coffee or tea. Calamari was ridiculously thin and tasteless. The sweet potato au gratin was disgusting. read more

Relaxing atmosphere and pleasant staff. The presentation of the food is great, and the tastes are, too. Everything was seasoned well, no need to add extra salt or pepper. The bread they bring out at the beginning, though?! Excellent. I had the lamb and it was good, but definitely not the best I've had. I didn't like that they put it on top of the yogurt; I prefer to have the option to dip it. The risotto patties (can't remember if that's what they were called) are a bit of an acquired taste/texture. The pork tenderloin was a nice mix of sweet and savory. The salmon was actually my favorite - crispy on the outside and tender inside. Their sopapillas are good, but not really authentic, imo. Also, was not a fan at all of the vanilla bean ice cream served with it. Overall, it was a nice experience and the food was good. read more

Great food, great atmosphere. I've been back several times and will go again. Great establishment.

I am so glad my husband made reservations here. You will not be disappointed. It started with our waitress, who was polite and helpful. The atmosphere was fantastic and romantic. The food was absolutely delicious! I had the Salmon and my husband had the lamb. Everything was perfectly cooked. We will definitely be back here when visiting! Thank you so much for a great night. read more

Romantic with low lights and great service. My husband and I went on a valentines date and the food was delicious! We ordered a bottle of wine, calamari for the appetizer. I ordered the duck and my husband ordered the antelope which was fried like a chicken fried steak. Everything was so good! The parking is street parking though with not so great lighting but overall good prices for great food! read more

Best restaurant in town by miles. Have had pretty much every entre and they've all been good

They were super accommodating to us; we made a reservation at 8 but were like 20 minutes late; they didn't care! On a Friday night too. It was quiet when we got there. I wish we would have been able to see the river with the sun up, but the view was remarkable regardless. The food was awesome, Tyler was our server and he was very patient. We got a half dessert portion of the chocolate hazelnut tart for our anniversary, which was a sweet gesture and delicious! We loved it, would definitely return when we visit the area again. I got the salmon and my husband got the lamb. The lamb was awesome and the potatoes gratin side with it was great. The orzo with the salmon was some of the best I ever had. read more

A nice restaurant for a nice dinner. You can dress up for a birthday or anniversary or dress down for a romantic dinner. I've eaten here several times, and have always had a well prepared meal, cooked to order and presented well. Service is excellent and you can always get a recommendation on the wines. Also, make a reservation and request a table overlooking the river. Really good place to eat, I would highly recommend for that special occasion. read more

Delicious food, reasonable price, with a beautiful view, and excellent service. One of our favorites

Delicious food, beautiful plating and presentation, superb taste, all in a wonderful surroundings on the Guadalupe in Kerrville. Wine list by the glass varied, the Bernardus Pinot Noir was excellent, service was impeccable! Overall a high quality experience! Highly recommend read more

My wife and I have dined at this establishment several times in the past, mostly when we are celebrating our anniversaries. Not once have we been disappointed in the meals or the service. And again, just this past evening, we dined there to celebrate and as always the food and service was impeccable! Our server, I believe Travis was his name, was very polite and attentive and got orders complete exactly as we requested. Then, to top off the meal, he brought us a complimentary desert after we finished the main course. What a nice gesture and we enjoyed it very much. The ambiance is very low key. The dining area isn't overly decorated, and the noise level is low even when the tables are almost all full of diners. The view is very nice of the Guadalupe River and you can request a river view seating if you so desire. We made our reservations by using the OPEN TABLE app and when we arrived, the staff had all the information and seated us early and where we had requested. All in all, we experienced a wonderful dining experience. read more

This place was a pleasant surprise for us when we were visiting Kerville. I had the rack of lamb and my son had the Chilean Seabass- they both were excellent. The staff was friendly and it has an amazing view. Will definitely go again! read more

Very relaxing good food nice river view and sunset was amazing. Good memories will be shared with family and friends.

I recently dined solo here because my husband was detained by work. I had fantastic well seasoned and perfectly cooked mussels to start. They were out of Osso Buco, so I tried the antelope CFS, which was perfectly tender...one of the best I've had, way beyond a typical CFS with some seriously good creamy and peppery gravy. I take my food (especially pricey food) seriously and that night was great. Had a steak there in the last trip that I would only give 3.5-4 stars, but my daughter had excellent lamb. The river views, the well curated wine list, and the really professional service are a plus. read more

On June 24th friends invited Peg and me to celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary at 1011 Bistro. I ate there several years ago, when it was under different ownership; the food was excellent then, so I was excited about trying it once again. We ordered the Mozzarella Burrata for an appetizer. Peg and one of our friends ordered the rack of lamb, his wife the red snapper; I chose the sea bass. The burrata was excellent and came with grape tomatoes, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, basil salt and crostini. The dish was well-balanced and the crostini were properly prepared--just crispy enough around the crust with the interior remaining a bit soft. The racks of lamb were four-bone, served with mint-yogurt sauce (nice departure from the usual mint jelly), parmesan risotto cakes, and roasted tomatoes. I tried to sneak a bite from Peg's plate but she threatened me with a fork, so I thought better of it. I did give her my best Sad Puppy Dog Eyes (Pat. Pend.) and she gifted me a morsel of the risotto cake. Crunchy exterior, creamy interior--quite nice. Our friend's red snapper was blackened & grilled and accompanied by lemon butter and edamame-corn succotash. I didn't get a taste but from her yummy sounds and eyes rolling heavenward, I knew she was enjoying it. She had never had soy beans and was somewhat hesitant to try them; but after a bite she gobbled them up. My sea bass was crusted with an almond-panko mixture, topped with orange butter and sat atop a bed of Chinese black rice with roasted carrots on the side. If you've never had it, black rice often stands in for wild rice as it looks similar (albeit shorter grained), is less expensive and has the same mouth feel; the flavor is different but pleasant. Unfortunately, the carrots had seen much better days; they were shriveled, hard and only lukewarm. The sea bass, however, was perfectly cooked, moist and flavorful--everything it should be. And now I'll answer the question you're begging to ask: if the food, with the exception of the carrots, was excellent, why only three stars? Gentle Reader, if there is one thing that "gets my goat," as we say in the Glorious South, it's the old Bait and Switch. I automatically deduct two stars as it is a form of dishonesty that, having owned two restaurants in Europe in my younger years, I detest. Yes, I expect it in fast food places but not in a high-end establishment such as 1011 Bistro. Look at the sea bass photo posted by the business on this Yelp page, then look at my photo of the same dish. A bit of a difference, yes? The dishes Peg and my friends had were accurately represented by the business's photos. For $32 dollars, it was a rip-off, pure and simple. As much as I enjoyed the food, their dishonesty prevents me from returning. read more

We went to celebrate our 27th anniversary. Let's start with the service. I can't remember our servers name but she told us she one year younger than our marriage and she was just cute as can be and very attentive. We started with the seared Caesar salad which was tasty. My husband got the filet and he enjoyed it. The bite he shared was good. I got the pork tenderloin with ancho coffee rub with corn relish and grits. Oh my goodness, was it ever delicious. Tons of flavor and I'm now on the search for a coffee ancho rub I can try out at home. I loved it and had to stop myself from finishing it all because I wanted to save room for dessert(s). Yes. PLURAL. Because we ordered three. We got a complimentary chocolate hazelnut torte which was so delicious. My husband got a lemon desert and I got the crème brûlée. Were our eyes bigger than our stomachs? Maybe a little! Was it worth it to sample three deserts on a special occasion? YES! The views were spectacular. The service was great. The food was wonderful. Thanks for making a special day even more special. read more

Cozy little place located along the river. It was dark when we arrived at 7, but I'm sure the views are great! Excellent service - our server (I think his name was Taylor?...) was attentive, present, and gave us space to enjoy our evening. For starters, we ordered the crab cakes. They came out very quickly and a dark brown, which was a red flag for me. I gave them a taste and was not happy with the choice I'd made. The crab cakes were overdone and tasted like a tuna casserole that had been re-heated too often in a microwave. Our server noticed we had moved them to the side and came to check-in. He apologized, took them away, and let us know the crab cakes would be removed from our tab. The bread was spectacular. Fluffy, soft, and wonderful. We really enjoyed it. Our meals arrived and I can't lie; I was shocked to see the saddest haricots verts I have ever seen in my life. They were white in spots, chargrilled black in others, and most definitely were NOT fresh. My steak was unusually tough for a ribeye; no juiciness or true buttery tender of a quality ribeye and mine was overcooked. The butter that was on top of my steak never even melted because the steak just wasn't hot. It wasn't cold, but, for something charred on a grill and overcooked from the barely medium-rare I'd ordered, the butter should have at least melted. That being said, the mashed potatoes were heavenly! Great job there. My fella ordered the snapper "blackened". I think they missed the memo on what "blackened" means. It was so overdone. Charred to a dry, flavor lacking strip of something. Meanwhile, the succotash was so yummy! Black beans, edamame, and sweet corn; a unique blend of flavors that worked well together. For dessert, we got the whiskey cake & Blood Orange dessert. The Whiskey Cake was absolutely incredible; moist and sweet and just scrumptious. Blood Orange Semifreddo was the perfect amount of tart and sweet. Absolutely enjoyed it! While the food left me with mixed thoughts and wondering how they'd acquired such great ratings, I also wondered why they weren't using more fresh ingredients. Much of the food was obviously canned or old, which changed the whole experience of the meal. COVID Info: The tables have hand sanitizer, which I felt was a really kind gesture. While I do think this is a great spot for a Happy Hour during sunset, I don't think we would ever eat here again when visiting. read more

What a great lakeside setting for a beautiful meal. Again, Yelp came through. We were out of town and looking for a dinner spot. The meal was fresh, tasty and elegantly presented.
