    Incredible! Expensive & Worth it! Service, food, experience...spot on! A stand out experience for our wedding anniversary. Great energy, not stuffy. Great for a group or an intimate night out.

    Enjoyed a beautiful, well-paced meal here. Our server was fantastic! Excellent cocktails, gorgeous space. The French onion and the crab cakes are worth writing home about! Really beautiful patio for drinks after. They deserve all the stars! A definite experience

    Inside

    One of the best, if not the best, steakhouse I've been to. Service was excellent, the inside was beautiful, and the food was beyond my expectations. For starters, we had the French Onion Soup and the Wedge Salad. The soup was good, it was on the sweeter side though which wasn't my favorite. The salad was fresh, crunchy, and light. Definitely a highlight! For the main course, we had the 8oz Filet, 16oz Ribeye, and the Char-Grilled Jumbo Shrimp. This is what made this steakhouse standout to me. Everything was season and cooked to perfection. The side of the Brandy Mushroom Sauce was a great addition to the steak. The Filet was soft, juicy, and just perfect in every bite. The Ribeye was full of flavor and overall was a very good steak. The shrimp was some of the best shrimp I've had. The seasoning was impeccable, it was juicy, and tasty. For sides, we had the Baked Potato and Broccoli. The potato was a 10/10 and you were able to add more or less of what you wanted with the do it yourself style. I loved it! The broccoli was cooked great it was just very saturated in a pool of olive oil. Finally, dessert was a huge highlight and I loved every single bite. We got the Triple Chocolate Double Fudge Brownie. It was like eating a molten lava cake as a brownie. It was soft, gooey, chocolatey, fudgey, and everything you would want from a brownie and so much more. If you have not tried this steakhouse and are in the area of San Antonio, you need to come here because it will not disappoint by any means!

    Great place! Have not eaten here in a long while. Pricey to be sure but worth it! Steak was very good, and worth the price but no really the best I have ever had. The seafood is king here. As is the banana foster dessert! Great for a special occasion!

    Bohanan's Prime Steak is definitely a five star restaurant. If you love a good steak, they have something for you and you will not be disappointed. The steaks are such high-quality and cooked to perfection, there is no need for a steak knife.The flavor is amazing and all of the sides and desserts are cooked to perfection and a wonderful compliment to their entrees. Bohanan's is a beautiful historic building with a bar on the first level that is a work of art itself and spacious dining area on the second level. The service is always exceptional as well as you would expect from a five star steak house. If you are looking for an amazing dining experience for a special occasion or as a part of an evening downtown you must try Bohanan's.

    Looking for an amazing place for intimate celebrations? Bohanans is the perfect mix of ambiance , excellent service and a menu to please everyone. We were celebrating a birthday party and from start to finish we were pleased with every bite. The quality of each course was exceptional...the steak was the star with the crab cakes being the best I have ever had and we look forward to going back again and again. Don't miss this fine dining experience while in San Antonio.

    Went here for our anniversary and it was next level experience. We sat up stairs so the hostess instructed us to use the elevator, when the doors opened we were greeted by name. The staff was next level as well so attentive and professional. Food was delicious and my red snapper was so good I wanted to order another one! Highly recommend this place!

    Bohanan's is the last name of the chef in Owner and was established in 2002. The building itself has some great history and I believe I was told this latest one is the third owner. Everyone we met last night took such great care us. Dave, Logan, Zander, Alex and Maya, what a team. I love the starter with the homemade jalapeño jelly, cream cheese, and Lil crunchy toast. The bread muffins were good and I really enjoyed my perfectly seasoned and cooked steak. It was fabulous. I also ordered Their House salad. It was fresh in delightful, but it definitely was not worth $21. It barely filled up the inside of a plate as you can see in my picture but overall of the decor, love the people love the food. I WOULD RECOMMEND

    First time here and can't wait to return! We were going to see the Nutcracker at the Majestic right across the street. We had 90 minutes before it began and we decided to pop in. The hostess was kind and gave us the option of their bar area or their main dining. We chose to stay in the bar area. They have two menu options for both areas. We started with drinks: ld fashioned for the husband and I chose the Cantarito. Both were so delicious. To eat, we had the filet cooked to perfection served with Parmesan truffle fries and I had the steak salad which was wonderful!! Service was top notch. Restrooms were so clean. Love the candlelit ambience. Very romantic! You pay for what you get. And every penny is worth it!

    Let me just start by saying the ambiance and service at Bohanan's is top notch! I was out for a night of fun with the fellas and as soon as we walked in the door, we were met with smiling faces and a warm welcome from all of the staff. The waitress was very thorough in explaining all the different cuts of meat they had and made decision making easy. Sides are shareable and are made of high quality ingredients, all flavors were on point. It was also very nice of them to have 3 waiters bring out our 3 steaks all at the same time, a very nice touch that was appreciated. Steaks were cooked to perfect temperature and dessert (which I usually skip) was to die for. Restaurant staff were all very friendly and even showed us their gratitude as we finished up and walked out the door. Overall excellent experience from start to finish, will definitely be coming back next time I'm in the area. Pro tip - try to get a seat by the window for a nice view!

    Ribeye, Creamy Macaroni & Cheese, Sautéed Spinach, Potatoes au Gratin, a5 wagyu
    Hannah N.

    I don't say this lightly: this is my favorite meal in the history of food. Not "one of my favorites." The favorite. If eating this every single day were medically, financially, and socially acceptable, I absolutely would. I have to settle for once a year on my anniversary. I order this every time. I always order the "regular" ribeye (using that word very loosely), and my husband goes for the A5 Wagyu. And yet somehow, my so-called regular steak is still the best steak I've ever eaten in my life. Nothing else even comes close. Other steaks have officially been ruined for me. This one is life-changing in a way that feels dramatic but is also completely accurate. And the sautéed spinach? I would order it as my entrée if they'd let me. Best side dish ever, full stop. The entire experience is worth every penny. From the first bite to the last, it's one of those meals you keep thinking about long after you leave. This place has officially raised the bar to an unfair level, and I will happily keep coming back anyway. Five stars, forever.

    After many positive experiences here from bar visits to company executive dinners over the past 15+ years, my visit this week was extremely disappointing. Despite not being busy at all, I sat at the bar to have a drink and dinner, but was largely ignored until I finally flagged someone down. The two bartenders seemed entirely uninterested in serving me. I could see them taking note of me out of the corner of their eyes, but every time they walked by, they seemed to go out of their way to not make any sort of eye contact or acknowledgment. I don't know if I looked too young, or I if was dressed too casually to be considered worth their time - although I was wearing a collared shirt, so who knows. I ended up having a single cocktail and leaving to have dinner elsewhere. It's sad how one experience like this can really take the luster off of a place that you've built up for so long. Old habits die hard, but I probably need to branch out and try some new places when I'm in town for work. The cocktail was fine.

    Mashed Potatoes with goat cheese
    Jessie W.

    Really great steakhouse in San Antonio. The decor was beautiful and the service was top-notch. I had the 7oz filet, and while cooked perfectly, I thought it lacked flavor and was a little on the dry side. Other person at the table had the 12oz strip and it was also cooked perfectly. We split the wedge salad, and it was great. We had the Mac and cheese as one side and it was very good, very cheesy. We also had the mashed potatoes with goat cheese, which were also great. The bread was not that impressive and the size of the sides were not quite big enough given their prices. Overall, a great dinner!

    NY Strip, fillet, mashed potatoes and the mushrooms (to die for!). Not pictured:  their side car, margarita, and an off-menu sazarac

    Bohanan's Prime Steak and Seafood Reviews in Other Languages

    Ask the Community - Bohanan's Prime Steak and Seafood

    What kind of price are we talking about for a lovely dinner for two; one steak entree, one fish entree with wine, salad, vegetable sides and dessert?

    If you're going with a "value" bottle of wine, along with all of the other dishes, you're looking at about $225-$250 with tip.

    What’s the difference between upstairs seating and not upstairs?

    About 12 ft. And the proximity to the bar.

    Does anybody know where to find the wine list?

    That book is so thick, I doubt they have it online.

    What are the dessert options? Do they still serve bananas foster, and is it served tableside? What other tableside services are offered?

    Last night they had bananas foster, cherries jubilee, and flambéed strawberries (all prepared table side), amaretto cheesecake, creme brûlée, bread pudding, and some chocolate dessert.

    What is the general price for dinner? For instance steak salad and wine?

    I am assuming you mean a steak, salad and wine not steak salad! Expect to spent about $100 a person for that. The service is excellent and so is the food.

    Hi what's the best place to park nearby?

    They have valet parking. Or, there is a surface lot on Houston between Soledad and Main.

    Are children allowed? A very well behaved toddler.

    Yes, but be aware this is a fine dining (tablecloths, cocktails, wine sommelier, etc.) location. Not exactly high chair and booster seat territory.

    We are bringing our 11 and 12 year old to dinner before the theater. Is there a kids' menu?

    Not specifically. Picky eaters might be okay with the Mac and cheese side (which are generous for 2) or the BLT sliders or fish tacos from the bar menu, or you could call ahead and see if they'll special order the burger or Frito Pie from the lunch… Read more

    Do they regularly carry fresh king crab?

    Is there still live jazz on Saturday nights?

    Yes. Every Friday and Saturday evening. Starts around 9!

    Jeans ok to wear? I'm in town without my luggage

    Hi Johnathen my name is Colin Curtis always happy to answer questions yes jeans are a good choice mabey with a collard shirt would be nice. I would also recommend you getting the Rocky Mountain oysters if your in to that.

    Daniel is AMAZING! thanks for the help and making me laugh!!! Love the atmosphere/vibe.read more

    Update to first review below, rating updated from a 3 to a 5 star (drinks & bartender would get 10+…read morestars if we could rate that high): Saturday night: Went back for after dinner drinks at the Downstairs (a "speakeasy" throwback, look up the history of the place to see why). Drinks were AMAZING! Bartender Rob made the best Negroni I've ever had. I asked him to use whatever gin he thought best--result was an artistic smooooooth full-bodied drink. Told him when I was done I'd lick the glass if it wasn't considered so uncouth for a 'mature' lady like myself to do so Hubby's Buffalo Trace bourbon old fashioned was also outstanding. Rob was the bartender last night who did such a great job, and his work was even better tonight. We highly recommend The EsquireTavern for excellent cocktails. We love the long wood bar and high copper ceiling upstairs, but love the intimate speakeasy atmosphere downstairs even more. We'll definitely be back every time we're in San Antonio! First review, Friday night: Drinks were great (Manhattan and Bourbon Old Fashioned). REAL drinks, no complaints at all about those. And the bartenders were very friendly and helpful. Those aspects of the Esquire get 5+ stars from us. But the appetizers were not good, close to inedible. It was about 8:30pm or so, so maybe they were getting ready to close out the kitchen but the chalupitas with chicken tasted like rubber, and no flavor at all. The seafood platter had something in it that was breading with shell inside, but no meat of any kind. We couldn't figure out what it was supposed to be. The shrimp was good and the fish was good but those other things... We'll always love the drinks, the long wooden bar, and the ambiance at the Esquire Tavern, but we'll eat somewhere else and come here for before or after dinner drinks. (See update above to this review for when we returned the next night for after dinner drinks.)
