Not sure how updated their inventory is as we were looking for Mama Mango or Mama Pomegranate & the store associate looked it up but said it wasn't in stock. She left & I was in the Moscato section & found the Mama Mango so we snagged a bottle. I had ordered a bottle of Ube Creme Liqueur as my friend texted that it was available so I ordered online for store pickup since I was in the area. I looked at the yummy Sauternes, a lot of which were rated 91+ pts! We have about 3 bottles at home so I just took note. I looked at the other liqueurs like Pistachios, Passion Fruit and the other fruity Moscatos I'd like to try someday. They even had Kosher wines & we were reading some of the labels which had Biblical names & titled. I'm usually buying some Caliveda Pinot Noir which is one of their best sellers. I stock up during the holidays when they have bundle deals. They have such an organized store and even have a Cigar area. They hold tasting classes in the back & upcoming ones will be for wine. We missed the Tequila tasting so we'll check another location. They have great deals as rewards members so sign up!

The fella in front of me was unable to find a lager version of his beloved pabst, so the cashier…read morereally dug in and helped him. Full on stop of the line and radioed three different staff. Awesome customer service. For that one dude. But it was poor customer service for the rest of us in line, who have been to stores before and were courteous enough to arrive at the checkout counter with ALL the merchandise we intended to purchase already. About three minutes into a game I like to call "8,000 bottles of wine - 1 impressively inefficient cashier on duty", I decided it would be best if I try to frequent businesses who are financially solvent enough to staff two or more cashiers during peak hours. So I saved time at checkout by...driving elsewhere and purchasing my goods. I'm hoping, but not overly confident, that by the time you read this review the lager situation is resolved.

I recently checked out the café at the Culinary Institute of America in San Antonio. I ordered a…read morematcha, but unfortunately it was way too sweet for my taste. That said, the pastry was excellent( super fresh and definitely the highlight of my visit.) My total came out to about $14, which is a bit on the pricey side, but I don't mind paying it knowing it supports the students and their training. Parking is something to plan for: you only get 30 minutes free at the Kohler Garage, and the Pearl District no longer offers two-hour free parking. There is paid public parking available nearby, though. I would absolutely come back for their dinner-course meal. I've done it multiple times and love it every time. However, I'd probably skip the café drinks in the future and just stick to the pastries.

Even with that, the bartender took good care of us as we had to sit outside. I normally like sitting outside, but this area seems like an afterthought and like you're not part of the party. They came and got us when there was space inside, so we still had a fantastic time. When it cleared out, it really cleared out! We started with a sampler and loved all of them. My friend is a member and by the end of our time there, I joined also! All the wines were so delicious. Also, the owner was walking around greeting everyone...I always like that, as it makes you feel valued.

It turned out it used to be Lara's vineyard and I have been to it before. Now it seems expended and the place is full! So many visitors and even internationals! I was so happy to be there! Our server was amazing! I asked for his name and I forgot. Now that it is World Cup season he was wearing a Colombian tshirt but he is Mexican. So friendly and on point! They are all hard working.. if it wasn't him it was somebody else passing by offering services They have music outside. This place is so alive I didn't want to leave! The food is super good! From the pizza to the salad... everything fresh! The only downside is if you do not drink wine they do not have beer or any other alcohol. Regardless of that it was a memorable experience! Highly recommend

Something about the pictures I seen made me interested in going and the Italian food . What an amazing experience food was amazing as I ordered the meatballs Caprese salad and the margarita pizza . Food was fresh and delicious and waiters were super friendly . The atmosphere was quaint, comfortable, and refreshing to sit on the patio that felt like I was sitting in the middle of a vineyard I purchased three bottles of the Zin pom wine can't wait to share with my friends. The most exciting part was to find out that the owners Sandra and her husband were from the bay area where I'm from and we're so nice and familiar to us and made us feel At home . She even offered next time to let her know if I was coming, she would show me around her vineyard . If I lived closer, I would definitely become a member as I hope to purchase more of this wine when I get back home

Still had tags and everything attached. Nope need a receipt for an even exchange. Look up account I used when I purchased. Nope doesn't exist. Call corporate, found account, we will request a receipt for you. Great! Tell me location, exact date, exact total. I need the receipt for the exact total. Oh well we can't find the receipt if you can't provide the exact total. All for an EVEN EXCHANGE!!!! What store doesn't do even exchanges without a reciept??!! TL/DR: always keep your receipts cause even with their name on the product they won't exchange anything.

Love the park and ride, it's a relief being able to drink alcohol and not have to worry about calling an uber or cab. The park and ride allows you the opportunity to just relax, and enjoy the experience. If you log onto their website they have different tour packages. We did the Guadalupe River tour. We stopped at 3 Winery's and a distillery and tried some moonshine. We stopped for lunch in Comfort, Tx which was a cute little town. You get out and enjoy a some time looking around before moving on with the tour. The winery's they take you to are just amazing. What you get for the price is such a great deal. We never felt rushed. They allowed us to sight see and allowed us to just take our time to enjoy each winery. Diana or Robin even took our photos.

Larder is an "in-house gourmet market and café." My silly girls were craving bagels for breakfast before our zoo visit on 5.25.2025.
