    Cheese enchiladas
    Yolanda C.

    Our first time here. We came in on a budget, saw the cheese enchiladas for $6.00!!! They were amazing, with fresh made flour tortillas. The service was great, very attentive staff. The setting is a convenience store with tables in the middle. Nice soft music playing in the background.

    I love Korean barbecue but have been let down trying restaurants in San Antonio in the past. I knew to expect that the restaurant is inside of a grocery market. The variety of drinks and snacks is impressive but more impressive than that is the quality of the food and service! Our server was great and very accommodating for our friend who has multiple food allergies. It was my birthday lunch and even my friend who is a picky eater thought the food was great. I will definitely be back!

    Tried the all you can eat lunch special. Pork belly was underwhelming due to lack of seasoning, but everything else was amazing! Tried the octopus, prawns, pork belly, Bulgogi, and short ribs. The short ribs were my favorite, but they will only give one round of short ribs With this particular special. Our waitress replenished our sides and regularly checked in on us to ensure our cooking temperatures were spot on. Highly recommended if you go with a hefty appetite.

    Authentic Korean FoodThat Never Disappoints! It's been a while since our last visit to Chas Market & Kitchen, and we were pleasantly surprised by how much better the place looks now l! The updated printed menu and improved dining area, complete with new dividers, give this humble bodega a cleaner and more inviting feel. We didn't see the friendly young Korean guy who usually provides such warm service, but the food was still as amazing as ever--flavorful, authentic, and perfectly cooked (the Korean auntie is there by the way and she's awesome!) Thisntime we skipped the AYCE option and went for the bento boxes, as alway, they nailed it. Every bite reminded us why we keep coming back. When we crave authentic Korean food that's consistently delicious and high-quality, this is our go-to spot in San Antonio. Chas Market & Kitchen isn't just a bodega--it's a hidden gem serving incredible Korean comfort food without the fancy setting and high prices. Highly recommended...always!

    When you're craving Korean food this is it. When you walk in you are welcomed with busy bustling staff, self seating. I've only gone for lunch but you're not limited to the lunch box. The food is really good and very good serving sizes. You get to select your own drink from the wall of refrigerators. It's like a small cafeteria open concept, it's nothing fancy but you're not there for a fancy atmosphere.

    Pleasantly surprised that I stumbled across this place in the downtown area. Cleanliness is a little lacking (it was a previous market repurposed into a restaurant) but service has always been fast and attentive. It's probably the best spot for Korean food in SA. Reasonable prices, dishes weren't overly sweet, and they had a good selection of banchan. Deep and rich flavors but still missing out on some authenticity. Favorite dishes: galbi, yukgaejang, galbitang, dolsotbibimbap

    Service was great, prices were more than reasonable especially for Korean BBQ, and the food was fantastic! The restaurant is located inside of a small market. I will say this isn't the fanciest or cleanest place, however in my opinion this is what makes it most authentic! I will 100% be back in the future and highly recommend this for your next meal!

    Coco Milk with mango
    Ruthie W.

    We haven't had Korean food in a while and decided to visit @chaskoreanbbq. We had a good first visit and went back for more. Dad and I shared the Coco Milk with mango, and Hubby had Arizona Green Tea. We started with the Pan-Fried Dumplings. We then shared the Galbi, Japchae, and Beef Bulgogi. The photo for the bulgogi seemed unclear but it was steaming hot when it got to our table. Everything was delicious and the ban chan (sides) were fantastic too. If you're in the downtown area looking for a legit Korean restaurant, look no further!

    Chas Market & Kitchen is a true hole-in-the-wall experience for the unassuming. We were staying downtown but wanted KBBQ. We were pleasantly surprised to find Chas located so close to us. Pulling up, it looked like an old retail plaza just off the interstate. Walking in, we thought we were in a convenience store until one of the workers told us to sit down anywhere. Turns out, they have a dining area in the middle of the store, complete with table stoves and vent hoods. We were happy to learn that they offer an AYCE for $30 + tax. It comes with a bottle of water that you can grab from one of the wall coolers. They also have soju and Japanese beer available, as well as sodas and other drinks for purchase. We ordered the brisket, spicy pork bulgogi, and galbi. Side dishes and a bowl of rice were served to us and the brisket was brought out soon after. The waitress turned on the stove for us and gave us a tong and a pair of scissors to work with. To our surprise, the galbi and spicy pork bulgogi came out fully cooked, and they were full-size portions! The brisket we were cooking ourselves also had a ribeye steak hiding underneath on the same plate! Needless to say, we were completely stuffed full from this meal. They do charge $15 extra per person if the food isn't finished so that motivated us to push forward. I believe AYCE has a two-hour limit, so there's plenty of time to pace yourself. We ended the night on a $72 + tip, which we thought was well worth it and an instant family favorite.

    Found this gem on TikTok and I couldn't be happier. Everything was so good! very good experience. There's is a wall full of drinks to choose from which I love! The young gentleman was very nice and patient with us we are slow to order and the elder women stopped by and was so nice, she offered us an additional dish as she had made extra for another customer. It was a pork kimchi, and it was very tasty. 10 out of 10 spot would definitely recommend and will definitely be coming back.! chill atmosphere

    This a quaint and unexpected Korean BBQ spot in San Antonio recommended by a local who frequents this place. The AYCE option is affordable with plenty of authentic side dishes.

    First visit was not what I expected. Bulgogi was not fresh, appears left over meat was deep fried to reheat. Meat was saturated with cooking oil. Kimchee was scarce.

    I didn't expect this place to be this good! From the outside, Chas Market and Kitchen looks super unassuming--it's a bit random and doesn't really scream "restaurant," but once you step inside and taste the food, you'll be blown away. We ordered the Korean BBQ Short Ribs, Bulgogi, and Galbitang. Korean BBQ Short Ribs - an absolute standout--so juicy and tender with a marinade that was perfectly balanced between sweet, savory, and smoky. This was my favorite dish of the day. Bulgogi - thinly sliced, perfectly cooked, and just the right level of sweetness. The meat was tender and flavorful, practically melting in your mouth. It had that addictive, comforting flavor you can't stop eating. Galbitang - The broth was rich and full of depth, clearly made with high-quality ingredients. You could tell it had been simmered for hours to bring out all that flavor. The soup was hearty, warming, and filled with tender beef and soft, delicious vegetables. Honestly, this place is a hidden gem. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and stop by! Don't let the exterior fool you. The food is top-notch, and the service was friendly and welcoming. I'll definitely be back!

The employees were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Great customer service like that really makes a difference. The food was absolutely delicious. The jalapeño cheddar sausage was a 10/10--full of flavor with a nice spicy kick that wasn't overwhelming. The regular sausage was also a 10/10 and just as impressive. The brisket was juicy, tender, and loaded with flavor in every bite. For sides, we tried the macaroni and cheese with bacon, and it was phenomenal. Rich, creamy, and easily one of the best sides I've had. The jalapeño rice was something I've never had before, and it was surprisingly unique and incredibly good. Overall, Pinkerton's Barbecue delivered amazing food and exceptional service. I'll definitely be coming back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for great barbecue.

Checked Yelp for dinner suggestions so Doc drove us to the paid lot next to where all the Cinderella lit up carriages drawn by horses were lined up. It seemed the boats going up and down the River portion of the Walk were busier. While we were walking I had my eyes open for a table with a view. We stopped at Four Brothers. The receptionist went over suggestions on the menu on her outdoor podium. Cornbread in the shape of Texas, shareable items like Dino ribs for $82, plus Pork Shank and ice tea completed our order. Everyone was very friendly. We had an exceptional view and we had more than enough food that we had to ask for take out boxes. My favorite was the Mac & cheese though I'm usually not a fan. This dish used cork screw shaped pasta and it was moist and not stuck together. I had to share a photo of it with Sweetie who is in Tokyo right now. Doc liked the pimento for the cornbread. As it was almost 9 pm we decided to pass on the boat ride but just walk on the other side with shops and more eateries. We're back on the road again tomorrow to Arizona.

On the plus side, our server was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome throughout the meal. We ordered the pork tenderloin, ribeye, and shrimp and grits with a creamy gravy sauce. Every single dish was delicious. I'm pretty picky when it comes to steak, but the ribeye really impressed me: it was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The shrimp and grits were another standout. The creamy sauce was rich and incredibly tasty, with just a hint of spice that added flavor without being overwhelming. As someone who doesn't enjoy very spicy food, I thought it was just right. Overall, despite the crowded atmosphere and slightly disappointing cocktail, the food was excellent and definitely the highlight of our visit. We'd happily come back for another meal.

Y'know it's impossible to find street parking especially on the weekends normally. I had made reservations to meet some friends here for brunch/lunch 1145 am on a Sunday. This place is bigger than it looks! There's seating at the main building, plus a huge outdoor patio seating area, and an entire other building beautifully decorated. The hostess was welcoming and friendly and our server was excellent. We were seated in the other building near the windows. The menu wasn't huge, but just right with a few lunch and brunch items. After debating for a while of what to order, I decided on the Texas Gulf Shrimp plate. Agua Fresca of the day per our server was strawberry pineapple. Our server was able to water mine down slightly- since it was very sweet, but love knowing that it was freshly made. Complimentary chips and salsa always a plus, and we were able to order some spicy salsa to accompany at no charge. My shrimp plate was delicious! 2 skewers of nicely cooked and seasoned shrimp atop salsa with perfectly cooked cilantro rice and a fresh leaf salad. A half slices avocado accompanied my plate. Oh how I love avocados. I thoroughly enjoyed my plate. The chicken al carbon was also a good choice - half a chicken that was juicy, not dry. The avocado toast was beautiful and the pecan salsa was quite interesting. The female performers during our brunch in the room, made it very hard for all of us to have conversations. The volume echoed loudly in the room, so it was very hard to speak and understand each other. Although a great idea, maybe outdoor patio area might be more suitable. Beautiful space, great service, good food.
