    Fried Chicken Sandwich
    Chantelle L.

    Fun outdoorsy hangout spot! My friends and I enjoyed each other's company with food and drinks at Elsewhere. The workers were so sweet and friendly. My party melt was perfectly ooey-gooey, greasy, and comforting. That plus a frozen mango margarita just takes away Monday's stresses!

    Celebrated 50% nurses here with my nursing school group. We been doing trivia for over a year now here

    50% nurse cake at elsewhere. An amazing place to relax with some friends outside. They have a great bar and great food to share.

    Dog friendly!

    One of our favorite dog friendly places near the Riverwalk! The frozen margarita with the White Claw is so tasty! Love that the patio has misters to keep cool during the summer

    Been a while. Little disappointed as we asked for three different drinks and they didn't have them. Spot, hard to beat on the river. Ambiance and vibe, always a 5. Food from 3rd party, mmm mmm mmm !

    I have nothing bad to say about this place--at all. I went one time for a mother-daughter day and all I have to say is I LOVE THE ATMOSPHERE! If you live for the vibes (because me too!) this is your place to be. There are so many photogenic spots, the bathroom is super clean, and even that is such a "vibe." The food is a bit up there, but you can't go wrong when you're buying something to eat to avoid getting "too crazy," while drinking. They do have a good selection to choose from for both food & beverages. I had the pretzel bread and that, THAT- was the-bomb-dot-com. I love that they have a selection to cater to all customers; delta 8/9 for those that want to drink for a high, alcohol for those that want a buzz, virgin drinks for those that want to take in the scenery, and they even include your furry friends in case your dog is thirsty (or hungry).

    This was a great spot for a meet up with some classmates. The venue has plenty of outdoor seating near the Riverwalk and is an open area with tons of tables, chairs, and places to grab very mixed drinks beers on top and generous portions of food. I tried the chicken tenders and the serving almost looked like it was a mistake . I assure you it was not. They are just great about making sure you get your bang for your book when it comes to food. My classmates and I had a great time, literally just sitting and chopping it up versus being in a classroom . By the way, there's plenty of soft drinks and also healthier choices on food. All you have to do is scan the QR code at the table. All in all, it was a great time and definitely worth a stop by if you are with a group of friends or just looking to take a moment from walking

    Swing by the river...
    Ken S.

    This is such a relaxing place to visit, I will definitely be back here again...and especially now that the temperatures are lower, I can see myself sitting on one of there swings by the river while enjoying an adult beverage...no need to get up from your sit just scan the online menu and place your order for some food or drinks...they provide ice water and ice for those who prefer to drink good old water or for you four legged friends as well...they seem to be pet friendly as well... This place has such a calm and relaxing mood to hang out...hopefully next time I visit will be in the evening...I can also imagine being here during the Christmas holidays with all the Christmas lighting...

    Beer and strawberry margarita

    Super cool, off the beaten path, spot on the quieter section of the riverwalk. We were so glad we stumbled upon this place. The ambiance is fairy like and ethereal. They have cool decor, like giant dinosaur landscaping, hanging florals, and Chinese lanterns. Seating options include picnic tables, couches, swings, and hammocks. They also have a cool slide! They also had a band while we were there on a Sunday afternoon, which was awesome! They have a large drink menu, as well as food and a stuffed cookie and ice cream shack. I had a frozen strawberry margarita and it was boozy. A bunch of their cocktails are quite strong at 17% ABV. We did not try the food, but it looked good. You order at the counter or from a QR code at your table. It was a really chill spot to relax and enjoy some drinks along the riverwalk. Family and pet friendly. It is also super close to the museum of art (and the old town trolley stop if visiting the area).

    The food was delicious I recommend the pb&j burger the fries were bomb the caramelized onions don't even get me started only thing was the music was so loud but it was a great experience the mist and fans made it I was cool the whole time service was amazing the rainforest vibe was off the charts five stars

    Great place to hang out with friends, grab a bite to eat, socialize, and listen to music. Friday and Saturday nights are all the way live. It's such a great addition to the community. Check their website for events happening Monday-Sunday. There's a whole lot going on and will keep you entertained. We ordered food from Elsewhere Kitchen and got the Impossible Not A Burger, it was pretty good. Loved the spicy brown mustard. And the Nashville Chicken Sandwich was amazing. Loved the red bell peppers and the Nashville Oil & Dust. Delicious. The surrounding area is beautiful, especially at night. It's perfect for couples who enjoying holding hands while taking a stroll. The twinkle lights, sounds of nature, and music sets the perfect tone. Or, if you just want to sit and relax, sip and beer and take in the scenery, Elsewhere has these cute swing chairs that give a perfect view over-looking the river.

    Omg this place is so nice and beautiful! It's a Thursday after noon and there's really no one here which is is interesting! It's such a nice scenery and the flavors are so amazing ! Everyone is super nice and informing

    The ambiance of this place really stood out to me first. It is so relaxing and chill. Loved the option for THC infused drink and the swings that over look the riverwalk. Everything is so whimsical and interesting to look at. I love the vibes here I could hang out here all day! Only thing is, the food is a tad bit on the expensive side.

    We decided to stop at Elsewhere Garden Bar & Kitchen as it was on the way back to our hotel from the Pearl area and looked like a fun little stop. The decorations are very fun and colorful and really draw you in. As we had a big breakfast and had dinner plans, we decided to split the grilled chimichurri chicken sandwich and then each have a drink (a margarita for me). There are two separate lines for food and drink orders so we decided to start at the food line. The line went quickly and the gentleman at the counter was very friendly! We then ordered our drinks and realized they also had games so we checked out a little card game to play. The drinks were ready first and we just picked those up at the window. For a plain margarita with just a salt rim, I thought it was an odd color and that it also tasted a bit weird but luckily it wasn't a bad weird. The sandwich and fries it came with were delicious (it's easy to get sauces and silverware at the self serve area). All in all, this was a fun experience and we were really glad we stopped in.

    Ask the Community - Elsewhere Garden Bar & Kitchen

    Do you serve food until closing time?

    Always 30 mins before posting closing

    Is this a 21+ spot?

    Nope! Family friendly! They even have a kids play area/slide in the back left corner

    Does this place have TVs to watch sports? I'm looking to get a group together to watch the basketball game and want to make sure there are good TVs?

    They have one spot where they typically project the current game on a large wall, but it's a bit out of the way and it's the only "screen".

    Where is there free parking?

    There are free parking spots along the street but you've got to walk a bit but not far.

    Do you have boiled crawfish?if so price per lb

    As far as I know, they dont

    Don't think so but daily drink specials

    Does this place allow kids?

    Yes, we are all ages, all the time

    Does the bar play music?

    Do they have big screen tvs? Hoping to watch some major sporting events here.

    We have a very big projector

    Is this where luxury used to be?

    Yes

    Any reservations needed?

    No reservations needed however it can get packed. We got there around noon right after they opened, by the time we left at 2:00 ppl were looking for places to sit.

    What's the parking situation here?

    Some off street parking. Pretty easy to find a space

    Do we need to make reservations?

    No 🙂

    Can you smoke cigars there?

    10/10 !!!! What a…read moregreat experience! Me and my girls decided to try this place, we have heard good things and honestly, it was a hit! From beautiful decor with Mediterranean vibes to the warm of the staff and the quality of the good, our experience was incredible ! We all did the "Table of Joy" option of the menu, which basically is a 3-4 course meal with dessert, all chosen by the chef. You can express if you want something specific from the menu and they will make sure to bring it to you. On Sunday they have a wonderful wine special, all wine bottles are 50% off Everything we got served was outstanding, but my personal favorite were the fire roasted corn, the grilled cabbage and the lamb ribs. Outstanding service by our server, she knew the menu very well and guided us through it like a pro. Definitely a place to return! Check the food we got and get ready to drool over your screen!

    I came for happy hour on a Friday night and they were BUSY. We had a reservation but when we sat…read moredown and asked for the happy hour menu they said we would have to sit outside or at the bar for happy hour. Should have asked that during reservation but fine. It was quite warm outside and they only had one industrial sitting fan. At a place this nice I expected some ceiling fans to be honest. Or something a bit classier. Service was mediocre, a bit overbearing to be honest with multiple pushes for us to order more. We tried the butternut squash dip, the spicy feta, the hummus, roasted corn and the lamb ribs. We also got 2 spitz and 2 beer. Total for four people with tip was about 95 bucks which is fair. We had a vegetarian at our table so they brought out veggies to dip as well which was nice. My favorite was the roasted corn and the surprisingly the feta. It was enough to be full. Lamb was fatty but flavored nicely.

    One of the best restaurants I went to in San Antonio…read more The food was perfect. The deviled eggs were very good with a bit of spice. Definitely a surprise as an appetizer but good. We also had the snapper throats and loved them. The aioli was a great sauce with them. I had the gulf catch of the day, which was grouper, and it was so good. Great seasoning, perfectly flaky and moist, a nice crust on the outside. With that we had some jalapeno corn bread which was also delicious. Not too dry at all. I was hoping for it to be spicy but it was not. For dessert, I gad panna cotta and it was a great ending. Not too sweet, but the berries made up for that. The lavender meringue bites had a great crunch. Our server (Maya) was excellent. She was so friendly and helpful. Finally, the decor is unmatched anywhere. It used to be a brewery and they kept the old pipes and valves, which look very cool. It has a great vibe. I highly recommend. Without the need to, I'll mention anyway that it's not cheap. But it's worth it.

    Cool, old brewery turned restaurant- good vibe. Our server, Issa was very pleasant & so hospitable…read more Very interesting entrees, so only go if you're prepared to venture into some things u might not normally eat (different fishes, alligator, boar, fried bologna, etc) at least for us soft Californians! Really enjoyed the grilled oysters and the pork chop was amazing; maybe slightly overcooked but it was brined and so flavorful- nice & smokey; enough for 2. Pass on the summer squash- would be tasty if squash was shredded (like spaghetti) but cubed, the texture was off-setting. Drinks are fun - had the "madame" -yum. Fun spot - definitely would return.
