    One of my favorite breakfast places to come to. I always love that they add new seasonal items to their menu. The million dollar bacon and biscuits & gravy are soooo good! Our server was great! I had a hard time picking which fresh juice to get so she offered a free sample to help decide! The inside is kind of loud just because this place is usually always busy but still a good place to go for a breakfast/brunch place!

    The service was great they brought us coffee and the food was amazing, the pancakes were so soft and good!, I liked how the vibe felt calm and brunch time, I got the mint coffee and it was so good if your a fan of mint I recommend it.

    Kids French Toast and the Kids Half Waffle. Yes?  she loves their meals so much she had to chose and enjoy them both.

    The server Vanessa was awesome. She was patient when my young Grandaugther wanted to place her own order. She was respectful and very attentive. We loved the experience. The food was so good and the coffee was fresh and hot. Everything was clean and ready for us once we arrived at our table.

    End of day crew.

    Amazing service, great food selection, and relaxing atmosphere. We always enjoy this spot, the view is open and friendly.

    Shout out to London the host that helped our party of 12, and our server Vanessa! Both ladies were professional and super friendly. Although, it was raining the host handled making accommodation for all customers. The food is great as always, hot and fresh. First watch is always packed so y'all must be doing something right!

    Always a great brunch spot! There can be a wire sometimes but get ahead of The line by checking their website. Always love that they have a few seasonal options on the menu. My current favorite is the pumpkin pancakes. My go to order is the trifecta. Pancakes eggs and breakfast meat. Their house coffee is pretty tasty as-well. Staff is always fast and friendly!

    Market Hash...mushrooms/goat cheese/potatoes/red bell peppers/onion/2 perfect over medium eggs

    The food never disappoints at this place, today it was a little noisier than usual, but the food was fantastic

    Trifecta with waffle.

    Delicious food options. Comfortable seating. Good service, attentive. The French Toast was my favorite.

    Chimichurri Steak & Eggs Hash and Biscuits & Turkey Sausage Gravy With Eggs and Blueberry Lemon Cornbread

    Great servers, very kind and understanding. I don't like the food though. Gravy tastes bad, potatoes are seasoned bad. I am also very picky. Their cornbread is good. Amazing service though. Shout out Falgout she was very kind.

    Love this location. It's always cold, so bring a jacket! Food is delicious and fresh made. Health conscious. Great juice options.

    I love this place. It's clean, comfortable, friendly, and the food is so dang good. I love the lemon ricotta pancakes! But didn't get a picture last time... Everything is always fabulous and filling and we'll made. Service is always spot on. I am always happy and satisfied when I leave here. It's my favorite breakfast, brunch, and lunch place near the house!

    Hot Cocoa

    A bit pricey but so worth it! Everything we ate had amazing flavor. Service was quick and checked on us often. Highly recommend the million dollar bacon! Bright and lively for a nice morning!

    First time eating here and was not disappointed. Food was great and it was priced really well. It did take us a little while to be seen after we sat down but overall a good lunch spot.

We were given menus to look at while we waited so by the time we got to the counter, we were ready to order. The baked goods aren't on the menu, so when we walked by the counter filled with croissants, kouign amann, bear claws, apple pie, cheese cakes, it was hard to choose what we wanted!! We ordered: the Alamo Burger: a 8 oz wagyu beef smash burger , served with a fried egg, caramelized onions, cheese on a crispy croissant bun. It was incredible and worth the 15-20 minute wait! Almond croissant - a monster sized, flaky croissant with a generous almond filling. Guy Fieri highlighted this croissant on his DD&D show. It's probably a million calories not worth it! Tequila strawberry tres leches croissant - a small, cream filled croissant with strawberries. This was our least favorite. My husband didn't like the filling, I didn't like the sogginess of the croissant. Coffee - really good brewed coffee with free refills. We plan to go back a few more times while we're in town!!

It's a great option for those unable to decide on what to eat for breakfast. They have sandwiches, individual baked goods, à la carte items and hot and cold drink options as well.

It happened a couple more times during the meal, and I still found it a little off-putting. As for the food, breakfast was just okay. It wasn't bad, but nothing really stood out or made me want to order it again. The atmosphere, though, was the highlight for me. I loved the interior, it has a relaxed vibe and makes you feel like you've stepped back in time. Overall, it was a decent experience. I'd definitely be willing to give this place another shot for dinner the next time we're in San Antonio, since I've heard that's when they really shine.

In the lobby for checkin today, I had an instant headache because the fragrance was so strong. At that point they informed us that there is some additional fee per day on top of the already pricey room, a fee that they never disclosed before today. We continued upstairs, and I could hardly breathe in the elevator it was so scented. When we got to the room it was also heavily fragranced. I tried to call the front desk, and the phone in the room didn't work reliably. Our call dropped several times. They offered box fans for us to air out the room. However, when we opened the windows, a blast of cigarette smoke wafted into the room because it is directly above their designated smoking area. We asked the front desk for help, and they said not to worry, hardly anyone smokes in that area. Meanwhile we watched several people out there smoking almost constantly. They offered no other accommodation or help. Not worth it. Very uncomfortable and upset because this will ruin our vacation. Edit: 1 to 3 stars. The manager eventually heard our concerns, responding to a secondary issue with cigar smoke in our room after leaving windows open - their recommendation- to air out the room. They found us a different accommodation and made it more than fair and comfortable. Why not 4 stars? Because it took the entire first day to be resolved.

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.
