I genuinely thought this was going to be a sports bar vibe, and I was pleasantly surprised to find…read morethat it was a Biergarten and almost pub vibe I was meeting a friend for happy hour and some bites, and we landed on the spot. I will say the GPS got a little confused in the route for some reason and I nearly missed an exit and even the entrance (there was some construction going on) There is plenty of parking, but the parking lot was pretty full. You walk up and either walk through the courtyard style Biergarten with tables or you can go inside. It was an unseasonably nice day, so, we opted to sit outside There is a QR code to view the menus. There are entrees and plenty of apps/sharables. There is also a very extensive beer menu. Make no mistake, this is their bread and butter. They boast an imprecise "99 beers on tap." There's local brews, light and dark beers, hoppy, Belgium style, German style, wheat, etc etc etc. if that's not your speed there are cocktails and non-alcoholic options. Our server was fantastic. She was very kind and patient with us. We were constantly checked in on, but not in a hovering way or a pressure to leave. Our food and drinks always came out in a timely manner. She made us feel well taken care of The drinks hit the spot, and the food was tasty. It was definitely a chill vibe/hang. We were there for hours just catching up, and we saw other happy hours, birthday parties, dates, bachelorette parties, etc Some tips: I did order a couple beers that they were temporarily out of, but there are so many beers to pivot to. Also, our server was incredibly helpful in offering other suggestions, similar suggestions, and asking the right questions to help land in the next alternative They are not open Mondays, and they're only open until 11pm Tuesday-Thursday (and Sunday). Friday and Saturday they're open til 1am. Also, on Saturdays and Sunday's they offer brunch from 11am-3pm) The Reuben was surprisingly delicious Cheers!!

Hoppy Monk is one of our go-to places in San Antonio so as we had out of town guests for Easter, we…read moredecided to head here! It's been a while since have done brunch and o won't be in a hurry to return to brunch specifically The service was superb, we had a great server and he was absolutely on top of everything which was great! Beers were also great as was the mimosa I had and the kids we were with seemed to like their meals which came out last and they said theirs were hot - ours were not unfortunately. I had the Lox eggs Benedict and in retrospect should have sent it back as it was stone cold! My husband and our friend got the biscuits and gravy and also reported that they were cold - it was also served in a bowl which was a bad idea as the biscuits completely soaked up the gravy and resembled oatmeal by the time it hit the table! We got one meal - waffles and chicken to go and the waffles were inedible- poorly mixed, gritty and so much hot sauce in the mixture that they burned the back of the throat - they had to be trashed ! I love this place but won't return in a hurry for brunch - granted multiple dishes with eggs are hard to time right so we ended up with cold food that did however taste good

When we were in Las Vegas, a couple of my friends and I considered going to The Guest House, but…read moreultimately opted out because of the distance from our hotel. When we learned that the same restaurant was in Austin, TX, we decided to try it. Based on Yelp advice, Happy Hour was the way to go. The menu items were generously sized. We arrived at this dimly lit, sultry restaurant that had speak easy vibes. The stylish chandeliers and soothing colors adds to the ambience. The restaurant is quiet spacious with private dining areas. In addition, the DJ spins tunes from 7 PM during the week and 6 PM during the weekends. The music was quite engaging without being too overpowering. Now for the food and drinks...we ordered an assortment of food items...Cesar salad, hamburger, truffle fries, Thai fries, Brussel sprouts salad, salmon and tuna cones, street corn and chicken wings. The standouts included the Cesar Salad (with soft flavorful crouton pieces), hamburger (Juicy and thick), truffle fries and Brussel Sprout salad (very large size). We also had prosecco and a martini...chef's kiss to the mixologist. We were all pleased with our dining experience.

The food was phenomenal. We ordered the lamb, salmon, baby broccolini, and truffle fries, and every single dish was a 10/10. I also had the theatrical mushroom cocktail for my birthday, and it was absolutely worth it. The aromatic fog smelled incredible, and the drink itself tasted like a refreshing cucumber-jalapeño cocktail. My only downside was how close the tables are together. It can feel like you're part of the conversation at the next table, and I'm sure they can hear yours too. Aside from that, the food, drinks, and service made for an amazing dining experience. I'd definitely come back!

Appetizers the hummus were delish so gotta get those Halloumi was nice and crisper with the greens sauce too. Octopus was grilled well and beef turkey forget the name but was minced so well. Chicken shawarma was so tender and so were sauces for the pita. Dubai chocolate was the best dessert with fresh melted chocolate. Service was great even bagging our food. Reasonably price for what we ordered too. Will go back.

At first it looked deserted and no one was waiting for valet however once's we were inside there were a lot of people. Quite cozy and pretty. We had a reservation so found a table quickly. They did ask us to place our entire order in 1 sitting so we can sit back and relax. The humus was great and so was the mushroom skewers. We also liked their chicken l, the break was super yum and big. Overall we had a great time and didn't feel rushed. Will go again.

I went there only for the high end liquor, so I cannot speak for anything else. However, everything…read morethat I experienced was very very good, absolutely amazing. Hotel decor was a treat. The only negative, and by zero measure a bad thing, was that it is very difficult to see what all was available on the shelves. The alcohol menu was great , but did not have several great and rare things listed. Which from a person that travels the world for this type of experience, I fully understand that it is difficult to always list everything all the time. Which is why being able to see the bottles is so important to us patron's. Full 10 out of 10. Nothing about the place will make me even hesitate in returning.

There's also burger sliders and nachos with queso dip. But the pizzas really stole the show. The Butcher's Block and Pepperoni pizzas were both winners. I totally love the thin, crispy crust.

Looking forward to coming back soon!

Amazing dining experience!…read more We came to celebrate a birthday and our server started us off with a complimentary glass of champagne. We also ordered drinks-- the espresso martini was particularly delicious! Our servers were thorough, helpful, and kind. To start, we had the snapper crudo, the popcorn chicken, and the charred cabbage. The popcorn chicken and charred cabbage were amazing! So full of flavor and unique. The snapper crudo was just okay, nothing special. I would try the snapper tartare instead if I could do it over again. The steak was absolutely phenomenal-- one of the best steaks I've had. It comes medium rare and it was cooked perfectly. Loved the sauce and vegetables as well. Would definitely recommend and return for another meal.

Freaking amazing. Everyone was so nice. Food? The $18 sourdough was palatable and the $115 Wagyu ribeye was actually good. But the tasting menu?? We had to tap out on the THIRD dish. this shrimp was apart of it WHY DOES IT TASTE LIKE WILDFLOWERS?! Maybe I'm just not sophisticated enough for this kind of food. Parking is expensive because it is at the Pearl. I don't know if they have free parking.

Whether it's tacos, enchiladas, or anything else on the menu, the quality is consistently perfect every single time. What really makes this place special, though, is the staff.

If you're looking for a spot that delivers great food and even better people, this is it. I'll keep coming back for years to come!

I'm not exaggerating at all when I say they hit every single craving perfectly. From the very first bite, I knew these tacos were on a completely different level compared to anything I've tried before. The flavor, the freshness, the way everything came together--it was honestly incredible. I've had tacos from a lot of different places, but nothing has come close to tasting this good. I genuinely don't know what they put in these tacos to make them taste so amazing, but whatever they're doing, they've absolutely perfected it. The first time I tried them felt almost surreal. It reminded me of that iconic scene in the movie *Ratatouille* where the food critic takes a bite and instantly gets transported back to his childhood, remembering his mom's homemade cooking. That's honestly the closest way I can describe the feeling--it was like pure comfort and nostalgia all in one bite. On top of the incredible food, the **prices are amazing**. It's honestly surprising that food this good can still be so affordable. You're getting top-tier flavor and quality without paying crazy prices, which makes the experience even better. It's rare to find a place where the food is this delicious and the prices are still so reasonable. Overall, Briana's Taqueria completely exceeded my expectations. Between the flavor, the quality, and the value, it's easily one of the best food experiences I've had in a long time. If you're even thinking about trying it, I would **highly recommend it**--you definitely won't regret it.

I called to make sure they were open since yelp said it's a food truck. We ended up getting two chicken fajita sopes, a barbacoa torta, a taco de bistek, and a coke. It was $21, a little high, but i think it's because the sopes were so big. I got two, thinking they were maybe 3 inches wide, but they were huge. Both green and red salsa are great! Cash only!
