    Gosh, such a fun place, maybe we even had too much fun... Drinks are very tasty and unique, you really can't go wrong. And there are even fun options if you don't like rum! The bartender is so nice and we also had conversations with others at the bar. This spot is so fun to hang out at for a couple hours, definitely add it to your list!

    After doing the River Walk cruise and it was a great way to wind down. I ordered the Missionary Downfall. The drink was smooth, tropical, and well balanced without being overly sweet. I love the crushed ice that they use. Easy to sip and refreshing, especially after being out on the water. The atmosphere fit the tiki theme perfectly and felt relaxed without being over the top. Service was friendly and the location right on the River Walk made it an easy stop. A fun place to grab a drink and take in the vibe after a cruise or a long walk along the river.

    For those who know me and see me barely writing this, YES, it is late! ;) We went to San Antonio with a large group of friends and we try to plan events and whatnot. We had just finished a ghost tour and someone mentioned that some of our friends were meeting at this place. I am 99% it was impromptu. The place was amazing and gave us this section. We filled up all the seats and the little love tunnel or whatever that end one was. I will say, being the social butterfly that I am, I was visiting with everyone and EVERYONE was enjoyng themselves. What is it about a tiki place that makes everyone so happy. You just cannnot be sad at a tiki place. I was happy that one of our firends found this plce and truly enjoyed myself. Great drinks and the staff was fantastic! Thank you for being so great!

    What a fun place to grab a cocktail and an appetizer!! We were able to sit overlooking the river and were greeted immediately by Kiara who was so sweet & pleasant!! We ordered the coconut shrimp (delicious) and we each had the Painkiller. The drinks were delivered in tropical glasses and didn't disappoint!! We really enjoyed our time here!!

    We were barhopping along the Riverwalk and came into this tiki oasis. Set up like a Tiki speakeasy. This location is small, but comes with a lot of theming and a cute tropical vibe. There is very limited seating, but we were fortunate enough to be able to grab a spot outside overlooking the river walk. I will say inside definitely has a smell to it. Perhaps the drains haven't been cleaned as much as they need - but a smell lingers in the air. I had the Saint Lucius fashioned and it was OK. My husband got the eight year Appleton's rum with some Coke and it basically tasted like water. So the quality of the drinks is questionable.

    Hugman's is probably one of my go to spots when I'm bar hopping downtown or have out of town friends to show around. Such a cute little tiki bar that immediately takes you to another place when you walk in. It's right on the riverwalk and has seating inside and outside available. They have the cutest tiki drinks and are all hand crafted and made to order. Most come in picture worthy tiki cups and I've even ordered one that came with fire! It's worth noting that the bathrooms are always clean and beautiful decorated. Definitely a regular in my rotation!

    We live in San Antonio and we wanted to go see the holiday lights on the river walk. As we were walking on the river walk we ran across Hugman's Oasis tiki bar so decided to check it out. The inside is not too big so our group sat in the outside area. Beautiful tiki bar inside and out. Super fun holiday drinks. We all got a different drink from the holiday menu and everyone enjoyed their drink.

    VERY AWESOME PLACE! Though small, the place offers a very nice vibe. We were in San Antonio during the coldest week this year and this place was a nice slice of oasis. I can just imagine the patio on a busy day, located at an intersection of the river. Lots of people watching and some great beverages! Come visit!

    This place is fun to just be at. The decor makes a really cool ambiance. The drinks are delicious. They also have food which ive ordered a couple things and they did not disappoint. The bartenders are nice and they make good recommendations for any drinks you might want to try.

    Such a fun spot on the river. Loved the tiki vibes and the Texas Sun was my favorite drink in San Antonio! Don't skip on the fries, they were the perfect snack.

    While on vacation this week we found this gem on Yelp. We love a good tiki bar and Hugmans was great. Our waitstaff and bartender was helpful. We got the chicken appetizer and it was large & delicious. We may go back before we go home.

    Well, the first thing I look up in a city I'm traveling to for work is the local tiki bar! Hugman's Oasis did NOT disappoint. I dragged my team along with me, and nobody was complaining - we had a fabulous time. Cocktails were flawless, and you truly cannot beat an interior by Bamboo Ben. See ya next year, San Antonio!

    Back in San Antonio and first stop, Tokyo Cowboy and dinner was served!…read moreAfter settling into our Airbnb, Tokyo Cowboy came up highly recommend. I'm glad they had room for us but, it's still safe to make reservations. We did not know they are a tapas style restaurant, but that didn't deter us.

Dumplings - 9/10 Gulf Shrimp & Noodles - 10/10 Blistered Green Beans - 10/10 Ramen - 9/10 Service was great. It's a casual atmosphere, but perfect for an intimate date night.

A bit messy to eat but I would get this again. Udon noodle with pork belly: noodles were kind of irregular in lengths. I really liked the sauce with it but it felt like it was missing something. Light dish. Tc double cheese burger: very strong flavors, somewhat sweet. Dense/heavy dish . Our waiter was quick and friendly. The restaurant lighting was dimmed and gave a more intimate /bar environment. I think the ac was broken here because it was very warm and they had fans going on around the room. I think this place would be good for someone who is prefers an American fusion cuisine that leans heavily on the western style dishes. The fusion elements were cute but I still left unsatisfied but still full. We did not park. We walked here right from the river walk. Not a bad place to go if you arrive in town after 9 pm.

You go way to the back and down a steep flight of stairs. My son, his wife, and I left my wife and grandbaby in the saloon and headed down. When you get down there, you are suddenly in a beautiful Tiki bar with so many amazing things to gawk at. It sort of felt like waking up in OZ. We were the first people there, so we got to sit at the bar and watch our drinks being made. They have about 15 or so different specialty tiki drinks. Each one comes in a particular piece of glassware. I don't know how the bartender keeps them straight. He was constantly pouring different things into a shaker. Then he would shake it and pour it into the glass that was already filled with crushed ice. One of the drinks even had a smoking cinnamon stick. My drink was really good. It was the Three Dots and a Dash. It came in a barrel and was decorated with a skull toothpick that had three cherries and a piece of pineapple to represent the dots and dash. It was super strong! I was ready to risk it all and go for another drink, but it had gotten packed inside the bar. We could tell the bartender was stressing. They really need two for times like that. My wife spends the night at my son's house in New Braunfels every Thursday to give them a date night. Evidently, this is where they always go. I can certainly see why!

This is not a place to have a quick drink, as the bartenders really craft the art of the cocktail you order (expect 15-20 min for 2 drinks). I would love to come back and try more!

    Update to first review below, rating updated from a 3 to a 5 star (drinks & bartender would get 10+…read morestars if we could rate that high): Saturday night: Went back for after dinner drinks at the Downstairs (a "speakeasy" throwback, look up the history of the place to see why). Drinks were AMAZING! Bartender Rob made the best Negroni I've ever had. I asked him to use whatever gin he thought best--result was an artistic smooooooth full-bodied drink. Told him when I was done I'd lick the glass if it wasn't considered so uncouth for a 'mature' lady like myself to do so Hubby's Buffalo Trace bourbon old fashioned was also outstanding. Rob was the bartender last night who did such a great job, and his work was even better tonight. We highly recommend The EsquireTavern for excellent cocktails. We love the long wood bar and high copper ceiling upstairs, but love the intimate speakeasy atmosphere downstairs even more. We'll definitely be back every time we're in San Antonio! First review, Friday night: Drinks were great (Manhattan and Bourbon Old Fashioned). REAL drinks, no complaints at all about those. And the bartenders were very friendly and helpful. Those aspects of the Esquire get 5+ stars from us. But the appetizers were not good, close to inedible. It was about 8:30pm or so, so maybe they were getting ready to close out the kitchen but the chalupitas with chicken tasted like rubber, and no flavor at all. The seafood platter had something in it that was breading with shell inside, but no meat of any kind. We couldn't figure out what it was supposed to be. The shrimp was good and the fish was good but those other things... We'll always love the drinks, the long wooden bar, and the ambiance at the Esquire Tavern, but we'll eat somewhere else and come here for before or after dinner drinks. (See update above to this review for when we returned the next night for after dinner drinks.)

However, if you come in from the street, you need to walk to the other side of the restaurant to get a table.. We ordered a limonada with prickly pear, fried quail, lamb burger, and bison burger. The burgers were quite big and taste really good but the bison burger meat kind of fell apart too easily. The ricotta cheese on the lamb burger was quite strong. They came with a few spicy pickled veggies as a side. The limonada was as expected . I highly recommend a fried quails legs. We enjoy eating quails, but it's usually bittersweet relationship because of all the small bones however their appetizer for fried quail legs is super user-friendly. If you are scared of choking on small bones, these will not give you that kind of worry at all. We were impressed on how well-made and easily eaten they were. Our waiter was very friendly and he checked on us a few times. He was also the one that suggested the fried quail legs. We walked here .
