    Quail Poppers
    Auston P.

    QUAIL QUAIL!! Oh my Quail. Atmosphere is amazing at this hotel. Didn't have drinks so I'll get to it. Food: Quail appetizer- small dish but oh man the best quail I've ever had. Super juicy and balanced with flavor. This was a nice surprise! Service: Super solid

    Great restaurant inside the Gunter Hotel. Very cool vibe, and the food is very good. We had dinner before a show at the Majestic and enjoyed the prefix pre show meal. I highly recommend enjoying a meal here.

    Pork Schnitzel
    Eric B.

    My wife and I headed downtown a couple of hours early before a show at the Majestic Theatre so we could grab dinner, and Jots at the historic Gunter Hotel, right across the street, was an easy choice. It was our first time visiting, and since it was a Thursday around 5 p.m., the restaurant was quiet with only two other couples dining. It made for a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere to start our evening. My wife ordered one of their specialty cocktails, which came topped with basil oil drops. The presentation was eye-catching, and the aroma alone was worth the order. I had to try a sip, and it was excellent. I went with a Hefeweizen myself, and it paired nicely with the meal. For dinner, my wife chose the pork schnitzel, and I went with the Apple & Sage Texas Hen. She really enjoyed the schnitzel, perfectly cooked, served over a bed of spaetzle, and complemented by an incredibly flavorful gravy that she couldn't stop talking about. My Texas Hen was beautifully plated and even better to eat. The meat was tender and juicy, served over creamy mashed potatoes and topped with a delicious apple compote. I absolutely loved every bite. If you're headed to the Majestic, I highly recommend arriving an hour or two early and having dinner at Jots. You won't be disappointed! And if you still have room after dinner, there's a charming little bakery next door with some amazing pastries, perfect for a sweet finish to the night.

    Never have I ever paid $31 for a hamburger, but also, never have I ever been treated to such an elevated service experience at a restaurant. Jots is part of the new multi-million dollar remodel of The Gunter Hotel. They told us mine was their first-ever reservation, so they really rolled out the red carpet. Our server, Juan, took care of us very well. Our water glasses were never empty. When I told him a family member had worked as a server in that hotel back in the 1940s, he told the manager and she came over to hear the story (and to tell some she had heard about this historic place). The burger was good, and the fries were really good--perfectly seasoned and crunchy. Our table was treated to two desserts, on the house, to celebrate being their first reservation. They've been open for a while, but I guess we were the first to call ahead and reserve a table. Being right across the street from The Majestic, this is a great option for theater-goers who want a nice meal before their shows.

    Beautiful decor and relaxed ambiance. The food did not amaze me. I got the pork schnitzel and it was okay not great. Service was great, the staff is welcoming and attentive. I will go back to try a different dish.

    Bordeaux Braised Short Ribs

    The short ribs were excellent, but the overall experience fell short. Service was slow, and while our server was kind, the rest of the staff was disappointing. The $30 valet charge for restaurant guests also feels unreasonable, especially when many other hotel restaurants offer complimentary parking. The restaurant and hotel both have a lot of potential, but the customer experience and overall hospitality are currently lacking, which takes away from what could otherwise be a great dining experience. The restaurant itself is very pretty and I loved the new look but unfortunately it was a miss and I wouldn't return.

I forgot the exact flavors I got, but I remember trying pistachio, Dubai chocolate, and one other flavor. They were all really good. Since I was hungry, I also grabbed a chocolate croissant, which was delicious as well. I forgot to ask them to heat it up, but it was still very enjoyable. On the side, I tried their ice cream, and it was honestly some of the best ice cream I've had in San Antonio. I believe I got pistachio, taro, and coffee on the bottom, and they were all great. At the end, I also got Turkish coffee just out of curiosity. It's not in the picture because I purchased it after I finished my dessert. The coffee was very strong, with a unique flavor that made it fun to try. One small suggestion: the coffee was very very hot and nearly overflowed the small cup, so it might be helpful to add a "cup sleeve", use a slightly bigger cup, or offer an option to make it a bit cooler (adding an ice or two). Overall, this is definitely a cool place to hang out, especially if you enjoy sweets, coffee, and trying different flavors. Highly recommended and will be back for more!

They have a storyline to create a plot for the "dessert" creations. The pastry chefs interweave sweet, salty, sour, spicy, and umami throughout the evening AND is also paired with a drink per dish. They tell you how to eat the dish for maximum enjoyment of the desired taste experience. They do an excellent job of creativity, presentation, and combination of flavors. Such an intimate setting. After it's all done, they do part you with a BIG fortune cookie with a handwritten fortune! This is the time where you are allowed to pull your phones out. And you can also step in the kitchen area and take pics. Menu does change. I'd definitely go again!

I'm vegetarian and pregnant so my menu had to be modified but I was so blown away by the fact that they were able to accommodate for me and took such care in making sure my plates met the caliber and intended feeling/taste of the non vegetarian dishes. Same with the drink pairings, although mine were non alcoholic, it wasn't just a blah substitution, they really put a lot of care into making sure the drink matched the energy and vibe of the alcoholic version. My husband and I loved the story telling that went with each dish that described the chef's intentions and the products used for each bite. This was our first fine dining experience and we couldn't have been more satisfied. We were celebrating my husband's graduation and they even had a little card for him signed by the chefs! So cute! I'd definitely recommend checking this place out for a special occasion, or if you're just curious about what a Michelin Star dessert restaurant is all about.

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!
