Brianna E.

Wow wow wow I had had such a great experience here. From the service to the food everything was a 10/10 I sat alone at the ceviche bar Saturday afternoon before the rush came in. I had no reservation but I would definitely recommend booking a reservation to secure a spot Parking is very limited, but there is street parking available To start I got the Texas oysters which comes with their seasonal leche de tigre drizzled in olive oil. It was so good I got two orders. Chef Santi was amazing at explaining the ingredients that go into the dish and also went into detail about how they source their oysters For another app I order the skewer de pulpo (octopus), I was blown away! Legitimately the most tender octopus I've ever had in my life. Chef Santi did an amazing job explaining to me how they prep and cook their octopus. I kid you not, very tender 10/10 I was recommended the Tataki Ceviche by one of the chefs. And wow, the way all the flavors blended so well together surprised me. The peanuts really elevated the dish, and execution was beautiful! I sipped up the bowl after I finished. You can tell they really take their time with each dish. For dessert I ordered Terremoto. Very rich with cacao, I don't think I've ever had such a rich chocolate dish before. If you do not like dark chocolate, this dessert is not for you. The ice cream that came with it was so delectable. You can tell by tasting this dish they really really really put their all when it comes to ingredients and execution. I was very impressed with my experience here. If you are ever in San Antonio area and love fresh seafood. Highly, and I mean HIGHLY recommend checking this spot out. They have bar seating, indoor seating, as well as patio seating. Reservations highly encouraged

We're in town for a work conference and saw this place was highly recommended. I've never had Peruvian food before, so I was excited to try everything there. Food was delicious. Every single dish was a hit. Fish tasted super fresh. So many flavors but somehow it all worked so well together. Service was great. I love that it felt home-y but also upscale at the same time. I can't wait to go back!!

Wow. A little taste of Lima in Southtown. Leche de Tigre lives up to the James Beard and Michelin buzz. We sat at the cebiche bar under the mural and worked our way through the menu. The ceviche was bright, citrusy, and topped with crispy sweet potato threads... exactly the zippy, punchy flavor Peruvian food is known for. The grilled fish crowned with caviar in a rich aji amarillo butter was the sleeper hit. It was silky, luxurious, unforgettable. The lomo saltado brought the umami---tender beef tenderloin, crispy potatoes, and charred scallions in a bold sauce. Don't skip the Inca corn to snack on or the pisco cocktails. The pisco sour was perfectly frothy and balanced. We closed with the cheesecake topped with fresh berries, a bright finish to a bold meal. Buzzing atmosphere, warm service, and food that punches way above what you'd expect. A gem.

Peruvian Pisco & Cebichería Some meals are memorable. Some meals are educational. And then there are meals that quietly recalibrate your entire understanding of what a restaurant can be. Leche de Tigre is the latter. From the moment we walked up, we were greeted by two incredibly warm and gracious young women who made us feel immediately welcome and thoughtfully guided us to the perfect spot. That tone, care, intention, and genuine hospitality, never wavered for the rest of the evening. Our server, Alexa, was exceptional. Knowledgeable without being rehearsed, attentive without hovering, and clearly proud of what she was serving. Behind the pisco bar, Sous Chef Santi took the experience even further, sharing the history of Leche de Tigre and the philosophy behind the food. This isn't just cooking, it's storytelling. Sustainability, respect for ingredients, and a deep desire to introduce Peruvian cuisine to people who may be experiencing it for the very first time... and falling in love immediately. We began with the traditional Peruvian corn nuts, which deserve their own warning label: dangerously addictive. For drinks, we ordered a pisco sour--perfectly balanced--and a glass of white wine recommended by Alexa, which paired beautifully with everything that followed. Then came something truly special: pine oysters. Available only briefly each year, these oysters feed on pine-rich algae, which gives them a stunning green hue and an elegant, vegetal depth. They were reminiscent of the famed French fines de claire vertes, briny, mineral, and utterly refined. Rare, intentional, and unforgettable. Next was the ceviche, and I don't use this word lightly: insane. Bright ahi, creamy avocado, and layers of citrus and heat that danced rather than overwhelmed. Every bite was perfectly balanced, fresh, vibrant, and alive. We followed with two skewers: one (name forthcoming) and the Wagyu, which nearly stopped conversation at the table. The marinade, whatever alchemy it came from, was divine. The dipping sauce was excellent, but honestly? I wanted to bathe in whatever the Wagyu had already absorbed. It was that good. Normally, I don't order dessert. But this experience demanded a proper finale, and the cheesecake delivered. Light, elegant, and refreshingly tart, not cloying or overly sweet, ending the meal on a note of restraint and precision. This was not just dinner. It was art, culture, hospitality, and passion, all moving in harmony. Leche de Tigre is a James Beard finalist, featured in the Michelin Guide, and after this experience, I can say without hesitation: It is the best restaurant in Texas. Hands down.

We almost didn't come. We made a reservation but it was a tad too far from the riverwalk but we decided to honor the commitment and we went. Half of our group Ubered and the other half did the 40 minute walk. I've never had Peruvian food before but this was INCREDIBLE. The four or five ceviche dishes have forever ruined what I think ceviche should be. They were all so good - very acidic and flavorful, with the accompanying spices and herbs and leaves. The service was so-so. It was a really busy night and I think they were understaffed. The corn nibblers they give everyone at the start of the meal are addicting. I can't wait for my next trip to San Antonio!

We went here for our anniversary and I was throughly impressed. They pulled out all the stops in making our night special. They gave us free champagne, shots, dessert, and even took a cute Polaroid picture of us! Incredible service. The food was even better. For appetizers we ordered Choclo frito (pork belly) and Wagyu-x bavette (wagyu skewer). For my main dish I ordered the Lomo Saltado. The meats were all so tender and juicy. The plates and presentation were immaculate. All my dishes were amazing. The restaurant is beautifully decorated with tigers and art. There is an open kitchen where you can watch the food being made. All in all, a superb experience that made us feel great! Highly recommend this restaurant.

We had a lovely time here. The menu is different, so you have to be prepared to try new things. It's also a good spot to go if you are comfortable sharing the dishes. So go with people you like! We had an array of food, cocktails and more! The bluefin tostada and fennel salad were both INCREDIBLE. Our waitress was so nice and helpful and the vibes of the restaurant were great!

My wife always finds the hidden gems, the best places to eat. Leche de Tigre is amazing, the food, the service, and the ambiance all help create such a unique and delicious experience. The Peruvian menu offers such an elegant taste and beautiful artistry of the owner who I discovered has a Peruvian and Mexican heritage. The place itself was an old home turned into a modern and peaceful restaurant. My wife ordered the ceviche which came with various seafood and sweet potatoes which mixed wonderfully. I ordered the chicken thighs and noodles which is a lovely combination and pays homage to the Chinese influence in Peru. Both dishes were so delicious and left us so satisfied. Our waiter Sean was very knowledgeable in both the menu and the culture, he made our conversation and experience very enjoyable. I would hope everyone that lives in San Antonio tries this place because it's a must.

Julio E.

I 100% recommend this place. I'm definitely going back. At first I thought it was going to be one of those spots that social media hypes up, and then when you get there it's nothing like people made it seem. But this one definitely exceeded my expectations. The food was amazing. We got the scallops and some kind of noodle or chicken dish, I can't remember. The scallops came on the shell, and I thought it was a tostada at first, so I ended up trying to eat the shell. That was pretty funny. The drinks were really good, not super strong but solid. The décor and seating arrangements were nice, and to top it off the staff was friendly.

no complaints here! their back patio has the cutest ambiance and the service was impeccable, they were extremely observant and on top of it. now the food... was out if this world! our favs were the complimentary corn nuts, wagyu-x bavette skewers, pulpo al olivo, and neikki cebiche.

Sylvia Y.

Made a last minute decision to come here for dinner and I'm glad I did! The inside of Leche De Tigre has tropical boho vibes. Very fun. I ordered the Amazonico ceviche, fennel salad, wagyu skewer, and Crema Volteada for dessert. All of the dishes were great but the ceviche really stole the show! Fresh fish and it paired nicely with the crispy chifle. Overall, the food is a little bit on the pricier side given the portions but a great spot for special occasions or date night!

Stephen C.

Amazing cebiches. All the ingredients are fresh and when assembled into the respective dishes they are mindblowing. Not only is the food so dang delicious each plate is a beautiful work of art. Everything I've tried has been a happy experience. They have indoor and outdoor seating options. My favorite place to sit is at the cebiche bar so I can watch the chefs at work. They service is always attentive and friendly. Leche de Tigre is a Michelin Guide restaurant, recognized as a "Recommended" restaurant in the first-ever Texas Michelin Guide.

Nicole Lynn P.

Leche de Tigre completely blew us away! We sat at the bar, which turned out to be the best seat in the house, watching the chefs plate everything right in front of us was an experience all on its own. We started with the Cebiche Criollo, a perfectly balanced with fresh fish, shrimp, octopus, and crispy calamari... every bite had that citrusy kick you want from good ceviche. The Tiraditos Tataki was light and bright, with yellowfin that melted in your mouth, but it does have a spicy kick. Then came the anticucheria skewers... the Wagyu-X bavette was insanely tender with the chimichurri and huancaína sauce, and the scallops were just as incredible, topped with a touch of parmesan and chalaca that tied everything together. Dessert didn't disappoint either. The Crema Volteada with cherimoya and berries was silky and not too sweet, way better than flan, and the Pie de Maracuyá might just be one of my new favorites... tart, creamy, citrus/passion fruit flavors, and perfectly finished with a berry compote. Almost like a key lime pie! Everything was unbelievably fresh, portioned just right for sharing, and priced fairly for the quality and experience. The ambiance is low lighting and definitely more adult friendly. Didn't see any children. Perfect for a romantic date night or girls dinner. The manager (possibly the owner) even stopped by to check on us, which says a lot about the care they put into this place. We already booked another reservation.... that's how good it was.

In town for a night on business and this spot was recommended by a bartender near my hotel. Took an uber over, and was seated right away (06/26 shortly after 8pm) at the ceviche bar. Hostess left me with a menu and some Peruvian popcorn. 25 minutes later after no one had greeted me or offered to take an order of any kind, I got up and left. Had multiple FOH staff taking care of the guests around me as well. Walked right by the same hostess who sat me on my way out and no one said a word. The food that was being made in front of me looked really tasty, so it's a bummer. read more

Great place to have Peruvian food! The ceviche and the tallarín saltado were delicious! I drank all the leche de Tigre! Good drinks, service was very good too. The only thing I didn't like is I made a reservation for the greenhouse and when I got there I was asked if I minded changing to the patio area, so we did since the greenhouse had a large group already. Other than that we really enjoyed this restaurant and will definitely be back for more authentic Peruvian dining. read more

Finally got to try Leche de Tigre and it did not disappoint!! I recommend making a reservation (or at least on a Friday night!) because this is a popular spot. I made a reservation the day of so outdoor patio was only thing available. It was hot out, but they do their best to make you feel comfortable with fans and misters. It'll be nicer to down outside come fall and winter. The service was really great, everyone at the restaurant was friendly and thoughtful. The food and drinks were delicious. They have complimentary canchitas (or corn nuts) at the table which took me right back to my trip to Peru I took several years ago. Their menu is best served family style which is my favorite way to dine! My boyfriend and I tried the chaufa and pulpo anticuchero. We enjoyed them both very much! Perfect amount of food for two. I also recommend getting one of their signature drinks while you're there. I got the Mucha Passion Sour and loved it!! Overall this is a great spot and I'm happy to see it thriving. The previous restaurants that were at this location have failed, but I think Leche de Tigre is here to stay! read more

Their food is on point, I went on a Tuesday and the restaurant was packed, but it didn't affect the service.

The food here was DELICIOUS! I ordered the Nikkei ceviche and it had the perfect kick to the juice added. The portion was bigger than I expected, especially for the price so I was very happy! My friends tried the fried rice and it was really good, not anything special though. Also ordered a pisco sour, honestly it tasted weird, wasn't a huge fan, and it's one of the speciality drinks and is on the happy hour list. The service was good, was checked up on regularly. It was a pretty gloomy day and the ambiance just felt weird and off, the server/chefs were very closed off, blunt, just not a happy, cozy or calm place I expected from its look. read more

Highly recommend this place for anyone trying to celebrate any special events or just wanting to try some new food! I'm from Peru and let me just say Peruvian food has always been my favorite growing up! Their food definitely takes me back! I would describe it as high end Peruvian food with a couple of tweaks from the chefs. It is so delicious, the lomo saltado had the most tender meat and the ratio of meat and vegetable was just perfect. The chaufa didn't have much rice but the pork belly and sausage in it was ridiculously flavorful it didn't even matter! Also recommend getting the tequenos as appetizer, we had some and it was just mouth watering. Best food in town 10/10!! read more

The food is very good and the service is okay. We have been there twice. The first time there was a private party so orders were delayed. The server did check in and let us know. We were also given an appetizer to make up for the delay. The second time the server was not as attentive and brought the wrong item; no biggie, we figured it was a language barrier. What we really did not appreciate was being charged $6.00 for extra rice. Given the cost of the plates and that rice is literally one of the least expensive items it seemed a bit much. read more

Rocotos Grill Peruvian cuisine

My son and I have been hungry for Peruvian food for a while now. We decided to give Rocoto's a try…read morebecause we like the sound of some menu items that we had never had before. The venue is very pleasant. We were the only ones speaking English during our visit. The Spanish I was hearing was not a local dialect. I feel like the other patrons were probably from Peru, although one man sounded Columbian. Anyway... we knew we were in for a treat. We ended up having a four course meal. The first course was a delicious (and huge) tamal wrapped in banana leaves. The masa was thick, very moist, and tasted like it was made with a very delicious broth. That was followed by anticuchos which are grilled slices of beef heart. They came with some slices of roasted potato. I thought they were seasoned really well, but my son thought they were too salty. For our main course, we both had cau cau (Peruvian beef tripe stew) served with a small bowl of white rice. It was very delicious. The trip was cooked perfectly- not chewy, but not gelatinous. For dessert, we each had an alfador (Peruvian short bread cookies filled with a layer of Dulce de Leche and topped with powdered sugar). They were sheer perfection! The shortbread was as soft and flaky as my Mother's. We each drank a Chicha Morado. It was a sweet purple drink with cinnamon in it. I loved it. We only came in contact with two of the staff. They were both super helpful and very pleasant.

It's been years since I last had it and went to some restaurant on Blanco and West Ave but it didn't remain in business for long. I ordered pollo a la brasa with black beans and green rice and a glass of Inka Kola, a yellow soda with a sweet, bubble gum taste. The chicken was very good and arrived with 3 salsas. For dessert, I ordered 2 alfajores to go. For those who don't know they are just the Peruvian answer to Oreo cookies and Pepperidge Farm Milano cookies but so much better than those. Dulce de leche between 2 thick and crumbly shortbread cookies. I would recommend putting them in the fridge before consuming instead of eating them at room temperature. Next time I come here I might try either the lomo saltado or some of their appetizers.

By the time we made it to the front of order line maybe 40 minutes had passed. But ladies and gents the wait is worth it. When we plated our trays on the table my family all had heart eyes, and had equally loved our first bites. Their brisket is extremely tender. It's beautifully sliced and made for an amazing welcome back to the South taste for me. I was in heaven. I particularly enjoyed having the fresh pickled red onion for fresh, zesty cuts through the abundance of other saltier elements on the plate. Their menu is slammin! Their sides, and sausages all had crafty ingredients. I enjoyed their spicy link options and their macaroni was delightful. Their BBQ sauce was a nice 4/5 but certainly did the job. As a native Texan who's had their fair share, this was easily some of the best barbecue I've ever had. Top 5 top 5 top 5. I'm of course coming back and looking forward for more banana cream pudding especially. They were small, slightly sweet, and had great balance with the vanilla wafer ratio. That whip cream on top too had me hooked. I couldn't have asked for a better welcome back meal for the bold Texas cuisine, hospitality, and novelty animal and cowboy decor.

This hidden gem may…read morebe fairly new, but it's already making a name for itself with its fresh and creative Mexican-Cuban fusion. The atmosphere is simple, elegant, and inviting. Whether you're planning a date night, meeting up with friends, or looking to impress a business client, this spot delivers. I highly recommend starting with the Guacamole con Masitas. What a fantastic fusion! The fresh, traditional guacamole is topped with crispy fried pork bites that add the perfect savory crunch. The portion is just right for sharing as an appetizer. For the main course, don't skip the Tacos de Pescado and Tacos de Camarón. Each order comes with three generously filled tacos bursting with flavor. The fish tacos are finished with a delicious chipotle mayo, while the shrimp tacos feature a rich macha mayo that takes them to another level. Although they don't serve alcohol, their selection of handcrafted mocktails is impressive and pairs wonderfully with the food. The hardest part of the evening was deciding what to order. Their menu has so many tempting options that we were already talking about what we'll try on our next visit. I honestly don't think you can go wrong here. One of the highlights of the experience was the chef personally coming out to ask how our meal was. That kind of hospitality is becoming rare, and it made the evening feel even more special. Prices range from moderate to slightly upscale, but the quality, presentation, and service make every dollar worth it. We walked in without a reservation and were fortunate to get seated, but I definitely recommend making one. This place fills up quickly during dinner hours. We'll absolutely be back.

The rice in the paella was on point, crispy bits and all. Atmosphere is lively but not chaotic -- great for a relaxed dinner that stretches into a couple of hours. Dim lighting, nice energy, and you can actually hear the people at your table. Service was smooth and friendly, no rushing, just good pacing so you can enjoy the meal. If you're in San Antonio and craving real Spanish vibes -- tapas, sangria, paella, the works -- Toro delivers without the tourist-trap nonsense. It's become one of my go-to spots when I want quality food and a chill night out. Fair prices for the quality, clean spot, and that certified Spanish restaurant stamp means they're doing it right. Highly recommend. We'll be back for sure -- 5 stars, no notes. Go hungry and bring friends to share everything. Toro Kitchen + Bar - do it.

Service was very friendly and helpful. We started out with the bacon wrap dates. They were a little mushy but had good flavors. I did end up getting one of the paella dishes. It came with seafood. The dish was OK, but did not have tons of flavor. The shrimp looked like they were boiled with no seasoning. The dishes, massive, and is more than enough for two people. I was a little disappointed as it was just bland. We finished the evening with Cheesecake, which was good. The restaurant is very interesting and has some cool decor. It was live flamenco, dancing, and music during dinner. That was a really nice touch. My guest had a steak that he said was very good. I might choose a different paella on my next visit.

We tried the Pollinator Tequila and it was delicious. The candied bacon was perfect and the Lobster Bisk was so delicious with a little bit of fresh grated Parmesan cheese on top. The Salmon and shrimp were out of this world. I could have eaten just that and been satisfied. The skewers of flame grilled meat (Filet, Beef Rib, New York and many others) were all mouth watering and just kept coming. The atmosphere was cozy and upscale. Dim lighting and cozy ambiance made for a perfect relaxed dining experience. Our waitress Susie was so personable and attentive she was the cherry on top of a perfect evening! We will definitely be back!

My husband took me to Avenida Brazil for a birthday‑month dinner, and since we usually go to Chama,…read morehe thought it was time I tried this spot. We visited on March 12 at 5:45 PM, and the restaurant wasn't busy, which made the atmosphere calm and easy. The first thing I noticed was the salad bar placement -- it's positioned right by the front door, which felt unusual compared to other Brazilian churrascarias I've visited over the years. Still, the offerings were solid: the grilled pineapple was great, and the brûléed bacon was honestly the standout. They even had ceviche, though I don't eat seafood. We were seated in a tucked‑away room, and it took a bit for our server to reach us. The creamy au gratin potatoes and the cloud‑soft bread were delicious. Where the experience dipped was in the gaucho rotation -- not all of them found us, so we only tried about 10 meats, with 7 being genuinely tasty.

Delicious. The monfongo was the perfect texture and flavors. ¡La salsa al ajillo estaba deliciosa!…read more Great service with Felipe. He was attentive to reviewing the menu, informing me of options.

I'm sad I didn't take pictures! They would be a total thirst trap for my foodie peeps out there!…read more We enjoyed the buffet today at Luna Rosa. There was a lot of variety (pechuga ajillo, chuleta, pernil, arroz con habichuelas, arroz blanco, salad) available to us on the buffet. Right away, our waiter brought sopa de platano, which was part of the buffet as well. Service, from start to finish, was excellent! Dessert is even part of the meal - the buffet had chocolate cake and fruit salad (with fresh mango, apple, pineapple, and watermelon). The restaurant is nice, feels like a family vibe. Great music playing in the background and smiles all around. Loved it!

By the time we were back to my truck, we were exhausted and hungry. Since we had always meant to try El Bucanero, we decided to head over and eat there. It turned out to be a very good decision. The venue itself is really festive. The music was really nice. It just felt like we were at some kind of a fiesta in Mexico. The menu was EXTENSIVE. There were hundreds of different ways to eat seafood in different combinations. It was a bit daunting. We had to look some words up and translate them. The server also helped us with our selections. For example we said we wanted ceviche. He recommended his favorite. It was extra spicy and delicious. My son ordered one of those huge schooners full of mixed seafood in a spicy sauce. He liked it a lot. I had pulpo a la Veracruzana. It was super delicious. I liked that it used vegetables that were slightly pickled. We will definitely go back there. Now that we know a place that has delicious fresh seafood, we have a lot of things to try.
