Visited Liberty Bar recently, and as always, the experience was exceptional. The staff were welcoming and attentive, and I continue to appreciate the restaurant's unique aesthetic. From the illuminated wall displays to the curated books and eclectic décor, the entire space has an incredible atmosphere. We enjoyed great cocktails and even better conversation. Easily one of my top favorite spots. read more

Been a while, 2 years. Nothing has changed... SUPER! Easy dinner selection - lamb sandwich for myself. OMG Cin had portobello sandwich and said MMM MMM MMM Our host and customer service - perfect. Easy to talk most of the time, but when it's packed, can be challenging. Cool upstairs, downstairs and patio areas.

Love the Liberty Bar! It has great history. Presently, it's a nice restaurant/bar with many choices for dining. Their signature cocktail menu is also extensive and I've enjoyed every drink I've had here. On the last visit, I had the cilantro & crème soup. Sounds strange, but was delicious. Servers have always been friendly and attentive. It is a must try! read more

Great place to take guests when they are from out of town. Very quaint and in a historic area with so much charm. Food took awhile, bench's and seats are hard, so bring your own padding if you have a bad back like me, and it may get kind of noisy by the bar, but worth the discomfort. Everything was great, my favorite entree was the mushroom burger. But you must try the Coconut pudding dessert, gluten free and amazing, I would come just for that, though $8 is kinda steep. Nice menu. Parking can be a challenge but there is additional free parking across the street. Outside seating area but not sure you can be served there. Climb upstairs or take their elevator to the main dining area. The first floor was closed. Make reservations, limited seating for groups, we had 5 and didnt want to chance it on a Sunday morning brunch. You can order from the reg menu as well as brunch Mimosas were half priced. read more

I totally forgot to write this review till now.. But this was a cozy little spot my mama and I came for lunch, when we came up to San Antonio for the day. The service was amazing! The food was so delicious and good! I can't wait to come back again one day when I'm back in San Antonio! read more

Well, the bartenders seemed more interested in flirting with the female guests. the drinks were ok, but was overwhelmed by their conversations on who they would have sex with and what they'd do to them. I guess they didn't realize we could hear them and we spoke Spanish. Food menu looked good but I just had enough of the machismo read more

We went to Liberty Bar on a Sunday for their brunch and I have to say I was a bit disappointed with the food. The service was great but the food tasted cold. I did let the server know and he offered to remake the meal but at that point I was kind of over the French toast so he took it off my bill. My sisters chilaquiles looked delicious. My mom stated her food tasted cold also. I'm not sure if it just happened to be that way but I will say the service and atmosphere was great was just hoping for better food. read more

Had a great meal and a yummy drink here. Someone told us to come here and we were happy we did. I had a Lamb burger, potato salad and the Botanica drink. The burger was perfectly cooked and the potato salad was fresh and crunchy. The bar itself is old, pretty and has a great atmosphere. The wait staff couldn't been nicer. If I wasn't here from out of town, I'd be eating here every night! read more

From the moment we pulled up, we were charmed by the setting. Situated in an old Victorian with a lovely outdoor courtyard, this place passes the vibe check. We were seated upstairs by the window, which was a lovely place to sit, even on a cold, cloudy day. We started with cocktails off the list, which were cleverly named after the NATO phonetic words to spell out Liberty. I did the Romeo, and my friend did the Tango. Both were good. The Romeo was smooth and infinitely drinkable. The Tango was a burst of the charred rosemary up front with a sweet, drinkable finish. I ordered a sourdough margarita pizza off the specials menu, and it had the most unique but pleasant flavor. I actually ate all the crust for the pizza! My friend had a hamburger, which she said was really good and very filling. I liked this place a lot, and I will definitely come back when I am in San Antonio next. I'd love to do a brunch here! read more

Have not been to Liberty Bar in several years. Following an event on 6 March at the Alamo a friend, his wife and I decided to have a late lunch/early dinner. Service was friendly and effective. The room is pleasant with background music at a proper level and enjoyably unobtrusive - not bland, just right. The Hazy IPA was very good. Two of us ordered the Chili Relleno and the other the salmon. All was considered to be really good. Since we arrived at 3PM parking was not a problem, although I can understand when the house is fuller it would be a problem. I'll be back sooner rather than later. read more

The old convent building is cool to explore and is something to see. But the bar upstairs is basically a dive bar in need of an upgrade to make this place really shine. read more

So this is a place that's probably better for drinks and apps. We were walking all along Southtown and decided to drop in for some dinner. I had the fettuccine Alfredo and it was subpar. They say it's fresh which I believe but simply was not very flavorful. I didn't drink but my boyfriend did and said the cocktails were great! Service was good- and the hostesses were very polite and friendly. Besides that- nothing to really write home about. Would be great place for a first date as they have very romantic lighting. read more

If you are a Couple wanting a drink and an appetizer for a rendezvous, I think you'd give this place 5 stars for Ambiance and friendly service. But we had a mixed group of 11 ( 17-70) and the consensus was that the food was underwhelming. It sounded good from the menu and checked the ingredients boxes but it lacked flavor and quality. I don't think anyone finished their Meal. Nice place good location with Quality prices for not so quality product. Not the best choice for our family meal together. read more

The food came out of the kitchen undercooked and cold - no way to serve tenderloin (ordered medium rare), mashed potatoes and vegetables. It was returned to the table with the steak a little over-cooked, the mashed potatoes good and the vegetables too oily. One dinner on the table being eaten and the other back and forth, kitchen to table to kitchen to table - we are not having dinner together! The server did her job and was not unpleasant, but she was so matter-of-fact, robotic about serving. She did the minimum required, ineffectual. It was so loud that my wife and I had to lean into the table to hear one another, to have dinner conversation. Not a very good way to spend dinner or my money. Several years ago, we'd come to Liberty Bar and had a nice dinner - it was loud upstairs and staff was nice enough to move us downstairs. Downstairs wasn't an option this time and I'm sorry, I wish it had been. Dinner for 2, which we didn't finish and went in the bin, with drinks: $125.00 plus tip. read more

Ambiance : wonderful! Service: reluctant to serve us at 10ish, not supper friendly and came around every so often but not often enough. Food: calamari was so tough and didn't taste good. It was stringy and stretchy- it was terrible The goat cheese was great, didn't come with enough bread. Meatballs were good. Coffee was gross Pizza was no that great either I hate when people in the service industry get upset when you come in 2 hours before closing. You could tell they didn't want to serve us. I use to like the Liberty bar- I won't be coming back here. It's pricy for strange food options at night. They have a night menu that you have to stick too and it was no good. I won't be back here. They have gone so far down hill. The service use to be great too Not anymore. I don't like feeling like I'm a bother. That's what I felt like with my friends the moment we walked in. Maybe they will shut down and someone else will take that building over. Someone who gives a darn about their restaurant and how it's run at night. read more

Always enjoy dining in here! The ambiance is elegant yet casual, and the service is always fantastic. Happy hour drinks are $8 and well worth too! Tried the chicken achiote, and it was SO moist and soft! One of the best pieces of chicken I've ever had, and seasoned well too. The rice and sautéed cabbages and onion were to die for!! read more

A converted convent has found a new life spreading the word of great food to the people. Low lit with international and local decor pepper the historic building. You may sit in a pew or belly up to the bar. It is an interesting commentary on today's landscape, culinary harmonization, and religious dichotomy. Service was friendly, albeit a bit slow. Everything we ate and drank was worth the wait. Go hungry. Get the bread and then get some more. Drink all the drinks. We enjoyed the Romeo and Echo. The shrimp tacos plate was licked clean. The handmade pasta received raves of "literally the best I've ever, ever had in my life" from my SIL, and the potroast juices were sopped up with all the scraps of bread by the others at the table. The beef and lamb burgers were both enjoyed, but the lamb received the edge. The Beirut Flashback was just that- a Vaseline memory of tastebuds past. The hummus, garlic and chickpeas stole the show with the pita. We rolled out very full and wanting more. I'd love to go back and sit on the patio. (Fair warning, dining is up a flight of stairs) read more

The location is this places upside. The old church is gorgeous and a lot of potential. The restaurant however is kind of a stain. The food was really sub par. The tortillas were the quality of a store brand, the beans were okay but very salty and dry. The salsa's spicy ness was non existent and your only other option is an old bottle of chalula or Tabasco. The mimosa was weirdly powdery, powdered oj? Service was really lazy. Our server was snarky, pushy and not plus. Ambience could be nice if you weren't sitting 6 inches from your next table, way too cramped to have a nice conversation without broadcasting it to the six tables around you. read more

I haven't been to Liberty Bar since they moved to this location many years ago. The restaurant is located in a former convent, so it definitely has a unique atmosphere. Whether you are out for a casual meal with friends, or looking for a unique date night, this is the place for you. We had the falafel pita and the grilled portobello sandwich. The falafel pita, was just so-so. The falafel was a bit dry and was kind of on the bland side. However, the hummus and tabbouleh were both delicious. The portobello sandwich was amazing, and my mouth is watering now as I write this! The mushroom was grilled to perfection, and the toppings were all fresh and flavorful. The sauerkraut added a nice tangy touch, and the gruyere cheese was melted perfectly. I also had the potato salad, which was also great. It was creamy and flavorful, and it was the perfect side dish for the sandwich. Good food, great atmosphere, and great service. read more

I like that this place has its own parking lot; always a plus when downtown. The interior is unique with a good blend of old and stylish furnishings. Good vibe inside with appropriate noise levels for conversing. Service is great! You're warmly greeted upon entering and we had no wait time. They have happy hour from 3 to 6 daily! On Thursday they have 1/2 price margaritas. The menu is extensive for any picky eater. There's so much to choose from. I finally settled on the handmade fettuccine with olive oil, thyme, and garlic. It was delicious! Very light and flavorful. We had ordered the calamari. It was rather bland; not what I would have expected for $17. Everything else was good and that made up for it. I want to come back and try their salmon encilantrado read more

What a cute spot! I've passed by this pink house on the corner several times, but never got around to trying it until recently. For some reason, I always assumed they just had drinks but they are a full-blown restaurant and bar. And the menu is extensive! We started with the meatball appetizer, and... these were maybe some of the best meatballs I've had. It was served in tomato sauce with toast and it was gone within minutes. The homemade fettuccine caught my eye, and I tried the Alfredo sauce and added shrimp. It was tasty and the shrimp were nice and big as well. For us, the drinks were a little hit or miss. We had a couple of beers on draft which were fine, but they weren't very cold. A friend ordered a Moscow mule and it was served in a glass and not a copper mug. However, I tried a cocktail called the Tango, and it was really good! It was a grapefruit & rosemary drink with tequila and aperol. Next time I come, I'd like to catch the happy hour and try some more appetizers on the menu as well. read more

Had lunch, ordered some specials. Not many guests, mostly people sitting at the bar. Service was extremely slow unfortunately, when we finally got orders in and food, the steak had an odd "freezer burn" taste like it was old. Had to send it back. They did take it off the bill, but charged for the sides it came with. Lol! First time for everything. read more

I love the exterior of this pastel pink building, with equally cool interior decor. The food is a bit on the pricier side, given the quantity and quality, but it is yummy nonetheless. I got the Puntas Norteñas, which is indeed spicy (but not overly so). To be honest, it is not worth the $23 price tag by any means, but the flavors were good and the ingredients tasted fresh. Service was great, and the food came out quickly. Not sure if I'd come here for dinner again, but I definitely want to try their brunch at some point. read more

Come early if you don't like it loud! Only open Th-weekend (Sunday maybe), with HH 5-6 and 10-midnight in Thursdays. $4 margaritas, $6 classic cocktails, and not expensive cocktails in general. Make a reservation to be guaranteed a table, upstairs. We had the renowned goat cheese appetizer, with an appealing brown sugar gravy, with outstanding house-made bread. Matzo ball soup (super delish and dilly), and the basil pesto fettuccine. And we ordered lime chess pie to go! (They also had the traditional buttermilk version and quite a few other desserts.) read more

Seeking comfort food and going through my mental rolodex, I recalled an old favorite that I hadn't visited in a while so off to Liberty Bar I go. With all the downtown road construction I had to take a few detours so plan accordingly. For first time patrons, if you enter in through the front entrance there is a large staircase you will have to take to get to the upstairs' tables/bar but on the side of the building there is a ground level elevator that you can take to the second floor. It will open to the upstairs bar where you can enjoy a drink or head the hostess stand and check-in. After being seated, I review the menu and decide to start off with a Rye Old Fashion (and they ask you what Rye to use and show you what they have in stock), house made breadbasket, and the meatballs. For my main course, I order the Fettuccini Alfredo w/shrimp added. My drink and the appetizers came out quickly so let's go. My Old Fashion was well-made with the correct amount of bitters and simple syrup along with an orange rind, luxardo cherry and large rock. Perfect! The meatball appetizer consisted of four pork-based balls that were served in a light marinara sauce. There were cooked well but the marinara could have used more seasoning to give it kick. The breadbasket consisted of their house made sourdough that was slightly toasted/charred on the grill that came with rosemary butter. The butter was a nice touch and the bread was nicely toasted. Lastly, I decide to have dessert and go and old favorite, their buttermilk chess pie w/Mexican chocolate ice cream. I don't normally order buttermilk pie but I have tried theirs's before and it's a winner. It has a nice custurdy texture that is delicious and the Mexican chocolate ice cream just took it over the top. Well played LB! Overall, I don't know why it took so long for me to come back but I'll be back soon to catch up on some old favorites and new features, you should too! read more

Food is always quality. Excellent service. They have a very limited menu but always as described. Beautiful place.

This was my second time coming to liberty bar; the first time I went I ordered a drink and appetizer. The second time I came I ordered a Margherita Pizza and it did not disappoint. I was seated immediately in the bar area and greeted by multiple staff members. They give you a glass of ice and a carafe of water when seated. Tye menu looks pretty good and there's a plethora items to choose from. The wait time for the pizza wasn't that long and service was great. I can't wait to go back. Peace read more

This was a fairly large family group and the server did an excellent job. I like the setting and the history. Just an interesting restaurant. We started with two appetizers for the table, QUESO DE CABRA CON PILONCILLO and PEDRO'S FRIED CHICKPEAS. The Queso De Cabra was particularly good and I highly recommend. The Chickpeas were average compared to others I have had in the past. Across the table, there were several burgers and all liked them. My review will focus though on the two entrees that my wife and I ha. We had the Shrimp Tacos and the Puntas Nortenas. Both of them were excellent and flavorful. But they were also both what I would consider small portions for the prices, particularly the Puntas Nortenas. I am not someone who wants giant American size portions, but I do expect value for the money, and did not find that with these. Restaurant is worth a visit, but will not likely return. read more

Came in on a Sunday at about 130pm..medium/light crowd. In the midst of plenty of open tables , reception wanted to seat us right next a loud crowd of 6 people, (12 inches separated the tables) ..we were decisive in seating ourselves 1 more table over. Initial service was ok but once our food and drinks arrived we were forgotten by the waitress...Went to bar to order my own drinks twice... the proximity of our table chair to the bar chairs made for a narrow passageway to where the the chair kept getting bumped by anyone who went by...the tables along the "pew" seating , not good....the only one who deserved a tip that day was the bartender who was very attentive and treated each drink like a work of art.. read more

We came as a large group and were told there was no room at the Inn. A Caucasian member of our entourage arrived late and called us back - he had got us all in! After we we all told emphatically and repeatedly no. It became a running joke during the night, bar hopping while Mexican. I hope it was his advanced powers of persuasion not his lack of melanin. Great service, and cheap drinks overcame a really average pizza. read more

0 star if I could. The place was not busy, just 3 of us and 4 at the bar. We waited 18 min for the server, but no one came. I had to go to her to ask if she can take our order. It was about an hour before we got food. Steak tastes old like sitting in the fridge too long before cooking. We had to send it back. But charged us anyway for the mashed potato and spinach sides. I definitely will not go back. read more
