    Ramadan Iftar Meal (Lamb)
    Maria L.

    Ramadan Iftar meals came with pita and tomato cucumber salad. So refreshing and delicious

    Enough to fill you.
    Patricia M.

    While waiting near by. Thought we would pop in here for healthy food. Mediterranean food is by far the healthiest. We were surprised by the number of people in this establishment. Small, about every table was taken. This place was very busy. Upon arrival we were greeted by the cashier who explained how the menu worked. Cafeteria style, food is ready. Cashier was very hospitable. We both opted for chicken, rice, hummus & salad. Chicken oh so tender & seasoned perfectly, bread fresh & thin, (perfect for those watching the carbs), salad & rice. Healthy yet I managed to over consume. Definitely will return again.

    Mansaf

    Absolutely amazing experience. The food is incredibly authentic, fresh, and full of flavor -- easily some of the best Mediterranean cuisine in town. Every dish tastes homemade and high quality. The staff are warm, welcoming, and genuinely make you feel like family from the moment you walk in. The atmosphere is comfortable and inviting, and you can tell they truly care about their guests. Highly recommend to anyone looking for real, authentic Mediterranean food and a great overall dining experie

    Great customer service. Awesome authentic vibes. I love trying new dishes from different cultures and the staff here gets that and gives suggestions based on what your craving for protein. Did I mentioned they are fine as hell!!!! Good god. These men. Ty lord. Anyway. Try it out. I suggest the laziza drink!! So good!!

    Pita

    Service is amazing. Incredibly efficient once you walk in the door. That said, no communication from a Yelp order, so I walked in somewhat blind. But, my meal was ready, at the earliest point of on time. So no harm done. Hummus is really solid. Pita is Phoenicia brand. They literally gave it to me in the bag when I asked for extra. While it's fine, it's disappointing. Was hoping for house cooked. The stuffed grape leaves were great. The Kafta left SO much to be desired. The tahini Kafta felt like a really bad attempt at Swedish meatballs. JUST MAKE KAFTA. I want to love this place so much, but between the Kafta and the lack of fresh pita, it's hard.

    The food was delicious, the service and staff were amazing, and overall I enjoyed my experience. Seating is limited but still a great spot to grab food. Some items from their menu rotate daily, but they have a nice variety of food at their buffet station. I highly recommend for some comfort Mediterranean food!

    Popped in as a first timer looking for something different. Staff was very friendly and helpful guiding me towards my food options. It's was good and fresh. Definitely would return again.

    I am so impressed with this small but clean and beautiful restaurant. The host was wonderful and you can tell he is so passionate about his food! His smile, grace and wonderful customer service is rare today. But oh the food! Wow! We got a sampler for each of us. Like a small Smorgasbord. so worth it and I have to tell you the Moussaka and tomato kufta absolutely amazing! My personal favorite was the Tahini Kufta. So wonderful and the baklava was so good! I highly recommend you try this little spot. You will not regret this. I was too busy eating to take more pics.

    Bright cozy with comfortable seating.

    This is a new Mediterranean buffet. It has become my favorite for this type of cuisine in San Antonio! It's homestyle cooking which is what I love. Most other restaurants use way too much spice and vinegar for my taste. The ingredients are so fresh! The service is very quick and friendly. The owners made me feel so welcome. The restaurant has a bright minimalistic decor and clean. The chairs are very comfortable.

As a local, this is one of my go-to places for taking out-of-town guests. The brisket is my favorite, with the pulled pork coming in a close second. All the sides are great, but do not skip the mac and cheese. It's easily one of the creamiest mac and cheese sides I've ever had. Honestly, everything is good, so get a little bit of everything, add a sweet tea, and you will not be disappointed. The atmosphere makes the experience even better. Pinkerton's is inside a beautifully restored historic house, and the entire place has that relaxed, old-Texas charm. Great barbecue, great setting, and absolutely worth the visit.

We ordered take out and enjoyed awesome BBQ from Pinkerton at our hotel room. Why Pinkerton? We check reviews and asked locals, it was a great choice. We ordered ribs (dry rub + wet), sliced and chopped brisket, plus the fixing - the meat was truly outstanding - moist, tender, and the meat, not the rub or sauce was emphasized. The only downside to takeout? The beef ribs, which I called "Flintstone ribs" are only available on site...so it I will have to dine in the restaurant the next time I'm in San Antonio. And based on the line which was forming before it opened, it's a popular place for a reason. Texas BBQ + Shiner Boke, it's a combination which cannot be beat, check it out. I definitely will when I visit San Antonio again so I can try the beef ribs BBQ and re-assess my review.

The tall chairs we sat on indoors were also a bit uncomfortable with slight harsh lighting. But, overall- great great experience. Service: Impeccable. Everyones so helpful & attentive.

Great option for a casual date night or grabbing drinks and snacks with friends. Spent around $90 for 2 people. Overall: Loved the food and especially loved that the menu is healthy without sacrificing flavor. Add in the happy hour prices and it's an easy place to recommend. Would definitely come back!

Torchy's tacos has to be in my top five Taco places of all time. It is one of those places that just screams quality. It definitely has a cool vibe, and even better food and service. This particular torches had a very upscale field to it. Now. The last time I was at a torches was 2018. Since then they have obviously grown in popularity as more establishments had popped up.

The mac and cheese was bold. Very seasoned, definitely not bland. It leans more on the saucy side than thick and creamy, with a roux-style texture.

Bonus points for being Black- and woman-owned. Would I come back? Yes. Those tenders alone are enough to run it back.
