    Outdoor patio dining
    Mazi G.

    It's all made from scratch, and that's why this place totally deserves 5 stars. It's a one-person show here, so be patient when you order. It's totally worth the wait, the taste, and the portion size. You can really tell the difference between homemade and the processed stuff at chain restaurants. The prices are a little high, but the taste makes it worth it.

    2 meat Plate: Kuloa Pork and Garlic Shrimp with white rice & Mac
    Bailey H.

    5 Stars - A Taste of the Islands Right Here in Texas! Service? A+ across the board. From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel like ohana -- incredibly welcoming, knowledgeable, and more than happy to walk me through the menu. If you're new to Hawaiian cuisine, this is exactly the kind of place that'll guide you without overwhelming you. I kicked things off with the teriyaki musubi, and let me tell you -- one bite and I was instantly transported back to the islands. The rice was perfectly cooked, the shrimp was expertly seasoned, and the pork paired with the sweet chili sauce was the ideal balance of savory and sweet. Absolute harmony on a plate. But the real standout? The mac salad. Creamy, cool, and impossibly comforting -- it's the kind of side that steals the show. My only regret? Not discovering this spot sooner... and not trying the ube milkshake (yet). Plenty of outdoor seating if you want to soak up the sun, or cool indoor tables with crisp A/C if the Texas heat gets too real. Authentic flavors, genuine hospitality -- highly recommend.

    The building had good vibes. Parking was a bit hard because there were cars blocking the one of the ramps to enter the parking lot so I had to go in a circle to get to the other side to enter the parking lot. The service was nice and kind. I just had to wait for my ube shake for a long while. I wish they would've told me the shake would've been so long of a wait because I would've just got a fountain drink with my meal. So heads up, if you were thinking to get a shake to drink while eating your meal, maybe you should get a fountain drink too while you wait for the shake. The shake was really good though! I also got the two meat plate with pork & chicken. I thought it was pretty good.

    At first it was a bit difficult to get parking, but once we did, it was a breeze to find! There is an outdoor seating area and an inside seating area with about 9 tables. The lady who took our order was helpful and sweet. The food was incredibly delicious (so good that I forgot to take a picture right when we got it). We got a plate with shrimp, teriyaki chicken, double mac salad and white rice. The shrimp tasted fresh and the seasoning was great. The teriyaki chicken was also really delicious especially when we mixed the sauce with siracha! Overall, this was one of my favorite places i've been to and I'll be sure to make my way back!

    So very 1st time here and I've passed this place up several times in the past. So I had to for lunch in the outdoors & the Sun Helpful Friendly staff members & lively spot on the corner. I had the Big Daddy Special & waited outside for my grub to come. There was some customers already eating outside & enjoying their food. So I decided to join in As I was ordering up, a SAPD Officer came in to pickup some food & I took care of his TOGO bill for him ‍ Gotta support Our Blue This Big Daddy Sandwich was Delicious with Pulled Pork & Toppings on Fresh Bread Yummy The French Fries we're just Okay Some of them weren't cooked thoroughly through But the Sandwich & Service plus Atmosphere made up for this mishap. The next time that I come, I'll ask to have Fries Crispy or maybe have another side dish One Suggestion that I have is to play some Hawaiian Reggae Music while dining outside

    First time here and let me tell you this place was fire we wish we had room for their dessert but this won't be the only time I'll be back. So freaking good guys!!! And the customer service was phenomenal! Cool vibes too

    What a surprise find! We found this on Yelp so we have to get the word out! kinda off the beaten path but adequate free parking, a few tables inside and 8-9 tables outside. it's an older building but they've done a nice job making it cute. The server was very friendly and helpful with the menu. It's an order at the counter establishment. Our order arrived timely for freshly prepared food and was pleasantly presented. Now to the food!!! Brah! this was the best Hawaiian food i've had since living the islands! the Kalua Pig is smoky and tender , the teriyaki chicken is tangy and the perfect level of texture. the Hawaiian fried chicken is amazing! all the requirements! three meats two scoops of white rice and mac salad! perfect :) Mahalo

    Maui's on Main was recommend to me. We went for lunch and ordered one meat plates. I had the teriyaki chicken & hubby had the kalua pork. Both plates had very large portions. We ate about half before we took the plates home. The meats were very tender and we enjoyed both of them. The rice and macaroni sides were very plain. He put the teriyaki sauce over the rice to give it some flavor. We were the only ones there so we chose a table and waited about 10 mins for our food. The place is very clean and looks right out to the neighboring businesses. The total for our order was $43 including 2 Hawaiian flavored juice cans. As we finished the meats, we discovered a bed of rice under both meats. I think if they served a plate with smaller portions and much less rice they could have a lower priced plate. OR next time order one plate for two people to eat. Overall tasty meats is my impression.

    The food and service here was amazing! They have a food truck and a restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. The ladies working there were super nice and helpful. The food was delicious and very generous portions. This is the best Hawaiian food I have had in San Antonio! I definitely recommend the fried chicken and macaroni salad.

    This was me completely demolishing my plate that stuff was so good! Go try it for yourself!

    My boyfriend and I decided to check this place out since we both saw it on TikTok and it did not disappoint. The service was awesome and the owner even came out to welcome and thank us for checking them out. Very cute spot has indoor and outdoor seating. I'd recommend 10/10 checking out.

    Excellent new Hawaiian restaurant near downtown San Antonio. The Tiki style restaurant features a Hawaiian themed patio, luau music, and a small indoor seating area. The restaurant and staff is very welcoming. Their menu offers great cornerstone Hawaii bites for a fair price! I was happy to try this restaurant while visiting home from LA. My grandma and girlfriend accompanied me and came by around Friday at 8PM. There was plenty seating and a short wait time for our entrees to come out. The amount of food for the price is generous and the quality of plate was amazing. Their shrimp and chicken were very good. And the Mac salad was fair. The sauce brought the plate together and was a hit for my Hawaiian craving. The Food was a solid 4.5/5 and the Ube shake was good but could have had stronger Ube flavor. Their ambiance, serving sizes, and service was the real winner and made me happy to try this spot. I'd definitely consider coming back on more trips to SA

    We read the reviews and we had mixed thought but we had very high hopes! We saw they got very busy and that they had a way to order ahead so, we did just that! We ordered our food and pick a time of 11AM for a Saturday. We arrived around 10:55am that Saturday and sat in the eating area, we were greeted by the young lady working behind the counter and also by the owner who came an talked to us and gave us both a fist bump! 11AM on the dot our food came in we grabbed our drinks and a mochi cake (extra)! We decided to sit outside as it was a beautiful morning. So we began to dig in! Right away my wife noticed the order was wrong with our 3 meat plate... they gave us teriyaki chicken ILO teriyaki beef but she was hungry and didn't want to wait for new food. The chicken was pretty dry and she did not enjoy it, The shrimp were delicious no complaints there and the Kalua Pork was just missing flavor but sriracha always helps! The mac salad was very tasty and the fried rice yummy! The 2nd thing we got was a burger and with all the toppings it was really tasty but the burger it self plain. Highlight of the burger was the bun, soft, sweet and just perfect. The fries were cooked well and had a good seasoning! That seasoning should have been used on the burger!! We also order a Loko Moco! One of my favorite Hawaiian dishes! It was cooked well, eggs runny and lots of gravy but again no flavor.... The mochi cake was pretty good, slightly sweet and chewy like it should be. All in all it was a good experience but the food was lacking flavor as others have also said... Maui's is about 35 minutes from home so, I don't see us travelling all the way back for Hawaiian food.

    Yummm brings me back to my days in Oahu and Maui. This is authentic, delicious Hawaiian food from their rice plates to their poke! Their poke is just like how they prepare it in Hawaii. Their portions are good. The only improvement I would like to see are more indoor space, (a bit tight in there) and perhaps more staff since service was slower due to short staff.

They serve a variety of burgers, sandwiches, wings, dogs, desserts, and meals include either a side of tots, fries, cucumbers with chamoy and lucas, or corn in a cup. Other sides are available as well. This trip since we craved for burgers, ordered: Bistro burger- wonderfully seasoned and cooked, served on sourdough, with avocado, grilled onions and mushrooms, mayo. One thing that should be added, the works, I felt it would be even better with the addition of lettuce, pickles, and tomatoes. I ordered the cucumbers sans chamoy and lucas. I appreciate simple veggies. Mexican burger- excellent! Juicy burger with cheese, jalapenos, pico de gallo, bacon and the works. The tater tots had a nice and crispy outer texture as it should. Overall- very good. Tasty, reasonable, clean, and great service. We'll have to make sure to come back sooner!

    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.)

It's been a few years since I've been by; so, I was truly looking forward to getting something. I chose The Brat & tots (plain). I was very happy with my choice. The gentleman greeted me immediately. I thought it would take me a minute, but, as I stated, I chose The Brat immediately. I'm a little high strung from my age, so people kinda chuckle. It's cute. I make me smile. They put the perfect amount of mustard on it too! See the photos, but it comes covered with cabbage & crispy fried onions. It is amazing. I was able to get a whole 1/3 of it eaten before my body shut down. Tot wise, they were hot & perfectly fried! I like to dip mine in ketchup, but they offer you various other dips as well. So, I got ranch cuz, um, of course. Also, I really like their soda brand. I can't remember it, but it's a dia de los muertos skull for the logo, but I love their roots beer, which was my beverage of choice today. It's really a nice little place to just come in & sit & enjoy a yummy hotdog alone, or with family/friends.

My partner and I went on a Sunday morning just after 11am and there were already people coming in to eat. It's popular for a reason! I've eaten here a few times and had a very consistently good time, but this review will be about my most recent visit. We visited on a rainy day, but luckily we were able to snag one of the inside tables, we ordered at the counter and our orders arrived very quickly. I got the Ratchet dog which is a beef dog with queso, hot Cheetos and fried jalapeños. Dogfather uses quality dogs and buns for all of their gourmet dogs. I found the Ratchet to be meaty, salty with just right amount of spice from the jalapeños. My partner got the Pop it like it's hot, but removed the jalapeños. This was good but lacking a bit of flavor, however she and I both agreed that was on her for taking the jalapeños off the dog. Both dogs were extremely tasty, and we devoured both. I also got an order of curly fries loaded with their chili and cheese. For me, these did not have to go as HARD as they did. The chili they are using at Dogfather is seriously good, with a slight tang and a good amount of spice. It thrills but does not take away from your meal with too much heat. Very tasty. My only feedback is that Dogfather needs a larger space! There's a good size outside seating area, but for times like today when it's raining people need some coverage. They're doing it right and the crowds want to come! As I have stated this is a local favorite. If you live nearby, make it a regular spot. If you live in San Antonio, do yourself a favor and make a trip over at least sometimes. If you like hot dogs you won't go wrong.
