    I stopped by Q Kitchen on my second night in town. It was pretty late at night, but the bar was still boisterous. I was helped right away and ordered a canned mocktail plus the brisket quesadilla. As I was waiting for the quesadilla, I realized I was starting to doze off (it had been a LONG day of work), so I asked if my order could be revised to takeout instead. I felt bad switching it up, but they were cool about it. I brought it upstairs not long after and thoroughly enjoyed every bite. It was super well-made and a step above what you might expect from a hotel lobby restaurant.

    No buffet today but just as well since we like the breakfast menu. Hubby loves their Mexican items, and the Lemon Blueberry Pancakes are divine. Again, Anthony waited on us and he is great. You can tell from the pictures that the view of the Riverwalk is a perfect way to start the day.

    The food here was amazing! This was my first time eating here and I would honesty come back. The steak and eggs were made perfectly. The beans were good as well. The service was great. The ambiance was beautiful and peaceful. Thank you staff for an amazing experience.

    Since we were staying at the hotel we decided to have dinner here. We got here for dinner close to 10pm and they were on the late night menu. We got the Q burger and Pappardelle with Chicken. Both items we got were a disappointment. The burger was dry and didn't have much flavor. Pappardelle didn't have much sauce on it, and what was there was bland.

    If you are looking for an indoor breakfast spot and still want to get a little view of the riverwalk check out Q Kitchen. They also have plenty of TVs that are usually playing sports. I also heard some live acoustic music in the evenings. This morning I tried out the San Antonio Breakfast Skillet with a side of bacon and blueberry-pork sausage. It was more than plenty for one person that I needed a to-go box. The chorizo is flavorful and pairs well with the ranchero salsa. Definitely try the blueberry-pork sausage! It is delicious! I was a little hesitant because the word blueberry was throwing me off, but it was perfect. There is a little hint of maple syrup too and not too strong of a blueberry flavor. I also learned that if you want a coffee from the MKT. Place in the hotel you totally can add it to your order. I went with a lavender oat milk latte and it was divine. They provide friendly and prompt service with a smile!

    There was 4 others besides myself. I sat at the bar. I ordered a glass of pino grio and a crème brûlée. The bar tender disappeared, the pino wasn't good (sent it back when she returned). So I asked for my dessert to go b/c I'm tired. She immediately tells me no and "here is what you can take out" shoving another menu at me. I simply stated, " May I have a carry out container and I'll put it in that." Carolina was sooooo rude yall. Like if you don't like working with the public, choose another line of work. That's the post. If you stop in, let me know how it went.

    Located inside the Hyatt Regency River Walk Hotel, some co-workers and I stopped by after a long day of meetings. I ordered a bourbon to get started with a cocktail. For dinner, the kickin wings and Q Burger. The wings were well cooked in a house made buffalo sauce with a touch of spice. The burger was average size but pilled high with all the trimmings. Both very tasty. The staff was great and provided everything we needed. Slightly dimmed lighting, moderate crowd noise and a nice size bar. Prices a little higher than average but the food was good and service better.

    We stayed at the Hyatt for St Patrick's weekend and had our breakfast at Q kitchen since it was very convenient location . The first day we tried the buffet , it was kind of a disappointment, a lot of empty items and it took time to fill it up. I had to ask 2 different people just to get a coffee. I wish they had the coffee out so we can just do self service . The food was okay , my hubby mentioned the omelette was really good . The 2nd day we opted for Ala carte and the menu was very limited . We had a nice view of the green river walk so that was kind of nice , our server did not really check on us or ask if we need anything.

    Very convenient spot to grab a bite to eat when staying at the Hyatt Regency. Breakfast this morning was a nice and chill environment to enjoy my coffee and garden omelette. It was very good and I would definitely get that again. My wife decided to sleep in so I got the avocado toast for her to go. She was perfectly satisfied with it and would recommend.

    Great late night find. Large portions, great service, delicious food. Glad everything else was closed. Will definitely go back when in area.

    Had such an over the top breakfast here ! Highly recommend visiting their breakfast menu ! The egg white oven roasted breakfast with pesto !!! What a delightful combination of food with unique flavor. We had to then order the Huevos rancheros, ORDER NOW ! Made with brisket this one of a kind combo is a party in your belly ! The ambiance is nice and comfortable. This restaurant definitely has a one of a kind view from the inside top floor so You can see the river walk ! The service is one of a kind. We had such a wonderful time because of Anthony and Ashlee ! They make you feel like family and we had a delightful conversation and time because of them. Thank you Hyatt !

    Oh Q Kitchen Bar thanks for simply being the best! I stayed at the Hyatt for 19 days and frequently stopped by the Q Bar because the food was tasty, the drinks delicious, and the service fantastic. On Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays live music was played during the evenings which was very pleasant. They had a menu change while I was there so I'm not sure if everything I ate is still available. I particularly loved the brisket flatbread but the shrimp avocado tacos was where it was at. They were large, flavorful, and quite filling! I found when I wanted a light meal they were absolutely perfect. The avocado caprese salad was good but would have liked more cheese and less avocado. Once the cheese was gone I didn't think the avocado could carry the tomato like the cheese could. But with any restaurant it was the people working there that made me come back time and time again. Leeza and DJ were super pleasant to talk with - easy going, good listeners, and very responsive. There was another bartender whose name I didn't catch who was also very responsive and noticed when I needed something. Then there was Ryan who became part of my vacation experience because his knowledge of cocktails and alcohol was astounding. When the evenings were slow he would experiment with ingredients and come up with an array of flavors that were just marvelous. I am quite astounded that a craft cocktail bar hasn't swooped in to steal Ryan away but I am sure the Hyatt realizes how amazing of a bartender there is. But my shoutout has to go to Isaac. Isaac warmly greeted me when I first came and made me feel like a regular from day one. Not only that - one night when a particular man wouldn't leave me alone despite me telling him I had no interest in what he wanted Isaac stepped in and deftly helped out. I have been in this situation a few times in my life but this is the first that I had someone in the other side of the bar step in and intercede. I don't think if Isaac hadn't that the drunk guy would have left me alone. For that I am especially grateful.

    Chowder soup
    Tara R.

    My husband and I stayed at the Hyatt Regency last week. We stopped in one evening to grab a drink and some food. I had a cup of the chowder soup which was delicious. My husband had the Q burger with truffle fries. He really enjoyed the burger. I can also say that the fries were delicious since I snagged some off of his plate. The bartender was super cool and attentive even though the bar was packed at the time of our visit.

From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between laid-back Texas charm and a lively River Walk experience. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from start to finish. I ordered the three-meat plate with the sausage, second-cut brisket, and smoked turkey, and every bite was outstanding. The brisket was tender and packed with smoky flavor, the sausage had the perfect snap and seasoning, and the smoked turkey was surprisingly juicy and flavorful. The baked beans and mac & cheese were fantastic sides that complemented the barbecue perfectly. To top it all off, I had one of the best mango margaritas I've ever tasted--refreshing, smooth, and the perfect pairing for the meal. And don't even think about skipping the complimentary bread with honey butter. It's warm, fresh, and absolutely to die for. Between the incredible food, excellent service, and unbeatable River Walk atmosphere, The County Line was one of the highlights of our trip to San Antonio. I wouldn't hesitate to eat here again and will absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting the city. Five stars all the way!

Y'know it's impossible to find street parking especially on the weekends normally. I had made reservations to meet some friends here for brunch/lunch 1145 am on a Sunday. This place is bigger than it looks! There's seating at the main building, plus a huge outdoor patio seating area, and an entire other building beautifully decorated. The hostess was welcoming and friendly and our server was excellent. We were seated in the other building near the windows. The menu wasn't huge, but just right with a few lunch and brunch items. After debating for a while of what to order, I decided on the Texas Gulf Shrimp plate. Agua Fresca of the day per our server was strawberry pineapple. Our server was able to water mine down slightly- since it was very sweet, but love knowing that it was freshly made. Complimentary chips and salsa always a plus, and we were able to order some spicy salsa to accompany at no charge. My shrimp plate was delicious! 2 skewers of nicely cooked and seasoned shrimp atop salsa with perfectly cooked cilantro rice and a fresh leaf salad. A half slices avocado accompanied my plate. Oh how I love avocados. I thoroughly enjoyed my plate. The chicken al carbon was also a good choice - half a chicken that was juicy, not dry. The avocado toast was beautiful and the pecan salsa was quite interesting. The female performers during our brunch in the room, made it very hard for all of us to have conversations. The volume echoed loudly in the room, so it was very hard to speak and understand each other. Although a great idea, maybe outdoor patio area might be more suitable. Beautiful space, great service, good food.

    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.)
