    KALE SLAW (Large)
    Maria E.

    Omg this place is a hidden gem. Love the food. It's absolutely amazing. Everything was so delicious and fresh. The restaurant is so cute inside. I love the look of all of the plants and decor! Everyone who worked there is so unbelievably nice! We will definitely be back!

    Wow, this place was amazing. First off, the staff were so friendly and welcoming. They had good suggestions and helped navigate the menu for a first-timer. We got the roasted chicken and it was the perfect balance of toasty on the outside and moist on the inside. It came with rice and a selection of sauces (ginger cilantro and sriracha ). This was so delicious. We also got the fries and they were tasty, crispy and unique. Not your typical fry. Looked like a mini sculpture, almost too pretty to eat. There is ample seating and they have a cool little bookshelf with books and board games. Love the concept! They also have a wine dispenser. Didn't try it this time, but up for the challenge next time. Also don't skip the pickles, they are magical in every way. Homemade with lots of love and flavor! Then they brought a sample of the donuts and I think I'm hooked! They were fresh, delicious and still warm. I ended up ordering a large order to go! Highly recommend!

    Fast service, yummy food, kinda spicy but not too much. The donuts are amazing. They don't make them until you order them. Nice people. Laid-back atmosphere. The lunch special is $12.50.

    I stopped by this new place on Broadway in Alamo Heights because I read great things about it. There's very little parking in front of the restaurant and just a little parking space in the back. It shares parking with a few other businesses so parking was difficult to find. The place is small but with a welcoming vibe. I ordered the wings and coleslaw. Service was friendly and fast which I liked. The wings were ok but I loved the flavor of the coleslaw. This place has a healthy selection of beers and wines in addition to a wine club. Apparently they are having comedy events as well which I will likely return to check out.

    Yummy chicken counter service restaurant with both fried and roasted chicken options. We tried the family chicken tender meal which comes with rice, your choice of two sides, and pickles. The sides we chose were the fries and the kale slaw at the cashier/cook's recommendation. The sauces they have are also very unique - one spicy, one citrus, and one tamarind. The chicken itself is seasoned really well and we were surprised at how unique and tasty everything was. Great spot to try something new outside of your usual chicken tenders. Inside is nicely decorated with plenty of seating.

    We love Thai Bird! We've been to both locations, but the Alamo Heights location is our favorite. The owner is wonderful and very friendly to answer any questions you may have about the menu. My SIL is gluten and dairy free - and I love how this place has something for everyone! I usually order the tofu (which is AWESOME since it's so hard to find vegetarian options in many restaurants) and the tofu is SO good and crispy. I prefer to get the salad and sub the chicken for tofu, it's so good! The sides are great as well - the seasoning in the fries makes them addictive. I'd also recommend joining the wine club! The once a month "pick up parties" have a fun, casual vibe and they bring in a sommelier to try different wines from around the world. I appreciate how they are usually natural wines with such a depth of flavor profiles and are so unique! Big fan of Thai Bird and love how it's become a staple in our rotation of restaurants.

    2 Piece Chicken Tender and Cinnamon Sugar Donuts

    Great food and amazing service! They have a small-ish menu, but it is pretty diverse. I ordered a two-piece chicken tender and donuts and they were great! I was given sauces with the chicken, but was unsure if I'd like them. I ended up getting a side of their ginger mayo as well, but they were all delicious! As others have said, the food isn't anything *too* special, but gives people with celiac disease and gluten allergies/intolerances so much more peace of mind knowing that everything about the restaurant is catered towards their gluten-free needs. I enjoyed the cinnamon sugar donuts a lot (they'd go even better with some sort of Bavarian cream), but a couple non-gluten free folks tried them and didn't like them. Overall, I had a great experience here and will definitely try to visit when I'm in Texas. The employees were very attentive and even assured me before ordering that everything is 100% gluten free. I am definitely one of those people who asked if everything is gluten-free at a dedicated gluten-free restaurant, so it was nice that I was beaten to the punch.

    Oh boy, where do I start? Usually when we prep for a trip I research and call ahead asking about food allergies. When I spoke to Chef over the phone I felt at ease about coming here. Both the Fried and Roasted chicken was free from ALL of my little ones food allergies. So good we came here twice. After the first bite of the tender, gluten free or not, this is top tier fried chicken. The Roasted Chicken was just as good, if not better. It's difficult to make chicken breast juicy so you can tell this place has some experience and technique. For sides, we ordered the pickles, corn, fruit salad and kale salad. I'll try the fries next time. The pickles had a strong but manageable and tasty vinegar burn to it. Corn I thought could use some salt but adding yourself never hurt anyone. Fruit salad was refreshing. Kale salad was my favorite, dressed well, not drenched, crunchy and refreshing. All of their dipping sauces are top tier also. I couldn't decide a favorite between the Tamarind, ginger and the sweet/sour type sauce. Owners are dope. Staff is knowledgable and vibes are definitely there. 11/10, would come back.

    Very nice ambiance and service. Very good tasty chicken but doesn't rise to the level of a great pollo asado place or an excellent tandoori chicken restaurant. Good but nothing to make me return.

    This place is AWESOME!! I went to the Broadway location and am so happy I stopped in. The owner is super cool & friendly and the space is really nice & clean. He recommended the Roasted Chicken and it was the best!! Such a good flavor. I also tried the cinnamon sugar donuts. Loved all of it! Also, everything is gluten free! I'll be back soon!

    The bottle-and-board special keeps bringing us back. -- Postino Broadway in San Antonio has easily…read morebecome one of those dependable neighborhood spots for lingering over wine, sharing a generous board and stretching the evening just a little longer. We eventually joined the monthly bottle membership, which probably says everything about how often this place works for us. The bruschetta boards are generously portioned with enough variety to lean savory, sweet or somewhere deliciously in between, and they pair perfectly with an easy bottle of wine. It's casual enough for a spontaneous stop but still feels polished enough to make an ordinary evening feel like a treat. One of the highlights is when they open the large bar windows and the whole space shifts into that indoor-outdoor mode. You can sit inside, outside or right along the open-air edge and enjoy the best of both. We've even come here after a full dinner somewhere else just to linger, lounge and finish the night with another pour. Postino has easily become a San Antonio spot for relaxed sips, shareable bites and easy neighborhood vibes.

The bruschetta flight was wheat bread (yuckyyy) and the toppings were skimped on. Flavor was not there for the food. I forced myself to eat it all too because I refuse to waste food in this economy but my bf didn't like any so I was accepting the challenge Wine was a basic glass and the atmosphere is kinda odd aesthetic. Not sure what their vibes or theme is. Kinda just plain. One bartender and she was kinda spacey and ppl were flagging her down for service. There was a man next to us at the bar and he was clearly a regular. He knew bartenders name and she knew his and the conversation was more professional / business customer service than friend. He said his meatballs didn't taste normal or good and I heard the bartender tell him either the chef quit or is on vacation and someone else was back there. He sent it back but was trying to tell her he didn't want another one but she got a manager and came out they said they were sorry and making him another one. Not sure if I went on a one off but I doubt I'll be back if in the area.

The vibe is super cozy in that "let's sit here for hours" kind of way. My friend and I grabbed a corner couch and somehow lost track of time (in the best way.) The staff? Amazing. I'm not exactly a wine expert, and they were so patient and helpful walking me through the list and finding something i enjoyed. You can tell they genuinely care about making sure you enjoy what you're drinking. Also low key one of my favorite parts were the other patrons. Everyone there was just...nice. It had that welcoming, neighborhood feel where you don't feel out of place, even on your first visit. I noticed they do things like tasting Tuesdays, plus events and pop-ups throughout the week, which makes me even more excited to go back. I live less than 5 minutes away and had NO idea this place existed - so consider this your sign to go if you're also nearby.

There was only one other guest in the building at the time that we arrived and we were able to find a seat quite easily. They appear to have an outdoor area as well, but it's summer and we aren't crazy, so we sat indoors. We were given great recommendations for wine by the glass and enjoyed the perfect afternoon. Next time, I'll probably bring a book and just sit and enjoy a glass while reading. This is the perfect spot for wine by yourself or with a group. Definitely check them out if you are in the San Antonio area.

    Ladino is probably one of my favorite restaurants in the city by far!…read more I've had the privilege to visit Ladino maybe four or five times, and every time I come back, they keep getting better. They recently received a Bib Gourmand from Michelin for good quality and value. Frankly I think they deserve a star, but that's just me. Ladino is located at The Pearl and making a reservation through Open Table is a must! They book up days in advance, so I encourage you to reserve a table ahead of time. They specialize in small tapas style plates, so if you are coming with a group you can order a couple of items to share. They also have a few excellent main dishes, but my favorite is the steak. From the smaller plates I think I've tried almost everything and there hasn't been one I didn't love. However the hummus is a must and the feta cheese is always a winner when I bring new people to Ladino. The staff here is outstanding! The level of service they offer is unbelievable. They truly make sure you have an outstanding experience during your visit, and that level of service is hard to find. Whether you are looking to try a new place or celebrate an anniversary, do yourself a favor and make a reservation at Ladino.

From beautiful decor with Mediterranean vibes to the warm of the staff and the quality of the good, our experience was incredible ! We all did the "Table of Joy" option of the menu, which basically is a 3-4 course meal with dessert, all chosen by the chef. You can express if you want something specific from the menu and they will make sure to bring it to you. On Sunday they have a wonderful wine special, all wine bottles are 50% off Everything we got served was outstanding, but my personal favorite were the fire roasted corn, the grilled cabbage and the lamb ribs. Outstanding service by our server, she knew the menu very well and guided us through it like a pro. Definitely a place to return! Check the food we got and get ready to drool over your screen!

The service was amazing .. though as they got busy about 6.30pm, service fell off a little. I do recommend a reservation for any time after 6pm. We started with small plates. The French Onion soup had a hearty flavor though it was more bread than broth. The Pear gorgonzola salad was amazing ... pears soaked in red wine paired with room temp gorgonzola, green and a light vinaigrette. The escargot brought yums. I had the braised short ribs. Super tender .. fall apart. I would have liked a little more veggies and a heartier sauce. The streak and fries was cooked and seasoned perfectly. For dessert, the creme brulee was glass on top and pure custard underneath ... perfect consistency. The mousse was a deep chocolate flavor with a tasty almond cookie. So many items I want to go back and try. Definitely recommend!!!
