    Omelette

    These are the reasons why I enjoyed going to The Hut Diner for the first time and why I think I'll go back again: Food: the food was pretty good, and very affordable. I ordered the eggs with hashbrowns and avocado, which were a great and plenty. Service: the wait staff was extremely attentive, friendly, and likable. Our waitress went out of her way to make our visit outstanding. She was prompt and quick, and chatted with us, even answering our many questions, with patience and charm. Location: this is definitely a little hole in the wall, and it fits the whole diner aesthetic. It was easy to find and, luckily, for as small as it was, we found seating quickly. My complete impression of the place was that this is definitely a homey and welcoming place for breakfast or lunch. Will definitely return.

    Pork Chop Plate
    Sam I.

    Pork chop was seasoned decent, griddled well, still juicy near the bone. Edges were a little over, but it didn't kill the bite. Hash browns came out textbook crispy--thin, golden strands with that perfect salty edge. Eggs hit that diner-style comfort, slightly runny yolks, nothing fancy, just solid. Wheat toast was whatever, not too dry, just did the job. Other plate had scrambled eggs, same story--fluffy, not overdone, no weird texture. Turkey ham tasted better than expected, salty and thin-sliced, kind of reminded me of school breakfast in a good way. Hash browns held up just as well, same golden crust. Service was fast. No waiting around or needing to flag anyone down. Staff felt familiar, like they've been doing this a while. Inside looks like every old-school diner you've been to--tight booths, that low hum of conversation, syrup caddies on every table. Good for mornings when you just want the basics done right.

    Good food, decent service. Been coming here for years for breakfast the lunch is just as solid. Large portions, very tasty. Crust on the chicken was cooked perfectly, the breading did not fall off of the chicken. Burger was a god choice.

    Waffle, omelette

    What an amazing place to eat! The music was great. It was very clean and they cooked to order right in front of you which is unique and tantalizing as you wait for your food. The servers were very attentive great customer service and quick. We got a coffee, a sweet tea, one waffle the pork omelette ( which they not stingy with the meat at all) and the English muffin sandwich. Both the plates came with hashbrowns and the omelette came with toast. Including the tip, it came to about $40. Definitely got more than what we paid for and will be going back very soon!

    Went the other morning for breakfast and had one of their specials wasn't disappointed it's a small place a hidden restaurant but I've never been disappointed. The staff is awesome very clean and organized. I hope whoever reads my review will stop in and try it sometime.

    Tasty little spot on Fredericksburg rd. Almost like having a home cooked breakfast. two little ladies cooking on the flat top and the stove. Friendly and attentive wait staff. The place is small but there's counter seating and about 5 booths inside. There's also seating outside. The parking is small also but it was fine when we went. I ordered the pork chop bfast with scrambled eggs. Could not sub the hash browns and toast for pancakes so I ordered a pancake side. Got my son the pancake and bacon off the kids menu. His pancake came as a Mickey mouse with fruits and whip cream as a face. His mom Also for a pork chop bfast with over easy eggs. We both agreed the pork chop was cooked perfectly but could use more seasoning. The side of pancakes is one pancake. Kind of dispapointing. But the pancake itself was very good. Since I didn't eat the toast and hash I also ordered a ham and egg taco. Very good. Plenty of ham and egg mixed in. Good meal for the price. This is a nice little diner that serves a good meal. Worth a stop.

    The food was really good. Ambiance was exactly what I expected. Old school 50s diner setting with a jukebox. Our waitress was attentive..service was fine.

    Sorry, I forgot to snap a photo prior to my first bite!

    This is a small classic diner in the 21st century where you find good food, hard working people, and it's affordable. The service was excellent, pancakes are tasty, and my barbacoa was lean, not fatty. You might have to wait, but it's definitely worth it because it is a small family operated restaurant.

    Kid's Pancake Plate
    Michael C.

    We have driven by this place countless times and it's definitely a blink and you'll miss location. The staff were friendly and welcoming. Definitely has that diner feel when you walk inside while the patio is secluded enough to enjoy a nice brunch. Food was absolutely fantastic. Definitely worth checking out for breakfast alone.

    My kids and I recently visited The Hut Diner for the 1st time this past weekend. We LOVED it! It's location is close to us so now we'll have a new favorite breakfast/brunch spot right down the road from us. We loved the variety of menu items and the prices are budget friendly. We enjoyed the "Waffle Plate", the servings were huge and the waffles were delicious! We'll be going back this weekend to try some other deliciousness.

    FIRST TIME VISIT!…read more Woohoo! Been looking for chili cheese fries and happened upon a review for this place boasting fries with a homemade chili so we HAD TO stop in tonight. THE LOCATION: on the very end of a string of businesses in a strip mall that I've never been in before, so that was cool. Lots of parking, that'll never be an issue. And right off the 410. THE MENU: Burgers, dogs, Mexi-style munchies and a variety of frozen dessert-type items like shakes, frozen fruit concoctions and Italian ice. THE STAFF: I wasn't overwhelmed with a warm welcome and smiles, at least from the guys. Lol! They should really work on that. There was a sweet gal who ran out our food orders and she was great. THE FOOD: I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich deluxe with tots and a sweet tea. The grilled chicken was juicy and cooked well and the bun was lovely, slightly sweet and toasted. Overall, the sandwich could've used more flavor, like a creamy bbq spread and cheddar instead of the "Swiss" cheese that tasted more like American cheese. But overall, 7/10. The tots were extra crispy and the guy who took my order didn't take heed to my request for ranch. I was too lazy to get up again so I settled for ketchup. The sweet tea was nicely sweet and fresh, I'll be sipping this in my dreams. The hubby ordered the bacon cheeseburger with chili cheese fries and an Oreo cookie shake. The burger looked good and he ate it quick, so there's that. This guy can EAT so it surprised us both when he slowed down fast after eating that burger. Lol! He kept saying how filling it was, but then he also killed a large shake before the food arrived, so there's that. He ate most of his chili cheese fries, leaving me a few bites to sample. Not bad. I order a Coco Haven frozen dessert to go and omg is this thing delightful! Vanilla ice cream and coconut Italian ice (?) with a blue snow cone-like syrup drizzled throughout. I loved the texture of what I believed to be Italian ice. Smooth and flaky, a perfect icy dessert. OVERALL: decent eatery, the hubby said we can go back (LOL!) Shockerrrrr! But I recommend the staff tries harder to make customers feel welcomed and comfortable. The next visit will be telling.

    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 tasted great and it made me excited to come back and try the other options they have! The curly fries were also seasoned well and very crisp. They might've been a bit understaffed because there was no one at the register when I walked in so I had a wait a minute or two before receiving service. But when she took my order and gave us our food she was super nice. The food also didn't take long to come out either. I very much enjoyed the outdoor area I sat at with my 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.

He even showed us around and introduced us to his family and staff, which made us feel right at home. The food came out quickly, and the burger was fantastic--but the true STAR OF THE SHOW was the bread. Think Hawaiian rolls, but softer, fluffier, and sized for a burger. These burgers were no joke: meat, cheese, grilled onions, and a secret sauce--and honestly, they didn't need anything else. The grilled onions and sauce were the perfect compliment, and you could taste every flavor in each bite. The drinks came in cans. I didn't notice a fountain setup, so that might be why. It would've been nice to have a cup with ice, but I didn't ask, so maybe that's an option. Overall, this place is definitely worth a try--and we will be back!
