“As San Antonians we love Mexican food, but sometimes, isn’t there an itch to try something just a bit different, but not too different? Well, friends I have a recommendation for those moments! Bilia Eatery is restaurant offering fusion Latin fare, heavy on the Cuban, but also with South American variety as well.” – Rick R. Credit: Instagram / @biliaeatery

22. Danny Boy’s Hamburgers 1537 W. Summit Ave., (210) 736-1665, facebook.com/Danny-Boys-Hamburgers-273701852680767 “The wait, the long wait, is over!!! Danny Boy’s is back! The guy is a class act and I hope every burger lover in town makes their way here. About as chill and low key as a you can get for an establishment. You can have good conversation with the man himself. There’s literally 2 people that work here. Dan and the sweet old lady who has been holding the fort down for as long as I’ve gone. Sure there are no French fries; the burger makes up for it. They give you a bag of chips, have Mexican coke to wash your food down: there’s 2 TVs which Dan will usually be airing whichever sporting event is going on. Dan puts a lot of care in his craft and the fact he does this as a side gig, is hella impressive! Come give this place a try! One of the best burgers you’ll have in town!” – Yunnán C.

“I’m always a little wary of River Walk restaurants because I feel like they can be so hit or miss. In my experience the tourist spots are the worst for food quality. This place isn’t that. It is very nice and classy, and we loved their restaurant week menu.” – Joe W. Credit: Instagram / @fourbrothers_satx

17. La Frite Belgian Bistro 728 S Alamo St., (210) 224-7555, lafritesa.com “This place is the real deal if you’re into Belgian-French cuisine done right. The mussels, fries, and crab crepe were on point–packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. Every dish felt like it was made with care and real skill. The spot has a low-key, hole-in-the-wall vibe, but that just adds to its charm. It’s a true mom-and-pop operation with great service–friendly, fast, and no fuss. Prices are solid for the quality, making it easy to enjoy an incredible meal without breaking the bank. If you’re looking for great food without the pretense, this is the spot. Highly recommend!” – Roman S. Credit: Courtesy Photo / Culinaria

16. Brenner’s on the River Walk 215 Losoya St., (726) 215-8703, “Like many other locals I tend to eat off of the Riverwalk, but Brenner’s came highly recommended by a friend. They have different dining options depending on your mood: riverfront more in the hustle and bustle, indoor formal, or a cozy balcony with Riverwalk views. […] If you are craving a proper steak Brenner’s has some of the best options I have seen in town including a wagyu filet flown in directly from Japan. They also have American wagyu from Snake River Farms in Idaho, which I was excited to try. It was like butter.” – Marisa P. Credit: Courtesy Photo / Brenner's Steakhouse

24. Nonna Osteria Multiple Locations “We love Nonna Osteria! Food is always consistent. Nice wine selection and excellent wait staff. The Gnocchi with parm is my absolute favorite appetizer. The tuna tartare appetizer is huge. Highly recommend when you have a hankering for a nice simple Italian inspired lunch or dinner.” – Hope A. Credit: Photo via Instagram / nonnaosteria

14. Chef’s Table Turkish Mediterranean Grill 1546 Babcock Rd Ste 102, (210) 664-5100, chefstableturkishgrill.com “I decided to go with the grill meat plate for One and man. It was amazing. All the meat was grilled to perfection. The rice was buttery and cooked very well. And the salad to top it off was super fresh. This was easily the best meal I’ve had in San Antonio. So good that I went back twice on the same day. I will now be frequenting this place often. Make your way to if you can.” – Travis C. Credit: Facebook / Chef’s Table Turkish Mediterranean Grill

13. Boudro’s on the River Walk 421 E. Commerce St., (210) 224-8484, boudros.com “This is one of the better places to eat on the riverwalk. I had the Blue crab tostada and it was excellent.

12. Bliss 926 S. Presa St., (210) 225-2547, foodisbliss.com “Possibly the best restaurant in town. I haven’t stopped thinking about the Hamachi Tostadas. The octopus was some of the best I’ve ever had and was cooked to perfection. We reserved the chef’s table for a birthday and it was so cool seeing how the kitchen operates. Bliss is one of the few restaurants in SA with a chefs table available. We had the Chef’s tasting menu which is a 7 course meal. Everything we ate was incredible. I loved getting to try so many different things that I might not have ordered on my own. A wine pairing was available with the chefs menu, too.” – Shannon C.

11. Postino Wine Cafe – South Broadway location 2600 Broadway Ave, (830) 310-5499 postinowinecafe.com “I really like Postino on Broadway. Very chill environment to go and grab some great bites and have a couple of cocktails. Love the team service. Each server stopped by at some point to introduce themselves and/or check on us.The bruschetta boards are next level. Can’t say that one was better than another; because they were all fantastic. Looking forward to the next visit because there will for sure be a next visit.” – Mike L. Credit: Photo via Instagram / postinowinecafe

5. Flying Tiger Thai Restaurant 2114 NW Military Hwy Castle Hills, (210) 281-5521, flyingtigerthai.com “This little unassuming place probably would not have been on my radar if not for the reviews I saw here. When we arrived, we looked at the outside and got a wee bit worried. But, I had need to be worried, the inside is adorable and clean. 🙂 I was greeted and sat promptly. The server was friendly and offered suggestions and good answers to my questions. The food came out piping hot very quickly. The taste was so good! It tasted fresh and very much like Thai Taste, which recently closed and was my favorite. Do yourself a favor and go get you some of this delicious yumminess!” – Lisa W.

16. Tlahco Mexican Kitchen – Stone Oak 1662 Encino Rio, Suite 100, tlahcokitchen.com “Delicious and authentic Mexican food! I love Tex-Mex as much as the next person, but it’s so refreshing to have authentic Mexican food served in handmade ceramics. The service is quick, the prices are slightly higher than other Mexican restaurants but worth it. It’s an unassuming and casual atmosphere, but the food is high quality” – Nicole D.
