- CCharlotteVIPSan Antonio •6 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoThe perfect evening for catching up with girlfriends! We had a wonderful time and the food and service was fabulous as always.More infoClementinePrice: Very Expensive• Contemporary American• North Central•4.8
- DDorcasSan Antonio •5 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoIt was a birthday celebration dinner, so we were all primed to have a great experience and we were NOT disappointed. Kristen did her best but it appeared she was the only server when we arrived — which was fine when we first arrived but as the restaurant began to fill up it tended to lend a slower pace to the evening. The food and beverages were stellar and beautifully prepared and presented. The grilled artichokes were excellent. Be sure to ask for the entrees in the secret menu — the chicken cutlet and spaghetti with meat sauce did not disappoint. The halibut was spectacular— the lemon accent was just the right touch. We dine out once a month and Restaurant Claudine will definitely be in the rotation. Thank you for making tonite so enjoyable.More infoRestaurant ClaudinePrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Downtown•4.5
- RReneeVIPSan Antonio •17 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoConsistently great food, attentive waitstaff, and lovely atmosphere. They offer two portion sizes for most entrees and I usually get the smaller which I find, in most cases, is more than enough. I've had the Denver beef several times and really enjoyed it as well as the corn pudding it comes with. And, to start with we had the chicken fried oysters which I literally crave, they're so delicious. Highly recommend!More infoBiga on the BanksPrice: Very Expensive• Contemporary American• Downtown•4.8
- PPatriciaNebraska •4 reviews5.0Dined on Jan 2, 2025We celebrated two birthdays, and Paul made our experience the best!! Paul was so friendly, the best host/server. We each ordered a different meal and they were all delicious.  And you can’t go wrong with the location, the Emma Hotel on the Riverwalk! Thank you for a memorable afternoon.More infoSupperPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Downtown•4.6
- MMarcoSan Antonio •1 review5.0Dined on Jan 1, 2025The Ambler Restaurant offers a beautifully inviting atmosphere that feels both comfortable and sophisticated. The staff is exceptionally polite and professional, making for a delightful dining experience. Our waiter frequently checked in on us to ensure everything was to our liking. When I mentioned that I would prefer my dish to be heated a bit more, she promptly and cheerfully addressed my request. To my surprise, the chef personally came out to apologize and graciously offered a complimentary dessert, along with a freshly prepared plate that was absolutely perfect. I left feeling thoroughly satisfied and would give this place all the stars if I could! The service was excellent and the ambiance elegant. I will definitely be returning!More infoAmbler - Texas Kitchen + CocktailsPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Downtown•4.2
