Boiler House at Pearl is a true Texas original. Situated in the historic Pearl Brewery complex on the San Antonio River Walk, this wine-centric restaurant occupies the former “boiler house” which powered the adjacent brewery. Lead by Executive Chef Alberto "Beto" Gutierrez, the menu focuses on grilled items from local farms and markets, with a focus on “Texas ranch-style” cuisine. These delicacies are paired with extraordinary wines from around the world (available by the glass, bottle and “to-go”), full bar, live music and a casual yet energetic atmosphere. The unique list of wines boasts some of the lowest prices in the area.

The restaurant incorporates various private dining areas suitable for private or corporate functions and an expansive outdoor patio area where guests can enjoy dining alfresco. We can host groups anywhere from 9 up to 290 guests in our unique, flexible private event spaces.

Great spot for Thanksgiving dinner. The traditional turkey dinner was tops. The cocktails were fantastic too. The Pumpkin Spice Bread Pudding was off the charts. After dinner, a stroll through the Pearl offers nice Christmas decorations that put you in a festive mood. Looking forward to the next visit.

Food was fabulous. Service was good but the waiter was not very personable. He seemed to be aggravated about something and we know it was not anything we did.

Absolutely wonderful evening out with the wife! Our host Darren was a never ending book of knowledge on wines and the menu. He spoke to us about the new Texas Wild Game options. I got the Espresso Rubbed Elk Chop and my wife got the Wild Boar Lasagna and they were both phenomenal. Darren also suggested us a special bottle of wine that was out of this world. It paired so well with our wild game dishes. Vince, our second host, was an absolute pleasure to talk with and brought us our desert. We got the White Chocolate Bread Pudding and it was amazing! Vince suggested us some coffee to pair with the dessert and it went very well! All around great quiet place for a date night!

The food was amazing. Service was pretty good. The new guy did well. In time, he'll be great. We were seated under the chandelier right by the vent, and our food got cold quickly! Next time I'll make sure to ask to move or a different spot.
