What a special place and special people that run it, the ambiance and the overall feel was magical and just so special and the food was phenomenal! Everything about the experience from arrival to our late night exit after a wonderful conversation with the chef and owner that truly made the whole experience 5 star…I so recommend this dining experience!

La Cantera

About the restaurant

If you find yourself dreaming of the Texas Hill Country, savory comforts, spice, and the sultry depth of a fine Burgundy, you’ll be pleased to know about Signature at La Cantera Resort & Spa.

The menu is straightforward and beguiling, featuring contemporary interpretations of classic dishes — fresher, brighter versions of traditional cuisine enlivened with unconventional Texas spirit. Gulf seafood conspires with Atlantic Coast oysters flown in fresh, and the Hill Country is well-represented year-round. Local and organic ingredients change the menu as the seasons peak and wane, but the constants are quality, flavor, artistry in the kitchen and a warm welcome when you walk in the door.

The food was excellent at a more than reasonable price. Our server was excellent - never rushed us or hovered. We requested seating in the bar so we could enjoy the Happy Hour menu. Our party of four had the most enjoyable time.

Great restaurant! Staff was so kind, server Xavier was excellent, warm, welcoming and helped us decide what to order! I highly recommend their sausage! It was absolutely delicious - perfectly seasoned and tender!! Tasted more like steak than your typical sausage patty. Dublin Cherry Limeade was a great drink!
