"San Antonio’s first Kimpton Hotel brought about a new era of hospitality when it opened over the summer, which is exemplified through its upscale steakhouse. The main dining room, housed in a 19th-century former schoolhouse, has a stately atmosphere that skips many Texas chophouses’ cowhide and taxidermy trappings. The menu extends that elegance with an East Coast raw bar, wagyu, and cheeky indulgences like caviar and chips. There are indoor dine-in services." - Brandon Watson
