"A five-minute walk from the Alamo, Bohanan’s has the same air of Ol’ San Antonio as the oldest parts of the River Walk. It’s traditional in the sense that you have to put on some sleeves and pants per the dress code, but in return, expect white-tablecloth service where the staff does all but lift the fork to your mouth. The meal will begin with a cream cheese and pickled jalapeño amuse bouche that teases the taste of Texas to come. Supporting characters include crab cakes—made with zero breadcrumbs—and grilled oysters with melted butter that go down too easy. The main star is the steak, and it’s worth the price for a filet so good it doesn’t need all the fixings. Afterwards, watch your waiter prepare the rum-spiced bananas flambé tableside." - Kris Seavers
