You've probably spotted Bliss in Southtown and have made a mental note to check this place out. This is your sign to call 210-225-2547 to make a reservation right this very second!! My friends and I had a phenomenal experience at Bliss. It was everything we wanted and more! The quality of food and service was next level. The hostesses and our waiter were really down to earth and kind. But the food, oh the food!! Let me tell you what we got..
For Starters, we got the "Brown sugar cured soy glazed pork belly musubi, seasoned rice, cucumber, carrot, tomato", "Braised & charred Spanish octopus, crispy potatoes, white bean puree, avocado, scallion powder, 24 radish, coriander dressing", and "Mahi Mahi Ceviche, triple citrus marinated, jalapeño, bell pepper, avocado, plantain chips". Dude.. so good. The octopus was perfect. You MUST order it! The ceviche was great, made with orange juice so it had a nice twang to it. It came with plantain chips which aren't the easiest to dip with, but it was great just eating the ceviche with your spoon. The pork belly I wouldn't order again - it wasn't bad, but it did stand out compared to the other apps we got.
For our entrees, we got the Georges Bank Sea Scallops, Braised Beef Short Ribs, and Beef Tenderloin. All were amazing. So so delicious. If you like seafood, get the scallops! If you're in the mood for beef, I'd lean toward the short ribs, but you simply can't go wrong.
For dessert, our waiter recommended the Butter Cake and thank God he did. I had never had it before, but damn, there's a reason they're known for it. Get it with a coffee!! We also got the Goat Cheese Cheesecake to split, but didn't like it as much. (And the Butter Cake was plenty for three people, especially after how much we ate).
Overall, we had a lovely time, dining and catching up for a couple hours. This is perfect for a special occasion. I look forward to returning!
