The venue has many outdoor tables for people-watching and sits near the drive-up entrance to the historic hotel, making it a good spot to watch arrivals and fashions." - Courtney E. Smith

Simply outstanding. One of the top French restaurants in San Antonio and overall restaurants in the area. As you expect from French restaurants, this establishment is elegant, refined, and perfectly illustrates the fine dining atmosphere. It’s pricier than some of the other options in the Pearl area, but the service and food quality more than make up for it. You have plenty of French cuisine options to choose along with a very extensive list of local & international wines. It’s close to the river walk (northeast of the north side of the Riverwalk), I would definitely recommend going here.

I took my boyfriend for his birthday brunch. The restaurant was pretty quiet and able to seat us right away when we arrived. Our server was kind and attentive. The steak my boyfriend got was overcooked, which the management was quick to correct and even brought us a complimentary glass of bubbles to enjoy. The level of service is always great. The food is good, but price range is a bit high for what it is.

They do upscale the right way! I came in on a Monday afternoon in athletic leisure with my newborn baby in a stroller after discovering another restaurant at the pearl was closed on Mondays. Mon Chou Chou has always been a favorite but I wouldn’t have considered it in my attire. But I wanted a nice birthday lunch so I gave it a try. They were so welcoming opening doors directing me to the bathroom with the changing table without me asking. Amazing service at a place I would have completely expected to be judged. The food was impeccable as always. I just want to praise the restaurant for their service.

The quality of the food, the mastery of combining sauces and ingredients, the presentation — simply at a very high level. Outstanding, incredible. The price is above average. But believe me, it’s worth it if you’re looking for a true culinary experience. The coziness and atmosphere are present as well, though nothing extraordinary — just a clean, well-designed interior. Pleasant, attentive service. World-class food. Highly recommended.

Food was fantastic! Service was great as well! Antonio was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. My wife and I really enjoyed our experience there. Would 100% come back.

My hubby and I love to ride our e-bikes to the Pearl district & eat here on the patio, when it’s nice outside! We love the atmosphere, the service & the yummy food! Our server, Chris, was very friendly & attentive to our needs. This is one of our favorite restaurants!

a must on every visit to SA. bartenders are knowledgeable and friendly. they also have been there some time so friendly familiar faces is nice. cold Stella on draft and cold oysters on half shell. tried quite on bit on menu over the years and can honestly say all is good food

We came here very early in the evening, before a normal dinner time. The plan was to sit at the bar and have the raclette and escargot, then leave. These two items were so good, the drinks so good, the atmosphere so good, we decided to order more. This was my first time trying steak frites and it was excellent. Oysters were delicious and served correctly, with the brine still in the shell. The scallops were amazing. I'd come here often, if I lived in the area, just for the raclette and escargot. I think they were the highlight. Overall, this is probably the best restaurant I visited in San Antonio, and I will make it a point to come back the next time I'm in the area.

Ok Pearl, and downtown there is a new sheriff in town. What a great meal! From start to finish! Customer service SPOT ON! The cream brulee was magical. Hit the top of it with a spoon to crack the burnt sugar! Pricey? I would argue no for the quality of the meal. Oh God yes we will be back, and back! The last picture says it all!

Mon Chou Chou's Creme Brule came highly recommended from a friend. Mon Chou Chou is located in the Pearl district, close to downtown San Antonio and adjacent to the Emma Hotel (literally a few steps from the Emma hotel). According to the bartender, Mon chou chou is a French term of endearment that loosely translates to my sweetie pie or darling. It is a playful, affectionate term used with children or loved ones such as cutie. The literal translation means cabbage in French. In addition, it is also associated with the term chou à la crème, the cream puff pastry, which is sugary. You could also call someone sugar using the term chou. Mon Chou Chou is very French from the canopy covered tables outside to the display of cheese (fromage) inside the restaurant. The diffused lighting is reminiscent of a French restaurant. Now for the Creme Brule, it had plump and juicy raspberries and blackberries on top along with a nicely seared top. The creme portion was creamy and tasted good. Next time we visit Mon Chou Chou we will try their brunch.

I've been to Mon Chou Chou several times but this is my second time posting a review. We had the usual Raclette Cheese on baquette to start us off. We came with the intention of having a light meal but two of us ended up going with the cheeseburgers which were apparently quite good. I had the salad with warm goat cheese and figs which I thoroughly enjoyed. The other party in our group had the onion soup which was very filling. Service has always been good at Mon Chou Chou. We opted for outdoor sitting this time because the weather called for it. This place never disappoints.

We had a business dinner here on Tuesday and learned so much about this lovely authentically French restaurant. The food including the fantastic baguette was delectable. I had the chicken with amazing frites, a colleague had the muscles which looked and smelled to die for, I tasted the veal which was amazing. Another colleague had a tagline chicken dish, he said it tasted divine. There wasn't one thing that we didn't enjoy including the French Onion soup. The place is beautiful in a lovely location and the service was impeccable. It is really 4.5 stars.

Fun lil bistro pronounced "Mone shoo shoo" (phonetic spelling) meaning my favorite. Well, this quite possibly could become my favorite respite on a hot day walking around the Pearl District. A must try. Check it out.

Such a cool restaurant with amazing interior design and atmosphere. Great patio as well. Food is wonderful and this place is great to take a larger party. Would recommend having a reservation for dinner but lunch time you shouldn't need one

Want to start off by saying how amazing the service was. I can't remember our servers name but he had brown hair and glasses, super nice. We came on mother's day to celebrate and everyone was so nice & accommodating, they really make you feel welcome. As for the food.. My absolute favorite was the french onion soup. I'm a die hard onion fan so this has always been a favorite soup of mine and they nailed it. The scallops were my second favorite soo good and the presentation was everything. I will say I tried a few things here that was not my cup of tea. Now, I know everything was prepared well so i'm not going to give any less stars because I know other people with different pallets may like it. The escargot had a great flavor I just wasn't obsessed with the texture. The raclette and baguette was not my favorite but I know a lot of people love it. To me, it had a strong bold flavor, was rich and creamy. The unique aroma caught me a little off guard lol. Still glad I tried it. Ambiance was very nice, had good music, felt like I was in the movie ratatouille

This past Sunday night was date night for Hubby and me. We were overdue for some alone time and went to @brasseriemonchouchou for dinner. Hubby had the Perfect Thyme and I had the GLS Cadet de Ponty Merlot. We shared the Goat Cheese Salad and the Classique Baguette. Hubby had the Lupe de Mer and I had the Crispy Duck Confit. Both were cooked perfectly. Always a great time @brasseriemonchouchou! The surprising part was when we left Koehler Garage. No longer is there 2 hour free parking! Down to half hour free parking. I guess it's still better than nothing.

Brasserie Mon Chou Chou always exceeds my expectations! My husband and I decided to come here for a Valentine's day lunch date, and we had the most amazing time. Since it was Valentines (and a Friday) we decided to make a reservation ahead of time. I know in San Antonio we are not super used to making reservations, but I would highly encouraged it for this restaurant. To share, we decided to order their Sandwich au fromage raclette, which is raclette cheese sandwich on a crisp baguette, and you can include ham if you'd like. This dish always hits the spot and is absolutely delicious! For my main entree I decided to get their "Le Steak" which is a classic 9oz prime steak with fries. The staff recommended to also get the "entrecôte" sauce for the steak, and they were right. The steak was delicious, but when combines with the sauce it was absolutely perfection! Overall, I love this restaurant and I am so happy to see them doing so well!

Attended restaurant week lunch on a Friday afternoon. Quickly sat outside with a very attentive waitress. The standout dishes were the bisque and the prickly pear tart. The sweets, as expected did not disappoint. Now for the main course it was good but I have tried so many fabulous restaurants in San Antonio at this point that this one was not up to par to those. Now with that being said it was still good but I expected it to rival other top locations. Would come again but probably for light bites or dessert.

The cocktails were fabulous. I got the Time Changes Everything, which had a wonderful thick egg white texture, a smokiness from the mezcal, and a subtle pear/pineapple flavoring. The drinks weren't particularly strong, but they were delicious. We ordered the chariot de fromages with the triple cream blue cheese, truffle brie, and goat cheese. It was paired with honeycomb, candied pecans, cranberries, and a raspberry jam. They were all excellent, I just wish there had been a bit more baguette paired with it. For the main course I had the pavé de saumon. The salmon was cooked medium and just melted in your mouth. The bearnaise sauce was subtle and really let the salmon shine. I was shocked at how great the French fries were! They were crispy, perfectly salted, and had a great flavor. You can tell they use a very good oil to fry them in! Definitely not fast food. Our amazing server Rob brought us a garlic aioli to dip the frites in, which did not disappoint. I got to try the branzino dish with the browned butter sauce-- equally as good as the salmon. So creamy and flavorful. The price point is quite high, so it was great for a special occasion. The interior was very on theme without being corny, beautiful light fixtures, and tiles, warm low lighting...service was top tier, and you get to enjoy the Pearl Brewery to walk off your full belly afterwards!

Food was amazing and the ambiance was great and the service was pleasant. Now that we checked the boxes lets get to details. The staple appetizer is the fromage raclette. Melted cheese spread onto a baguette at tableside. The cheese was a new flavor for us but it grew on us by the last bite. Recommend it. Also recommend their French onion soup. Deep rich flavors. The St Jacques with the lobster was soooo good. Definitely need to order that one! For main entree the steak was great. Perfectly cooked to medium as I enjoy it. The green sauce it comes with was so good, really added complex flavor. My wife wanted something light so ordered the Mediterranean Couscous dish but be warned it wasn't light! Heavy tomato based soup with root vegetables but really great dish. Leftovers were delicious the next day. For dessert l of course, had to get creme brulee which was as perfect as you'd expect. The service was great as well, very friendly, staff well informed about the menu and had great recommendations. Another big plus was that they make mocktails with actual zero proof liquor so they taste like actual drinks and not just overly sweet fruit juice mocktails like most places! Really appreciated it!

Wow back again this evening (10/17/2025). The menu had some marvelous new additions! Bravo! The veal schnitzel and seafood stew were excellent! It's like coming home! The team who work there are awesome! Our waiter who served us prior ((Tom) is a sweetheart! We are already planning to come for the Christmas Season! I feel like I am in France and my hometown of San Francisco when we dine here! Thank you!

What a great place to gather, converse, and share delicious food. The ambience was warm and inviting. The staff were attentive and knowledgeable to all the menu items.

I liked the ambiance of this place but it wasn't the best food I've ever had . I tried the radish salad roasted vegetables and couscous . It needed salt . This was in the pearl area which everyone raved about . I think if I would have ordered a meal with cheese I would have been more happy . The dishes I saw come out were beautifully plated as well as mine . They had doilies under everything and match sticks at the front . Paper coasters . My couscous came out in a pretty pot with a lid . My husband had eggs Benedict . He said it was good but had better . The server was friendly and did a good job . I wish they would have sat us away from other people . The whole restaurant was open and they sat everyone on top of each other , you were pretty much sharing a table. I felt uncomfortable talking .

Nice ambiance, good service, mediocre food and questionable mussels = 2 stars only. The Brasserie Mon Chou Chou has the look and feel of a typical French Brasserie or Bistro. The waitress, Stephanie, was extremely friendly, professional and attentive. Unfortunately, The Moules Marinières were served with many unopened mussels and were sent back. To the restaurant's credit, the manager, Fabien Jacob, did apologize which was appreciated. In my opinion, the Salade Niçoise included what looked and tasted like water-packed canned tuna broken up with a fork - hardly authentic. Surely there are better French restaurants in San Antonio.

Alex was an amazing bar tender with hand crafted espresso martinis and spicy Bloody Mary. The cheese platter and warm baguette were delicious. I had the cheese burger with Guyere cheese, delicious flavor but too red, vs pink inside. Others had an omelette, and salmon salad. Nice spot to get out of the rain in the Pearl neigh

I cannot recommend this place enough! We are foodies who travel to France a lot and hugely appreciate great French cuisine. The food at Mon Chou Cho was simply Phenomenal! Their Ravioli with truffle mushroom was amazing, leaving us basically licking the plate. The Fois Gras, the salads, the onion soup (voted BEST in SA) were all outstanding. And the Creme Brule was one of the best we've ever had. The service was out of the world and super attentive to details. We celebrated our 32nd wedding anniversary and could not have imagined a better experience. Thank you SO much for your generosity, amazing hospitality and outstanding French dishes.

There is no other French restaurant that can compete with Brasserie in San Antonio. Starting with the outdoor decor, as I approached the restaurant, I forgot I was in SA and was instead transported back to my last visit in Paris. While Brasserie does not have chairs to sit out front like they do in Paris, with the heat in SA, that is understandable. Plus, with the location, it would be almost impossible. I have nothing but positive things to say about our experience. We came for brunch around 10 and it was not too busy, however, by 11:30-12:00 it was quite packed so I do suggest making reservations which are not hard to get as I made reservations the week of. We started with the Le Parisian and added on a chocolate croissant. We followed that by the escargot, ham & cheese omelette, the raclette as well as the pot de creme. Everything was delicious and our server Reagan was excellent!

I tried this place for brunch and it was so good! We sat outside and I loved the fact there was a light breeze with coverings and umbrellas in case it rained; the best place to people watch coming back and forth from the farmers market. The waitstaff was extremely helpful and hospitable. I got the traditional French omelet with goat cheese, spinach and chives. We also got the Escargots de Bourgogne that comes in a garlic butter sauce with a baguette that I highly recommend. We also got a croissants and bread basket which wax a perfect pairing to our meal.

Wonderful service and food! Party of 4. We tried the raclette cheese on baguette with Bayonne ham - delicious! The burgers were amazing. Lastly the crème brûlée and mocha pot were the icing on the cake. Highly recommend! We'll definitely be back!

I finally got to try Brasserie Mon Chou Chou and loved it!! It was decorated cute for the holidays, very warm and cozy environment.

Will definitely be returning again!

Not our first visit to Mon Cho Cho, so we knew we were in for a treat. We made it an afternoon of wine and appetizers. Lori took the best care of us and made our visit so special. We sat outside on in the sunshine watching passers by enjoying the weather as well. We truly enjoyed everything that came to the table, the Raclette is always a hit and you have to get it with the Jamon. The surprise hit for me was the scallops on the shell. The presentation is gorgeous and the flavor, phenomenal. I honestly can't say enough about this place!

I have been here twice now and both times i had a pleasant experience. I went for dinner the first time and had the duck confit- it was delicious ! and i also tried the steak, it was a little over seasoned but good. we ordered escargot im not a fan of it in general but the escargot fans at the table said it was yummy. i went again this week for restaurant week and had the lunch special. it was incredible. I had the greens with duck, and then the rainbow trout which was exquisite. i also tried the sausage plate it was yummy and the desserts were incredible, primarily the prickly pear dessert !!

We had a reservation for 2 at 10 AM, right when the restaurant opened. We were the only ones there, yet were seated in a cramped corner next to a filthy wall. It didn't feel like a welcoming start, so we kindly asked to be moved to a different table. The hostess was sweet and said she would check. But across the empty restaurant, we could clearly hear a brunette laughing and saying, "They can go sit outside." Moments later, the hostess returned and apologized, saying all other tables were reserved--despite the entire place being empty. We left and went across the way to Supper, where the customer service was fantastic and the atmosphere far more inviting. Very glad we made the switch.

Wished I knew this place soon as I arrived in San Antonio. The mussels were so good and the tomato broth was rich but not heavy rich which is so nice. The service was fast. The restaurant is giving rich vibes but prices of the food were reasonable.

This place is so cutely decorated, very warm atmosphere with loads of Christmas decorations for the holiday season. We sat at the bar & got espresso martinis (which are made with kahlua) so it basically ended up being our dessert drink. The gentlemen next to us insisted we try their raclette cheese- so we did & it was delicious! Service was great! Would love to come back!

06 Jul 2024 We parked on Elmira and walked up to Pearl. Hungry and weren't quite sure what we wanted. We came across Mon Chou Chou, perused the outside menu and went in. I knew it would be good because the mysterious Ryan M. enjoys this place. Ha, ha. Anyway, the husband had the steak and eggs. Comes with bacon and the country potatoes. I had the Parisian omelette (ham and gruyere) . Also served with potatoes and what I call 'good weeds'. He stuck with water, me coffee. The coffee is very reasonably priced at $2.75 and is tasty. Surprising in this day and age because iced tea has hit $4-$5 in some places. Bummer. The steak was perfectly medium, my omelette so pretty and smooth. Neither dish was overly seasoned. Just fine. Husband indulged in the pineapple tart for dessert. Topped with vanilla ice cream. I could only do a couple of bites. If I'd had room, I would have gone with the crème brûlée. My favorite. The server was great. There when needed, pleasant, unobtrusive service. We will be back.

We picked this place to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. French restaurants are our favorite so wanted to give it a try while in town. It is super bright and airy inside! The decorations suit the restaurant well. The booths were super comfortable. Service was excellent as expected. We asked lots of questions and got some great recommendations. The champagne recommended was fabulous. For food we tried: oysters, the raclette cheese appetizer with bread, and split steak frites. Oysters were fresh. The raclette was incredibly tasty. It was our first time trying raclette. We're from Wisconsin and know cheese, it was incredible! After these appetizers we decided to split our main mean. The steak was sooooo juicy and flavorful. Couldn't have been any better. Fries were perfect as well. So glad my husband talked me into trying an espresso martini and the coffee dessert! As far as the martini, it wasn't the best one I've ever had but it was above average! Everything you'd expect from one. The desert was like chocolate pudding either a slight coffee taste. Amazing! Will definitely come back when we're in town :)

These burgers came with gruyere cheese and roasted shallot sauce. It was absolutely ridiculous. The flavors were immaculate. 13/10. The French fries were nice and simple :) no complaints. The macaroni on the other hand was stupid good. STUPID GOOD. It was actually a pretty decent portion size. The raclette was also ridiculously good. The crisp baguette, smoked paprika aioli, cornichon, and bayonne ham topped with melted cheese was absolutely amazing. Yes, Sandro and I ate a lot of cheese this night but do I regret it? NO IT WAS SO WORTH IT THIS FOOD WAS PHENOMENAL!!!!!! Great food, great night. this may be my new favorite fancy restaurant ‍

Mon Chou Chou has sentimental value to me (it was my husband's favorite place to get French onion soup), but it's also one of my favorite all-around places for special occasions and regular dinners alike! Service is always on point, as is the food. My favorite dish (besides the French onion soup) is the Bavette steak with entrecote sauce and the steak tartare. Both are solid go-tos, always full of flavor. As far as drinks go, the Pamplemousse Rose is my favorite and their wine list is small, but has something for every wine lover. It's been a while since I've gone to Mon Chou Chou (my son and I went to have dinner to celebrate my love's birthday), so it might be time to return!

Food, service, and ambiance were amazing here. I had also had to sit French onion soup which was to die for!! We had a large party and they were able to accommodate us with ease. We ordered a little bit of everything and all of it was spot on! Dishes that stood out, the green beans, French onion soup, and their cheese on bread. My least favorite was the cordon bleu chicken. The blue cheese over powered the whole dish and it became too much to finish. I would recommend this place to others and hope to visit again when I come back to visit.

Wow. I've eaten at some of the best restaurants in the world, and I can honestly say Anna is the best server I've ever had. She embodies true humility and an incredible work ethic. I'm genuinely excited for her future--I know the skills she's building at Mon Chou Chou will take her far and empower her to make a real impact on the world. P.s the omelette was fantastic :) Best, Will

We came here last weekend to celebrate our 7th year wedding anniversary. Initially I reserved a 12 noon reservations for a table for two persons , but I had to move it at 1pm due to the heavy traffic and road closures . We were curious about the fromage raclette and we ordered this as our appetizer . It was worth the experience as the cheese was one of the most delicious and flavorful we tasted . I ordered the Salmon with trout eggs and hubby ordered the Le Steak as per recommendations of our service attendant , they all were flavorful . Service was on point and they gave us a complimentary glass of sparkling wine for the special occasion we were celebrating . Then lastly we ordered the Profiteroles . It was so yummy and rich and a good way to end our special meal . We will definitely come back and thank you for the little details that made our anniversary special .

I went to Mon Chou Chou twice in one week, since I was only in San Antonio for a few days. The first visit, I was so mesmerized by the food and all the amazing flavors I did not even think of taking pictures! Here is a summary of both visits: * Monday dinner - was very intimate, not too busy, quiet with just a hint of French music playing. My friend and I wanted to make the most of it, so we ordered a few things to share: charcuterie plate (highly recommend), Ravioles Gratinee (to die for), the mushroom risotto (was a bit soupy for my taste, but good), and then a bunch of sides: green beans, fries, lentils and cauliflower gratin - all absolutely delicious! I was full, so no dessert for me, but my friend got the Creme Brûlée and said it was amazing! *Wednesday dinner: completely different ambiance! It was popping and loud, full of people clearly enjoying themselves and their food! My group was quite unfamiliar with French food, so I suggested a few things to start. Assiette de fromages (7 different cheeses), served with baguette and French butter! Everyone enjoyed it, and personally I was in Heaven! Then for the meals, 3 got the duck, 2 got the fish, 1 got the Braised Beef cheeks and I got the chicken Cordon Bleu! We also got a few sides to share. My dish was delightful and transported me back home after just the first bite! Fries were perfection again. I had to skip on dessert because I was too full, but the few who got some really enjoyed it! Definitely worth adding to your list of restaurants to try if you have not done so already. Additional Note: I know one of the chefs and he is one of the best!

Another great meal at Mon Chou Chou. Our favorite way to get a bit of France in San Antonio. Had some Scallops St Jacques, a Tangine with merguez sausage, and my wife had Icelandic Cod with Sea Asparagus and Hollandaise ("Dutch sauce"). Our waiter was attentive and helpful, suggesting good wines, and the baguette we had sealed the meal with crusty goodness. The atmosphere is always calm and unhurried.

The food was definitely amazing. The wait time between appetizers and meal was a bit excessive. There was a large party beside us and it appeared the kitchen was not equipped to get all the meals out in a timely fashion. Definitely try the Cod though. Our waiter was amazing, very knowledgeable, pleasant and handsome. Can't recall his name, but surely the only "ginger" in the place.

If you want to feel boujee or have a girls night this is the place to go. Wear your beret or strip shirt and head your way for a cocktail or two. The drinks are really strong. One lychee martini gave me a buzz but then again I became a light weight. I'm obsess with mushroom and they had a season mushroom tart? It was so good. Don't get scared of all the French names. My Mexican self was trying to pronounce it. Lots of couples go but honestly it's a nice place to go by yourself. Power move! My friend always gets the steak, it's huge! Like the portions are honestly not that bad I'm always full. On menu it doesn't seem like a lot but it kinda is. All the deserts are good but my favorite one so far was the chocolate one with caramel. I'll put a pic. Mocha something

A great find in Pearl. Truly simple French. The food is delightful and not overdone and definitely stands on its own as very well pulled off. The exterior street scape reflects a true French experience. The interior is not overdone and is more simply elegant. The service staff was extremely helpful and true to form with wonderful suggestions.

I was really looking forward to trying this French bistro, but unfortunately, the experience fell far below expectations. The food we had in-house was mediocre at best, but the real issue came when I got home with my to-go order - there was a cockroach in the food! This completely ruined the meal and left me disgusted. While the service was great, the cleanliness of the restaurant clearly needs serious attention. I will not be returning, and I strongly advise others to be cautious. They have cockroaches!

I came here with friends for a divine Saturday brunch!! This is the most chic French restaurant and the food backs it up too. Everyone was superb! The atmosphere is both bougie but chill at the same time. The cocktails were amazing and everything came out really fast. Might recommend the little raviolis--I still think about them many weeks later. Highly recommend and can't wait to come back on my next trip to San Antonio!

This restaurant didn't disappoint. We stayed at Hotel Emma and was suggested by this restaurant. Loved the ambiance and extremely friendly staff. They were very knowledgeable and recommended some great dishes. I'll visit again next time I visit
