Maverick Texas Brasserie

From the moment we stepped into the restaurant, we were thoroughly impressed. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with just the right balance of energy and elegance. Whether you're coming for a romantic evening, a dinner with friends, or a special celebration, the ambiance creates a memorable experience. The food was truly exceptional — every dish we ordered was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. You can tell that a lot of care goes into the ingredients and preparation. Each bite felt thoughtfully crafted, and the variety on the menu offers something for every palate. Our waiter (Matthew) was absolutely wonderful. Attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, they made us feel right at home and elevated the entire dining experience. It’s rare to find service that feels so genuine and effortless. We also sampled a few of their specialty cocktails, which were just as impressive as the food. The drinks were creative, well-balanced, and complemented our meal perfectly. And don’t even get me started on the desserts — they were divine! Rich, indulgent, and perfectly portioned, each dessert felt like the perfect ending to an already outstanding meal. This restaurant is a gem — highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy high-quality cuisine, exceptional service, and a beautiful dining atmosphere. We’ll definitely be returning!

Fabulous experience and I highly recommend Mavericks'. Attentive and professional staff. Fabulous food and great cocktails. Top shelf all the way around. I had the bone in rib eye with potatoes and asparagus. It was cooked to order and had great flavor. Calamari and octopus appetizer was on point. Seasoned with a special blend of spices which was incredible. Just a really good meal. Also there are a variety of menu items to accommodate anyone's budget.

We had dinner there this past Thursday, and we really liked the atmosphere abd outstanding service. Our server Jewel was really attentive all night, and the manager Dylan had great inputs on wine and food. For the appetizer, and our favorite dish there that night, we went with the fried octopus and calamari. Just delicious with great seasoning. The pork was ok, and the moules frites disappointing as they were tiny. But, Jewel brought us a second order, which was a nice gesture!

Absolutely phenomenal experience at Maverick Texas Brasserie! The ambiance was exceptional, with different areas tailored for various occasions—whether you're out for a casual drink or a more intimate dinner. The bar area had a great vibe with just the right lighting to set the mood. The drinks were expertly crafted, and the service was outstanding—our servers made sure we were well taken care of the entire night. Now, the food… simply phenomenal. The pasta was creamy, perfectly textured, and bursting with flavor. The steak was full of rich flavor and cooked exactly to temperature. And the calamari? Some of the best I've ever had—crispy, tender, and delicious. Highly recommend this place. A must-visit in San Antonio!

Happenstance stop at Maverick Texas Brasserie. After missing our party at Rosario’s, my husband and I decided to give this place a try. Pleasantly please. Personal spirits taste would say they need to get Uncle Nearest Whiskey, but no other issues experienced. We will be back.

The bright green bottle of Stella Artois 0.0% appears incongruous in Maverick's sophisticated setting, but it's emblematic of the restaurant's inclusive approach. Like the alcohol-free beer, Maverick Texas Brasserie defies easy categorization—neither fully French nor completely Texan, but rather a delightful hybrid that draws from both traditions. Opened in February 2018 by restaurant veteran Peter Selig (of Biga and Acenar fame) along with partners Chris Carlson and Miguel Ardid, Maverick occupies a thoughtfully renovated 8,500-square-foot historic building in San Antonio's artsy Southtown district. The space successfully balances industrial elements—exposed brick, concrete floors, and visible ceiling infrastructure—with warm touches like cane-back chairs and navy banquettes. The restaurant's motto, "Make Your Own Rules," perfectly captures its approach to French brasserie cuisine. Rather than slavishly recreating Parisian classics, Chef Ed Ebert adapts French techniques to Texas sensibilities and ingredients. The result is both familiar and surprising. Most dishes emerge from a wood-fired grill that imparts distinctive pecan and oak notes. The pork schnitzel—massive, golden-brown, and topped with a perfectly fried egg—exemplifies the kitchen's ability to execute with precision while adding Texas-sized generosity. Their burger, featuring house-ground beef cooked precisely to temperature and served with impeccable fries, rivals any in the city. Vegetarians aren't afterthoughts here; a salad of mixed greens with blackberries, spiced nuts and crumbled cheese demonstrates thoughtful composition. Those seeking classic French fare will find excellent escargot bathed in a garlic-herb cream that begs to be sopped up with the accompanying crusty bread. The restaurant's daily-changing plat du jour specials ($35 for three courses) offer outstanding value and a constantly refreshed menu. The beverage program is equally thoughtful. An exceptional wine list emphasizes French regions without intimidation, offering both splurge-worthy bottles and accessible options. The cocktail menu features creative options like the Blackberry Paradis, which balances fruit with unexpected spice. Perhaps most impressively, non-drinkers are treated with respect, as evidenced by the premium non-alcoholic beer options. Service strikes the ideal balance between professionalism and Texas friendliness. Waitstaff navigate the dining room efficiently, water glasses never reach empty, and recommendations are offered with genuine enthusiasm rather than upselling pressure. The staff's knowledge of both the menu and the restaurant's concept reflects thorough training. The restaurant's various spaces accommodate different dining moods. The front bar and dining area buzzes with energy, making it ideal for people-watching. A more intimate middle dining room offers a quieter experience, while the covered patio with its wicker seating and abundant greenery creates a garden-like atmosphere. Private spaces accommodate everything from intimate gatherings to events for up to 250 guests. Despite its upscale atmosphere, Maverick maintains reasonable prices, with most mains between $20-35. The daily happy hour (4-6pm) and $35 plat du jour specials offer particularly good value. In a city known for Tex-Mex and barbecue, Maverick Texas Brasserie carves out a unique culinary identity—French-inspired but distinctly Texan, sophisticated but unpretentious. It's a restaurant that encourages diners to linger, whether over a three-course dinner or simply a glass of wine and an appetizer at the bar. Like its namesake, it breaks conventions while creating something that feels both novel and enduring.

I had a business dinner tonight and everything was excellent. Our Bone-In Ribeye steak was cooked to perfection, and our server, Angela T., was outstanding—attentive, friendly, and professional. She really made the evening even better. Highly recommend!

Had a wonderful steak tartare and the blackened rib eye that was a special. The happy hour cocktails were delicious. The restaurant is very clean, polished and a lot of thought has gone into the aesthetics of the place... Ideal spot for date night or a family treat. Very friendly chef too who helped with dietary requirements

We did dinner at Maverick after seeing the Nutcracker at the Tobin. It was lovely! The menu had something for everyone, the wine list and cocktails were great, and the service was fabulous. Our waiter, Jose, took excellent care of us.

Four of us went on a Saturday. They have no lunch menu on weekends, so we all had brunch, even though some of us wanted lunch. There were 3 employees in the dining room -- our waiter, a bar tender, and a guy in a suit who didn't seem to have any function at all. We ordered drinks and our menu slections; and immediately asked for more water -- which we didn't get until we asked again 10 minutes later. I ordered steak and eggs, over easy. This meal comes with frites. My eggs were cooked hard, and my frites were burned black. I requested new eggs and frites, which, when I got them, were pretty good. The "sharable" bowl of onion soup was single serving anywhere else. The food, overall, was good. The service was NOT -- other guests who arrived well after we did got their food much more quickly that we did. We had to ask for salt, more water, and my food made over. Not worth the very expensive prices for such mediocre service.

This place surprised me as a first timer. Food was delicious and service was great. The soft lighting and peaceful music was very pleasant. The prices were fair for the location and quality of the food. Highly recommended!

One our favorite brunch and dinner spots. For brunch the donut was my fave, which they took away, and that sadly made us stop going for brunch. If they still had the donut we would go back for brunch. For dinner, we always chose different entrees and never had a bad one, or one we didn't like. You can't go wrong with anything you order on the dinner menu, everything is very flavorful. The space is quite big, with multiple rooms so you don't feel overcrowded or that it's ever too loud. It's nice and quiet for a date night.

This is a HEAVY contender for my absolute favorite restaurant in San Antonio. The service every single time we've been here has been great. The staff is so attentive and genuinely give all their attention to you as a guest. The ambiance is top tier. We've always been sat near the front of the restaurants in the booths and no complaints there! If ever a choice the booth is always my first choice. Now to touch on the food of course! The Parmesan truffle gnocchi will keep you coming back for more I would order this is as my meal every time- an absolute don't skip menu option...trust me!

**The Maverick Texas Brasserie: A Must-Visit on South Saint Marys Street** Our recent visit to The Maverick around 5:30 PM was a delightful experience from start to finish. Despite the long waits, the hostess promptly offered us a table, but we opted to sit at the bar for a more relaxed vibe. The calamari and octopus were outstanding in both taste and presentation, and the Brussels sprouts were a definite must-have! The bartenders were exceptionally helpful, even suggesting cocktail choices beyond the menu. I ordered a twist on the bartender's Black Manhattan, as they do not have Averna. Their version is highly recommended, especially if you enjoy a robust flavor profile. They have an impressive selection of rye whiskeys, and I chose Rittenhouse for its pungent flavor, which hit the spot. Overall, the experience was pleasant, with professional and friendly bartenders and waitstaff. The Maverick is definitely a great starter for the night, and I can't wait to visit again! Cheers!

Had the pleasure of visiting this restaurant on Saturday night for an amazing dinner experience. It was my first time at this restaurant, and I was very impressed with the great service, beautiful atmosphere, and the food/drink items we tried, all delicious and full of flavor! Our waitress Magdalene was very helpful with going over the menu items in full detail and made great suggestions. She informed us of a special menu they have that runs through 8/9/24, 3 course meal for $25. Amazing deal!! I will definitely be back before it ends. Perfectly located in Southtown, not far from downtown area. Makes for a great date night as it is a very elegant yet relaxed atmosphere. Pork Confit tender pork shoulder, haricot verts, crushed potatoes GOUGÉRES delicately baked cheese puffs Bread basket housemade breads with whipped butter (Dessert pictured but forgot the name it was soo good she described it as sort of a creme brulee type dessert) Drinks: TIGER IN A TROPICAL STORM vodka, pineapple, basil, bay leaf, dolin dry, lime juice, ginger & turmeric salt LA RÊVERIE ROSA 14 tequila, raspberries, cointreau, lemon, topo chico Espresso Martinis

The place do look busy and lot of people. Guess appointments would be more preferable. Walked in with friends. The front hostess put down our number and told us that it would be 10 minutes wait. We waited at the bar around 30 minutes. The bartenders were busy with making drinks. So pretty much, we waited for someone to take our order but none were really paid attention at us. Knowing the place busy but situation awareness were out of the window. So yah, earned one star for my first experience.

Long cold dinner. We were looking forward to the restaurant week menu and the table next to us received their dinner, paid their bill and left before we even received our entrées. The soup had a good flavor, but was cold one guest in our group his fish was cold and sent back. My husbands steak was overdone. The waiter blamed us for ordering from the restaurant week menu and that is why it was delayed. They did nothing to compensate us. Feel like they should've given us a free appetizer or drink. Won't be going back!

We had a large work event at this location and I can say the service was on point. Starting off with some amazing servers and bartenders. The bartender made me a very tasty mock-tail not sure what was in but it was delicious. The food wasn't my favorite part of the experience. My steak was over cooked I asked for medium rare and it was more of well done. The soup didn't have much flavor. My colleagues had roasted pork loin and I wish I would have got a picture. It cooked well and had great flavor. My favorite part of this meal was the cheesecake though. I will come back here in the future. I would rate the food a 3 but the servers and bartenders moved this location to a 4.

First time coming here, as a french family we love testing French / "frenchish" restaurants where we live. The employees were super nice and friendly. Our server was great! He was really attentive to our needs, he explained everything (specials, etc.) super well, and he even waited fo approach sometimes as to not interrupt our conversations! Amazing service, ambiance, and everything overall!! The reasons I'm leaving 3 stars instead of 5 is because, yes service was amazing, but we spent almost 2 hours in here. Secondly, I had the moules frites, which is one of my favorite foods / dishes to order in European restaurants and make myself, and I was disappointed. The sauce was really heavy, creamy, and barely had a taste of white wine, and I feel like I also almost had an aftertaste of cheese; was not traditional moule preparation. Some of them also had a bit of a weird taste, and I felt sick a few minutes after eating what I could. Everyone else at the table loved their food though! Not a disappointing or bad experience at all, just a little slow and I couldn't handle the mussels. Would definitely recommend, however, and I would come back to try other dishes!

Had a reservation for New Years Eve. Just got notified today, less than a day out, that there is now a pre-selected menu. Not cool and not anything I want to order. This is an important detail that should be disclosed up front, not less than 24 hrs before my reservation

Maverick is a real find. We were in San Antonio for a conference and Maverick was highly reviewed and made the cut for our two nights out in San Antonio. We had reservations for 5 on a Wednesday night and were pleasantly surprised that it wasn't crowed. This is a simply gorgeous restaurant. We had excellent service and sampled some delicious appetizers including the Calamari and Octopus and the crispy house frites. I had to try the Baked French Onion Soup and it was incredibly delicious and full of flavor. I had salmon as my entrée and it was good, but not my favorite. The people here are fun, knowledgeable and had great recommendations. Thanks to our server, we cancelled the next nights reservation for Italian and discovered a hidden gem. We will be back...it was a relaxing evening with great company.

The ambiance was chic and polished. We were celebrating a birthday and came for brunch on Sunday. We definitely enjoyed the photo worthy decor and vibe, but often found ourselves whispering to avoid attention from other customers. It was VERY quiet in here with 4-5 other tables and if we even laughed a bit louder, we had stares from other customers as if it was their home and we disturbed them. I would suggest maybe having us in a party area or something next time because it felt uncomfortable at times. This isn't 100% a restaurant issue so I did not take away stars for this. The cinnamon bun was delicious. We really enjoyed that and shared with the table. My French dip was not fine dining material. The steak was well done, usually I can order how I want the steak and was told no. Well done steak rarely has flavor, which was disappointing-- the bread was super burnt on the bottom side. I know the crispness of the bread is trying to simulate a baguette but it was a bit overkill as it just tasted like charcoal. You can see on the picture how black the bottom of the bread was, but I didn't feel like complaining, as mentioned it was a friends birthday. The truffle fries were delicious! My friends enjoyed their French dip (no complaints because her bread was not burnt and she liked well done steak) -- the special, which was a quiche -- super delicious and the flavors were on point. With all of this to say.. we were confident that burning a piece of bread would not hinder us coming back but we were taken aback by our server. We were disappointed in our server when we ordered a bottle of champagne and were told by him that they'd be giving us another bottle on the house. This isn't uncommon for us and definitely not the first time - 4 pretty girls at brunch, celebrating a birthday.. we have been given complimentary champagne/wine from other restaurants before and were told after we ordered our next bottle that he couldn't cover it anymore and he just giggled. Not sure if this was his first day working - but definitely not a great way to keep a customer. We paid for the bottle, not that big of a deal, but it's the principle we were more offended by.

What a great night at Maverick Texas Brasserie. Charles the valet was so warm and welcoming, definitely started the night on a smooth vibe. Great suggestions from the team on wine and food pairings. Thank you Afton and Syria. You ladies made our night so wonderful. The bar staff were inviting and really made our time at the bar top so fun. Lovely chairs to belly up to and the bar top is gorgeous for those bar top diners. We started off with a Bourgogne Chardonnay and enjoyed it with a beef tartare. Main course was the infamous Pork Schnitzel with the lemon caper sauce paired with a Pinot Blanc. The schnitzel was crispy and well seasoned, great for sharing since we added the roasted cauliflower and Mac and cheese with lardons. Amazing! Two very hungry gals almost finished it all. As for dessert, I'm never leaving without my profiteroles. Three are more than enough and they were just how I remembered. Delicious with a glass of Pinot noir on the side. We've been coming to Maverick for years and this time around was the best. Keep up the solid performance Maverick Team. We will be back.

A bit of a spikey experience. Service was very friendly but extremely slow, 30 minutes for our drinks to come out after order. Clean modern dining area. Food was very good and reasonably priced for quality. Kid friendly. Not a bad choice if don't mind extremely slow service.

Finally was able to go try this place and WOW!! So sorry it's taken me so long. Definitely my loss for sure. Great place for a date night which is what we did. Very intimate ambiance. Great place to wow your date. Quiet enough to have good conversation. The staff was amazing. We sat at the bar which was nice. Everyone behind the bar was knowledgeable and helpful. The food was outstanding. Definitely pick anything - it'll be good. Would definitely go back. Go check them out for yourself.

Came in for lunch for Culinaria's Restaurant Week. The menu was on point and the food DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!! Such a great value for a three course meal from a first class restaurant AND for a good cause!!! The Chicken Paillard was exceptionally delicious! If you only go to one SARW lunch, this should be it!

Super slow service and big tall balding waiter is disrespectful. Very expensive and the ambiance leaves a lot to ask for. Food was mediocre; not sure why anyone would go here given the many great choices close by. The super slow service got blamed on the kitchen which shows a lack of accountability and disconnect between kitchen and wait staff.

So, we discovered this little jewel next to Rosario's restaurant. We decided to give it a try and it did not disappoint. Our server Jonathan was very informative with their dinner menu. Great device and will be back to try their breakfast, as suggested by Jonathan. If you haven't, give this place a try.

This is a beautiful restaurant. We came for a Saturday brunch and sat inside. Our server Josiah was very welcoming and attentive. I ordered the eggs Benedict sans the ham to make it a vegetarian option. It came with a side of potatoes to make it a filling meal. A friend ordered the coffee cinnamon roll for the table, not a fan of coffee and if you are not either fyi you will taste the coffee flavor. But it's a decent size roll she had plenty to take home. We also ordered a bottle for mimosas and the juice options are ok, pineapple, cranberry, and grapefruit. Overall a really nice place with good food and service and great ambiance.

We had a wonderful meal at Maverick! We began with a beer...great choices both in draft and bottle/cans. My wife had a kolch draft and I had the Independent Austin Amber...wow, such a great beer I had two! Our appetizer was the calamari and octopus. The appetizer included roasted red peppers for a little punch and different types of potatoes. The spice on it was amazing. Five stars for us! We usually split an entree and tonight we decided on the pork schnitzel. It was bigger than our heads, so we were glad to split it. We added the mushrooms and a fried egg for an up charge. They left off the egg, but added it later. No biggie for us. Jessica was a very attentive waitress and had time to chat with us, as it was my wife's first time in San Antonio. Very nice setting for a "fancy" meal. We decided against the Valentines Day special of a tomahawk steak for $165.00. Too special for our wallet! We would go back in a heartbeat! Loved it!

What was supposed to be an outing of drinks and snacks turned into a whole dinner, even including dessert. We just wanted to grab a seat at the bar but luckily got seated at an actual table. Our server, Brittney, was the absolute best and took great care of us throughout our evening. Our cocktails were boozy yet balanced. The salad was fresh and a great way to start off. We loved the pecans and goat cheese combination. We then got their mac n cheese, which was great, and their pork chop plate. Everything was cooked well, served hot and tasted fresh. We were having so much fun that we got their berry cheesecake for dessert. It was smooth, delicate, tart, and I enjoyed their house made whipped cream. We paired dessert with their carajillo cocktail, which was one of the best I've ever had since it was topped with smoked cinnamon. A fantastic experience. And would definitely come back to try their schnitzel or grab a drink at their lovely bar. Also, their music selection is chill and lovely to set a nicely refined ambiance.

I recently dined at this restaurant with impressive decor and a pleasant ambiance. However, I must mention that finding parking was a not satisfactory. On the positive side, the food was absolutely delicious. The brussel sprouts and hazelnut dish had a delightful twist that I thoroughly enjoyed. Moreover, we requested our tomahawk cooked Pittsburgh style & it was cooked to perfection, showcasing the chef's expertise. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with the vanilla bean creme brulee. It arrived too burnt, and when I brought it up to the waiter, they insisted it was intentional. It should taste toasted not leave a burnt taste lingering in your mouth. Next time just own up to it to the oversight. I'm not sure how it even pass the expeditor. One glance at the color you can tell it was torched a few seconds too long. Custard was cooked exceptionally well however the burnt cream was too much that we couldn't enjoy another bite. We asked to remake it since I was craving creme brûlée, but the second attempt fell short as it was underdone and the custard lacked the quality of the original. The second attempt was under torched & the custard was soupy. Whoever prepares the dish needs more fine tuning on their technique. Despite this flaw, the restaurant's culinary offerings, affordable pricing & particularly the standout dishes, left a lasting impression.

This was a very disappointing outing for New Year's Eve, and certainly not the experience or quality we expected after her favorable feedback and reviews. We had a party of seven, four adults and three children (7, 10 and 10) and understood they had a prefix menu which we weren't overly excited about. We chose to go either way based on the reputation. The kids options were worse than the adults with only chicken, steak strips, and macaroni and cheese, but what was less ideal was getting 2 to 3 courses as adults while they sat there and watched. So, of course we shared our small plates with them. The charcuterie was small and decent, however, the salad and bisque options were horrible. The salad was mixed greens with olive oil and Parmesan crumbs, extremely basic. The bisque was neither creamy nor smooth, and reminded us of baby food - not an exaggeration, pretty much exactly what it tasted like. The entrées didn't get any better - we can't speak to the halibut, but the prime rib was poor at best (chewy/low quality cut and poorly prepared) while the duck was foul and gamy. The evening was topped off by my daughter's macaroni and cheese coming out with a hair in it and needing to be replaced. When we left, our bill for the evening was just shy of $500 for two adults and three children, as the other couple had a separate check. A bit higher due to the two adults having two drinks each. You would expect that a top rated restaurant would not take advantage of a holiday rush to impose such a poor experience for a family dishing out $500 for a nice meal. The only true highlights were the chocolate cake and the kids ice creams. Those are low highlights for that size check - very disappointing........

I liked the Texas Fusion thing that they got going on here. Like everything in Texas the portions are large as well as the flavors. Had a really good steak here accompanied by a nice texas wine, which I would not normally order. Food was exceptional, was with a chef group on a food tour so we got to try quite a few dishes. I totally reccomend this place, very comfortable, well run, good service, but not very innovative. They stay in their lane and execute well. Chances are good, You'll have a very good experience here.

Maverick, a question, what is brunch in your world? In mine a simple brunch includes access to coffee. For your establishment it clearly means a broken coffee machine, our me: "a cup of black coffee please". server: "sorry, our regular coffee machine is broken and but we can do an espresso and water it down and serve you an Americano." Opted for two cappuccinos. They were good, but brought to us without spoons or sugar, those had to be requested. In my world, the advertised Parisian benedict when offered, doesn't change dramatically from the listed offering, server: "so sorry, the kitchen says that they don't have croissants but will prepare it on sliced sourdough if you like?" No, thank you. We don't like. The decor is pretty, it was very lightly occupied (3 tables and a few bar seats) but with an already small/limited menu, we decided to go elsewhere. Our/this reservation was a bust. So we paid for our cappuccinos and left.

Happy with the ambience and service, but not so with the food! This is a chic spot with average fare. Nothing that tantalizes the taste buds....As mentioned, ambience and service were excellent but the flavor of the food was meh. The foie gras and roasted Brussel sprouts were probably what stood out the most for me. Anyway, my friend and I spent quite sometime here.

Service was excellent, food is superb. Will definitely come back again. The tomahawk steak is the best steak I ever had.

Came here for my birthday and had such a unique special experience! Our server was Josiah and he was very knowledgeable about the menu and a pleasure to talk to! The ambiance is classy yet comfortable :) and don't even GET ME STARTED ON HOW GOOD THIS FOOD WAS! We got the tomato soup and french onion soup with the cheese puffs for an appetizer, split the GIANT entree of schnitzel, which i must add.. i have had schnitzel in germany multiple times and Mavericks hit it right on the head! i am hooked! to finish it off, we had the crème brûlée and it beat any birthday cake i could of asked for!! We WILL most definitely be back! thank you for such a special evening! ( i didn't get a picture of the schnitzel cause we tore it up so fast hehe! that's how good it was )

great service and great food. Perfect for anniversary or birthday celebration. Love the ambience of the restaurant.

My step son recommended that we eat at Maverick and even though it was a thirty minute drive from our hotel it was worth the drive. We had driven up to San Antonio to escape TS/Hurricane Beryl and were very tired and hungry. The waitstaff was very friendly and attentive. We ordered gougeres (like a cheese puff) and beef tartare as appetizers. The gougeres melt in your mouth, so light and airy. The beef tartare was very nice. The little gerhkin pickles and creamy sauce give the tartare a lagniappe. I ordered the three meat grill: 6 ounce ribeye, smoked sausage and quail. It was perfect! A marriage of Texas Hill Country and French cuisine, the rib eye melted in my mouth. The sausage was pure HC cuisine. My husband's rib eye was good. He liked the peppercorn sauce. My teenage daughter ordered the salmon with buerre blanc sauce and she ate the entire fillet! My teenage son enjoyed his peppery burger. For dessert I ordered a lemon curd tart with merengue. The merengue was perfect. The crust was delightful and the lemon curd was bright and tangy. I didn't eat as much as I would have liked because I was so full from my entree! My son ordered a vanilla fudge sundae and was disappointed. The vanilla ice cream had a slight lime taste. Maybe they used a little creme fraiche instead of whole milk in the ice cream. My husband had the same issue with his profiteroles, the vanilla ice cream had a hint of buttermilk or creme fraiche in it. It was not an American style ice cream. The atmosphere was warm and cozy. I loved the smell of the restaurant even though I couldn't quite place the fragrance. Lavender? Cedar? The candle burning in the bathroom said eucalyptus sage but I don't think that was the fragrance in the dining room. We were there for a couple of hours and did not feel as if the wait staff was trying to push us out the door. My only real complaint would be that the chair backs were rounded and I was unable to hang my purse from my chair so I put it on the corner of our table, not really where I wanted it. I will definitely come here again, there were other items on the menu I want to experience!

Great atmosphere, food was very good and not the overpriced tourist food found on the Riverwalk. Also great conversations with the bartenders. I hope to be back next year.

I came to maverick for Burch with a few friends and I was not too impressed with the food. The location is really nice and they staff was also very friendly but the food lacked flavor. I ordered a cappuccino and a salmon bagel. I felt like the salmon lacked flavor and the egg lacked salt. My sister got the omelet and again it lacked flavor. Not sure that I'd recommend the brunch here I feel like there are a lot of better options. Also they do not have parking on the location, but I found parking a block down.

Have been there twice. Once with a group of 6 adults and everything was wonderful. The steaks cooked to perfection, drinks, wine, service Stellar. The 2nd time was with my son who flew in from SoCal. He loves steak fries so we had his birthday dinner there. He was thrilled and so was I. Great King William location.

Amazing food and service. A must when in San Antonio. An off the river walk and well worth a short walk.

While the restaurant itself is very pretty, the food was kind of disappointing. It's labeled as "fine dining" but it didn't give off that vibe. I found my chicken to be really tough. The service was great, but it just didn't make up for the mediocre meal

Visited Maverick Texas Brasserie for the first time a couple of weeks ago; we met some friends for a brunch on Saturday morning about 10a. Reservations were recommended, although I don't know why - we had the "garden room" (for lack of a better term) - almost entirely to ourselves - which was fine - we aimed not to disturb other diners with TWO infants. The outside garden room area has a GREAT feel - covered yet still kinda airy. Bright. It was a great contrast to the inside of the joint - which even at 10a seemed too dark. As a table, we started off with their cinnamon bun, which was fantastic and more than big enough for four adults to share. Highly recommend. As for my main course, I opted for the Steak frites, which was also very good, but for a NY Strip - it was a tad too fatty. The frites were absolutely worth it, though. In fact, for the price I paid for that meal - and for the size of the omelette my wife got - you definitely get your money's worth. Our server was also very good - I wish I could remember his name (Josiah, maybe?) - he had the perfect balance of checking on us and leaving us alone. Overall: I'd like to go back to Maverick and experience dinner, but if it's anything like brunch - I'm betting I leave full after paying a reasonable price!

My favorite place in San Antonio! Fantastic food, great service and the ambiance is classy, yet casual. Outdoor bistro, tavern style bar & classy indoor tables make this restaurant a memorable experience for business deal making or special celebrations. In the heart of downtown SA, perfect for before or after entertainment at the Tobin, Majestic or Empire, or for "deal making" with high powered executives downtown!!! Also, great for any "night on the town"!!! I highly recommend it!

So, I just walked in and was seated right away. The hostess' were very friendly, and the service from the entire staff was excellent. Was seated by myself in a separate room, which was amazing, the music and decor were great and very comfortable. Then comes the food, the gougeres, wood fired mixed grill and Mac and cheese were perfect. I read some of the one star reviews and can't see their reviews play out with the individuals that I met at Mavericks.

I'm very impressed with the menu selections. The trout and the mussels were fantastic!! Unusually eclectic wine selection, really impressed with it! The bartender, who also served us dinner, was awesome!!

If you're looking to host an event for a moderate size crowd, Maverick Texas Brasserie is where you want to be. The food, ambiance, and service were top notch. We were greeted by the gentlemen in valet who were courteous and quick, then escorted to a private room. In our way to our room, I couldn't help but to notice the upscale urban industrial style of decor in the general dining area. The lighting was warm and romantic and it smelled amazing. Once we made it to the private room we were greeted by the dedicated staff who let us know how the event would run for the evening. Once the happy couple arrived, everyone's meals came out. My husband, son, and I all ordered the NY Strip Steak with mashed potatoes and sautéed green beans. They were flavorful and cooked to perfection. My son is very picky and even he loved it. Portions were perfect. We also had a few drinks and I have to say they were well made. The Maverick's staff was so welcoming of our large family event. There had to be at least 40 of us. They were accommodating and let us customize everything. We'll be hosting here again.

Food was great! Our waiter said they just overhauled their menu and everything that came out was wonderful. Started with the escargot, salad, and French onion soup. Escargot was flavorful, French onion soup consistency was perfect and had a good amount of cheese and croutons, and the dressing on the salad was delicious. I felt bad for our waiter because we'd try to order specific drinks like a Dos Equis or TX whiskey and they did not have them. I do think they should warn customers after they sit down what is not available on the menu on that particular night. We tried to order the tower as well and they didn't have it, so that was disappointing. Overall, the restaurant is beautiful, it's clean, and it's much bigger than you'd expect. At the end of the night, we paid about $290 including tip for all of the food pictured below (there were 4 people in our party)

Way too expensive for the tomahawk! I've had WAY better steak at Longhorns, damn thing didn't even have enough salt. So disappointing. Got hit with an insane $400 bill at the end.

Tonay and Mia are ROCKSTARS! These two beautiful young ladies provided a level of service that I have not witnessed in quite some time. 20 YELP stars deserved. We ambled in here off the street after walking all over San Antonio. I'm pretty sure you needed reservations at this amazing restaurant, but we were seated right away and taken care of like regulars. The food was sensational! I had a Kolcsh and the cheesy puffs appetizer. I couldn't pronounce the name, much less remember what they were called, but it reminded me of my favorite childhood snack, Tidbits! Not sure why they don't make those anymore. We had the burger and fries...poivre frites. The burger was cooked perfectly medium, and Tonay split it for us, with separate plates for sharing. I didn't want to leave! Maverick was that good. Mia spent time sharing all the eclectic things we could do after dinner in San Antonio. She was spot on with her recommendations. Maverick is a restaurant I would be at every week if I lived there. A must visit on our next trip to San Antonio. Pro tip.......check out the magical bathroom at Maverick!

Great for brunch! Definitely coming back for dinner. Sat at the bar and received amazing service from Gus tending the bar! Very cool indoor music vibes. Southtown rocks!

I was walking around and stumbled across this place. I came around 5:30pm and thankfully I did because it quickly got packed! The restaurant was beautiful inside! It was my first time here, our waiter Jonathan was helpful, patient, attentive, and knowledgeable. I started with the up in smoke mezcal tequila drink. It was very delicious, the mezcal wasn't overpowering which was delightful. For an appetizer, I got the calamari and octopus. The octopus was juicy and tender while the calamari was nice and crunchy. I ordered the salmon, 43 oz Tomahawk steak, mushrooms, Brussel sprouts and the Burger. The salmon was small in my opinion, but tasty nonetheless. I wish the asparagus was cooked a little longer but I understand it's more of a garnish. If you get the salmon I would definitely recommend a side, the mushrooms and Brussel sprouts paired perfectly together with the salmon. The tomahawk steak was tender and flavorful, it did have more fat than I would've liked. The burger was absolutely delicious and the fries were freshly made! For dessert, I got the strawberry mousse, crème brûlée, vanilla ice cream, and the ice cream sandwich (I forgot the name of it). The strawberry mousse was the best one! The mousse was on top of a lemon cake and the combination was perfectly paired together. The crème brûlée was a little watery in my opinion. The ice cream sandwich was also very good! The ice cream was between a dough almost which was different but tasty. The dessert is made fresh to order so there is a wait for it. All in all I would definitely come back in the future!

Love Love LOVED THIS SPOT! Cocktails we're unique try their "Sangria Margarita," which is available during their "Happy Hour!" The DUCK!!! WOA' was SPOT ON! The SERVICE SUPERB!!!

Love this place. Great Waite staff and even better food. I have had the Porketta and the salmon As well as many of the appetizers. Both times I have been here it was with big groups and they handled it wonderfully. Highly recommend.
