Signature

We booked a reservation here for my birthday and had an excellent experience. Ophelio was our waiter and he was very knowledgeable about the menu and gave wonderful recommendations. We had the pork belly, venison, and prime beef tenderloin and everything was cooked to perfection. We got palate cleansers between each entree then followed up with a delicious dessert. The restaurant’s atmosphere was also cozy and rustic with chandeliers. We were seated overlooking the kitchen watching the chefs work their magic. I can’t wait to visit here again to try more things on the menu. We truly felt wine and dined!

Wow! Where do I start? I came here to celebrate my birthday with very high hopes. I’ve been wanting to try Signature for a while. Our waitress Grace, was one of the best, most attentive, nice, personable waitresses I’ve ever come across. She was so informative and helpful with the menu and our wine selections- the wine list is top notch, we enjoyed every glass we tried. The Chef out did himself with the food, everything from start to finish was delicious. My scallops were like butter, amazing texture.. and the flavor of that coconut curry is to die for. I can’t wait to come back here again, I had a lovely evening.

Signature is hands down the best restaurant my wife and I have eaten at in San Antonio! From start to finish, the experience was absolutely flawless. We had the six-course tasting menu, and every dish was a masterpiece—both in flavor and presentation. The portions were incredibly generous, making it feel like a true feast rather than just a tasting. What truly elevated the night was our server, Jose. His knowledge, attentiveness, and warm hospitality made us feel completely taken care of. He guided us through each course with enthusiasm and perfect pacing, ensuring we savored every bite. The ambiance was elegant yet inviting, making it the perfect setting for a special evening. If you’re looking for an unforgettable dining experience in San Antonio, Signature is it. We can’t wait to return!

We celebrated my husband’s birthday at Signature and had an unforgettable experience! We chose the 6-course tasting menu, and every dish was absolutely delicious. The portions were much more generous than we expected, making it feel like more than just a tasting menu. Our server, Jose, was incredibly respectful, kind, and helpful throughout the evening. He truly made our experience special and was the sweetest! Plus, my husband was surprised with a complimentary dessert and a special birthday treat, which was such a thoughtful touch. I have to say, Signature served the best food I’ve ever had in my life! The atmosphere and decor were stunning, creating a perfect ambiance for our celebration. I really hope we get to visit again before we move away from Texas, and next time, I’d love to sit closer to the kitchen to watch the magic happen! Highly recommend Signature for any special occasion! 🫶🏽👍🏽

We went here for my husband’s birthday, and we had a lot of fun. There are parking spots by the building, and they have a valet service. We reserved for Chef’s tasting menu, and when we sat down to our table, we asked to have wine pairings with it. The food was fantastic, and the wine pairings were so delicious! Everyone was nice and courteous. Really great overall!

y husband and I went to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. Signature went above and beyond for us. It started while we were waiting to be seated and continued through the entire meal. Everyone that we had contact with was knowledgeable and friendly and made the whole experience worth it. As parents of a 6 year old, we do not get to do this kind of thing often and I was not at all disappointed. The food was fantastic. My husband had the wagyu steak and I had the short rib. The appetizers were just as good. I wish I could remember my server's name because he really was excellent. His suggestions were on point and he could answer every question we had. I can't say enough good things about Signature.

One of the best culinary experiences I’ve had in a long time. Everything was exquisitely prepared using the best and freshest ingredients. So many flavors in each bite!

Wonderful. Delicious food and beautiful atmosphere. Had no reservations and got there around 9:15 and the host and manager were super nice about it. Our server was also very friendly and knowledgeable, same with the young man that delivers and explained the food to the table. If you’re looking for a place to celebrate your birthday or to make it special, here it is.

We visited Signature Restaurant for dinner and had a wonderful experience from beginning to end! Tip: While the prices are not cheap, the quality of the food and service here is worth every penny The food was outstanding, and the service was first rate. We got a wine pairing with our dinner, and the wines they chose for us were both delicious, and complimented the food perfectly :-) The ambiance here is dim and romantic; it makes for an excellent date-night venue. I think I can honestly say that this was one of the best restaurant experiences we've had in recent memory - highly recommended!

Marjan and I visited 3 years ago, on her birthday, then a couple of weeks later on my birthday. Our first visit was special, the ambience, the service, the food, just exceptional. (Please read our review from that visit in 2022.) HOWEVER, our second visit was, how shall I describe....oh, yes...horrendous. The food was exceptional as one would expect, but we had better service at a biker bar. Excellent service is the bedrock complement to excellent cuisine expected of this level of restaurant, so a major, criminal failing this last visit. Ergo, our absence for 3 years counting. Nonetheless, we were hosting dinner for two dear family members, and they had never visited Signature. So, with some trepidation, we reserved. Making good use of the valet service on this frigid night, we were immediately greeted by the hostess and shown to our table....in the smaller dining area off the main room. Friends, the smaller room is, well a smaller room. The best experience for the ambience is in the main area, so, word to the wise: reserve your table for the main dining room!! Let me repeat: specifically reserve a table in the main dining area!! But, that irritation aside, the excellence of service that we experienced during our first visit was indeed revisited. Albany our waitress promptly filled our aperitif requests, and while the mixologist prepared, another member of the staff filled our glasses with H20, and offered slices of fruit or cucumber to freshen our drink. Very nice touch! Our foursome preferred the dirty vodka martini, and should you so prefer, the beverage was spot on! Definitely recommend! Bread service was provided with chef's butter, a pleasing whet for the appetite. But another added pleasure: the bouche amuse offered as a tantalizer by the chef. Pleasing and smoothing, and preparatory for the dishes to come. Our table was torn over the appetizers, but we shared the risotto, and all agreed, was a winner! Albany was exceptionally knowledgeable of the nuances of the menu items, answering our queries of preparation, sauces and sides, helping our choices for entree. But up next, sherbert as palate cleanser. Again, nice touch. We chose four different menu items, wanting to plumb the depths of the chef's culinary talents. We enjoyed the redfish, the halibut, the tenderloin and the venison. The sauces that dressed the dishes were exceptional. The finned creatures cooked as wanted, avoiding the dread overcook. The tenderloin was asked medium, the venison medium rare: both presented to our table as desired. Tender, melt in the mouth quality. Sauces can add exceptional flavor to an entree, and friends, the chef's talents were on full display. Delicious! Marjan selected a Pelligrini pinot noir from their list (full-bodied, berry taste and hints of vanilla) and we left not a drop in the bottle after all was said and done! So, friends, we gambled on this reservation, given the very degoutant service we experienced during our last visit. But this visit, the service from all members of the staff were as one would expect from this tier of dining experience. BUT, a word again to the wise: be certain to request table in the main dining room!! Marjan rates this restaurant 5 origami boots!! Enjoy yelpers!!

Always a pleasure to dine here! The service is consistently great. Starting with the wonderful hostess, to the waiters, and everyone we interacted with. The food was a set menu for nye. The risotto was a bit salty for my palate, but all the other dishes were great. I look forward to dine here again!

The experience at Chef Carpenter's Signature restaurant had a great start, but definitely lost steam towards the end. Driving up the road to the restaurant, there is a choice of parking spots around the front of the restaurant. I suppose they also have valet. You'll enter a vintage space. A nice floral display was present, and we checked in, letting them know we had a reservation for the tasting menu. A couple of couches and the bar area are not far from the entrance. The upstairs area is open and accessible, check it out if you get a chance. We were seated at a large circular table. Water was poured, and a team member came by to infuse based on choices from a platter: a choice of cucumber, lemon, mint, and orange. We opted for cucumber, lemon, and mint. We were presented with all the menus they had. We confirmed we were going for the tasting menu sans the wine pairing, but decided to grab non-alcoholic and alcoholic cocktails: Sunset in the Tropics, and Signature Smash. Sunset was very much passion fruit based. The Smash had more interesting and refreshing flavors. The peach essence was actually quite light; the other components melded together seamlessly. 1. The Amuse Bouche was some kind of acorn-squash-pumpkin chowder one-biter. Creamy and yummy, but not too memorable. It came with a piece of bread, and that bread came with onion ash butter shaped like the layers of an onion. The butter had a great oniony, almost black peppery flavor. 2. The Tuna: blood orange, sweet potato, charred corn, passion fruit. Refreshing, sour, and spicy. Sourness from the passion fruit was prominent. They told me the orange dollops were sweet potato, but I couldn't really tell. Flavor was pretty much like Sunset in the Tropics, but with some capsaicin. 3. Scallop & Ostera Caviar: celery root, garlic chips, yuzu beurre blanc. Scallop was a scallop, though one of the scallops was fishy. The sauce had a great flavor. Slightly tart, buttery, and savory. 4. Pork Belly: poblano creamed corn, picked peppers, black garlic molasses. Arguably the star of the night. Great textures, a crisp meat portion, with melt in your mouth fat that is slightly sweet; undertone of the poblano creamed corn. 5. Intermezzo: something passion fruit sorbet--they used quite a bit of passion fruit in the menu 6. Prime Tenderloin: potato fondant, onion soubise, maitake mushroom, truffle red wine jus. Sorry to say, this one was the letdown of the night. Unseasoned steak, and the potatoes just tasted like potatoes boiled in water. No, the sauce did not help overcome the blandness. These were very disappointing bites. 7. Banana Roulade: coffee chocolate cake, banana pastry cream, caramel, vanilla wafer ice cream. A decent dessert. The sugared banana chip was neat. 8. Petite Fours: interestingly, this came as a single serving, rather than in pairs. I mean, they were all pretty sweet. I didn't have a favorite among them. It was a lackluster ending. Conclusion: strong start, lackluster finish to the tasting menu (including service attitudes). Decor and interior design are great. Clean bathrooms. Open kitchen, with hanging pots and pans. Weird stuff going on with the lighting though: dimming and brightening throughout the night. The staff work pretty efficiently. Sorta neat upstairs area.

A Romantic Proposal at Signature~ I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to the staff at Signature--Albany, Alyssa, and Riki--for helping my boyfriend pull off a magical proposal on our anniversary last week. The restaurant, beautifully situated near the shops at La Cantera, set the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable evening. My boyfriend knew I hadn't dined at Signature yet and promised I'd love the surprise. After a few impromptu photos, we entered the restaurant, captivated by its stunning design, from the dynamic doors to the rustic open kitchen. The staff radiated joy--little did I know they were all part of the plan! Our waitress seated us at a lovely table near an impressive glass door. He encouraged me to order anything I wanted, and we chose a sweet bottle of Moscato along with PEI mussels, oysters, and risotto, which left me delightfully stuffed. As we enjoyed our meal, Albany and Alyssa kept our glasses full and treated us to a delectable amuse bouche of curry soup. For our main courses, we shared scallops and short ribs, savoring every bite. Unbeknownst to me, my boyfriend had coordinated with the team to capture the moment. Alyssa took me outside under the guise of photographing my dress. As she found the perfect spot and complimented me, she asked me to turn around--and there he was, on one knee, proposing in the beautiful garden with the sun shining down. In complete shock, I joyfully said YES to the love of my life. Riki captured the moment from another angle, ensuring we had memories to cherish. The ladies at the front were ecstatic to see my surprise, realizing that our anniversary dinner had transformed into a proposal. To celebrate, we enjoyed complimentary wine and dessert, savoring every moment before taking home what we couldn't finish. This enchanting night wouldn't have been possible without the incredible team at Signature. I'm especially excited to hear they may be opening a wedding venue soon! Thank you to everyone who made this proposal a moment to remember!

Pretty damned good overall. The sauce on the pork rib was awesome, and even though I'm not usually a fan of greens, they were excellent. The potatoes with the prime rib, however, were a bit too salty for my taste. The asparagus was just okay--not out of this world. The service was very awesome, and it was cool being able to see them work in the kitchen. The atmosphere is great, making it perfect for special occasions. Dessert was a mixed bag. The Tiramisu was not impressive at all, but they brought out some little desserts at the end, which was a nice touch. They also sent us home with an awesome piece of chocolate cake with raspberries inside and a fancy gold flake on top. That was much better than the Tiramisu. (we paid for the Tiramisu, but the extra little desserts at the end seemed to be part of the experience - the chocolate cake with raspberries seemed to be part of the birthday dessert with no additional charge). We left with many sweets, so I'm really not sure what we paid for. Overall, a great place with some standout dishes and excellent service.

This restaurant needs to get a Michelin Star! From the second you enter the restaurant till the second you leave the service is one of the best I have received and not to mention the food and the drinks. The food was made fresh and the quality of food you get is top notch. The Spanish Octopus was my favorite appetizer. I have not had anything like it before . If you have a special occasion coming up or just looking for a fancy night out I recommend this place

I rarely give five stars, let me say that going in the door. I completely agree with another yelper who recently reviewed Signature, though - it's definitely a hidden gem. Signature had been on my wife's radar for a long time, and we finally had the perfect reason for going: our anniversary. We arrived and we seated promptly for our reservation time. The ambiance is perfect for a romantic evening. They knew it was our anniversary as I'd marked it making the reservation. However, neither my wife or I drink alcohol and the first thing they did - without even asking - was bring two glasses of champagne to the table. Very sweet gesture, and I told them so, but I also felt it presumptuous. When we sent it back, they brought us something else, which was very nice. So, in general, one of my biggest reservations (no pun intended) going to a high dollar restaurant like this - is portion size. It seems you pay for a high dollar meal only to get a dish the size of an appetizer - therefore leaving hungry. I'm glad to report that Signature is NOT LIKE THAT. My wife had the prime rib, and I opted for the wagyu. Both portions left us so full we barely had room for our anniversay dessert. We had good time here; I'd definitely be back, and I would definitely recommend it for a very nice date night location. Drawbacks: even though the portion size was larger than expected, I'm still not - just generally - sold on paying this much for a meal. Second, we unfortunately had a table of obnoxiously loud drunk men making conversation between my wife and I difficult....definitely ruined the vibe toward the end.

This place is definitely is definitely a hidden gem and I'm so lucky that I came across it. It is honestly hands-down, the best restaurant in all of San Antonio. I must begin by saying that the ambience of the place just takes you away. It is so elegant and refined but at the same time it almost feels as though you've walked in on a mystery of a restaurant. The drinks were more than just amazing. They gave you a sense of classic but original unique flavor that you can only get in one place and that is at signature restaurant. The customer service is almost unbelievable. How much they go out of their way to please you take care of you not to mention to make you feel like you're the only customer and then the most important customer at that. Now, the food well the food I must say it gives you a sense of sensational pleasure that leaves you in a utter state of happiness. You get a feeling on your taste buds that just pop with flavor and just absolutely make you wonder why you were missing this meal your whole life.

For our anniversary, my hunnie surprised me with the Signature Restaurant. From the grand entrance, LIVE music and culinary escape. It was an unforgettable dining experience. Its location is nestled in an exclusive atmosphere and the ambiance is perfect for dressing up and savoring each moment. If you aren't familiar with the variety of utensils to use during proper dining then please do yourself a favor and ask your waiter to advise you throughout the evening, requesting guidance on which utensils to use and when, rather than a crash course at the beginning. This personalized approach helped us enjoy the entire experience. We took our time with to truly enjoy the art behind every bite. The highlight, for this plantita lady, was the restaurant's stunning garden area, where the fresh vegetables were harvested for that evening's menu. We were told that their menu is seasonal. Overall it was a captivating experience!

Excellent high end restaurant by La Cantera. The dining experience is very dimly lit so my photos did not turn out but the food is very good very good and I would highly recommend if you're looking for a very nice evening out to try this place. Be prepared to spend a good chunk of money though. Service was top notch and we loved the little extras that they include with your meal.

Absolutely amazing experience! I don't dine this fancy that often, so this was a birthday dinner. Very kind server. They gave me a birthday sweet to take home. The cocktails were superb and wine service was excellent:) when I have another special event I will definitely plan to come here

We enjoyed a night at Signature: passion fruit mocktail, zucchini appetizer, axis venison, and wagyu beef. So many details, like the amuse bouche and the palate cleanser, that make the experience feel special. The restaurant is perched on a hill near La Cantera resort and feels like an escape from the city.

Our reservation was at 8:30 pm, and upon arrival, we noticed that seven four-top tables in the main dining area were unoccupied. Despite this, my wife and I were seated in an overflow area. We politely asked the server if we could be moved to the main hall, especially since the restaurant had been recommended by La Cantera, the hotel on the property. Unfortunately, the server's response was far from accommodating. She dismissed our request and said she needed to check with her manager. A few minutes later, she returned with the usual, "I'm sorry, we're fully committed for tonight." Now, I understand that situations like this can happen, but it did feel odd that the other guests seated in the overflow area were also minorities--four young women and another couple. I'd like to think it was just a coincidence, but the situation left us feeling uneasy. Ultimately, we decided to leave and went to J-Prime Steakhouse instead, where we had a fantastic experience. To top it off, as we were walking out, the server suddenly informed us that a table in the main hall had just opened up due to a cancellation. By then, it was too late for us. While we waited for our Uber--which took 17 minutes--no one else arrived at the restaurant. La Cantera and this restaurant (Signature) seem to share one unfortunate trait: poor service and poor management.

I experienced many firsts on the evening I dined at The Signature Restaurant, all wonderful, I should note! My best friend and I were staying at the La Cantera Resort for a girls spa weekend. We wanted to end our trip in a big way with a wonderful girls night dinner. We were thoroughly pleased with our choice to dine at The Signature. We opted for the John Carpenter's tasting menu and added the wine pairing. The service was exceptional! Our server was very poised and professional throughout our entire experience. The introduction of each dish was seamless. About halfway through our experience the sommelier came to our table to introduce himself and ask what we thought of our pairings this far. We shared our thoughts and favorites. I can't imagine the experience without the wine pairings. Each option truly elevated the flavors of each dish. This was the first time trying foie gras, caviar and paid each dish with a wine pairing. I am glad I decided to venture into this realm at the Signature. When dinner was complete, the server offered to call a shuttle to our villa. The attention that was paid to us siding this experience was extraordinary. There is a well ran establishment and it shows at all aspects of one's experience upon booking a reservation.

The food was delicious and you could taste the quality of the cuts and fresh ingredients. Cocktails were fantastic too. One person in our party ordered the venison and wanted more gaminess to the taste. Service was outstanding! We had a server named Jose and he was outstanding! The restaurant ambiance is beautiful. The table we were assigned gave me the vibe of being in a home with a cozy fireplace, chandeliers and comfortable dining chairs. Patrick the manager was great at accommodating our party of 10.

Truly Exceptional Experience!! One of a kind!! World Class Service from the moment we approach the door when someone opens it for you to the very end when the waitress asked us if she should call our shuttle in advance to be ready to pick us up. VIP service ALL the Way!!! We loved our 1st visit so much we came back the following night! And they delivered the same CONSISTENT EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE once again!! Every detail that amazed us the 1st time was there again like clockwork. This includes the amazing service by our waitress and her team of other servers who bring a plate of citrus options for your drink, to the very fresh hot bread made just for us, to keeping our drinks topped off, and even bringing us a sample of small dessert treats when it's time to pay for our meal...simply amazing!! Food items we HIGHLY recommend: Appetizer: PORK BELLY (Wow!!) Salad: Caesar (tasty) Meals: Chilean Sea Bass (Amazing!!) Australian Wagyu Coulotte (So tender!!) Grilled Scallops (Fresh & Ultra Delicious)

I have only heard great things about this restaurant - it is on my list of favorites to visit.

This place is amazing! I'd drive over an hour for it. Thank you Lord I'm only 17 minutes away! This will be our new regular place in San Antonio. If you like Bliss, this places smashes it. The service was impeccable. Such lovely people. Food was amazing. I tried several things and each made me want to slap some for how good it was. And the atmosphere couldn't be any better. I would recommend making reservations placing you there while it's still light out and taking you into the evening. That way you can experience the place in the light and the evening. It's so pretty We'll be back many times.

FOOD: Came here twice and I'm so glad I got to try the dishes I didn't get a chance to try the first time. Thoroughly enjoyed the vibe here. The appetizers are appealing and the main entrees are cooked to perfection. My favorite is the Iberico Pork because it was soooo tender and flavor was well balanced. The Chilean Sea Bass is another wonderful entree. The desserts were also scrumptious, you can't go wrong with any of them. Definitely coming back for more! SERVICE: All of the staff here are attentive from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave. Water level never drops below the halfway point. The servers are prompt to correct errors and accommodating with dietary restrictions. And ladies, if you bring a fancy bag, for your bag will have it's own stool by you (: AMBIANCE: Ideal for celebrations, date nights, get togethers. Interior decor with the hanging pots and pans were beautiful and the venue was nicely illuminated for the evening. Large floor-to-ceiling windows perfect for observing the sunset over the golf course. Indoor and outdoor seating available (bring mosquito spray if you venture outside). There's also a section upstairs where you can admire beautiful pieces of artwork that are thoughtfully placed.

We started out with oysters as an appetizer, and our main meals were the Wagyu and the venison plate. Our after meal drink was a rum coffee. Our waiter was absolutely amazing!!! every person that came to our table was so professional, polite, and especially attentive. The answered all of our questions. The restaurant was quiet enough so we could have a conversation.

5 star ambience - Love this place! Very open, decorative, and inviting. 5 star drinks - LOVE the use of classic books for their names! Even better, they are equally as delicious to consume. 4 star food - Some of the best risotto I have ever had. I should have just had this. We ordered the scallops and Axis venison. Although my partner enjoyed both, I was not a fan of the flavors mixed with either. I realized I prefer my scallops seared and plain. I did not care for the venison's cherry jus. Regardless, you can tell that the food is quality, and the menu changes, so I would definitely try them again. 3.5 star service - Sat at bar while we waited for our guests to arrive. Two women, one in late 20's, the other older, were the bartenders. Both were nice, but not 5-star level. Our waiter was okay, not unfriendly, but not friendly either. The bartenders a 4. The waiter a 3. I will definitely be back if only for the ambience and drinks.

Upon arrival we were greeted and escorted to our table. The ladies weee provided a stool next to their chairs to accommodate purses. We ordered drinks and discussed the nights menu. The chef accommodated a couple of sauce changes on the fresh fish. We ordered, fresh hot out of the oven bread arrives, a special small bite of grilled cheese but and small drink of tomato bisque was a pleasant surprise. Salads arrived and were fresh and tasty. The red fish was fresh and delightful, sort ribs had a nice bark and pulled apart with fork, the beef sion was tasty and well prepared.. Everything was performed with a specific attention to detail and a smile. We throughly enjoyed and will return for another wonderful evening.

This place is outstanding. From the service to the excellent food. My husband and I have added this to our rotation in date night options and have gotten to know a few of the staff, the GM being one. He's so friendly and so hospitable! This place definitely goes the extra mile and you can tell in their flavors.

I dare to state that this is the best restaurant in Texas. I've labeled this dinner as the best dinner I've ever had in my entire 57 years! We have been going here every month for the past 8 months. But dinner was exquisite this evening! We started with delicious "Dirty Martini's at the bar. the atmosphere was soft and romantic. The bar tenders blended the perfect cocktails. We moved to our table an switched over to a new server "Jacob" who was very informative, friendly and attentive. We tasted a New Zealand white wine and French wine and went with the French white wine "Domaine Pelle". Our dinner consisted of: 1. Golden Beets: goat cheese, pepitas, citrus, passion fruit vinaigrette 2. Summer Truffle Risotto leeks, parmesan, Sea bass and Mango 3. Chilean Sea Bass celeriac, zucchini, dill, yuzu beurre blanc 4.Tres Leches coconut, mango, bunuelo 5. Espresso chaser Could not have had a better dinner. This meal surpassed my favorite meal I had back in 1993 in France.

Amazing food, service, and establishment. Very unique and put together interior design and a fresh concept where you don't even feel like you're in Texas anymore. The food was phenomenal and the venison was the best part!! Amazing selection of menu options and desserts. I would highly recommend this to everyone visiting San Antonio.

Great happy hour, fantastic food (highly recommend the short rib), and beautiful decor. A hidden gem for sure. Will be back.

Walking into Signature right on time, I was immediately greeted by name (how do they know?). We were introduced to John, our seasoned server with 15 years of experience with the best in the industry. The evening was all about creating a memorable experience for both myself and my young dining companion, who is now even more driven to explore elevated dining. We handed the reins to John, trusting him to guide us through the night. As we settled into our seats, custom drinks from the bar and fresh bread with crafted flavored butter quickly appeared on the table. I won't attempt to describe every dish we savored, but I will say this: having traveled the world and dined in 21 countries, from street food to Michelin-level restaurants--I look forward to the day when I can proudly say, "I knew they would make it!" Among the many incredible dishes, the Axis Venison, Spanish octopus, and truffle risotto were absolute standouts. The risotto was a masterpiece--perfectly creamy, with each grain cooked to an ideal tenderness, infused with the rich earthiness of truffle. A palate cleanser arrived mid-meal, a thoughtful touch that exemplified the attention to detail throughout the evening. The communication between everyone who touched our table, from the front of the house to the culinary team in the back, was unmatched in San Antonio. Chef John Carpenter keeps the guest experience fresh and focused. From the open kitchen, I could see his respect for his craft and his team, which was clearly mutual and extended to the guests as well. The food and atmosphere are a harmonious blend of Texas and French cuisine, with a smart casual dress code and a welcoming vibe. I have full respect for the magic they perform at Signature. As a fat man who spends plenty of time in the kitchen and has eaten around the world, I can say with confidence that Signature is a destination for consistency and quality. It's not for everyone--but it was definitely for us. WE will be back... after I sell some Texas-French butter-infused plasma at the blood bank. Treat yourself (~$100 per person) and tell them "Bob sent you" -- will be fun if anything else. Bob

Great restaurant to come on a date night. I came to signature to celebrate an event with my fiancé and was impressed by the location (amazing views of the la cantera resort) and service. The restaurant has nice little details that elevate your experience including fruit to infuse your water, great freshly baked bread, and an amuse bouche before your meal. I ordered the scallop with curry and they were perfectly cooked and delicious. As a dessert we ordered their tres leches and as someone who lives in San Antonio this was the only miss for me as it was not as good or what I was expecting to have. The waitress was fantastic and the entire atmosphere here was great as well.

Always the best brunch. Jose was awesome! The pancakes and burger are a must and if you want more get a biscuit and the views are spectacular! We even walked outside and they came outside to top off our drinks and keep our orders coming! Could not ask for a better ambience and view!

Loved the appetizers we had. We got the quail, pork belly, and tuna crudo. The axis and gnocchi were amazing! The others in our group loved the short ribs, prime beef tenderloin, and sea bass. The ones who got the scallops said they were bland. The tres leches was good and the chocolate anarchy was my favorite. We weren't fans of the gateau basque. Drinks were nicely crafted. Our server did a great job! It was definitely an experience. We went for Christmas dinner and had heard it was beautiful at this time of year. All they had was a tree. We expect lights and more decorations.

Everything was simply amazing. The food, service and atmosphere made it a perfect dining experience. The manager got us a table on our anniversary. My husband had the wagyu New York strip and pork belly and it was amazing.. While I had the fried oysters and gnocchi with sun dried tomatoes and it was also delicious. If you want the perfect dining experience... go to signature

Signature Restaurant is a beautifully designed space inside La Cantera Resort, in San Antonio, TX. We stopped by late in the evening for a birthday celebration. We didn't make reservations. We ordered Seared Maine Scallops, Octopus, Risotto, Short Ribs, Classic Ceasar, King Salmon Crudo. Food was good but not amazing, maybe it had something to do with the time we stopped by. Food was beautifully plated however. Atmosphere and interior design is beautiful and relaxing. Service is professional. It's a good way to end the night. Very relaxing vibe. Tips: Signature is part of a resort. (La Cantera) There's self parking and valet available. Grounds are beautiful, so are the views, you can always come earlier to enjoy.

Me and my fiancé went to celebrate our anniversary and it was phenomenal the server was so knowledgeable and kind through the whole experience. The food was amazing it tasted so good and definitely an experience I will remember. The ambience was very professional and cozy and relaxing.

The quality of food was amazing and so fresh. I love farm to table. The service was solid and the experience was special. Definitely a place I would return to.

Great experience. Beautiful, atmospheric and wonderful service and food. Just wanted to step out and have something decadent for the evening and Signature did not disappoint. Seated quickly and lovely fruit and mint infused water on our table promptly. Had several dishes off of the seasonally changing menu including Salmon Crudo, Roasted Carrots, Season Salad and Oysters w/Cavier. All of them were phenomenal. Oysters had the perfect light coating on them and fried to perfection. The Salmon had pieces of citrus and a fantastic sauce. And the carrot were rich with blue cheese - just Wow. And their salad with picked fennel, candied pecans and light vinaigrette was a perfect addition. Finished it off with their Lemon Mystery dessert and oh so wonderful! Once again, a fantastic affair of the taste buds. Will be returning for another installment.

My all time favorite restaurant so not sure why this is the first time posting about Signature. The ambience is Texas country chic with a french kitchen. Huge cast iron chandeliers and a huge fireplace set the mood for Dining in a fancy hunting lodge. The service is absolutely impeccable. We were greeted with an extensive list of wines and creative cocktails. Definitely get the blackberry gin cocktail with Chambray. We started our dinner with mussels steamed with coconut milk. it was mildly spicy and fresh. We also ordered the Foigras dressed in cherry juice and cooked to perfection. The seasonal zucchini flowers fried with tempura and grilled zucchini underneath was fresh and perfect. I had the octopus as an entrée and the size was generous and the remesco sauce was absolutely delicious. We proceeded to have the steak tenderloin, which was cooked perfectly medium rare plus. We were too full to have dessert, but they brought out complementary Petit fours so how could you say no. My macchiato coffee was the perfect finish. Yes. It was 3 hours well spent at the bar since they were too full in the dining room.

I've eaten Elk three times in my life: Pepi Stiegler's in Jackson Hole, Wyoming The Saddle Peak Lodge in Malibu, Ca Signature's in San Antonio, Texas (last night). I had forgotten just how wonderful this meat tastes. Lean, robust, tender it maybe my favorite red meat. All three of these restaurants above treated this strapping protein in the best of ways. Having Stiegler's and Saddle Peaks elk (so) many years ago, I'm going to have to give Signature's elk the first place award. But, don't think for a second this Signature's Five Star review is just about elk; oh, nay nay! Signature's restaurant hit our dinner on ALL cylinders. First and foremost, the staff working here are extraordinary. They see to every little nuisance that make their patrons dinner special. Their wine list (and sommelier) are A-One. We all ordered Signature's caesar salads that was one of the better ones I've ever had. We all shared their Beef Tartare with parmesan aioli, quail egg, baguette and it was magnificent. One of my cousins had the Chilean Seabass with celeriac, zucchini, dill, yuzu beurre blanc and she loved it. And my other cousin had the Herb Gnocchi with corn, tomato, pistachio and also loved it. Then there was my lovely elk dinner and you know how I felt about that. This lovely restaurant situated a top a hill looking down to a untarnished view of this rapidly growing city was a big plus. So my take away from this really great restaurant is how much San Antonio has become a "Real Deal" city, that now has its sophisticated side that was lacking when I came here a lot in the 1990's!

It is probably one of the best meals I've ever had and I am not an easy person that is impressed by food. We started with the foi gras and the octopus. They were both excellent. We then finished with the short ribs and the sea bass. Both excellent again. Our server, Albany, was attentive and extremely knowledgeable of the menu with excellent recommendations. The restaurant is nicely decorated with an open kitchen concept. We are coming back!

I'm a born-and-raised San Antonio foodie, and I have to say this is the BEST culinary and dining experience I've had in our city, ever. The food is unmatched in quality, flavor, creativity, and aesthetic appeal. Absolutely gorgeous and out-of-this-world selections on the dinner menu. The service (thank you, Albanny!) is also 5-star. My recent birthday dinner here made me feel like the luckiest lady in the world. My husband and I will absolutely be back! I HIGHLY recommend for any special occasion, date night, or just a solo dinner for anyone looking for a superb meal.

We celebrated my wife's birthday here on a Wednesday. We had reservations and were sat right away. The restaurant is small and very busy. Our table was right next to the open kitchen, which provided a great show the whole night. Our server was an absolute rockstar. We started with an amuse-bouche. I'm not sure what it was, but it was a delicious bite. We had the saffron risotto followed by sorbet pallet cleanser, which I think was strawberry. My wife had the salmon with asparagus and I got the venison with baby carrots and potato pave. For dessert, we got the boba nectarine and a pastry tasting. Everything was perfect. Perfectly cooked and seasoned, perfectly timed, perfect portion size and temperature. We were staying at La Cantera Resort & Spa and took the shuttle. I think there is a parking lot, but am not sure the size.

A few weeks ago my husband and I celebrated our 24th wedding anniversary at Signature. This place has everything you want in fine dining...with a bit of a casual flair. First, just the location and views through the big glass windows. The service was spot on but the food was amazing. We arrived a bit early to enjoy a cocktail out on the patio overlooking the driving range. I had a Smoked Old Fashion and my husband had the "Nothin But A Good Time. When we were seated they brought out waters and a tray of fruit & cucumbers that we could select to be added to our water. We started with appetizers: He had the Spanish Octopus and I ordered the Rabbit Avon au Vent ....wow that in itself was a meal.....i wasn't sure what to expect with the Rabbit but it was amazing inside a pastry. We skipped on salads and ordered our entrees: He had the Iberico Pork, I had the amazing Gulf Redfish! Our dishes were paired with a lovely white Sauvignon Blanc. We shared a desert which was a peach cobbler. In between all of this we had hot fluffy rolls accompanied with a nice soft spread and a sorbet to cleanse our pallet before moving on to the nexts course. We look forward to having Sunday brunch.

Arguably the best in SA! Ok, there are about 5 restaurants I can think of that spur that kind of response from me. Signature is THAT good. We've now been twice and came away impressed both times. From the New Fashioned (an Old Fashioned the way I like to make them) to the Bone Marrow app to the main entrees and desserts. Everything is top notch - especially the service! Pics are from both visits in 2020 and 2021.

We celebrated my birthday here. The ambience was dim and romantic. The service felt professional, friendly, and attentive. We ordered the Chef's Tasting. The food and its presentation were equally wonderful. They have an excellent wine list and a sommelier to assist if needed.

Amazing!! 5 star. Higher end but food is fantastic & service (John W.) Was outstanding!!!

Fantastic experience. From the impeccable service to the choice of which citrus did I want for my water, we were blown away by this open kitchen dinner. My wife loved the sea bass and I had the pork belly dinner (but I saw someone else's short ribs).

Risotto was $36 as an appetizer. Not to good. Way too salty. Add scallop for $16 no thank you. Maybe my last Time here. Prices are way too high for the quality and service.

Yes. Absolutely perfect, two visits in one week. Caviar service, truffle risotto, palate cleansers in between courses, onion ash butter for the delicious bread, axis, quail, filet, dessert, drinks, birthday treat, service all incredible. Our server was so wonderful and knowledgeable, we wondered if he owned the place. You can really sense the Signature team cares for its guests and the success of each experience. Can't wait to go back!

As always Signature does not disappoint . If you want good food executed with perfection then this restaurant tops the list . If you want consistency and good service , this place is the place to be . No shortcuts were done both in food preparation and service . I came here for my birthday around the end of September and the second time in the first week of November . The rabbit vol au vent is indeed so flavorful . The Texas Gulf Redfish never disappoints and the Oishi shrimp was heavenly . The chocolate Royal is a masterpiece. I cannot stop raving how flawless they deliver both service and good food in this restaurant and I will always recommend this restaurant if you want to experience elevated dining .
