Grille 254 — Restaurant in San Antonio

It's a cool place for a late afternoon happy hour. It doesn't get too busy but I was out of there before 7pm.

It's a full service restaurant, with a full bar, wine, and about 20 craft beers on tap - most of them brewed in Texas.

There are a couple of non descript buildings here that all look the same. But again, Google Maps got me exactly where I needed to be.

The serving size for the kids was generous the chicken strips were thoughtfully crafted and very juicy. We had the SA Restaurant week special, while either selection is recommended, we especially enjoyed the tomato basil bisque and the pork chop. This pork chop rivaled those of specialty steak houses. The brussel sprouts were...

We went here only because we were late getting to a formal event at the hotel. We realized when we arrived that it's a golf clubhouse, but it's the worst high-end one I've visited - and I played golf for 35 years. Onion rings had a spicy teriyaki-like batter, so they were not the traditional crispy style rings we get in this area. And the onion was raw! The burger meat had a frozen, low quality taste. The brioche bun was about the only thing that was not sub-standard. We were surprised when we arrived that only two tables were occupied in the entire place, then we found out why. And the $4.25 iced...
