The Luxury

I liked this place a lot. It's right next to the riverwalk allowing for people to walk down the promenade after a beer. It's outside and dog friendly and great after a long week of hustling. Employees are nice, patient and friendly too. The food takes forever to receive tho after you order it. That's the only downside. Now maybe that's because the kitchen was short staffed or because when I went it was booming with folks however the staff does give people a heads up on the wait for food so can anybody really be mad??? Lol. Definitely have to check this place out and take friend.

Traveling to San Antonio on business this week and have been hitting up a bunch of taquerias - when in Rome. Saw this place listed nearby and thought would be nice to stop by one night to check out the rusty truck and see what it was all about. Now kicking myself for not coming sooner! First, atmosphere 10/10. Views are superb, cute little swings and benches overlooking the river, open air seating abounds. Unpretentious shipping containers build out the kitchen and bar, bocce court for fun, and dog friendly. Honestly I could have sat there all night and only now realized I was there far past closing time - nobody bothered to tell anyone to leave since we can see ourselves out. Exits to the street and river walk seem to remain open all night. Food - 9/10. I had the double bacon cheeseburger, fries, and a side of queso. Only reason for the 9 is I prefer my bacon a bit crisper (it's thick and high quality though so who really cares), but this is BY FAR the best meal I have had all week. Best burger in a long time - garlic mayo is tops, who knew cheddar could be so soft & melty, and the FRIES omg the fries. I literally had to stop myself or I would have had to request paramedics roll me out of there. Service - 15/10. Super awesome dude in the kitchen with the sweet mustache explained the full menu to me just because I said I'm a newb, and also explained that menu can change daily based on freshly-sourced ingredients. Very nice chick behind the bar helped me choose from a wide selection of brews and made me feel like the only customer there even though people were waiting behind me (they didn't wait long). Honestly I am probably going again tomorrow for dinner because I'm only here one more night. This place is a hidden gem!

A friend and I arrived at the Luxury about 5pm on a Sunday and the place was bustling with activity, corn hole game, swings along the riverwalk, laughter and conversations. We were able to find a table near the river pretty quickly. While we waited our dog (on a leash of course) played with the dogs at the next table. Because it was busy, our food took longer than expected to arrive, a little more than 45 minutes. But the food was amazing!! Such a cool place. I will be back.

One of my favorite off the beaten path restaurants that still features the Riverwalk and parts of historical San Antonio. They have really cool swings that face the river and the food is a great value. Don't get more than one fry for two people!! They always have a cool atmosphere and it's dog friendly. Come here if you want to have a nice lunch or dinner and just chill out with a beer.

When the weather is nice the Luxury has one of the coolest ambiances in all of San Antonio. Located right on the San Antonio Riverwalk, it is less than a mile from the Pearl Brewery and about a mile from the Downtown portion of the Riverwalk. The walk from both directions is absolutely gorgeous, especially between Thanksgiving and New Years when the trees are lit up for the holidays. The Luxury makes for a perfect pit stop whether you’re in the mood for a good beer or a nice glass of wine. The food is beyond your typical bar food, and just like it’s location it’s menu falls somewhere between a brewery and a restaurant. Of course when you sit outside under the stars in one of their wooden swings, you honestly won’t care what your eating and drinking, because the people and place alone will have you coming back for more.

The food was excellent and I adored the outdoor seating. There’s lots to choose from but the swings overlooking the water were very cool. Because it was a rainy day it was empty and we had the place to ourselves minus a stray little kitten that watched us from behind a tree. There’s free parking in the evenings close by on the side streets. The only reason it’s getting 4 stars instead of 5 is because there was only one guy there and he wanted to close early because of the rain so he wasn’t excited to serve us.
