Clementine

This place is AMAZING. Every star well deserved. We took a random jab at the menu and not one item disappointed us. The combinations and the marrying of flavors is genius. My absolute favs were The White Mushroom Salad, Lentils and Cardamom donuts with coffee ice cream and candied kumquats?. (See their menu for PC dish names) Read the menu and dive in. Our waiter Alejandro was the absolute greatest. His recommendations were greatly appreciated. This will definitely be a fav on the map.

“Feed me” was spot on and included some items not on the menu such as amazingly tender, juicy sweetbreads. Also in the meal, we particularly enjoyed the mushroom salad, grilled little gem lettuce salad with poached egg dressing, halibut and the tender, moist cheesecake. Expertly prepared, lovely presentation, service friendly but sometimes a bit over attentive-but not in a bad way. Lovely meal. Go late, it is very loud.

Do not let the location within a strip mall confuse you - this is San Antonio’s hidden gem. Once going and trying their “Feed Me” option we realized we stuck gold. The chef couple team is a power couple. I loved the open kitchen concept, watching the team prep the courses as they came out with genuine passion, love, and excitement for what they are doing. All smiles and laughs. The chefs are right in the mix, bringing harmony, diversity, and influence to the food and team. We loved every. single. plate. Even foods of which I’ve never enjoyed. It’s definitely a “birthday” or “anniversary” type meal event but worth every penny.

Did the Feed Me with wine pairing on Sat night at the counter with a friend. The service was outstanding and the food was fantastic! Our server Jason was top notch, engaging, personable and knew his food & wine. Watching the rest of the staff at the counter was so much fun. It was fun to interact with them as we watched them make wonderful food. A great experience and I highly recommend if you are in San Antonio. Plan ahead and make your reservation. *thank you for the 4 desserts, too much but soooooo good

Had the chance to stop by this amazing restaurant. The staff and the management were absolutely top notch. Friendly, knowledgeable and welcoming. I had some truly good food, in the right portions, and timed perfectly. I also ate outside, on a beautiful evening of October. My only complaint, and I'm truly being picky, is the music on the patio could have been better. But that's not necessarily a problem, as music tastes vary incredibly. Also - they are super flexible with accommodation of dietary restrictions (vegetarian here). They modified each plate to suit my restriction. Last - for what it's worth, one of the best desserts I've had in a long time. All in all i strongly recommend Clementine.

The "Feed Me" option with wine pairings was absolutely fantastic!! This place should have a James Beard award if you ask me. The experience at this place was bar none and very easily comparable with a 1 or 2 M star place. The wait staffs ia awesome Braden was knowledgeable about everything that came our way and he was extremely attentive along with being fun as all heck. The seating in front of the kitchen was fun to sit at while watching kitchen operate in flawless unison. Do not miss this place if you can get to it, I will flying back next week and will be doing everything in my power to get the dinner octopus option.

I don’t know how I’ve never reviewed Clementine, as it’s my favorite restaurant in San Antonio, and one of my favorites in the world. We eat here for every important occasion, we even had our wedding dinner here (a magical night.) I’ve eaten at many Michelin star and James Beard winning restaurants, and Clementine often surpasses the quality of the most acclaimed places I’ve been. It seems so silly, because you’re in a strip mall in San Antonio. But the creativity of Chef John Russ, Chef Elise, and the team is truly next level. The combinations are always innovative and surprising. The menu is always changing, and I’ve never had a single dish that didn’t delight me. I think if Clementine was on a busy street in Austin, New York, or planted in Napa Valley, it would be a household name. But here it is, just for us in San Antonio. What luck! The great food alone would be enough to keep me coming back, but the service is top-notch, the wine list is thoughtful and well-curated, and the atmosphere is unpretentious. The best thing to do is the Feed Me, but I am sure you will be amazed by any dish you select. The various fish dishes have always been my favorite, and the beef is a staple for my kid. I hope that you try it and keep coming back.

We came for a birthday dinner and had an AMAZING time! We did the “Feed Me” option, and the food rivaled Michelin starred dinners we’ve had. Absolutely one of the best dinners I’ve had in town. Braden was our server and was excellent. He was attentive yet gave us space, and was supremely knowledgeable about the food and wine pairings we asked for. All around an amazing staff that created a perfect evening! Thank you for the great memories, we will make it a point to come back soon!

So amazing. We just got married (courthouse wedding, simple) and decided to come here to celebrate. They were amazing and even brought us some rosé and dessert on the house to congratulate us. We ordered the "Feed Us" option and every course was delicious. The fish especially. The green beans were a bit spicy for my taste but the flavor itself was very good and paired well with the next citrus pasta dish. Thank you all so much for the great service! It's very much appreciated and we will definitely be back.
