If you find yourself dreaming of the Texas Hill Country, savory comforts, spice, and the sultry depth of a fine Burgundy, you’ll be pleased to know about Signature at La Cantera Resort & Spa. The menu is straightforward and beguiling, featuring contemporary interpretations of classic dishes — fresher, brighter versions of traditional cuisine enlivened with unconventional Texas spirit.

    Always a consistent high quality experience at Aldo’s. Starting with a warm and friendly greeting, presentation of delicious menu selections, add to that excellent waiters (Mario this time), and always wrap up with spumoni. The perfect evening from the rated best Italian Restaurant in San Antonio.

    Food and wait staff were excellent. The service and food were amazing considering the number of people in this restaurant. It was full to capacity. Our water and tea glasses were refilled frequently. Our food was delivered quickly and hot. The food was very tasty. Nice experience. Kudos to both the wait and kitchen staff. Would definitely go back and recommend.

    Christmas Day dinner was excellent along with the service. Ethan was an outstanding server and made the evening wonderful and a huge breath of fresh air from an already stressful Christmas trip to San Antonio. Food portions are just right. I had one of the best, if not THE best, linguini carbonara plates ever. My stepsons enjoyed their food as well as my wife. The wine selection was perfect as they have a right balance of variety and price points to accommodate those that like moderately priced bottles and some higher priced ones like Silver Oak and Stags Leap. The entire staff was friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend.

    Everything was great. Good service and good ambience. Only problem was the Au Gratin potatoes. Yuch. Manager replaced them with a different potato (mashed) which was great. All in all, so much better than last year when we were forced to wait 30 to 45 minutes in spite of reservation. Of course we will return
