Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Downtown

Love Clementine, the only creative bistro type restaurant in San Antonio. Great service with the entire staff able to answer any question on any dish. Wonderful wine menu at great prices, No gouging on bottles of wine here, much like Europe where wines are reasonable. For whatever reason 90% of US restaurants want 3-4 times retail value on a bottle of wine, Clementine has a great selection at great pricing. We always order the "feed me" pre fixe menu and have never been disappointed. It's a surprise every time and a great adventure in dining.

Was a great vday evening! We both loved the food and attention from the server!

I’m so happy that we chose to do this experience. It is a Dore for Valentine’s Day this year. I have eaten there before and thought it was wonderful, but this experience was over the top and the sommelier was fantastic. So glad we chose to add the wine pairing.

The Valentine's menu was delicious! Service was great, and live music was too.

From entry to exit, Nicosi is nothing short of an experience that will transport you and your taste buds to an entirely different world. The setup and layout of the space set the chefs up for center stage, where you can admire their precise placement and plating of each dish before serving you. The storytelling of each dish and how it plays on your palate is truly art. Chef Tavel and his team made an incredible space to indulge in the culinary curiosities you wouldn’t believe are available in San Antonio. The worst part is when it’s all over. The experience and ambiance are so amazing that you won’t want to leave! 12/10, highly recommend!
