    Came for brunch. Deviled eggs with bacon and caviar were a delight. Extra creamy. Shared the brunch burger and carbonara. Pork belly has a nice Smokey flavor.

    If you’re looking for an unforgettable dining experience in San Antonio, Texas, look no further than Dean’s Steak and Seafood. From the moment I stepped inside, I was blown away by the sheer beauty of this restaurant—elegant yet inviting, it sets the perfect stage for a meal that exceeds all expectations. The brilliance behind this establishment shines through in every detail, thanks to Don, the Food and Beverage Director, who has clearly assembled an exceptional team. Their passion and professionalism elevate the entire experience, making it clear that this isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a destination. My server, Patrick, was nothing short of phenomenal. His attentiveness, knowledge, and genuine warmth made me feel like a VIP from start to finish. He guided me through the menu with expert recommendations, and his service was flawless—truly a standout in an already stellar lineup. And then there’s the food. Oh, the food! Every dish was top-notch, a symphony of flavors that left me speechless. From the perfectly cooked steaks to the exquisite seafood, everything was over-the-top in the best possible way. Dean’s Steak and Seafood isn’t just a meal—it’s an experience that redefines dining in San Antonio. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, this gem is a must-visit. I can’t wait to return and savor it all over again! Let me know if you’d like any tweaks!
