The atmosphere is relaxing and romantic. I enjoyed slowing down from our fast paced word. The food adds to the pampering with delicious flavor. And, I can not say enough for the wait staff. Alan, was our waiter. He went out of his way to make sure everything we needed was taken care of. I think The Vineyards is a place everyone should experience!
Pros: The food is fantastic

This hotel is a great hotel to get the flavor of San Antonio. The service is great and is located in downtown. The prices are steep during certain times such as Spurs games but otherwise they are priced the same as other luxury hotels. I like the hotel for the environment and the feel of downtown.

I've been to several hair salons in San Antonio, mainly different Aveda salons. I've just had "ok" experiences. The problem with "ok" is when you?re paying a lot to have your hair done; you want to walk out of a salon feeling fresh and beautiful. That is not too much to ask for. My husband started going to SLS and used Gavin. He thought he did an incredible job. He's recommended me going to Gavin for a while now. I've never had a male do highlights or haircutting before and what does my husband really know about hair anyway? So I never took his recommendation. BIG MISTAKE. I finally got fed up with the high price of "ok" haircuts and highlights that I decided to give Gavin a chance. He is so attentive to his craft. He began by taking five minutes to just look at my hair to figure out the layering and texture so that he could assess what would be the best approach. I also showed him pictures of what I like and don't like. He confidently knew exactly what to do with my hair. There were moments I felt like he was Mr. Miyagi and I was his bonsai tree. His highlights were brilliant and his haircut was amazing. All I can say is I walked out feeling hip, fresh, and beautiful. Some people say SLS is on the expensive side. It was less expensive than any Aveda salon I had been to in San Antonio and how can anyone put a price on perfection?

Rosario's is a great Mexican restaurant! The atmosphere is festive and colorful, and the food is always excellent. They have GREAT margaritas and I love the smoky flavor of their salsa. I would definitely recommend this place - a San Antonio classic!
Pros: Best Salsa in town!

I've been stationed in San Antone several times and have never found a better BBQ place both flavor and value-wise than Bill Miller. It's a standard issue, cafeteria-style BBQ spot all over the local region and their BBQ is very tasty and tender and'll never let you down. A few things that distinguish them from the rest of the pack includes their outstanding hash brown potatoes, green beans in a savory sauce, Texas-sized iced tea and a condiment station that's just right. The condiment buffet includes free items such as crispy pickled onions, the best pico-de-gallo in the city, pickles, et al, along with a choice of white and pumpernickel bread. Their pico is so good I usually make a salad out of it and I'm tellin' ya it's not only muy delicioso, but it'll clear out your sinuses as well! If you're ever visiting or move here, trust me, you'll love Bill Miller if your looking for delicious Texas BBQ at reasonable prices! Anyone who rates Bill Miller BBQ less than 5 stars is a spy from a competitor, trust me on this one sports fans!

Oh my goodness... what can I say.... Brandi is one of the BEST stylist I've ever had and will have. I will follow her wherever she goes.
Ok ladies... you know all of us are always skeptical about getting highligts done just the way we want them. Now with my hair being so thick and wavy its never a good experience. But now that I have found Brandi, I need not to look any further. Brandi has the touch! Wow... I never thought my hair could look soooo GREAT! I felt like a new person walking on cloud nine.
Thanks Brandi for making me look and feel great!
Pros: friendly staff, talented stylist
Cons: none

My husband and I visited Ruth's Chris in San Antonio without the kids. They called us by name from the time we got there until they dropped us off at our hotel by way of their free shuttle. The food was amazing as can be expected of any Ruth's Chris but the service in San Antonio was simply unbeatable. They made our evening.. We plan to visit every time we're in town.

This was our first visit to Jacala. My boyfriend and I came to SA for the weekend and stayed on the River Walk. By the time Sunday came we were tired of the commercialized restaurants and blah food on the River Walk.
As a person who loves to cook and has a deep appreciation for food, I was impressed with everything at Jacala. We were seated immediately and drink orders taken right away (Sangria and House margarita). We ordered the Mole Chicken and the Jacala plate but not before tasting the mole sauce as suggested. The mole sauce ranks on my top five list and the chicken was falling off the bone. The cheese enchilada with carne, puffy taco, and queso were quite tasty. I am not normally a fan of refried beans but wrapped up in one of their homemade corn tortillas with some salsa they were perfect. We liked the flour tortillas so much we asked for some to-go!
Our service was spot on. We didn't have to ask for anything and our chips, salsa, and drinks were always full.
I can already tell you I will be craving the chicken mole and the tortillas, so we'll definitely be back! Thanks to the Jacala family for a great dining experience.
Pros: Food, Sangria, Waitstaff
Cons: My tummy isn't big enough!

I stopped into Personal Touch on a lark about two years ago, my hair had gone well past unruly and into the mop territory, they were not able to seat me immediately, of course, but they did squeeze me in for that same day! I loved my first haircut from Sammie and have been going back almost every two weeks since. All of the staff are very welcoming and definitely go the extra mile to make you feel welcome. We have changed my style a few times, and each time Sam has attempted to teach me how to make it work when I get home ( the failure is on my part ;). I was so pleased I took my mother to get her hair treated and styled, and now have been responsible for driving her there once a month now for about a year. Her hair hasn't looked this good in decades. I always refer Personal Touch to my friends every chance I get. Lastly, I love their new location, great parking and super easy to get to, and the new shop is much brighter and more comfortable.
Pros: Friendly, Professional, Skilled, and Accommodating Staff
Cons: I'm a guy so have little use for all of their services :)
