*2024 Michelin Recommended*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. Gulf seafood conspires with Atlantic Coast oysters flown in fresh, and the Hill Country is well-represented year-round. Local and organic ingredients change the menu as the seasons peak and wane, but the constants are quality, flavor, artistry in the kitchen and a warm welcome when you walk in the door.

The food was excellent and cannot be recommended highly enough. To new customers, when they say spicy it is generally based on a person who tolerates no spice, so if you like spicy foods (especially asiatic spices like hot oil) you might want to consider the extra spicy add on for more kick.

The food is always excellent (highly recommend the "famous" green beans and the Don Po pork belly) and comes out SO quickly. Recommend a reservation to speed up wait time, but definitely worth the wait!

In terms of brunch food, but the price was fairly reasonable. It was easy to get in and out of the hotel and the Saint Anthony is a beautiful, downtown, historic San Antonio Hotel. My only complaint is that it was a bit noisy, and the server didn’t even refill our glass of water. I’d go back for the ambience and it’s in walking distance of the Majestic. So it’s a great choice before show.
