Located in the heart of downtown, The Esquire Tavern is the oldest bar on the San Antonio Riverwalk, opened the year, month and day that Prohibition was repealed. Tending bar in the early days was a highly prized and much sought after craft. Bar keeps then created many of their own syrups, mixes and concoctions and used the freshest of juices with the intention of serving the best products. We at the Esquire have taken a serious approach to the old world of bartending and spun it with a modern twist. Combining classic techniques and new world flavors and culinary concepts, our goal is to lead and set San Antonio's emerging cocktail culture on the map.

    Atmosphere was elegant and comfortable. Service was impeccable. We had a noisy table of 7 or 8 people beside us. There was a bar 2 stories below us with a piano singer that was piped throughout the building so fairly noisy. We both got steaks,I ordered the American 6oz wagyu that was not even hot when I received it. Only ate 1/4 of it. This 6 Oz steak was sliced very thin...was a disappointment and flavor that wasn't anything special. It was priced 1.00 higher then my husband's 8oz thick cut filet that was hot upon receiving it. BREAD is not complimentary but was brought to us without us being asked if we wanted it but there is a $5.00 charge for bread although it was amazing. Pretzel bread addictive. If you order a double cocktail well drink be prepared to be charged like you ordered 2 cocktails. My husband's crown and 7 double in a tall glass was 34.00 each😲. Shrimp cocktail was amazing and the cocktails were really good. Total bill for 2 was 270.00....bring your 💰🤑

    We went for our 38th Anniversary and the evening was perfect! It was probably the absolute best dining experience we have ever had! From the moment we entered the front door every single employee that greeted us was impeccable. They were friendly, extremely accommodating and attentive. I have certain dietary restrictions and they went above and beyond to be accommodating. Our server Brad was a true credit to his profession and made our entire night fabulous! Our meal, of course, was delicious but the entire experience was what did it for us! Well done Bonahan’s, well done!

    Overall experience. 2nd trip in 30 days, this time was a date with my wife. Sat in the booth where the lights didn’t work and attended said she would get a manager to check them never came back. Server said later that booth and the other open booth haven’t worked in a while. Bread was outstanding, lobster risotto was excellent but very light on the lobster, and my dish also was very good but very little meat (didn’t take the remaining since all meat was gone). the wine my wife wanted was sold out from the menu. Overall, will probably not return.
