sara lopeza month agoMy son loved the playground. We were comfortable sitting outside in the covered area wit fans. Very good service and drinks. Smoking area in the back. Not sure happy hours but it was still going between 3-4 pm on a Sunday.
Seth Larson5 months agoMy son really like the outdoor play area. The queso was okay, the pizza was okay. Service was decent. I consider this more bar than restaurant so expect higher pricing.
Priscilla Casares7 months agoFor a kids birthday party this is the place. My nieces had a playground at her disposal for several hours. Which definitely tires them out. There is indoor and outdoor seating. We were outdoors it was a nice day, but I wish there were more fans around to provide a little more air flow. The bench area and playground area were clean, and well spaced for multiple parties. 🎈 The staff were friendly even with so much chaos. It did take a little to get things out but I was very busy. Our waiter Jeremy I believe was very attentive, kind, and had great customer service. (Unfortunately I’m better with face than I am names). Overall a great experience. All the staff we encountered was hands on, and made everything go so smoothly. The food was amazing! I have the strip burger 🍔 and worth every bite. The fries were cooked with a tasteful crunch. The hot girl summer combo is a must with the pineapple beer you can’t get anywhere else. You’ve got to try it!
Deborah Mayard Benavides6 months agoWe celebrated my son in law's 40th birthday this weekend. We made lunch reservations since we are a large group with kids. When we arrived, our reserved tables were clearly marked and ready for us. The server assigned to us said she was new but she did a great job at handling so many of us on separate checks. She was friendly, attentive and sweet. My apologies for not remembering her name. We ordered a lot of food! I didn't get to take photos with so many of us but my son loved the pulled pork sandwich. The fries were also great and crispy. We got several pizzas and they were all cooked well and delicious (and I'm picky with pizza). We also got beer and cocktails. The beer was cold. The cocktails were great but contained a lot of ice, which melted quickly in the sun. They have several beer/drink flights and I loved that. We tried all of them. Our bill was a bit higher than we expected. They also add an automatic 20% gratuity for large groups but they did tell us about it when we arrived. The playground was a nice addition for the little ones. It is in a contained space so you don't have to worry as much about little wanderers. There were a lot of children playing. They also have a lot of fans in the outside area. The day heated up quickly so these were really appreciated. The signs outside are funny! Inside there is a cute bench/photo wall for family pics or selfies. This place is also dog friendly. In fairness, I don't visit a lot of dog friendly places (I love dogs, just not with my food). In my opinion, this is where things fell short. You could smell the faint odor of dog poop everywhere. We changed tables twice to try to distance ourselves from the smell. Some areas were worse than others but you could still smell it everywhere. Oddly, there were no dogs there when we arrived at 1 pm. It made us feel uneasy about allowing the babies on the playground turf. I am unsure if this is common of dog friendly establishments but it really impacted our experience. Our intention was to spend a few hours celebrating but we couldn't take it. We ate, sang Happy Birthday and left. We could still smell it on us after we left so we had to go shower before going elsewhere. Sadly, I would not return to dine in or hang out here but I would still order a pizza to go!
nathan3 months agoMe and my girlfriend came here on a night when we couldn’t find anything and man old man will be surprised with not only the nice atmosphere but our server Cody he was phenomenal. I cannot wait to come back and see Cody and have some more delicious pizza definitely top 10 pizza in San Antonio. Thanks again Cody and thanks again to the backyard for making my Wednesday night. Wonderful.
