Fantastic restaurant with the best atmosphere bar in San Antonio. I got the best bison burger I’ve had tasted in my life. Also tried their drinks and it was fantastic. You can tell they take a lot of care with their food and drinks to make them the best. The Food is good, check this place out.

Lots of history with The Esquire, but also a nice spot for a cocktail and food. Go with the happy hour drink menu. Like bourbon? Esquire won’t disappoint. Sat inside, but a nice table outdoors would be much enjoyed. The onion dip was excellent. 100 footlong bar is uber cool to saddle up to for a cocktail. The history of the bar is worth exploring. Cheers!!

We ate here on a weekday evening. The food was very good. Burger was great, fries were seasoned well, quail was delicious, and the drinks were tasty. However, the service was slow to start and not very helpful. Also, the restaurant was very dark. We had to turn our phone lights on to read the menus. I lightened the photos so you can see the inside. There are two entries to the place, one in the street side and one on the Riverwalk side (pictured). It’s got a vibe, and the food is good, just not for us.

This is the oldest bar in San Antonio. Very dimmly lit with dark woods. Awesome atmosphere. Handcrafted cocktails and try their own beer that is only sold there. The food was amazing, as well. There is also a downstairs area that is more intimate with a more limited food menu. Definitely a place to go to.

While visiting San Antonio, The Esquire Tavern was our first stop along the Riverwalk, and wow, did it ever set the bar high! The vintage speakeasy feel of the oldest bar on the Riverwalk immediately entranced us when we walked in. The back shelves are lined with an impressive collection of all different spirits (especially bourbon) and the warm backlighting beckons customers to order their favorite cocktails. Daniel enthusiastically welcomed us to San Antonio, and walked us through the menu, giving us his suggestions and recommended go-tos. We immediately felt at home on the plush leather bar stools, and as we sipped our drinks, Daniel told us about the city and even made a list of places to visit. Phenomenal service, ambiance, and the cocktails were delicious. We didn’t order food this time around, but we will definitely back to try their full menu!

I absolutely love The Esquire! The food is amazing, and the cocktails are next level — my favorite is the Hotel Nacional. We went for our anniversary dinner, and it did not disappoint. The atmosphere is cozy and relaxing, lit beautifully with tea lights throughout the restaurant. The waitresses were super attentive and so sweet! The view from the balcony overlooking the River Walk is stunning, and they even have a bar downstairs. Overall, 10/10 experience!

Came for the downstairs but ended up upstairs. If you’re not sure, just go, place is a vibe, bustling but not too much. Sit at the bar and Daniel will give you the best drink and food option based on your vibe and feels at the time, he nailed it. Dans the man.

Stopped by in early November, prior to attending a concert at the Majestic Theatre. We were greeted by Daniel and immediately knew that we were in for a fun time. Daniel’s personality flows from one end of the 100 foot bar to the other. Both Daniel and Diana kept us entertained, the entire time we were there, however, they did not ignore the other patrons. Diana made a superb Old Fashioned and the wife and I shared a Prime Rib (Medium Rare, of course). The meal came out surprising quick and was delicious. This is a definite MUST STOP location for anyone looking for great drinks, fantastic food and entertainment. Thank you for making our trip enjoyable.

As we entered the Tavern from the Riverwalk Steps we were immediately greeted by a group of very friendly faces, we took a seat at the bar where our Mixologist Daniel began our evening.
First explaining the Specialities of the house, which led us to allowing his guidance to be the choices for our beverages and food.
This was an excellent decision as Daniel was able to make libations for the Wife that satisfied her taste.
The food we had the Bean Burger (definitely not a vegetarian burger at all) the name is surprising as it is a decadent Chopped brisket burger, with a house made bean paste on top!
This Was absolutely fantastic, the Chile Salt Fries were ordered with the burger Perfection at is best.
The atmosphere coupled with one of the greatest staffs we have encountered in a long time from the GM, wait staff, they all of them were friendly, fun and welcoming you felt more like a member of their family than a guest in a restaurant.
There is an atmosphere here that allows for A group of friends to a family with small kids to feel very welcome, and enjoy a great time with some very amazing food..
Kudos to the owners and managers for creating such a wonderful experience, it makes for easy planning of our next trip to San Antonio!
