We started with the cinnamon roll for our appetizer, and wow! It soft, fluffy, and perfectly indulgent. The cream cheese icing paired with the caramel was rich without being overwhelming. Easily one of those “I’m thinking about it days later” pastries.
The country sausage hash was hearty and comforting in the best way. The Pork sausage had great flavor, the red potatoes were crispy, and the poached egg tied everything together beautifully. A well balanced dish that felt elevated but still classic brunch comfort.
The traditional Benedict was a standout. Perfectly cooked Canadian bacon, a smooth and flavorful hollandaise. The fried red potatoes on the side were crispy and seasoned just right.
The atmosphere is relaxed yet refined, service was attentive, and the food presentation was beautiful (photos don’t lie). If you’re brunching at the Pearl, Southerleigh is absolutely worth the stop. I’d happily come back to try more of the menu.
The food itself was decent. While looking through the menu, my friends and I found some of the dish names a bit difficult to understand, so we checked the Google review photos to get a better idea of what some items looked like. When our server came by, we asked about a few dishes we saw in the photos. She explained that those items were either seasonal or part of the brunch menu, which was completely understandable. We then took a few recommendations from her and placed our order.
However, shortly after walking away, she returned within about five seconds and said, “If you eat here regularly, you would know.” The comment felt unnecessary and caught us off guard.
Our drinks and water were served first, and everything seemed normal. About 55 minutes after we placed our order, she came back to check on us again. We smiled and said we were doing well and were ready for the food. She responded by rolling her eyes and saying that the food takes time because it’s made from scratch. We absolutely understand and appreciate that quality food takes time, but the tone and attitude made the interaction uncomfortable.
When it was time to pay, my friend handed over the card. Before she processed it, I asked if there was a military discount available. She ignored the question and immediately ran the card. When I asked again, she said the payment had already been processed and that she would have to cancel the transaction to apply anything. It felt like the question was intentionally avoided.
Despite the experience, my friend still left the standard 20% tip.
Overall, the main issue during this visit was the service. We didn’t feel particularly welcomed or comfortable. Because of this experience, I’m not sure if I would return or recommend the restaurant again, which is disappointing given how much I enjoyed my first visit.

We stopped by on valentines for lunch. Outdoor sitting. Drinks were good. We ordered the biscuit and chicken and the grits. By far the grits were the best I have ever eaten. The potato’s and chicken and were good too. The biscuit was a little too seasoned for me. Overall a great experience. Staff was very attentive
Drinks were unique and delicious. I also enjoyed their beer on tap. Food was really solid. I’m going to have to say one of the best deviled eggs we’ve had! Loved the tuna and tomato tartar as well. We had eaten a lot earlier in the day and settled on a chocolate tart for dessert with no entree. It was incredible too. Was very happy to have found this place online and made a reservation before coming to San Antonio. I would highly recommend it if you enjoy food without it being too stuffy.
I recently had my second Michelin-starred restaurant experience, and it absolutely met all my expectations.
The restaurant’s atmosphere was quite distinctive and impressive; you immediately feel special inside. The high standard was maintained in the service as well. Our waiter was extremely attentive and cheerful, which made the whole experience much more enjoyable.
One often assumes that portions at Michelin restaurants are small, but that was not the case here. The food portions were adequate and quite satisfying. Most importantly, the flavours were truly spot on. Every single plate reflected the quality of the ingredients and the care put into the cuisine.
In short, it was an unforgettable experience and worth every
