Antlers Lodge - San Antonio

Are they open? I heard that there closed for now due to construction

Gabriella (Gabby) was absolutely amazing! Every recommendation she made from wine to appetizer to entrees and finishing with dessert was perfection. Great attention to detail and knowing the menu, fun personality and took amazing care. Hot Cajun Dip was good but needed more break to start as it's a bit thinner but was delish. The sweet cream butter with the bread service could have been my dessert. The pineapple cheesecake was the perfect serving size but crust couldn't be broken with a spoon. The cherry dessert was so unique and gorgeous as well as delicious.

We loved that there was a special price fixe menu for the kids that wasn 't just chicken tenders/hamburgers, etc. With just that alone, the kids knew this was a special, fancy place where they had to behave. We all ended up having a lovely meal. Everything cooked to perfection.

Service was just okay, but our waitress didn't know for sure what had my allergens in which dishes. Which surprised us because making reservations asked just that. They also were not great at communicating what was happening. We had two other servers help our server with basic tasks, such as delviering bread, opening wine, and refilling wine and water. We waited well over 45 minutes for our entrees, which we ordered 4 types of steak. The meat trio platter came out with three different temps, and my strip hadn't had the fat rendered. They all tasted great, so we really didn't want to wait for them to be refired. As of now, minimalistic remodel, tables and chairs were nice and yet it was very very loud, as in cafeteria loud. They should have installed sound panels during the remodel. My husband and I sat at a two top and could barely hear each other because of the acoustics. The manager did come over and ask about the issues which he found helpful to relay to the staff. At the end of the meal we were given a box of truffles which contained my allergen. May go back if they get their issues resolved. (Ps forgot to mention sound issues to manager as I was more focused on relaying the food issues.

Jacob at check in was amazing. We had some challenges and he stepped up to the plate above and beyond what could be expected. The experience was great from start to finish and I really enjoyed the peppercorn on the NY Strip. We came back a 2nd night in a row not only for the menu but service. Make reservations! They book up and it’s worth the visit. PSA, I do recommend nicer attire and behavior as well. They did accommodate guests who came in very casual. It just didn’t add to the ambiance. Kid-friendliness: Lots of children. I brought my children who are accustomed to finer dining though there were an alarming amount of iPads at dinner tables
