If you find yourself dreaming of the Texas Hill Country, savory comforts, spice, and the sultry depth of a fine Burgundy, you’ll be pleased to know about Signature at La Cantera Resort & Spa. The menu is straightforward and beguiling, featuring contemporary interpretations of classic dishes — fresher, brighter versions of traditional cuisine enlivened with unconventional Texas spirit. Gulf seafood conspires with Atlantic Coast oysters flown in fresh, and the Hill Country is well-represented year-round. Local and organic ingredients change the menu as the seasons peak and wane, but the constants are quality, flavor, artistry in the kitchen and a warm welcome when you walk in the door.

    Great experience celebrating birthday. The salmon appetizer was delicious. Short rib risotto and Morel Filet were both done perfectly and tasted great. The best part was the New York cheesecake, one of the best we've had. Juan Paolo's (spelling?) service was impeccable, and he recommended a superb bottle of wine. Would definitely dine here again for a special occasion.

    Our server was Gracie, she was very sweet and we loved how she interacted with us. We each ordered a few appetizers which were amazing. I had the halibut, which was unlike anything I’ve tasted. Also enjoyed a few drinks which were top tier. This was my in laws first time here and they really enjoyed themselves. We always love a great culinary experience. Everything was excellent, which is why we keep coming back.

    There is a reason why some restaurants become a classic stable in the fine dining scene in San Antonio and it begins with the service and attention to customer requests. We have loved this establishment for decades and were very concerned when their transformation to a very different location was first announced. But, no worries. It is the same superior service and attention to the wants and wishes of their diners which sets this restaurant above the majority. I was painfully reminded of this fact all of NYE week, when many established restaurants could not perform well. We are so very delighted to for the recent return of Friday lunches. Just another reason why Fridays are my favorite day of the week.
