    Dean's Steakhouse in San Antonio made our Christmas dinner unforgettable! The cozy, festive atmosphere set the perfect mood, and the service was exceptional-attentive and friendly. We started with a fresh shrimp cocktail, followed by perfectly cooked prime rib and steaks, complemented by delicious sides like garlic mashed potatoes and roasted Brussels sprouts. The bourbon pecan pie with dulce de leche gelato was the perfect festive touch. A fantastic holiday experience-highly recommend for anyone looking for top-tier dining in San Antonio!

    Had a wonderful breakfast at Dean's Steakhouse in San Antonio, dining in their unique globes! The experience was cozy and intimate, with the globe offering a perfect blend of outdoor vibes and comfort. The breakfast spread was delicious-fluffy scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, and freshly baked toast and jam. The service was top-notch, and the atmosphere, especially with the morning sun filtering through, made it a special way to start the day. If you're looking for a unique and memorable breakfast experience, the globes at Dean's are a must-try!

    Enjoyed a fantastic lunch at Dean's Steakhouse bar on Christmas Eve! The lively atmosphere was filled with festive spirit, with cheerful decorations and a warm, inviting energy. We indulged in their delicious lunch specials, including a perfectly cooked burger and a refreshing lobster avocado salad. The bar staff was friendly and attentive, making sure we felt right at home. With great food, drinks, and a relaxed holiday vibe, it was the perfect way to kick off our Christmas celebrations. Highly recommend for a casual yet festive dining experience!
