    Everything was delicious! Had the Kimchi salad, crispy chicken and fries. The AC was not working great at so it was as very warm in the restaurant.

    Thank you so much for dining with us and for the kind words about the food—we're thrilled you enjoyed the kimchi salad, karaage chicken, and fries! We're sorry to hear it was warmer than expected during your visit. We’ve been working to address the AC issue and truly appreciate your patience and understanding. We hope to welcome you back again soon under cooler, more comfortable conditions!

    Tokyo Cowboy is now on my list for all visitors to my city! The martini (Mogwai's Night Out) was fresh and so tasty - a new fave. We also enjoyed the pickled plate, which was a perfect pairing. Can't wait to visit again!
    Tokyo CowboyResponded 1 day ago
    Thank you so much for the glowing review, Sharon! We’re honored to be on your must-visit list for guests—and thrilled that Mogwai’s Night Out and the pickled plate hit the spot. It's always wonderful to hear when someone finds a new favorite cocktail (and collects a lucky kitty pin too!). We can’t wait to welcome you back for another round with that perfect Riverwalk view.

    I just returned from Italy, so I’m comparing my experience at Tokyo Cowboy with that, and it is outstanding. In every way the four of us were impressed. And we live in San Antonio! The truth is, our city is unique. We’re just below the radar of the national press, developing our gastrointestinal scene and vibe our way. Tokyo Cowboy probably couldn’t have been started anyplace in Italy, much less found a footing. I’m proud to live here.

    Thank you so much for this incredible review, Stan — it means the world coming from someone freshly back from Italy and proudly local to San Antonio. We're honored to be part of the unique culinary scene our city is building, and we're thrilled that Tokyo Cowboy stood out in such great company. We also truly appreciate your kind words about Dez — she is a gem, and we’re lucky to have her. We’ll be sure to pass this along to her. We look forward to welcoming you and your group back soon!

    Really love this place. Great service and amazing food every time. You should try the cheeseburger if you visit. Share as an appetizer or enjoy as an entree. Comes with a dipping sauce that is out of this world amazing!
    Tokyo CowboyResponded on 15 May 2025
    Thank you so much for the love, Jennifer! We're thrilled to hear that Tokyo Cowboy continues to impress — and yes, that cheeseburger is definitely a sleeper hit! The dipping sauce is one of our favorite touches too. We can't wait to welcome you back for another great experience soon!

    Wow. They nailed it. I enjoyed lunch on this visit. The decor is a subtle intertwining of culture’s, as is the food. The fusion of flavors was exquisite and not overdone. It was delicate yet comfort food: Asian and Southern Texas cuisine. Add to that a welcoming staff from hostess to server. I’m married to a renown French chef and a very spoiled foodie who has traveled the world tasting, and I am coming back to this restaurant for dinner before I leave. It is that good. Bravo. Well done.
    Tokyo CowboyResponded on 12 May 2025
    Wow—thank you for such a thoughtful and generous review, Deb! We're truly honored by your praise, especially coming from someone with such a discerning palate and deep appreciation for global cuisine. It means the world to our team to know the fusion of flavors and hospitality resonated with you. We can’t wait to welcome you back for dinner—until then, bravo to you too!

    First off, Dez! Amazing server and quick attention when needed. Bar was fantastic, drinks were very tasty. We had several items, cooked to perfection. While it appeared portions were small, appearances were deceiving. The food was well prepared and plated. We will return for dinner!
    Tokyo CowboyResponded on 12 May 2025
    Thank you so much for the kind words! We’re thrilled to hear Dez took great care of you and that you enjoyed both the cocktails and your meal. We love hearing when the flavors—and portions—surprise in the best way. Looking forward to welcoming you back for dinner soon!
