“ Great place in Southtown to unwind. Pool tables, darts boards, great drink specials & the owners are cool people. The Manager Gracie always takes care of our bicycle group when we stop in. I will be a return customer as long as this place is open. ”
“ Wednesday Night steak night was delicious! Nice crowd, friendly atmosphere, clean. Definitely a place to enjoy with friends. We will be back. ”
“ Phantastic! Found this place by happenstance. The food is so good, I ate two plates of it. Unsure of what's on the menu because when I saw the steak on someone else's plate I demanded to have one put in front of me, and when I finished that one, I immediately ordered a second. The people on both sides of the bar were great. I'm visiting from Kentucky and found the lack of bourbon to be the only thing I could complain about, but that didn't hamper any of the fun. ”
“ A super cute banquet hall in downtown San Antonio! We had a wonderful time attending a wedding there this past weekend. The acoustics were pretty darn good and the hall was a nice small-medium Banquet Hall which is hard to come by. There is a bar located inside the Banquet Hall carries a pretty decent selection of beer. They only accept cash, so there is an ATM conveniently located in the bar. If you are looking for a nice, clean, and centrally located Banquet Hall in San Antonio, definitely give this one a look. ”

“ Little eclectic bar that's tucked away and hidden right at the busy Downtown/Southtown split. Don't let the entrance fool you,bits a hometown bar with the best drinks available with an event center attached right at the entrance to King Williams area. Gypsy is amazing as always! Grab your eclipse glasses while you can. ”
