Lin's International Buffet
had lunch at Lin’s International Buffet today and was impressed with the variety of options, especially for seafood lovers like me. Here’s an overview of some highlights from my meal: 1. Seafood Selection: The buffet featured crawfish, shrimp, and crab, all of which were flavorful and freshly prepared. The boiled shrimp had a nice texture, while the crawfish was well-seasoned. The inclusion of corn on the cob alongside seafood made it feel like a mini seafood boil experience. 2. Fried Options: The fried shrimp and breaded seafood bites were crispy and satisfying. They paired well with the dipping sauces available at the buffet. 3. Sushi and Cold Bar: The sushi options were diverse, including rolls with salmon, tuna, and vegetarian ingredients. While the sushi presentation was appealing, the freshness could have been better. 4. Soups: The seafood soup was light yet flavorful, with a prominent shrimp taste and hearty vegetables. It made for a great starter. 5. Vegetables and Salads: The buffet offered a good range of salads and vegetables. I particularly enjoyed the fresh lettuce, cucumber, and marinated carrots. However, labeling for ingredients was inconsistent, making it hard to determine what some dishes contained. 6. Main Courses: The fried fish was cooked well, with a crisp coating and flaky interior. The addition of lemon slices and steamed broccoli as sides was a nice touch. While the selection is impressive, I feel improvements could be made in two areas: First, clearer labeling of ingredients is essential for people with dietary preferences or allergies. Second, the freshness of some dishes (like the sushi and a few warm items) could be enhanced, especially during peak hours. Overall, it was a great experience for an all-you-can-eat buffet, and I’d rate it 4/5. I would recommend this place for anyone who enjoys variety and seafood.
Really don't know how to review this place. The food was fine and service was very friendly. Music was a little to loud. We tried a couple of items and none were bad but also nothing great. These bowls should cost closer to $8.50-12. For that price I would possibly go back. Between our two families we ordered 7 different things. Our favorite was the side of noodles. Had great flavor and not to oily.
Himalayan Kitchen
I ordered the butter chicken that had so much flavor and the sauce was thick not to creamy with the right amount of spice on the medium, I also got the cheese naan and rosemary naan to dip with the sauce and basmati rice to give it the perfect combo in every bite, I also got the gajar ka halwa which is a sweet shredded carrot dessert with raisins that reminded me of sweet potato casserole, and I got the gulab Jamun that is kinda like a sweet donut ball made out of sweet milk and flour and syrup sauce. The meal was delish.
This was our first time here for my wife and I. We’d never experienced any type of Indian food before. Our server Nutan was so friendly and attentive. Drinks were refilled without having to ask. She always had a smile on her face and she was so friendly. Food was amazing as well. Sweet and sour pork was out of this world. Rosemary Naan was so good as well.
Yum Thai Restaurant
Yumm Thai!!! Decent Thai restaurant and good food. We happen to be in the area and looked up their menu in interest. However, our server rushed on us to place an order. The restaurant closes at 9 pm and we were on the table at 8 pm. So we asked other servers, and she very much comforted us and took good care that we are not rushed. Thanks to her. However, because of this experience, we only ordered Chicken Satay and Drunken Noodles and decided to leave shortly. Otherwise we were planning to order their Green Curry, Pineapple Rice and dessert 😞 Food was good. Chicken Satay was nicely flavored, tender, and soft. Noodles were well cooked tossed in sauces, tomatoes, bell pepper adding that burnt wok flavor. We liked the food but did not enjoy it. We felt undone and incomplete. Though will say the place is nice and welcoming. Food taste is good. Good portion. If you are in the area, do try it.
The food was pretty good. My other dishes and beverages were flavorful. I’m disappointed with the mango sticky rice. I get it consistently. Sometimes it’s too milky or it’s too dry, and mango is not ripe. Flavor was good this time, but I paid $8 for what looks like about $3-4 of food. This is not the first time either.
Ginza Ramen and Poke
I got the Raman with crispy chicken and kiwi fruit tea. I really enjoyed both of them and my food came really fast (less than 5 minutes) I forgot to ask the waiters name but she was amazing!
Amazing. We got a miso with vegetables and tofu, and it was absolutely delicious. The miso had a deep flavor, the tofu had a nice, firm texture, and the ramen had the best texture. Very good selection for vegetarians and vegans. Highly recommend!!!
Fish City Grill
Was in a bit of a rush today, so I had to do take-out. Decided to try Fish City Grill on a whim, and it turned out to be a great choice. First time here, and I was pleasantly surprised at the atmosphere/ambiance. Very cool vibe. Great service, quick too. Prices are reasonable. Great food as well as it should be. We will definitely return to try out more of their offerings.
After searching for a good oyster place while visiting San Antonio, chose Fish City Grill Culebra and had an outstanding experience from start to finish. Arriving during happy hour, we were warmly greeted by the friendly staff, setting the tone for a great experience. The menu struck the perfect balance, offering a variety of delicious options. The standout dish was the fried oyster nachos—truly a revelation that exceeded all expectations. Our server, Tiffany, was not only attentive but also provided great recommendations, enhancing our meal. Additionally, B treated us to a menu sampler that showcased the freshness of their scratch kitchen. Every bite was delightful. Definitely recommend Fish City Grill Culebra for anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience. The combination of excellent service, nice bar, and mouthwatering dishes makes it a must-visit!
Olive Garden Italian Restaurant
Unfortunately missed the mark. Booths were small for a 4 top. We were bumping elbows the whole meal. Table that was seated after us got bread sticks and salad well before we did. Never got offered refills. Half the entrees were too hot to eat when served and the lasagna was super thin, like half a typical lasagna (see picture). Food ultimately tasted good, but temp and serving size were way off.
I had such a wonderful experience at Olive Garden! Our server, Karina , was absolutely fantastic. She was not only attentive and efficient but also brought so much joy to our meal with her funny, sweet, and positive energy. The food was delicious, served hot and fresh, and we never felt rushed. From the endless breadsticks to the perfectly seasoned pasta, everything hit the spot. But honestly, the highlight was the service. Karina made us feel like family, and that’s exactly what keeps us coming back.
Kumori Sushi & Teppanyaki
We went to try the AYCE which is very competitively priced (20 before 5 pm on weekdays or 30 all day for dinner with more options. ) Only 4 stars because the food takes so long as the sushi chefs and kitchen are backed up- but tastes great and looks beautiful, just like the Potranco location. But unlike the other location, the actual staff friendliness and service is outstanding! Sandra made sure all our drinks stayed filled and was very patient and kind. She was a Rockstar. And the other team was accommodating as well when we spilled our glass. So clean too.
The sushi was fresh and the San Antonio, Philadelphia and Rainbow roll was delicious. Looking at the menu I saw a “chihuahua” roll which sounds sooo SA and will definitely try next time.
House of China Chinese Restaurant
I'll start with whenever we want Chinese delivered we choose the House of China! We were actually in the area one Saturday and said, Let's go have their food fresh, and boy, was it a treat! We were greeted and seated right away, the restaurant was clean, spacious, and a bit fancy! Our drink and app orders were taken right away. We received our drinks quickly and our appetizers about 8 minutes later. We got the Fish balls which had a great sauce on them and a wonderful filling. My wife said these were her new favorite fish balls! We also got the smashed cucumbers which were fresh and garlicky! We then received our entrees' we got the combination Udon noodles and they were saucy, chewy and delicious and all the meat was fresh and tender! I also got the Salt and Pepper chicken, which was fresh and crunchy and so very tasty! I know we'll continue to order and visit this restaurant when we want Chinese food!
When you start off with Miso soup that exceeds expectations, you can only hope the entrée will be as good. I can tell you it was even better! From the simple salad with a wonderful house dressing to some of the best Mongolian beef I've ever had. For me, even the egg roll raised the bar. I know it's been a while since I've had a proper egg roll, but this also had to be one of the best. Fast, friendly, clean, and even affordable. Especially after spending the day at Sea World. Great job, House of China. We are saving you in our favorites, so we can dine again when we come on vacation.
