Description:
DOWNTOWN. Guests at the Marriott Plaza San Antonio are fortunate – they don't even have to leave the premises to sample Anaqua Room's Southwestern take on contemporary American fare. Stand-out dishes include crab meat pancakes with fava beans and blackened salmon with blue corn-fried oysters. Views of historic cottages and a garden make the dining room an enticing space. Anaqua also offers a decent wine list, and a slightly more hectic hotel bar is adjacent. Easy access to the courtyard demands a romantic after-dinner stroll. |

|
|
|
|
| |
Description:
SAN ANTONIO. The massive chandelier of shed antlers won't cast a shadow on your dining experience at this resort restaurant. Texas cuisine with a (very elegant) twist is offered nightly, as proven by quail with mascarpone grits or free-range bison tenderloin. More traditional options include certified Angus prime rib and sauteed Gulf grouper. An above-average wine list and dessert menu round out your meal. Plus, there's not a bad seat in the house: enjoy views of either the resort golf course or the partially open kitchen. |

Biga on the Banks |

|
|
|
| |
Description:
RIVER WALK. Request table 31 when you make a reservation at Biga on the Banks, and you'll end up with the best view in the house. You won't be gazing at the river, but you will have an eye on chef Bruce Auden as he concocts lobster ravioli on arugula and guinea ham in guajillo sauce. Tasting menus are a draw, but the food is equally as interesting when ordered a la carte. The loft-inspired space is airy and light – you'll have plenty of elbow room when you dig in. |

Book a table on the barge and enjoy a river tour and a prix fixe meal, or sit by the window and watch life float peacefully by while you indulge your appetite. |

Description:
RIVER WALK. Reel in some of the area's freshest wild seafood at Pesca. Feast on clams and ceviche at the glass-and-stone oyster bar in the center of the restaurant, or try crab and asparagus soup or Prince Edward Island mussels with chorizo. Subtle flavors are coaxed out through roasting, steaming, and grilling; if you're looking for fried popcorn shrimp, go elsewhere. The nautically-themed space features a rooftop cafe and a 10-seat private dining room. |
