Carlos LaurelSeptember 15, 2015The bartenders here know their stuff. Want to try something new? Something classic? They're sure to suggest something you'll enjoy sipping. The relaxing atmosphere at The Pearl make this a favorite.- safoodiegramJune 6, 2014This trendy bar is great for waiting for your table to open, or for a night cap with pals. If you like this spot, check out Mahoney's other creations at George's Keep & Green Lantern.
Estevan SerenaMarch 2, 2013Place gets real busy but the service is still great. Might take a while to get to order your drink, BUT the staff is amazing and will take care of you.

Manny VegaJanuary 15, 2013Been back a few times since it first opened. The secret is to go during none peak hours. Total attention from bar staff :)- Olaf is the best mixologist in SA in my humble opinion! Just tell what you like and he will abide

Linda SuttnerJune 17, 2012I'm not a beer drinker, but I have it on good authority that the devil's backbone on tap will knock you on yo ass ;)- Manny VegaMay 22, 2012New bar in the Pearl Brewery. No table service, and it takes FOREVER to get a drink. It took over two hours to order and drink two beers. Hopefully it gets better.
Jacqueline PrinceFebruary 9, 2014Nice atmosphere and quaint be prepare to wait outside because it fills up quickly :-)
Jesus VirlarMay 19, 2013Just ask for "flavorful" martinis & rotate them..surprise me! And that they will!!
Long waits. Great drinks. Gets super crowded. If you can, get a table upstairs.
CarolinaJune 16, 2013Worst bouncer ever , super rude and disrespectful , for this type of bar there is no need to have people in "line". We are in San Antonio NOT Miami or NYC .

"The bubbling Swiss, roasted eggplant garlic, and sweet onion "bread" was AMAZING! It was like a mini fondue/self-made grilled cheese but better! Quail Popper Skewers are a must!!!"
Maude Edwards - 9.2
"Very sparse shopping, and mostly high-end and 'precious', but nice for an hour or so of sauntering and coffee sips, topping the day with snacks or dinner. (Nice photo ops!)"
Maggie C Perkins - 8.1
"Really good DJ on a Sunday. Music was great and had a lot variety. $2 drinks all night and that's something you can't beat."
