Scott,
Are you the same scott that came to Ward's gym for the bball thing?
And $1 shiner, that's crazy. You can't even get it for that much at the store.
No one has mentioned SA Prime? Support a Spurstalk.com'er (msufan) and head out there for your T-Bone!
Salt Grass is great during happy hour though... $1 Shiner at the Bar (actually... I think they raised it to $1.50...)

Yeah, that's me.
Before you get too excited about the $1 Shiner... it's like a 12 oz. glass... but still, a good deal.
That's not bad at all.
We sell the 12 oz bottles for 1.39...and so do most other stores. Where is the place you're talking about located, the SA Prime?
SA Prime is located on Broadway inside of 410, just past where Karma/Rebar/Revolution Room etc. are.
They actually were recently named "Best New Restaurant" for 2006 by SA Current Readers. http://www.zwire.com/site/news.cfm?n...d=553352&rfi=6
Cool, I'm in that area often...used to live there as well. I will check it out.
I am craving some goat daal.
Hahah I see India Palace on there at #2 for best ethnic restaurant.
Good Indian food I'm telling you. Not much variety though. They put the same 10 dishes out every day. With the same 5 sweets.
I'm surprised noone has mentioned Good Time Charlies.
that was the best T-Bone I've had in San Antoino.
yum.
I mostly order ribeyes or filet mignons.... but that ribeye was so good i cried. 16 oz's of sheer red juicy perfection. :p of course I was pregnant, so that maybe where the crying came into play.
I had to take my sides home in a doggy bag so that I could eat the whole steak fresh there at the place.
ahhhhh. memories.
I go to Saltgrass alot as well, but my personal prefrence is still Barn Door.
but Saltgrass is a close second, probably one of the better Prime Rib places that are still in business.
Veladi Ranch was probably the best prime rib joint in San Antonio, too bad its not open anymore.
Also Kori, did you guys go to the Barn Door over by your house, or the one on N. New Braunfels?
there was a HUGE difference between the two.
New Braunfels.
The one by our house is closed down.
Noticed GrandeDavid posted about RuthChris...therefore I submit a link for those who like that type of establishment.

I've only eaten at Morton's in Beverly Hills and Vegas (not the one here) but I'd imagine it's the same thing.
I hate sitting through their whole menu presentation.
My job right now is mapping community resources in the southside and eastside, and I can tell you right now that there still aren't any bookstores there - and many zip codes in that area do not have public library branches. Added to the lack of adequate Via service in those zip codes without libraries, it's no wonder a lot of those kids aren't testing well when their only source of literature are their public school libraries, and they rarely see their parents reading. </soapbox>
Wasn't there beef over there not being a bookstore on the southside?
On topic, my dad has been buying steaks and tenderloins from the meat market at the Barn Door for the last 20+ years and freezing them in Houston to cook later. They've always come out well, so it's a good option for cooking your own (reasonably priced by the way) - the whole tenderloins are great for entertaining, too.
The last few times I've been to Morton's I've thought their steaks were a little overrated - I love it for the sides (their creamed spinach is fantastic).
gonna buy some new york strips later, put them in the smoker for at least 20 minutes first though, let them cook partially and soak up that smoke, then grill them. it will be delicious. may get t-bones depending on how they look.
I'm surprised no ones mentioned the infamous Little Red Barn for a descent steak at a descent price. I haven't been in a while but I know their food ain't bad. Good rolls, salad, and pretty good steak fries too. Oh and I like those cowgirl outfits the waitresses wear.
The only time I've heard that name is on the 760 ads.
India Palace is pretty ing good, but if its the one im thinking of, its wayyyy too expensive.Hahah I see India Palace on there at #2 for best ethnic restaurant.

Best Restaurant More Than 20 Years Old
1. Earl Abel’s
2. Mi Tierra
3. Spaghetti Warehouse
You gotta be effin' kidding me!
It was mentioned at the bottom of the first page. Decent place to stop off at but in that price range, I like to go to Josephine St. Nice little roadhouse atmosphere with a big honkin' tree right in the middle of it. They are a little hit and miss though. Some days the steak is fantastic others mearly good.
I've eaten at Barn Door about five times and it was good but I still like Saltgrass better. Outback is good too but the kind of information I look for is the "hole-in-the-wall" little know joints in and around town. Any one of those with a great steak?
Also, I'm headed to Vegas next month and I always try to hit a top quality steakhouse. So far my favorites are the Voodoo Cafe at the Rio and Prime at Bellagio. Thinking about going to the Emeril's Delmonico Steakhouse at the Venetian. Any Vegas goers have any other suggestions?
What the heck kind of question is that????
Thou shalt not regard any steak above the Ruths Chris steak-pseudofanian 1:12
Saltgrass is awesome.
If you ever get to eat the steak @ Reggiano's I'd highly suggest it.
The Piatti's ribeye BLEW!
I am not a beef eater, but one I know swears by the prime rib at Houston's. The closest one to San Antonio is in Austin. I could go for some of their chicken strips.
