JW Marriott San Antonio - 18 Oaks Reviews List

JW Marriott San Antonio - 18 Oaks

18 Oaks focuses on outstanding quality of meats and seafood prepared with style and expertise. Food is masterfully prepared showing a sensibility of season leveraging the best products in Texas. The Menu gracefully flows from a modern breakfast to a lunch menu of American flair with a splattering of steakhouse favorites to a classic steakhouse in the evenings. Entrees feature skillfully prepared premium steaks and seafood with your choice of sauces...located within the majestic grounds of the JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort and Spa. 18 Oaks not only is the center of activity in the TPC San Antonio Club House, but we represent the highest level of commitment to locally produced, organic ingredients in the area, leveraging the strong relationships developed with local farmers, ranchers, winemakers and brewers. The design is a delicate balance of warm tones and cool textures that reflect a lively, refined and inviting space.

"We spent the weekend at this JW Marriott and our Friday night dinner here was superb. I had a wonderful piece of salmon, shrimp bisque and my wife had the filet mignon steak cooked to perfection. We shared a bottle of Kris Italian Pinot Grigio. The food and service were first class."

"We went for their brunch this past Sunday. This was our second time and their brunch is one of the best of the city. Although the food was outstanding the service from the waitress was not. Maybe because was a busy day but still the whole experience was not great."

"Overall a disappointment for the price. Food wasn't 5 star but the price was. I don't know what I was expecting overall, a great meal with fantastic service, I guess. What we got was a commercial for the sustainable resort, and an okay meal. I did like the knife selection as I collect knives from Inoc too, that was a nice touch. I do have a very positive comment to make, the bread, pickles and jerky was great!"
