Today Best Quality Daughter is located in the historic Mueller House at the Pearl Brewery. Curated by chef Jennifer Hwa Dobbertin, Best Quality Daughter's menu takes inspiration from her travels and the comfort food of her youth as a second-generation Chinese-American.

    What an experience. This place is the complete package for downtown San Antonio. The food quality, taste, and presentation are excellent. The professional service further enhances the dining experience. The low noise level is the one thing that truly sets this destination apart from other fine dining establishments in the city—finally, a restaurant where you can easily converse without straining to hear over the noise. The restaurant's ambiance in the old German brick schoolhouse is such a beautiful and heartwarming feature that it takes it to the next level. Welcome to San Antonio Dean’s!

    The food was so excellent! Super fresh and interesting flavors. The cocktail menu was so creative and fun; it was hard to choose, but I opted for the Nightshades - a spicy Asian gin drink - Yum! We had smashed cucumbers and impossible potstickers for starters and had the Curry Dan Dan noodles and Cashew chicken for entrees. Too much to eat, so got to bring some of both home. Highly recommend. Service was fantastic- Nicky was great. She even took the time to take our picture outside with the mural. Great place; we will be back!
