About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
  • Innovative
Best Quality Daughter houses a vibrant, chic décor and new, unique Asian-American menu. In 2018, chef Jennifer Hwa Dobbertin, wanting to address the sparsity of Asian-American female chefs in South Texas, developed a new concept through a series of pop-up dinners called Best Quality Daughter with fellow chef Anne Ng and artist Jennifer Ling Datchuk. 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.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Jennifer Dobbertin

From the OpenTable editors: Chef and owner Jennifer Hwa Dobbertin realizes her vision of bringing more Asian American women chefs to South Texas at Best Quality Daughter, and it's earned her a James Beard nom and loads of local fans. Dobbertin unabashedly combines Asian and global flavors in unique dishes like salt and pepper shrimp with Thai chimichurri or rice chips with mapo hummus, resulting in this singular restaurant in the historic Mueller House that is so very San Antonio.

    The food is always incredible. It’s the time it takes some days which makes it hard for a quick lunch.

    Loved it here! Our serves Stephanie was lovely and super efficient. The “above my pay grade” gin cocktail was delicious. We really liked potstickers and smashed cucumbers and then our favourite- Coconut Tom Yum Noodles.
