Boiler House at Pearl is a true Texas original. Situated in the historic Pearl Brewery complex on the San Antonio River Walk, this wine-centric restaurant occupies the former “boiler house” which powered the adjacent brewery. Lead by Executive Chef Alberto "Beto" Gutierrez, the menu focuses on grilled items from local farms and markets, with a focus on “Texas ranch-style” cuisine. These delicacies are paired with extraordinary wines from around the world (available by the glass, bottle and “to-go”), full bar, live music and a casual yet energetic atmosphere. The unique list of wines boasts some of the lowest prices in the area.

The restaurant incorporates various private dining areas suitable for private or corporate functions and an expansive outdoor patio area where guests can enjoy dining alfresco. We can host groups anywhere from 9 up to 290 guests in our unique, flexible private event spaces.

    Everything about the Boiler House was amazing! Our server was phenomenal and had great recommendations. The menu was clearly labeled for those with allergies. My only regret was not going for dinner too!

    Appetizers came out fast and were good. Entrees took nearly 40 minutes due to screwup by waiter or kitchen, then proteins were not edible. Good French fries. Complained to waitress who obviously was aware she or the kitchen screwed up badly and were offered a free dessert. Told them no thanks. $322.00 and an hour later wasted. Bar scene is good. Appetizers good. Skip the entrees.

    Our server, Darren, was outstanding. He explained the menu very effectively. He answered all of our questions and he was extraordinarily pleasant. Top rate job. We really enjoyed the restaurant. The decor, food and service were all exemplary.

    Steak was overcooked but was too hungry to send back. Service/atmosphere is good but food wasn’t anything to be really desired.
