Bohanan's Prime Steak and Seafood: A Local Gem for Celebrations
From the moment we walked into Bohanan's, the atmosphere exuded sophistication and warmth. The attentive service, led by our knowledgeable waiter, Steven, immediately put us at ease and set the tone for a memorable evening.
Our dining experience began with a classic starter, the wedge salad. It was a refreshing blend of crisp iceberg lettuce, creamy blue cheese dressing, crispy bacon bits, and diced tomatoes—a simple yet satisfying way to kick off our meal. The freshly baked bread and butter that accompanied it added a comforting touch.
To accompany our salads, my wife ordered a blackberry vodka sour, a beautifully crafted cocktail that balanced the sweetness of blackberries with the zing of vodka. It was a delightful choice for her birthday celebration.
For our main courses, I opted for the 12 oz New York strip, cooked to a perfect medium, while my wife chose the New Zealand Tasman king salmon. The New York strip was a carnivore's dream, perfectly seared to lock in the juices and flavor. The Tasman king salmon was a standout, with its flaky texture and delicate smokiness—it truly showcased the skill of the kitchen.
The side dishes, lobster creamed corn and macaroni and cheese, were generously portioned and packed with flavor. The lobster creamed corn was a delightful combination of sweet corn and succulent lobster, while the macaroni and cheese provided the ultimate comfort food fix.
For dessert, we indulged in the bread pudding à la mode. The warm, comforting bread pudding paired perfectly with the local ice cream from Justin's, a beloved San Antonio institution with over 40 years of history. It was a sweet and fitting end to our evening.
If you're looking for a classic and elegant spot to celebrate a special occasion in San Antonio, Bohanan's is a choice that won't disappoint.
Bohanan's was a wonderful experience! I took my husband here for his birthday and it was our first time at the restaurant. I told them it was his birthday when making the reservation and they pulled out all the stops. Every staff member we interacted with wished him a happy birthday and they provided a complimentary champagne toast. The staff was extremely friendly, professional, and polite. Everything we ordered was fantastic from the drinks, to the escargot appetizer, truffle fries, mac and cheese, dry-aged steak, and red snapper. We did not have room for dessert, but we saw others order some and they performed a table-side fire show when preparing it. Sure it was pricey, but it's a steak house and the food was well worth it. We will definitely be back for our next celebration!
Decided to have a fancy date night. This is the perfect place for one. The service was great, atmosphere was nice. The food was delicious, however, I was expecting the taste of the steak to be out of this world, especially for the price, but it was average. All the other food we ate was top notch though.
My first time at Bohanan’s was an unforgettable one, a true 5 star experience that was worth every penny. Our waiter Danny was excellent throughout the night, and the food was everything you’d expect from a restaurant of this prestige. I would definitely recommend this restaurant for any special occasion.
Of all the fine dining restaurants we have been, Bohanan’s is at or near the top of the list. We thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience here. Our waiter, Juan, was amazingly attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. In fact, all the staff at Bohanan’s are so friendly as you make your way to and from your table. All the food we had from start to finish ranged from great to amazing, especially the buttery goodness of their Japanese A5 wagyu strip steak. This restaurant has a sophisticated elegant ambiance and I highly recommend dining here.
The best food I had in San Antonio. The salmon and the prime rib were amazing even at an 830 reservation.
You need to make a reservation as the wait for this restaurant is always long. So worth it
Have a prickly pear margarita. They are awesome!
The wife and I were out for date night and we decided to head back to Bohanan's for dinner. Same great food (ribeye dinner & shrimp dinner), but service was just a tad slow and extended our dinner time. We weren't in a rush, so we were ok. Also, pre-dinner drinks were on point. Atmosphere there was also a bit louder than normal this time. Nothing against small kids, but just hadn't seen them running around before. All in all a great meal and excellent company. As is our tradition, we wrapped up dinner with a shared bananas foster, cooked using flambe technique! It was fantastic as usual. After dinner, we headed downstairs to the lounge area and enjoyed a few songs from the live band playing (Johnny P and the Wise Guys). Great time!

Upstairs and down stairs have 2 different types of atmospheres. I enjoyed the upstairs area. I live in San Antonio and this is one of the better over all experiences in town. Everything from the food, the staff, to the amount of time the whole process takes was exceptional. Waitress payed very close attention to detail. Valet parking is 16 bucks. Plan on coming back.
This place is simply amazing! James took care of us when we dined in and he was awesome! The food is so tasty and made just right! We had the wagyu steak, red snapper, truffle steak frites and heirloom salad. We had the creme brûlée and cheesecake for dessert. This place is a must try!
We had just arrived in downtown San Antonio and were hungry. It was late and so many places were closed. We usually don't go to this kinda fancy restaurant, but we were so hungry and tired....We were welcomed, the server was excellent. The steaks and burgers were delicious, and the wine the server helped me select was perfect. Just so happened that this evening they had a special Christmas tree lighting on the patio, and we enjoyed the festivity. Great place, highly recommend!

Recently had “date night” at Bohanan's. Bohanan's offers a truly remarkable dining experience that excels in every aspect. As soon as you step inside, you are greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that exudes class and sophistication. The dim lighting, plush seating, and tasteful decor create the perfect setting for an unforgettable evening. The star of the show is the exceptional culinary journey that awaits you. Their prime steaks are cooked to perfection, bursting with flavor and offering a melt-in-your-mouth experience. The seafood options are equally impressive, expertly prepared and always fresh. What sets Bohanan's apart is not just the exceptional food, but also the impeccable service provided by the attentive and knowledgeable staff. They are well-versed in the menu and go above and beyond to make your dining experience seamless and enjoyable. Adding to the enchanting atmosphere is the delightful piano jazz that serenades you throughout the evening. The live music perfectly complements the dining experience, creating a memorable night whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply treating yourself to a luxurious evening out. In conclusion, Bohanan's is a culinary gem that delivers an extraordinary dining experience from start to finish, allowing you to indulge your senses and create cherished memories. Enjoy!
Bohanan’s Prime Steaks is a solid five stars as a steakhouse in our opinion. The best steakhouse in the city and perhaps anywhere. The steaks are absolutely first rate the service is superb and the atmosphere is as nice as any restaurant. If you are a steak lover, find time to give these guys a try.
The food is delicious! I wouldn't recommend bringing small children. The place is very elegant and more appropriate for young adults and up. I think this is a perfect place to celebrate anniversaries and graduations.
Very good steak. The food in general was very good as well as the service. It is a little pricey. You do need a reservation and dressed properly to go upstairs. The first floor is still great, although the menu is limited. The atmosphere is very romantic, and it is a good place for a date night, or you can just sit at the bar and have a few drinks. A very good restaurant/bar overall.
Excellent dining experience. Delicious food with fine professional service in pleasant surroundings. A special place to enjoy a celebratory evening.
Unexpected, super fancy, last minute date night(with 7 yr old in tow). This was a very last minute reservation we had here. We wanted to check out the food options and service before an important dinner here a few nights later.
The service was good, the wait staff was attentive, the food was great.
I was just a little thrown off by how fancy this was. I wouldn’t have taken my tired 7 yr if I paid any attention to previous reviews.
Overall, come here if you want to impress a client or date. Otherwise, I’d skip it.

As we entered beautiful Bohanan’s we were greeted by classic elegance. A live jazz band smoothed out the ambiance. Once upstairs I felt like royalty on parade as every employee welcomed us as respected friends.
Our waiter made recommendations when we asked and was very friendly, respectful and helpful.
Our steaks were cooked perfectly medium rare with delectable sides of sautéed spinach, lobster creamed corn, amazing Demi glaze portobellos, and lump crab meat.
This meal was a part of our business trip, where our team seeks out some of the finest dining experiences, and Bohanan’s stands out with exceptional service, unique atmosphere from times long past, and amazing cuisine.
Another thing: we were told the steaks can take awhile to prepare, up to 45 minutes. Despite this, I never once considered the time as we enjoyed cocktails, delicious appetizers and conversation. Try to plan to have enough time to enjoy the service and don’t be in a hurry. From this visit, my first time at Bohanan’s I sincerely hope it will not be my last and I would highly recommend the experience if you have the time and money!
My husband and I had a wonderful 6 year anniversary here. The food was delicious. And the service was phenomenal. Anna was our main server and she was very good! I didn’t catch the name of everyone else that was filling our waters and bringing out our food. But there were a lot of people waiting on us. My only disappointment was my 7 oz. filet. My husband upgraded to a wagyu which was beyond delicious but my regular steak was not better than any of the other steakhouses in SA (Bob’s, Myron’s, Kirby’s), in fact it wasn’t as good as other steak houses, and was slightly cold. But everything else was perfect. Next time, I think I would order fish instead.
