Overall great experience. The waiters and chefs are all students from the culinary school and had great attitude / service. It’s definitely not the same as fine dining but for the amount of food I got and ingredients they put in, it was definitely good value for money!

BEST Dining experience in San Antonio! I absolutely LOVED everything. We went there to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday and we were greeted by such a friendly and welcoming staff with smiles. We had the best seat next to the kitchen. It was great seeing the chef and students working together. I could see the excitement and passion in every dish they made. Our waiter was a fantastic guy named Brian. He was very cheerful, attentive, and helpful with recommendations. Sommelier Fabian was also fantastic! He was cheerful, attentive and educational…lol. I told him we were celebrating a bday and he surprised us with champagne. We had such a beautiful time engaging in conversation with both Brian and Fabian. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for making this experience a special one.

In all our travels and experiencing fine dining , we have never had an experience that would match our amazing evening at Savor. The restaurant was a smaller space than we had anticipated, and we were seated at the table closest to the kitchen. Normally I would not have accepted such a seating but having a premonition ( having read about the culinary school and the training process) I accepted. As part of the restaurant experience we had the best seats in the house. We could not be more grateful in that we got to engage rather regularly throughout the evening with Chef Will, and Sommelier Fabian. Chef Will has a quiet and yet firm approach that I could see the students embraced. His organizational and leadership teaching skills are seen throughout the back kitchen process and plating of food. He was calm and engaged in the stress of teaching students in getting the food out, and yet was seen smiling through out the evening. Sommelier Fabian is outstanding in his knowledge of wines his palet for pairing foods , and his friendly personality making talking about wines a delight. His creation of this seasons menu of a fusion of Italian and Asian flavors works!! I highly recommend the premium wine paring. We were particularly interested in the pairing of the Trivento White Malbec. Our waiter, Jose was appropriately engaging in conversation, knowledgeable about food selections and wine paring, and held pleasant and endearing life stories. In particular with all three of us in medicine and the fact Jose has switched his career from nursing to culinary arts/services, we had wonderful and insightful conversations about the challenges one faces in both medicine and in the restaurant industry. We could hear and feel the passion Jose has for his training and career in the culinary arts.

Quite possibly the best 4 course meal I’ve ever had! My favorite dish was the risotto! The chocolate tres leches cake was a whole experience and the lavender churros are the most authentic and best tasting in San Antonio.

We visited this place recently and tried a variety of their pastries. All of the food was absolutely delicious! They have talented students there and their chef professor/teacher is doing a great job. We will definitely be back again!

This place had such delicious foods! It’s very clean inside. They have outstanding customer service. Never once was our water empty. Each course of food came at very appropriate times. Michael was our server and made excellent food recommendations.

What a wonderfully delightful dining experience. Savor is an extension of the CIA, and an opportunity for the students to apply the skills learned during their two years with the culinary institute. The prix fixe menu is delicious, the ambiance warm and inviting, and our server, Harper (a student graduating at the end of December 2022) was friendly, knowledgeable, and engaged without being intrusive. Cheers!

If you love food, this is a must. If you expect perfection, you’ll be disappointed. If you expect obsession and passion for the joy of food, this is your place to be. I say this as someone who loves food as much as life.

I would not recommend this restaurant unless you’re coming to support the school. The food, although very eye appealing, is lacking taste tremendously. The service made up for it from some of the servers but some still need work, they looked too uncomfortable. The price of our meal wouldn’t be such a problem if it tasted exquisite but since it didn’t the meal was way over priced. My husband and I will not be returning, but glad we experienced it; such a beautiful scene and location.
