Ostra is a high-energy restaurant featuring the freshest seafood flown in daily from around the world. Ostra, Spanish for “oyster,” is located along the banks of the famed Riverwalk where guests may dine indoors or al fresco. Executive Chef John Brand uses fish that have been raised and harvested in sustainable circumstances in his approach to ‘lifestyle cuisine.’ His signature Mokara Tasting Menu features weekly specials created from ingredients from Brand’s local sources such as Bluebonnet Farms, Oak Hill Farms, Sandy Oaks Olive Orchard, Texas Quail Farm and more.

Under the leadership of new executive chef Robert Cantu, Ostra rose to No. 1 on my list of the Top 10 River Walk restaurants, with a dinner service that includes a Denver steak with broiled lobster; an elegant buttered halibut with saffron sauce and caviar; and char-grilled oysters with shrimp butter. Ostra shifts gears in the morning, with a menu that covers breakfast tacos, a smoked salmon croissant, avocado toast, an American breakfast and a three-egg kitchen-sink omelet. By night, it’s the best restaurant on the River Walk.

Known as a seafood destination on the River Walk since it opened more than 10 years ago, Ostra continues to meet (and exceed) expectations. The house margarita brings back memories of the late and much-lamented Las Canarias, while the range of dishes offers flavors for dedicated seafood aficionados and those who still want something more meat-centric or vegetable forward. The range of vegetable dishes throughout the menu marks an evolution from the restaurant’s early days—and a good one at that.

Ostra is located at the beautiful Mokara Hotel and Spa, across the river from the equally beautiful Omni La Mansión Del Rio Hotel, two of the most breathtaking hotels on the San Antonio Riverwalk. Between the two hotels and the enchanting Riverwalk views, Ostra is a lovely restaurant to take it all in. Ostra is open for breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner with a focus on quality seafood.
