Despite the heat and humidity, my wife and I chose to sit outside on the riverbank in the shade of a huge tree when we visited this restaurant for the first time. A breeze cooled us as we watche the continuous parade of people and ate delicious meals of short ribs and halibut. The short ribs were removed from the... More

In San Antonio one night for business and this was the perfect restaurant for dinner. Pleasantly situated on the Riverwalk away from the riff raff. The salmon was perfection. Service was attentive & warm. If you find yourself on the Riverwalk, I highly recommend dining here.

We stayed in the Omni hotel attached to the Canarias restaurant. Our trip included the buffet breakfast in the Canarias which was excellent with good attentive staff, and personally made omelettes. We had dinner one evening, the menu was limited, very expensive and the food was not exceptional.

Wow, I was about to give up on ever finding a good restaurant on the Riverwalk. Finally something.... Las Canarias is French. The Duck Confit was off the hook. The service was even better. What was nice about the place is that it is on the opposite side of the river from the masses! You have the atmosphere without the... More

The chef doing the omelettes was AWESOME!! Everything else was less than spectacular. Just a very odd selection and not much to choose from. For being as pricey as it is you would think there would be a much larger selection of normal breakfast fare. There wasn't even pancakes on the buffet?!

Lots of great restaurants on the San Antonio Riverwalk. I think this is the best. What a perfect evening. Great ambiance whether outside on the elevated patio overlooking the Riverwalk, or indoors in a wonderful dining room with Riverwalk views. What wonderful, friendly, accommodating service! Easy parking (free valet parking with validation). Fantastic upscale food, and very nice wine list.... More

My wife and I visited this restaurant last evening based on Trip Advisor reviews. Booked via Open Table. We were not at all disappointed. I give it a 4-star instead of a 5 only because it was not the best restaurant we've ever eaten at although I would rank it near the top of the "very-good" category. Service was 5-star

If you only have 24 hours on the Riverwalk, Las Canarias is a MUST! Forget the others.... Go straight to the best. We had drinks earlier in the day to discuss dinner.... And we were already there! Ask for "Joseph" as he knows where the 'Lovers Table' is... Ask for it. We made reservations at 9:00 and Joseph was waiting... More
