One Star: High quality cooking

Located in San Antonio's historic Pearl District, Isidore is a stylish spot with a midcentury modern feel complete with an open kitchen and live-fire hearth. Named for the patron saint of farmers and laborers, there is a clear focus on Texas ingredients and local traditions, even incorporating Native American elements into the bread service. The menu is large, with items intended for sharing and a section dedicated to steak. Narrowing down your snack selection isn't easy, but the popcorn chicken, crispy fried with popcorn aioli and velouté, is a good bet. Cherokee tomato in a house-made kombucha lets local ingredients shine, while the dry-aged Berkshire pork chop with a 23-spice sauce is another highlight. Texas wines are also proudly shared on the list and in an optional pairing.

"Isidore lives by commitment to Texas and the ethos of place. Our meat and seafood come from local ranches and the Gulf, with a thoughtful focus on underutilized by-catch. Produce is sourced entirely from Texas farms, prioritizing small independent growers, while dishes are crafted to reflect the micro-seasonality of the land. By pairing cultivated harvests with wild ingredients that thrive in the same season, Isidore captures a uniquely Texan rhythm of flavor and sustainability."
