    Fine dining on the Riverwalk Apr 25, 2008
I recently went up to San Antonio to visit some friends and I had been craving a gourmet meal, but I had not been able to put my finger on what I wanted. We went to several restaurants around San Antonio that didn't match my expectations. Finally I found Boudro's on the Riverwalk and I left completely satisfied.
My friends started out with the guacamole dip. It is made fresh at your table and was very good. I got the wild field mushrooms which were absolutely delightful. The mushrooms come with grilled baked polenta, goat cheese, roma tomatoes and chipolte-thyme demi-glaze. The flavorful goat cheese contrasted nicely with the taste of the mushrooms.
For my main course, I had the mesquite grilled Texas quail. After my appetizer, I knew whatever dish I ordered would have to be incredibly delicious to keep pace with what I had already tasted. I definitely was not disappointed! The quail was stuffed with wild mushrooms, roasted corn, dried apricot, apples and poblanos. It was served with a side of vegetables and roasted potatoes. All of this was cooked to absolute perfection.
The appetizer was $9.50 and the quail was $23.00 which I thought was very reasonable for such a fine meal. The quality of the food combined with the relaxing Riverwalk atmosphere made for a wonderful dining experience. I'll definitely be visiting Boudro's again next time I am in San Antonio.
