The food was delicious! Very clean and amazing waitress. The only issue we had was they gave us the wrong dessert. It was supposed to be dark chocolate tequeno instead of cheese. Would still go back! ⭐️

This exterior design is offensive. In the context of Japanese-inspired or Asian cuisine, this sign symbolizes Imperial Japan's wartime atrocities before and during World War II. The flag is comparable to the Nazi swastika. I never went back since I saw this years ago. Back then, I messaged them directly about this symbol and what it means to many Asians who were the victims of the war. It seems like either it was never taken seriously, or they do support the war crimes - which is their free will.

Honestly, Ive had worst but I wouldn’t return. The margarita was my favorite thing I ordered. We also got the wings, and the hurricane fries for an app and it was a 5/10. For entrees we got chicken sushi which let me say was only because my wife doesn’t eat fish and it was not bad but definitely not worth $18 when it’s literally chicken and fish. And lastly the miso chicken was overly salty I couldn’t eat it.

Short rib noodles were amazing!!! Challah French toast with chicken was mediocre.

What an amazing place! From the great Happy Hour cocktails & appies, to the interesting bento box & yummy short ribs noodles, Botika does not disappoint! Wonderful experience. We'll be back.
Empanadas are good. The rolls use way too much sauce and lime. Beware, rolls use a ton of nori so if you love nori and can't get enough of it then this is the place. Otherwise, yuck. It's way overpriced for the quality. The food flavors are clunky and not well balanced. Service is excellent.

Great food and service the ambiance is always good here. Our server Stephanie was friendly and funny and she gave us great recommendations for both food and cocktails . She basically had the bartender surprise us and the drinks where really good not watered down.

I really wanted to like this place. The service was okay but the food was just not it. The drinsk were also subpar. The octopus was not cooked per usual. The noodles were so salty. I wouldn't recommend this place. There are so many other less expensive better food options in san antonio.

Pretty good for an upper class dining establishment and reasonably priced!
