We had dinner at the Southerleigh and the waiter there mentioned that Mon Chou Chou was their sister restaurant; we actually went to BMCC for a cocktail after dinner and after checking out the menu made plans to come back the following night! We got the escargot and the baked scallops to start with- both were delicious but the scallops were to die for, I could just eat those for dinner lol! For entrees I tried to convince my husband to get something different so I could try it but we ended up both getting the rabbit and tagliatelle in mustard cream sauce. It was so good! The rabbit was tender and honestly tasted a lot like turkey to me, but with that amazing sauce it was delicious. We had a few cocktails which were all tasty except the Cecil- I'm sure it's my fault for not knowing most of the ingredients but it tasted like a martini glass full of cucumber vodka and was a bit much for me! Over all it was delicious; service was pleasant, and I would go back to try more dishes!

There is no other French restaurant that can compete with Brasserie in San Antonio. Starting with the outdoor decor, as I approached the restaurant, I forgot I was in SA and was instead transported back to my last visit in Paris. While Brasserie does not have chairs to sit out front like they do in Paris, with the heat in SA, that is understandable. Plus, with the location, it would be almost impossible. I have nothing but positive things to say about our experience. We came for brunch around 10 and it was not too busy, however, by 11:30-12:00 it was quite packed so I do suggest making reservations which are not hard to get as I made reservations the week of. We started with the Le Parisian and added on a chocolate croissant. We followed that by the escargot, ham & cheese omelette, the raclette as well as the pot de creme. Everything was delicious and our server Reagan was excellent!

We recently went to Brasserie Mon Chou Chou. The food was great. The service was awesome. Very thorough and our wait staff and gave us very good suggestions. I had the Filet De Cabillaud, Sauce Hollandaise with Crab Meuniere. The portion was perfect. Not too big and not too small. The cod had an excellent flavor and the hollandaise sauce added more flavor to complement the cod. The soft lump crab was good and was not overpowering or fishy. This probably 3rd time, and my wife and I have been coming to this restaurant every year for our anniversary.

We picked this place to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. French restaurants are our favorite so wanted to give it a try while in town. It is super bright and airy inside! The decorations suit the restaurant well. The booths were super comfortable. Service was excellent as expected. We asked lots of questions and got some great recommendations. The champagne recommended was fabulous. For food we tried: oysters, the raclette cheese appetizer with bread, and split steak frites. Oysters were fresh. The raclette was incredibly tasty. It was our first time trying raclette. We're from Wisconsin and know cheese, it was incredible! After these appetizers we decided to split our main mean. The steak was sooooo juicy and flavorful. Couldn't have been any better. Fries were perfect as well. So glad my husband talked me into trying an espresso martini and the coffee dessert! As far as the martini, it wasn't the best one I've ever had but it was above average! Everything you'd expect from one. The desert was like chocolate pudding either a slight coffee taste. Amazing! Will definitely come back when we're in town :)

06 Jul 2024 We parked on Elmira and walked up to Pearl. Hungry and weren't quite sure what we wanted. We came across Mon Chou Chou, perused the outside menu and went in. I knew it would be good because the mysterious Ryan M. enjoys this place. Ha, ha. Anyway, the husband had the steak and eggs. Comes with bacon and the country potatoes. I had the Parisian omelette (ham and gruyere) . Also served with potatoes and what I call 'good weeds'. He stuck with water, me coffee. The coffee is very reasonably priced at $2.75 and is tasty. Surprising in this day and age because iced tea has hit $4-$5 in some places. Bummer. The steak was perfectly medium, my omelette so pretty and smooth. Neither dish was overly seasoned. Just fine. Husband indulged in the pineapple tart for dessert. Topped with vanilla ice cream. I could only do a couple of bites. If I'd had room, I would have gone with the crème brûlée. My favorite. The server was great. There when needed, pleasant, unobtrusive service. We will be back.

This was the perfect dining experience to celebrate our anniversary c/o my hunnie. If you would like a new experience then try Parisian cuisine at Brasserie Mon Chou Chou. Our visit definitely felt like a culinary escape. The their staff was so welcoming and attentive. We were told to make reservations well in advance due to their popularity.

Took my French girlfriend here while we were on vacation. She absolutely loved it and praised how authentic the food felt. Dish after dish led to her telling me stories of meals at her moms. Definitely worth the try guys.

I went to Mon Chou Chou twice in one week, since I was only in San Antonio for a few days. The first visit, I was so mesmerized by the food and all the amazing flavors I did not even think of taking pictures! Here is a summary of both visits: * Monday dinner - was very intimate, not too busy, quiet with just a hint of French music playing. My friend and I wanted to make the most of it, so we ordered a few things to share: charcuterie plate (highly recommend), Ravioles Gratinee (to die for), the mushroom risotto (was a bit soupy for my taste, but good), and then a bunch of sides: green beans, fries, lentils and cauliflower gratin - all absolutely delicious! I was full, so no dessert for me, but my friend got the Creme Brûlée and said it was amazing! *Wednesday dinner: completely different ambiance! It was popping and loud, full of people clearly enjoying themselves and their food! My group was quite unfamiliar with French food, so I suggested a few things to start. Assiette de fromages (7 different cheeses), served with baguette and French butter! Everyone enjoyed it, and personally I was in Heaven! Then for the meals, 3 got the duck, 2 got the fish, 1 got the Braised Beef cheeks and I got the chicken Cordon Bleu! We also got a few sides to share. My dish was delightful and transported me back home after just the first bite! Fries were perfection again. I had to skip on dessert because I was too full, but the few who got some really enjoyed it! Definitely worth adding to your list of restaurants to try if you have not done so already. Additional Note: I know one of the chefs and he is one of the best!

Knowing my brother and sister in love would be in town and celebrating our anniversary early, I made reservations @brasseriemonchouchou through Ryan. As always, he always roll out the red carpet and we have a phenomenal experience. Hubby and I had complimentary champagne and Charcuterie plate for all to share. We had the East Coast Oystera and Escargot to start. Dad had Lemonade, Hubby had Sazerac, I had Mexican Buck, and Brother had a Merlot. 4 of us had Duck Confit. The skin was the best and super crispy. Sister in love had the Lobster Bisque. Hubby and Dad shared the Branzino. Robert was attentive and took good care of us! We had the Creme Brulee as a sweet ending!

My family and I booked reservations for a dinner at Brasserie Mon Chou Chou for a birthday and it was well worth it as this is easily the best French restauraunt in San Antonio. Booking a reservation is also highly recommended. The Pearl has a lot of great restauraunts, but this was easily my favorite place during my trips to San Antonio. It is a restauraunt with a more formal and dimly lit ambiance and it is perfect for any special occassion. The service and food was everything I was hoping for and was a 10/10 experience. My favorites were the Escargots ($16 for 6), Gratinee Lyonnaise ($9 for a Cup), Confit ($28), Le Steak ($39). The desserts were also amazing as we shared the Strudel $11 and Creme Brulee ($9). Being from San Francisco, the prices for everything was incredibly reasonable and great value for what you get. The Gratinee Lyonnaise which is a french onion soup was soooo good. It is $9 for a cup and you can get a bowl for a larger size, but the cup is already huge and filling. They are very generous with the cheese and it has an amazing gooey texture. The soup was amazing and very filling. I had to get the escargots because there isn't a ton of opportunities to eat snail and they were absolutely worth it with how soft and buttery they were. The baguette on the side is definitely nice to have as well. I personally got the Duck Confit and the skin was so crispy and so were the potatoes. This dish was absolutely worth $28 and the duck was incredibly tender. Absolutely a must get on their menu. I tried a little bit of their steak as well and I was blown away. This was a better steak than most steak houses I have been to and the steak was so juicy and tender. The fries I think could have been crispier and fried longer, but that didn't take away from how good the steak was. I could write a novel about how good the entrees are, but it really was an amazing experience and the strudel and creme brulee were some of the best desserts I had during my trip. Brasserie Mon Chou Chou excels at everything that you want from an authentic French restauraunt experience. From great service, to a great dining environment, and amazing high quality food. This was the best restauraunt I've been to in San Antonio personally.
