    Everything is exceptional at In Contrada..... the wines (and sheer variety), the warm staff, the great food, and the Hill Country/Tuscan environment with wonderful live music. It's simply sublime!

    Fantastic food and drink, beautiful location. There was a live band on Friday night. A bit understaffed so our poor waitress tried very hard but was spread too thin across too many tables.

    This was our first time at La Contrada, we live in San Angelo, TX and my daughter took me San Antonio for my birthday. The food, atmosphere, and experience was outstanding. The wine list was quite good. Can't wait to return on our next trip to San Antonio

    Absolutely, hands down, one of the most miserable dining experiences I've ever had. The outdoor dining space, which should be a highlight of dining at a vineyard, is somehow cramped and claustrophobic. And the service is practically nonexistent. The hostess was nowhere to be found for several minutes; had to find her and tell her we were waiting to be seated for our reservation. She seated us and brought us water. A mediocre musician sang too-loud covers of Elvis, George Straight and Dolly Parton. Then it took at least 10 minutes for any server to actually acknowledge our existence. When the waitress finally asked if she could get us anything, we ordered all of our food. She wrote nothing down and managed to forget to put in our entree, a pizza. We realized this 30 minutes later when asking to order desert well in advance. She pretended she hadn't forgotten and said she'd check on it. We waited another 20 minutes before my teenage girls started crying because the atmosphere was so miserable and the food so mid. This place just made everyone sad, and I ultimately told the waitress to keep the pizza and cheesecake and just charge us for what we'd eaten. Cannot stress enough how awful this experience managed to be against the backdrop of an otherwise beautiful sunset. 0/10. Would not recommend.

    In Contrada is an absolute gem! The pizza is nothing short of perfection fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The service is outstanding, with attentive and friendly staff who make you feel truly welcome. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, creating the perfect setting to enjoy a great meal with friends or family. The workers go above and beyond to ensure a wonderful experience. Whether you’re here for the wine, the food, or simply the ambiance, In Contrada never disappoints!
