John Besh Opening New Restaurant On Riverwalk

Celebrity Chef John Besh To Open New Restaurant LUKE In New Downtown Hotel Later This Fall…

Chef Besh has been a fan of San Antonio for many, many years. Being an avid quail hunter, he and his wife have visited the Alamo City often and now he has decided to expand his restaurant empire a bit more by opening up LUKE on the Riverwalk soon.

He see’s this restaurant as being a throwback to the old brasserie’s and beer-halls. A comfy place where a family can feel comfortable dining without all of the pretense of high-end dining. He has assigned the post to one of his longtime chefs and business partners.

Stay tuned for more detail!
