Bohanan’s is located in one of the most vibrant parts of downtown San Antonio, in the East Houston Street entertainment district. The restaurant, with a chic atmosphere and old-world charm, has developed a strong following with the downtown work/live crowd, local jazz fans and people who have a penchant for high-end craft cocktails. But steak is the main draw at Bohanan’s. The restaurant was the first in the United States to use Akaushi beef. Executive chef/owner Mark Bohanan and staff cook everything mesquite-grilled, Texas style, over an open flame. Yahoo! Travel named Bohanan’s among the top 10 U.S. steakhouses.
