The cozy dining room and twenty six foot bar are framed by a floating botanical spice illuminated with soft lights. The Danish wishbone chairs, steel accents and warm wood tones are juxtaposed against minimalist art, custom concrete tiles, natural pigments, and uniquely sourced ceramics from Latin America and Asia. Led by acclaimed chef, Elizabeth Johnson, who helped the City of San Antonio receive a UNESCO City of Gastronomy designation. Pharm Table is an mecca for healthful farm to table cuisine. Removing inflammatory ingredients like wheat, dairy, refined sugar and processed foods, the restaurant focuses instead on fresh farm produce and meats carefully sourced from regenerative farmers.

    Pharm Table is our favorite place to dine when visiting San Antonio. It is rare to find a restaurant that cares so deeply about the sourcing of their food and drinks, and the presentation and taste of everything we’ve tried there has been outstanding. The service is fantastic as well. Finally, we appreciated meeting the owner who checked in with us several times to make sure all was well. Highly recommend!

    While I was expecting the menu to be very interesting and unusual I did not realize what small portions for $100 a person. However I’m keeping in mind that each dish was prepared fresh at the time you order every vegetable was fresh ,you could tell it had just been chopped or sautéed , and the spices were very different from anything you would find here in San Antonio. So I think keeping those things in mind it was an excellent experience.

    They were flexible with my reservation as our group was running late from a convention. That was great. My favorite feature they offer is half serving sizes for most of their entrees. This was so nice it allowed my wife and I to try different entrees and share.

    The ahi tuna is my recommendation for a starter course. Paired with a beautiful wine. Perfect! Next I ordered the braised beef short ribs and it was amazing! My spouse ordered the scallops and risotto and that was the best risotto I’ve tasted. Ever. Amazing staff and atmosphere! I only have one wish. And that’s to have cocktails available. Only a beautiful wine list, sake, and a few light beers. Definitely will be coming back!
