It\u2019s been a rough year for the San Antonio restaurant scene. <\/p>\n

During just the past few months, we lost beloved institutions that served up delicious fare in our fair city \u2014\u00a0some that had been doing so for decades.<\/p>\n

Some of those shuttered dining spots even won accolades from our publication and others, routinely landing on short lists for their innovative menus and gorgeous settings.<\/p>\n

From cozy neighborhood pubs to elevated Asian and Mexican cuisine, these restaurants represented some of the best this city had to offer. Here are 31 of the restaurants we have lost so far this year.<\/p>\n

1913 S Flores St.<\/p>\n
