La Cantera

About the restaurant

*2024 Michelin Recommended*

If you find yourself dreaming of the Texas Hill Country, savory comforts, spice, and the sultry depth of a fine Burgundy, you’ll be pleased to know about Signature at La Cantera Resort & Spa.

The menu is straightforward and beguiling, featuring contemporary interpretations of classic dishes — fresher, brighter versions of traditional cuisine enlivened with unconventional Texas spirit. Gulf seafood conspires with Atlantic Coast oysters flown in fresh, and the Hill Country is well-represented year-round. Local and organic ingredients change the menu as the seasons peak and wane, but the constants are quality, flavor, artistry in the kitchen and a warm welcome when you walk in the door.

From the moment you arrive, the atmosphere sets the tone—elegant and refined, yet warm and inviting. Every detail, from the service to the presentation, reflects a clear commitment to excellence. The food is reliably exceptional, with well-balanced flavors, artful presentation, and evident care in preparation. Dishes highlight fresh, seasonal ingredients and blend classic culinary techniques with creative flair. Each plate is thoughtfully composed and layered with depth and precision. What truly sets Signature apart is its unwavering consistency. With every visit, the quality remains outstanding, the service attentive yet unobtrusive, and the overall experience genuinely memorable. In a city with an ever-evolving culinary scene, Signature continues to secure its place among the very best.

Second time at Sunny’s and we sat outside on the gorgeous patio. Can’t believe it was actually a nice breezy day in July! Pancakes are incredible, and my husband loves the french toast. Get the creme de la creme crepe you won’t regret it! Can’t wait to come back again and try it for dinner and cocktails!

I always have a great experience at Meadow, and this time was no exception. This was a business meeting so taking two colleagues there for the first time and they really enjoyed it as much as myself. Ann greeted me and took great care of us throughout the lunch. Ann's was very cordial and friendly while being very respectful to not interrupting our business conversation - she's super and big reason why I enjoy coming back to Meadow. Great experience.
