Stepping into Grille 254, nestled quietly within the leafy expanse of La Cantera Resort and Spa, feels like slipping into a place where relaxed comfort meets thoughtful hospitality. The pace here is unhurried, inviting you to settle in whether you’re pausing after a round of golf or simply seeking a casual late afternoon respite. Large windows frame sweeping views of the golf course beyond, letting in natural light that complements the warm, inviting interior without overwhelming the calm mood.
This is a place where quiet conversation and the occasional cheer from the sports bar area coexist with the gentle hum of good company and well-crafted drinks. There’s an easygoing rhythm to the scene—a hint of lively chatter balanced by a peaceful vibe that encourages lingering a little longer.
The menu feels like an extension of this balance, approachable yet elevated in its simplicity. Whether it’s the spicy sweetness of a honey habanero fried chicken sandwich or the comfort of a grilled cheese sandwich that surprises you with its depth, each dish feels thoughtfully crafted to pair well with a cold draft or a creatively mixed cocktail. Specialty drinks, from tequila sunrises to inventive fusions, add a refreshing touch to the experience without overpowering it, perfect for a sunny afternoon or evening unwind.

This place has the view of the golf course. I ordered a club sandwich and a salad. It was the perfect lunch. The waitress was both friendly and professional. The bartender created the drinks I asked for which were a tequila sunrise, tequila moonrise, and a fusion of the two which I called the La Cantera Eclipse. All three drinks were amazing! The ambiance was peaceful and enjoyable.

It's a cool place for a late afternoon happy hour. It doesn't get too busy but I was out of there before 7pm. It's a full service restaurant, with a full bar, wine, and about 20 craft beers on tap - most of them brewed in Texas. Monday through Saturday from 3p to 7p, they have $5 wells, $5 drafts, $7 burgers and appetizers. I'd hate to see what their prices are like AFTER happy hour - OUCH! The patio/balcony kicks @ss, but there's no table service out there. However, if you order food at the bar, they will bring it out to you. Awesome views of the golf course and it's up on a hill, so on a clear day you can see the city skyline WAAAYYY off in the distance. The signage to find the actual building is lacking, but if you use Google Maps (DON'T use Apple Maps!) it will get you to the parking lot and then you can use the walking feature of Google Maps to locate which building it is. There are a couple of non descript buildings here that all look the same. But again, Google Maps got me exactly where I needed to be. Didn't have food, just drinks.

Place has really nice views. Food was good, tomato soup stood out. Service is prompt Perhaps a floor mopping here and there a few times. Worth the visit!

I can see and taste why this place gets great reviews. They can take a simple grill cheese sandwich and bring it up a few notches. Absolutely delicious. I can only imagine how the hamburgers taste like. I can only tell you how my kids were smiling once they were finished. They also said this belong on their top five list and absolutely deserves a repeat. I concur.

Find Grille 254 Tucked away inside the La Cantera Resort and Spa. Server was very kind and attentive. Food was tasty and the drinks were perfect for a hot summer day! Great golf course view and of NE SA!

Awesome location! If you can score a window seat...do it. The views are amazing. My co-worker and I had a relaxing, delicious meal. We got the nachos with gound beef and jalapenos slices to start. I ordered the honey habanero fried chicken sandwich, which was tasty, but needs to be more habaneroy. He ordered the blackened Cajun burger. He said it was really good. Their iced tea was lack-luster...why don't restaurants brew their own tea??? It isn't that hard to do! To end this meal, we got their amazing strawberry layer cake...it was divine! Coffee was good too.

Everything is absolutely perfect for a chill happy hour. Service, staff, and food were all wonderful. The only downfall at the time was low on beer selection due to vendor issues. The next time we went, all the tap beer was out. Next time we'll call ahead...because we really enjoy the place.

Stayed at the resort over Christmas break, and this was one of the restaurants on site. It was very relaxed and we were some of the only people. It was perfect. The beer and food was delicious and our waiter was super cool. Thanks!
