Do many cities have a one-stop car wash, laundromat, bar (with kiddie playlot) and burger emporium all rolled into one? We thought not. At The Cove, the diner has the choice of eating in all of the above except, perhaps, the car wash. And eclectic doesn't even begin to describe the menu, swinging as it does from its SOL (Sustainable Organic Local) burgers and organic hummus on whole-wheat flatbread to the vegetarian “Bella Burger.” Sophisticated salads such as the warm beet with goat cheese are uptown for such a lowdown location. And though we aren’t bowled over by the “Blue Bison” burger, we would go back for the fish tacos and the Food Channel-touted atmosphere---that and maybe to get the car washed. Bands draw fans to the bar nightly, the beer list is prodigious, but the organic-sustainable wine list is the real surprise, perhaps spurred by the wine tasting held every third Thursday.

The Cove

I want to say that the regular customers at The Cove are anything but "San Antonio’s mellower set." My family found the restaurant crowded with patrons who saved entire rows of seats without even having ordered food. The food, while good, is overpriced. We are not going back.
