Luther's Cafe (Closed Permanently)

(83 Ratings)
San Antonio Institution on the gay strip
This place is all about the hamburgers and they've been serving them up since 1949, well before this was the heart of gay San Antonio. Now it's gay-owned and operated and conveniently located - wanna grab some grease after the club? This is your spot!

It’s been closed for months. The owners for some reason keep the website active.

The Waiter Steven

Our waiter Steven lied and told guest(random guy to us) at a table next to us that we only tipped him $2. The guest decided to confront my daughter as we were leaving hence an instant argument! We tipped Steven our waiter over $50 and yes we have our credit card Receipts to prove that our waited lied. The situation went from 0 to 100 and there was nothing to keep this other guest from shooting us ,assaulting us or causing harm to us all over waiter Steven lying and saying our table only gave him a $2 tip. So I guess the wait staff at Luther’s has decided our life is only worth $2 in the hands of somebody else... This could have been deadly for my family and I all of a flat out lie!

We were a party of 6 and most of us had our own individual tickets. The waiter Steven waited on us for the evening. He forgot most of our requests but we didn’t complain. The waiter was obviously drunk as we got further in the evening. Our entire party tipped well despite the bad service. Steven apparently told the other table he was not happy with our table and said we only tipped $2 for our whole table. This was not true because each of us tipped $10 and there was 6 in our party. However, the guy at the other table started getting an attitude and put his finger in my daughters face. This was very unprofessional and frankly this whole situation almost turned very ugly. This entire establishment is unorganized and unprofessional. The waiter is petty for talking to another table about us and lying nonetheless. It’s interesting that the guy at the other table didn’t say anything to anyone else but my daughter. He was targeting black people because this entire establishment doesn’t feel like black lives matter!!

not again

When traveling I always try spend the gay dollar at local establishments. This is my 3rd trip to Luther’s this year and it keeps getting worse. Beer, warm. Onion rings cold and tasted like cardboard and only 4 on the plate. Neither are difficult things to make!
