Reviews of Out-of-Town Restaurants

These are links to reviews of restaurants, of all types, located outside San Antonio. The blog posts reviewing them are found on The Other Curmudgeon.
The names of the best ones appear in yellow.

 

Since Zomato.com stopped covering the United States (and every other place in the world other than India and Dubai), the links below no longer work. If you really want to read any of my 700 reviews of restaurants formerly posted there, you can click on this link and absent-mindedly click your way through the listings, which appear to be in reverse-chronological order:
 
Additional reviews and comments, redolent of my trademark arrogant, snotty attitude, but generally more concise than the ones you'll find on this blog, are posted on Zomato.com for the restaurants listed below.
