Nationally respected chef of New American cuisine creates dishes as fashionable as the ambience.

In Short
Modernist decor features concrete, plate-glass and curving white curtains--a hipper twist on most Riverwalk eateries. Chef Bruce Auden's menu involves bold combinations in familiar dishes, such as smoked pork chop with quick-cooked vegetables and a dollop of curried sauce. Seared tuna, caramelized pineapple and chili broth are topped with foie gras. English toffee pudding swims in a pool of thin custard for an indulgent ending.

Bruce Auden's award-winning BIGA ON THE BANKS is located in a spectacular setting in downtown San Antonio's modern International Center. Overlooking a romantic tree-canopied bend in the river, the historic and the new find common ground in Biga's dynamic re-emergence with ultra contemporary cuisine propelling San Antonio's recent ascent to a new level of River Walk dining. Gourmet Magazine named Biga one of the five best restaurants in Texas. Fine dining has never meant "fussy" to Chef Auden. Biga's ambiance is casual and relaxed - San Antonio style. Auden's celebrated culinary background, coupled with creative and energetic design, has marked Biga on the Banks as one of Texas' truly outstanding restaurants.
