The Leaning Pear is an exceptional restaurant in Wimberley, Texas, renowned for its Hill Country-inspired cuisine. It stands out as one of the finest dining establishments in the area, consistently exceeding expectations. When envisioning the essence of the Hill Country dining experience, The Leaning Pear effortlessly embodies and surpasses those expectations.

Run by husband-wife duo Rachel and David Buchanan, the restaurant, which looks like a lavish cottage retreat, is nestled into the rolling hills, providing the perfect backdrop for food that is locally inspired and sourced, with an inclination towards seasonal flavors at their most vibrant. There’s even a bountiful herb garden in the middle of the huge patio deck, lending luster and aroma to dishes and drinks.

By working with familiar, timeless dishes and flavors, the kitchen upgrades comfort food with dishes like the wood-fired “Zucchini Padre” pizza with zucchini-basil pesto, cherry tomato, corn, garlic confit, and fresh mozzarella. Or the chicken and grits, which finds a succulent roasted chicken breast nestled atop a bed of green chile-bacon grits. Or the luscious and smoky grilled hanger steak with roasted poblano-cotija crema, corn, tomatoes, black beans, and funky huitlacoche. Wash it all down with a quenching limeade or a local Texas beer.

Hours:

Tuesday – Saturday: 11:00 am – 9:00 pm

Sunday: 11:00 am – 3:00 pm

Closed Mondays, as are many of the Wimberley restaurants.
