The pan-Asian menu includes Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese and Thai food, all reliably good. Sushi is available whenever the sushi chef is in, which is almost always these days. Check out the daily specials, which feature dishes like spicy lobster, Chinese combination plates and occasional oddities--wild boar among the stranger of them. Van's is popular for its noodle dishes and affordable lunches, and the variety makes it easy to please picky eaters.
Van's restaurant has garnered a large local following here, including the Alamo Heights set, office lunchers, students and members of the arts and culture crowd. Children delight at the large fish tank that runs the length of one wall. Adults ogle the other walls, lined with wine bottles--one of many areas in which Van's excels. Van's diners are as varied as its divergent cuisine.
