We also got the honey chicken biscuit and a big slice of heath bar cheesecake. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was spacious, clean, and they had great Motown hits playing. I highly recommend! I’ll be back.”

“Lyra Lou Cakes, crafted by the talented Arpita, is a confectionery haven. The cakes, including the delightful cupcakes I ordered, are a testament to Arpita's culinary prowess. Lyra Lou masterfully blends flavors, creating a symphony for the taste buds. The cupcakes, in particular, were a miniature masterpiece—each one a burst of sweetness and artistry. Arpita's dedication to her craft is evident in every bite, as I ordered cakes before as well than special mention Aman , Prabh, Arpita and Lyra making Lyra Lou Cakes a go-to for those seeking an extraordinary dessert experience.”

“From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere that set the stage for a wonderful dining experience.About the food – the lamb and A5 wagyu were nothing short of phenomenal. Bursting with flavor, each bite was a testament to the restaurant's dedication to sourcing the highest quality ingredients from around the world. And the cocktails? They were the perfect accompaniment to the meal, expertly crafted and incredibly refreshing.But what truly made my visit memorable was the impeccable service, courtesy of Sam, one of the supervisors. Her friendly and attentive demeanor elevated the dining experience to another level, making me feel like a valued guest from start to finish.I can't wait to return and indulge in their mouthwatering dishes and delightful cocktails once again!”

“Cart Service Dimsum is back! Tucked away in a small hole-in-the-wall location in Northwest Austin, New Fortune has re-homed it's nostalgic and still very tasty, dimsum menu at the former location of Jenna's Chinese Restaurant (also formally North and South China).Those of who remember their cart service, finally have a place to return and be greeted by carts of wonderful appetizer sized, shareable plates of goodness.The caviat, and what most people fail to realize, is that this is a SOFT opening and with ANY soft opening, this is the time where they find the wrinkles and try to iron them out before formally having their grand opening. They're still working out the exact flow of the carts, their available menu and trying to hire staff. Keeping those things in mind, here's my honest opinion of the food, the atmosphere and its potential.The Food:The food is exactly as I remembered prior to the pandemic.. DELICIOUS! My party and I had ALMOST every offering that their carts toted:Steamed shrimp dumplingsSteamed pork dumplingsFried shrimp ballsTurnip CakeFried taro rootSesame ballsBbq pork Steamed bunsEgg custard sweet steamed bunsBbq pork mini triangle pastriesEgg custard tartsShrimp RangoonSalt and pepper Fried tofuSalt and pepper Fried shrimpWalnut shrimpChicken sticky riceChicken feetShrimp and leak dumplingsPork pot stickersChicken and leak dumplingsChinese broccoliFried egg rollsCongee with Chinese fried long donut(not sure what it is in English)Steamed pork spare ribsSoup-filled steamed dumplingsWe didn't get the steamed tripe, the long noodles with shrimp, the jelly dessert and a couple other things, but the majority of their menu we had on our table.The Atmosphere:The atmosphere was electric, chaotic, loud, noisy and obviously busy... all the hallmarks of an authentic Cantonese dimsum establishment. You'll see familiar faces. Many of the servers and hosts returned for the opening and are happy (albeit stressed) to be working at the family owned restaurant again, one server even came out of a 5 year retirement to be a part of the re-opening. Don't be surprised to find the restaurant owners and/or family members, literally running around the restaurant trying to accommodate everyone and make their patrons happy. I'm not saying that they have everything under control yet. There are many times were the carts didn't come around to our table and if they did, sometimes without items that we wanted, so they do run out of items as the service progresses. (Helpful hint, if you see something on a cart that you want, but dont want it until later, just get it and save it, especially if it's a dessert, the item might be available later).Potential:The parking sucks and parking on the adjacent residential streets isnt uncommon. Right now, the service is slow, it's undeniably slow. The wait after the restaurant initially becomes full, is nuts...the wait ranges from 45 minutes to 2 hours.The food carts might not come by your table often and when they do, might not have what you want. But when New Fortune gets the logistics of cart routes, item pars, and their staffing in order, it's going to be FANTASTIC. The first two are going to be the easiest to troubleshoot and fix, but the staffing will be difficult. I'm not sure what they can do about the parking, but other than those key things, New Fortune has the potential of becoming THE go-to dimsum restaurant that it once was prior to the pandemic. I certainly hope they fix these issues sooner than later, but until then, I'll continue to enjoy frequent the restaurant whenever I can.”
“This hotel is perfect for a weekend getaway. All of the staff, to include random service people, who we would see in elevators, ect were so welcoming. This hotel provides superior hospitality.”
“Had an amazing experience at the new Texas Roadhouse tonight! I’m so happy there is finally one closer to me. The food was delicious. Our bartender Erica was so friendly and we barely waited for anything she was so fast and attentive. We will definitely be back to visit when she is working!”
“Great new location. Nice patio overlooking Crown Hill Park! Food wasn’t as good as other locations, pretty sure they forgot to put cheese in the quesadilla. I think one bite maybe had some? I didn’t take it back up. Will probably give it another shot one of these days bc of the patio.Here’s hoping the food is better next time.”
“This restaurant is fantastic! The food, the drinks and the vibes are so fun. Shoutout to Juan for hooking us up at the bar. He made custom cocktails for my friend and I based on our preferences and they were genuinely the best cocktails we’ve ever had. Thank you and can’t wait to frequent this spot ?”
“Very nice environment and great atmosphere nice behavior and food quality is very good .”

“Best pizza in Sewell Williamstown area not even close. Gravy is sweet, not acidic.”
“During my recent inaugural visit to Upper Crust, I was treated to a truly exceptional experience. Guiding me through the culinary journey was Christopher, our attentive server whose warmth and knowledge of the menu were remarkable. Christopher not only provided insightful recommendations but also ensured our glasses were never empty and our food arrived promptly. The dishes were served piping hot and exuded freshness, a testament to the quality upheld under the new ownership, of which Christopher proudly shared his involvement as part of the management team. To encapsulate my satisfaction, I can only urge you to request Christopher's service when you next visit. He truly deserves a raise for his outstanding hospitality.”

“Myself and my fiancé are from Northern Minnesota and were there in July of last year. There were a couple of minor issues with our visit that day, but the food was delightful. Our server suggested that the manager may want to speak with me in regard to our experience, given the nature of the issues that occurred, so I left my business card and honestly forgot about it, as it wasn't that big of a deal to me. Some time later I received a letter at my office from the manager (I found out later that she's actually the owner.) She sent me a check to refund the cost of our meal, along with a very nice note of explanation and apology. The refund was way above and beyond what was necessary or expected. She took full responsibility for the issues that we had experienced at her establishment that day in July. She also asked for another opportunity to serve us the next time that we were in the area. This was a very classy (but unexpected) response to what I would consider to be something that wasn't that big of a deal to me, but it clearly was to her. Given the high standards that she clearly demonstrated for her establishment, there was no doubt that I would honor her request for a second opportunity. This last Saturday we were finally in town again and were able to visit the Basil Café for a second time. We had an absolutely delightful experience in every regard! After our meal, I asked the pleasant young lady that was checking on us if the manager happened to be in on a Saturday. Well, that turned out to be her! Her name is Tiffany, and she is the owner of the Basil Café. I introduced myself to her and she not only remembered the letter that she had sent and the small issues that occurred on our previous visit, but she also remembered my full name from memory!!! We had a very nice conversation and she sent us home with some extra spring rolls that we enjoyed at home later that evening. Tiffany, I also run a business, and the way that you treated us and handled that situation is an impressive lesson in customer service and leadership. You didn't just recover us as customers, you created 2 raving fans of your business through your actions and demeanor along with your wonderful cuisine. You easily could have brushed off the initial experience that we had last year. And, while we weren't upset about it, we likely wouldn't have thought to ever return to your establishment if you had. Instead, you held yourself and your wonderful restaurant to a higher standard, and you made 2 raving fans that will return again and again and will recommend your establishment at every opportunity. Tiffany, thank you for a wonderful dining experience and thank you for a refreshing attitude and demonstration of personal responsibility that you so impressively gave. That level of service and attention to detail is rare in our world today. BTW, the Drunken Noodles are delicious and so are the Spring rolls. We will see you again soon. - Jake & E.”
“A group of us met here for a birthday celebration. Foid was great, and so were the drinks. It was a mix of bar type foods with some higher end choices. Good, cheerful service. We really enjoyed! We will return!”
“Food was really good and staff was nice. A little slow getting our food but figure it will get better as staff gets more experience.”
“We held a company function outdoors and Taco Bros was absolutely the right choice. They are exceptionally service oriented, top-notch quality, and efficient. I can't imagine hosting an event if they are not providing the food. FANTASTIC”
“Art's BBQ is so tender, it melts in my mouth. Delicious! He has the biggest potatoes I have ever seen. The beans are spiced just right, with some bacon in it. Like my dad used to make in a big stock pot on the stove.”
“I apologize but I have been going to get food at this location ever since they opened. I should have given a review from the start, but I wanted to wait until I truly experienced all of what they have to offer. All I have to say is, AMAZING. Everything from their carnitas tacos to carne asada nachos is the best. I can say I even drink their hot sauce lol. You want food that gives every bang for the buck, you need to go here. They are such wonderful people to deal with, which makes it even better.”
“My bacon avocado burger and fries were very good! Marley, was super friendly. My food came out so fast. Thank you guys”

“The fella who’s always behind the counter (I assume he’s the owner) is just the best, he’s a super hard worker and everything is always quality. It’s also super affordable, not Park Slope prices. I very much appreciate a solid NY deli that isn’t outrageously priced.”
“Literal HIDDEN gem. Get the croissant French toast. Trust me! It will get your day started in the best way. Excellent service, honest and fair prices. I’m already planning my next trip over there and I’m not even back home yet!”
“Good icecream and esquitesWheelchair accessibility: Entrance is ADA compliant. There is no slope to get in since the entrance is flat with the ground outside too.”
“Drove from Indianapolis to eat filipino food and it was worth the drive. The owner/chef was very welcoming and friendly. Food was delicious. Forgot to take a picture of the other food we ordered. But i got a few.”
