Restaurants in Austin

“Incredible. The drinks and food were insane. The broccoli dish we had was the best thing I've had in a long time. The service was also outstanding. Super pleased with our experience!”

“I would like to respectfully start with; I’ve been to Uchi multiple times over the years and will never forget my first experience (which will always be the best in my mind.) That being said — tonight might have been the closest to first I’ve ever had. Chance, our server was attentive, knowledgeable, easy going, brought some of the best plates when we asked “bring us what you like/anything you think we missed” literally 12/10 would recommend. Ask for Chance, he knows his shiiiiiiii* and made our night absolutely amazing and something we will never forget!”

“Kudos to our bartender Danny for creating such a great visit to The Carpenter Hotel and even better mocktail options. I had the “Her Name is Claudia” mocktail using a local mixer and it was amazing!”

“If you're looking for a great time and a delicious dinner, this is the place to go. We had a large party and the service was top notch. Jonathan, our server, was amazing! He answered all our questions and was very informative. The entire party was impressed by him, the food, and the drinks. We can't wait to go back.”

“Everything was good, but best brisket ever…”

“Wow, absolutely the best Chinese cuisine experience of my life.
From the first bite to the last, everything was exceptional: the food, the creativity, the flawless execution, the warm service, and the authentic kitchen atmosphere. The intimate setting made it feel even more special, and the staff were incredibly welcoming.

We started with a stunning goldfish-shaped dumpling soup (almost too beautiful to eat), followed by an unbelievably flavorful Peking duck and the beautiful Chinese treasure box...and the delights just kept coming. (Come hungry, you won’t want to miss a single thing.) Every dish was a surprise, artistic, thoughtful, and full of flavor. What truly made the experience unforgettable was Ling herself. Hearing the personal story behind the meal added so much heart and meaning. She is truly one of Austin’s precious gems.

This was a once in a lifetime culinary experience I will never forget! Thank you, Ling and Jimmy.”

“This is a small, cosy restaurant with a fusion of Mediterranean and Indian flavours using local, seasonal ingredients from Texas. The restaurant offers a four-course prix fixe menu with sophisticated and creative food (Time Out Worldwide) (The Texas Tasty).”

“My wife and I had the best experience here for my birthday lunch, I'm so glad we chose this restaurant to eat at while in town for the Austin FC match! I can't say enough about the staff and the owner Joel who went out of his way to be extremely kind to us. Not to mention the food and drinks were so good. We'll definitely be back!”

“It was absolutely delicious”

“Just completed a tour of the Central Texas Barbecue Scene. Visited Snow's BBQ-Lexington, Louie Mueller-Taylor, Kreus Market, Smitty's and Black's-Lockhart, The Salt Lick- Driftwood and Franklin's in Austin. It was great seeing the venues and the family history at these historic sites. I visited Franklin's in the past and felt it was the best brisket I had ever eaten in my life. I am a skeptic when it comes to famous barbecue joints. I must say that Franklin's BBQ was far superior to all of the restaurants I visited with no one even a close second. Aaron's attention to detail from the service, choice of briskets, the cook, the wrap, the holding and even the slicing of the final product is evident in every aspect of his trade. I was lucky enough to run into him at the restaurant and he happily talked BBQ with me. Franklin's may not have the long history of muti-generational BBQ in Central Texas, but he has figured it all out at a level that I have yet to see equaled by the best venues in the country. This is a bucket list restaurant for those who really enjoy BBQ. It is well worth the wait in line”

“Love it here! Fine dining in a relaxed atmosphere.”

“My wife and I couldn’t be happier with our meal and the service at Dai Due. Everything we had was beyond delicious and we had a kind and attentive server who was able to answer our questions and her recommendations were on point. I highly recommend this wonderful restaurant!”

“The brisket was ridiculously tender, seasoned just right, and you don’t even need sauce (but the sauce is still good). Portions are generous, the sides actually hit(that mac and cheese??). Not cheap, but 100% worth it.”

“Great spot, friendly people. Get some of everything. Nothing disappoints.”

“I reserved online for my daughter’s birthday and got into town an hour earlier and they still were able to accommodate us. At the table with the menus was a birthday card with a really nice and meaningful note on the inside. Staff, drinks, and food were amazing! Definitely recommend checking this place out.”

“Exceptional omakase. One of my favorite restaurants in Austin. The chef is extremely personable and kind. Made me feel incredible comfortable throughout the whole experience. My girlfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed this experience. The food itself was absolutely delicious. Every single nigiri was exceptional, with wonderful rice texture. The fish itself was always excellent quality and the sauces lightly coated on each fish were excellently paired with the flavor profile of the fish itself. Drinks: I did the sake pairing which had two options, a standard pairing for $80 iirc, and prestige pairing for $100. I did the pairing for $100. It was outstanding. My friend opted to do the prestige wine pairing ($110); she thoroughly enjoyed that pairing, as well. After the 22 courses, we went back the bar/lounge area and opted to finish our night with a glass of or Born Gold sake. The service team was incredible throughout the meal. Their presence was very low-key, but they were informative and really kind. Will absolutely be returning in the future.”

“We had the most pleasant experience last night. Our waiter Rora was great! The dessert was out of this world and the garden is literally like Europe in the middle of Austin. We will be back. Thank you.”

“Oh Texas, Oh Texas. It’s been a solid start to sxsw many more shows to go 🤠”

“Thanks!! We’ll miss your delicious food and presence in the neighborhood”

“My wife and I went without a reservation recently and were seated right away. The food is delicious and so fresh. I enjoyed the variety of selection on the salad bar and hot bar. The Brazilian cheese bread is addictive! On top of that, the service is spectacular. Our water was never empty and our plates always cleared. The manager, Mario, also made sure we were treated well. Loved it and plan to go back soon.”

“From the moment I spotted the aquarium I knew we were in for an exquisite expedition⛵️🛥️🚢🛳️⛴️⚓️ 🥂”

“Review is for Tonari by Uroko.
I think there needs to be more concepts like this — 12 course omakase that only lasts 45min. (You simply don’t need to be at an omakase for 2-2.5hrs) Excellent dishes for the price point and glad to have still had time on my hands. The scallop, Wagyu, and fish bone soup were the stand out dishes for me. Would do this again and prefer it over a lot of overpriced omakases in town.”

“Great staff, beautiful lounge and very clean. Great date spot”

“Totally new world of tacos! Amazing flavors, unusual combinations, super fresh ingredients and perfectly prepare. Well deserved James Beard award!”

“There are a LOT of gluten free options, and the sushi is incredible!”

“Chef’s tasting Menu … Chef Charles is a genius.”

“Some of the best food I’ve tasted. Those oysters are mind blowing! Great staff.”

“A great spot and fun atmosphere.”

“Great mix of cocktails. I tried a variety of their cocktails and each was perfectly balanced.”

“excellent dining in a great atmosphere an awesome service sampled a bunch of tasting plates from the fish tacos to the bone marrow and the oysters even had a wonderful dessert with their homemade ice cream and bananas did I say that the service was awesome top notch five stars all day definitely a place to visit in Austin”

“I've been here a few times and I always have a great experience. Review by Gabriel Culiat”

“Visited a friend in Austin and he introduced me to the Buzz Mill.”

“This was such a fun experience today! They serve fabulous food and a delicious tea selection in a fun space! Each of us received our own tea pots and chose two separate teas. Each pot had about 4 cups of tea in there, so we were able to share and try the different teas we each ordered. My favorite tea was the Coconut Oolong; it tasted like toasted coconut. The sandwhiches were delicious and the scone was delightful and the macaron melted in my mouth. My favorite was the Banoffee Pie: toffee, banana custard and a biscuit layered. It was so filling! Best of all, the owner is personable, talked to us, greeted us, waited on us and just radiates with energy! Every detail is just perfect. Everything was served in/on the cutest English china tableware. It really added to the experience. Can’t wait to go back!”

“Great service and delicious food!”

“Best burger and fries in the entire great state of Texas. Come to DFW P. Terry’s! We need your greatness!”

“Eberley made the absolute best Iced Bennu with pecan flavor. I asked her what the most popular iced coffee is and voila. WOW. I am making this my new meeting spot with friends - your 2001 East MLK location. Stay great and see you all soon! PS: I am a coffee snob and when I tell you this iced coffee was amazing, well, it was (smile). Great way to kickstart the day.”

“Our server was Alice both times we ate there and she is so nice and cheerful while professional and quick to take care of customers. She started our day off with a smile. Thanks Alice!!”

“Can’t wait to book again !”

“Best burger and fries in the entire great state of Texas. Come to DFW P. Terry’s! We need your greatness!”

“Good food . Ghetto atmosphere but I fw that tho cuz it doesn’t feel uptight like ihop”

“I have worked with Pretty Cute Coffee many times as they have catered various events for us at the University of Texas and am always pleased with their services. I appreciate their candor and attention to detail the most. Looking forward to having them cater many events in the future!”

“Best burger and fries in the entire great state of Texas. Come to DFW P. Terry’s! We need your greatness!”

“Great food! Just sad to hear y’all don’t order salsa no more. Only thing missing for my food”

“Great food. Best chicken.”

“mellow music, welcoming environment and great coffee and exceptional customer service.”

“The beef cheek was 🔥 So much flavor in every bite! The tacos have the perfect amount of moisture. You never know if a place will be as good as the ratings say, but this place is definitely a 5.0”

“Stop in for a Pastrami breakfast sandwich, it’s 🔥 amazing!”

“This restaurant is highly recommended. The food is delicious”

“Great place! If you don’t order the cannoli, you are missing out!”

“Very good breakfast sandwich, would not have expected it to work but it’s fantastic. I will certainly try to work this into my Austin visits from now on. You know you’re in Austin: sitting at a picnic table next to a guy with a man-bun, hydroflask full of coffee, working at his laptop, likely for hours. Not sure I”d want that yummy grape jelly on my keyboard but whatever.”

“Amazing!!! Great atmosphere, amazing food, and down to earth owner!!!”

“Great Food and awesome ambiance.”

“It was one great cup of coffee. But, boy, was it so much more!

Andrea didn’t just take my order, she guided me every step of the way, with such care and personal attention that I felt like I was at a 5-star restaurant. But here I was, at a food truck, waiting in line, cold from the chilly morning, and getting some of the best customer service I’ve ever experienced. There was no rush. There was just you and your order, and when Andrea made suggestions and recommendations, I was smart enough to take every one.

When I picked up my drink, the gentleman at the counter said, “We appreciate you.” Well, all I can say to Andrea and everyone at Desnudo is, we appreciate YOU ❤️”

“great place to eat vegan!”

“My favorite Italian sub in Town. Took it to go today, so I coyest it during the Texas Kansas game.”

“Weekend getaway in Austin, went here for lunch.

Ambience - located in an alley, can be a little confusing to find. Walk into an alley bar, go through a door, walk through a small seating area, around the corner to the kitchen where you wait in line to order and get your food. Can be fun if you like hustle and bustle. Energetic atmosphere, everybody working fast getting customers their food. No table service, you order, you wait for your food, you try to find a place to sit.

Food - very tasty, we order 3 different ones just to try out the variety between the two of us, along with a side of chips and salsa. The salsa is outstanding…probably the best flavor I’ve had in a long time. Our tacos were steak, chicken, and pork, all on homemade tortillas. Very fresh tasting and tasty, but the meat was chopped fine, tough to hold together while you eat without it falling out the ends.

Enjoyed the lively atmosphere and great quick lunch.

Would I go there again…yes

Would I recommend…yes.”

“A small mom and pop shop with excellent baklava, and amazing customer service! They greeted us with a delicious free sample and helped us pick out different types of baklava. Couldn't have had a better experience!”

“Always delicious, service is friendly and helpful. The wings and fries are always perfect.”

“We visited Moonshine Bar & Grill this weekend, and I can honestly say it exceeded every expectation. From the moment the food arrived, it was clear we were in for something special—chef’s kiss doesn’t even begin to cover it! Every dish was perfectly prepared, full of flavor, and clearly made with care and excellence. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, the service was attentive, and the overall experience was simply top-tier. This is the kind of place that reminds you why great food and great hospitality matter. 10 out of 10— We will absolutely be recommending Moonshine Bar & Grill and can’t wait to return! 🍽️✨”

“My wife and I visited last Wednesday on our vacation from Minnesota. The brisket was great, the barbacoa was the best I've ever had anywhere. The onion rings were amazing and I don't personally care for onion rings. The jalapeno cheese chorizo was outstanding. As good as all those were the beef ribs were the best most perfect bite of food I've ever had... But what really stood out is the amazing staff from Evan greeting us as we walked in the door to everyone that we met so helpful kind and cheerful! Having worked in the service industry for most of my life it's always a joy to be treated so well!”

“An experience…..a must go to in Austin.”

“good food and affordable prices. will get full str8 up And most definitely a mean cheese steak. Tha badest in tha City.”

“Wow! This place is soooo good. The first time I went I tried the Mission Burger and it was amazing. Since then I’ve tried the steak sandwich, bbq brisket, and mac & cheese and all are delicious. You would never guess everything is plant based. Keep up the great work and please open a restaurant near Grant Park!”

“SO excited I finally got to try La Santa Barbacha!!! Obsessed with the food and drinks, I definitely recommend trying this spot 🔥”

“Excellent bbq! Would eat there again”

“Food was excellent & the atmosphere was very warm & cozy.”

“Fun place to have a drink and start the night for some east austin fun!!”

“Delicious BBQ! Great ambiance and service!”

“Awesome food and staff! Don’t miss!!”

“We stopped by late this morning to treat my 3 year old to a cupcake. We got the strawberry cupcake and vanilla cupcake. They were both delicious! The shop itself is cute and the staff are very friendly. Next time I will have to try the blue velvet.”

“Especially the crispy steak burrito and the best guacamole 🥑 ever!!”

“grubb best hot sauce around”

“Great atmosphere, tasty food! We will be back!”

“We don’t come often as we don’t live near, but it’s always an amazing treat. Today we sat at the bar and Skyler was AMAZING! We had the large seafood tower, extra order of the scallop nigiri, pasta special, and it was all absolute perfection! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”

“Highly recommend as this is truly the ultimate culinary experience! Not only that but Chef Saine is adds a personable touch to the service and is also super entertaining. TJ does phenomenal recommending drinks with the dishes. Truly a unique experience.”

“As always, for many years we’ve dined at Jeffrey’s and we are very pleased with the service and of course our food. Can’t say enough!”

“My fiance booked this experience for my birthday and it was amazing. The food is off the charts, the service 5 stars, and the staff are the most friendly and knowledgeable people I have met at a restaurant. The head master sushi chef and owner is from Tokyo and is frankly the most amazing sushi chef I’ve experienced, with years of experience. It was a show and a dining experience. The chef even played me happy birthday on a guitar as he wanted to be a blues guitarist! Also the atmosphere is stunning. Gorgeous restaurant. I cannot say enough good things other than GO and BOOK NOW. It is a must if you love sushi! A huge thank you to Yasu-san and the staff for an incredible birthday dinner. We will be back!”

“Amazing atmosphere along with amazing food 10 out of 10 !!”

“Absolutely loved everything about our experience! The food was incredible and we had the best server. The drink was amazing and we absolutely loved the steak. Best meal I’ve had! Thank you!!!”

“The food and service were impeccable. We had a a terrible expense at a competitors and left without ordering, we came to Dean’s and they seated us in the bar right away and proceeded to make our experience 10/10.”

“The staff was very friendly and the food was excellent.”

“The food is very well executed and presented, the staff are very attentive.”

“Amazing dinner with amazing chefs.”

“I ate here while in town for Afrotech! I started with the Sunomono Salad (Cucumber, green onion, crab stick, octopus, radish sprouts, sesame seeds with ponzu sauce). I then had two rolls: 1. Who’s Your Daddy? (no rice) (Deep fried crab, cooked shrimp, cream cheese with special sauce); 2. I Love Tuna (in: spicy Tuna, cucumber out: Blue fin Tuna, green onion sauce: Garlic ponzu, green onion, masago) EVERYTHING was amazingly good, the staff was very friendly, efficient, and ensured you had a great dining experience. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”

“From start to finish, this dining experience was absolutely perfect. Our waiter was easy to talk to and knowledgeable of the menu. The starters were probably my favorite, but everything we ordered was flavored to perfection. We will be back”

“everything in life will be muted and dull until I return to Olamaie it is exceptional to the point that I have lost sense of punctuation and capitalization truly”

“Great food. Nice service 👏”

“Definitely worth a visit at least once! Soulful meal and service experience.”

“Tonight, my husband and I tried Uchiko for the first time. We had the Okamase. Everything was absolutely delicious. They put so much creativity and detail in every dish. We had a wonderful waitress. I would definitely recommend it.”

“This is my new favorite beverage bar on the trail. The attention to detail is insane. Handmade, crafted, natural, and beautiful drinks. Yes, that is a pineapple slushy topped mocktail with a raspberry rosemary twist. The drinks are a large portion too. The smoothy was very filling and just sweet enough so that every fruit shined. This is not your average food truck. Everything this duo does is well thought out and passionate! See y'all soon as this is now a must stop for meeeee!”

“los mejores mariscos de Austin TX la mera verdad un 10 de 10 los recomiendo”

“Had fun catching up with friends here! 🤸🤸🤸”

“Top shelf bbq. I think they should relocate to in my front yard so I don’t need to get the car out of garage. I had brisket/ribs/sausage… which ones best? I am undecided, I probably should get more to help decide.”

“Great ice cream and great service”

“Whenever I need to escape the woes of today's ATX, I can rely on House Park BBQ to transport me back to a much simpler time. Not because House Park is simple or that my childhood didn't have depth. But it's like a little bubble of Texas in the ❤️ of whatever the Heart of Texas has become, with friendly staff and a bucket of pickles. Add to it a beautiful day such as this—70° and a light breeze in the middle of February, and I can pretend I'm 7 years old again.”

“The food and the service was great.”

“We both loved our food. The person at the counter was very helpful in selecting the right dish and the food came quickly. It's authentic Mumbai food. So of you like that, you'll love the food here. We also ordered rasmalai, and you'll probably not find better rasmalai in this area. Oh and dis I mention how affordable everything is!”

“Delicious! First time. The turkey and provolone was so good! 🥪”

“The most authentic Hawaiian Food in Austin TX. Better than the "Chain Stores" that are popping up. Katsu is a favorite but the Garlic Chicken is the winnah.”

“came here on a bachelor party trip. best food. sober, hungover, didn't matter. kerlaches by 15.”

“Such a great, vibey spot on the east side. The good morning breakfast sandwich was delicious, definitely recommend adding the chipotles. The biscuits are unlike any I’ve ever had; will be thinking of them often! The rose oat milk late was perfect; not too sweet or floral.

There’s an adorable used bookstore right next door that’s also worth checking out.”

“Luis R. was incredibly helpful today. I had made a mistake with my takeout order, and he immediately stepped in and took care of it without any hassle. He got everything corrected and my food out to me very quickly. I really appreciated how kind and proactive he was. It made what could have been a frustrating situation very easy. Thank you, Luis!”

“Best korean wings in the area. Great food, great service and great staff.”

“First time trying Torchy's and I must say I was not disappointed! The self-service kiosks are pretty standard and the professional was very streamlined and quick. The food is pretty large in portion size so definitely recommend taking each entree as it comes, and not ordering too much at the beginning. Will definitely come back to Torchy's when traveling through this area!”

“Muy buena pizza con calidad. Se ve el esfuerzo de los trabajadores para preparar la mejor pizza y que el cliente quede satisfecho. Buen trabajo en equipo. Felicitaciones...”

“Great food and service! .Management an asset to the community very supportive investing in youth activities!”

“My wife and I went without a reservation recently and were seated right away. The food is delicious and so fresh. I enjoyed the variety of selection on the salad bar and hot bar. The Brazilian cheese bread is addictive! On top of that, the service is spectacular. Our water was never empty and our plates always cleared. The manager, Mario, also made sure we were treated well. Loved it and plan to go back soon.”

“Ramos is a great place to dine. I come here very often, sometimes 3 times a day. I've had most everything on the menu and have never had a bad meal. From breakfast to lunch to the special dinner meals, they all have that wonderful regional TexMex flavor you would expect from an establishment of this quality. I challenge you to give it a try. They won't disappoint.”

“First time here. Excellent pizza. And the service was over the top. Thank you. I will be back!”

“Always great food, atmosphere, and wonderful customer service”

“Really good food, service, atmosphere. A pretty restaurant, nicely decorated.”

“Good food Great customer service”

“I absolutely LOVE the lemongrass tofu vermicelli! The portion sizes are great and their veggie rolls and peanut sauce are really good too.”

“Can't beat the vibe at Manana. The coffee is good too. Maybe not as much food selection as I would hope but everything else makes up for it.”

“The food was good and the presentation was clean and creative. The sashimi and nigiri pieces were quite large—I ended up cutting them into bite-sized pieces with my chopsticks. The handrolls were a good size and easy to eat. The menu doesn’t offer much variety, but now I know: if I want more options, I’ll just go elsewhere. Still, a solid spot if you know what to expect.”

“Senorita Rosa thank you for making us feel like we were back home in El Paso TX. I highly recommend you give it a try food was so good we even forgot to take pictures.(oops). Hand made tortillas yummy. Give them a try you won't be disappointed. Thank you Rosa will be back soon. ( Dios la bendiga).”

“The food was amazing! I ordered the Biryani (love it) and they are generous with their cucmber. I took a little longer to bake and they threw in a free appetizer for me for generosity. Highly recommend! Good business!”

“We had great burgers and Brunch food. Recommend the onion petals and cheeseburger. The atmosphere is "Austin Weird" ! Service is friendly, but very slow. Will be back soon.”

“Greek food was good -- best iI have had in Austin.”

“Food is not worth the price. drinks are small and weak and overpriced. 2/7 Saturday 1pm brunch they were cleaning something at the bar that smelled DISGUSTING like sewage. loud shop vac. for $60 i got 3 boring pancakes, a side of lazy home fries, ans 2 very weak drinks at $15 each!!!! NO ambience mid service (saw waitress maybe 2x she disappeared often. Wtf did i pay for?? food was NO BETTER than Dennys or IHOP I promise you!!! $22 for 3 paper thin pancakes is crazy. I don't get to do brunch often. I want my money back. this sucked and I HIGHLY don't recommend it. no atmosphere. why would yall do that work at 1pm on a Saturday??? TRULY smelled like sewage. never coming back seriously don't go. no wonder we walked in with no reservation. I think they have fake reviews too.”

“One of the most beautiful sunsets I’ve ever seen. This place is a must-visit if you’re in Austin. It does get very crowded, so arrive at least an hour early if you want parking and a good spot to watch the sunset.”

“Absolutely would try to the sirloin, it is a nice cut of meat and very tender. Their appetizers are extremely good as well.”

“Great place, brought my wife for our anniversary and we really enjoyed ourselves. I reserved seating next to the balcony and had an amazing view of downtown Austin. The staff had really great customer service and service was quick and we received our drinks and food in a timely manner and not to mention they have us a complementary glass of champagne for the both of us. I recommend this place and will be returning.”

“Angelica, was our server in July for my birthday and my goddaughter's birthday. Both times service was outstanding the calamari is amazing and the steaks sooooo good, I have never had a steak that tender before, Angelica made suggestions for my Goddaughter and she tried calamari for the first time. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”

“Simply amazing. We were there for sunset over Travis Lake and it did not disappoint. Food was amazing, drinks were perfect and the atmosphere on point. We sat outdoors and we loved it. Our waitress was perfect. We weren’t rushed, which was huge! Band playing on the patio were great! We will be back. Our only regret was not getting the tomahawk lol we are still talking about it. But my steak was delicious our sides so good. Thank you for a great experience. I was in from Jersey visiting my daughter and soon to be son in law and we loved it..”

“The food is delicious, and the atmosphere is really cool and inviting.”

“This place is another delishhh spot�”

“Considering that I'm a vegetarian and this is (obviously) a very meat-y restaurant, this was a very good experience. Staff were friendly and welcoming, the decor is elegant, the semi-outdoor seating was pleasantly breezy on a hot day (I could do without the huge TVs, but that's me). I simply wanted to get a quick drink with an old friend and we chose Carve purely because of its location. We arrived during their happy hour (which starts at 3:00). We ordered a couple of tasty cocktails and an order of the cheesy cauliflower sticks -- delicious! The happy hour prices certainly made me happy, and the charming waiter checked back in at sensible intervals and remained good humored and attentive even when it must have become obvious that we were not going to be ordering more. I noticed that the menu includes some attractive vegetarian/vegan options and will bear Carve in mind for family celebration meals where there are carnivores as well as vegetarians to feed. My only complaint, if you can call it that, is that they failed to include the tip I thought I'd added to the credit card slip and I realized when I checked my account that I hadn't left a tip at all -- apologies if that was my fault!!”

“Food was pretty damn good. Had the fish and chips, and local brews on tap (as expected). Would recommend.”

“We’d hoped to go to Mozarts next door but it was sold out for Christmas Lights. We decided to try Quince since we had spent time getting there and parking. We asked if we could sit near the water and they took us to a table one row away (the rest was booked). Happy Hour was almost over but our waiter Baddi said we had enough time to order. He recommended a margarita/sangria mix which was yummy. We ordered the HH brisket fries and Tuna Wontons. Everything was delicious and Baddi’s service was excellent. At one point the music got really loud, which started to annoy us, till we looked out over the water and a slack rope walker was performing over the water. It was quite a show! He later did the same thing over one of their outdoor decks on the other side. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, and were surprised so few of the indoor seats were full. If they opened their door and made it more welcoming, we thought a lot more people would have come over as the outside areas were packed for the lights.”

“This is an excellent place. The food is tasty and nicely presented. The view is amazing - especially at night. The staff is attentive but not overbearing. Overall, a world class option for Austin locals and visitors.”

“We went for a friends birthday party with a group of nine people. The staff was very attentive and friendly and the food came out in a timely manner and everything tasted delicious.”

“We have a family tradition of going out for fine dining for a birthday celebration. I had two birthday celebrations for the month. We used to live in Austin (now in San Antonio) and Truluck's made a huge impression on my wife and I back then. So I decided to do a road trip and treat two of our birthday celebrants to the BEST seafood in Austin. We all went five courses deep and none of them disappointed. The stone crab claws, to the PEI oysters, lobster bisque, little gem Caesar, as well as a variety of fish, and lobster entree's. Which included two of the largest tails I have seen (23 and 27 ounce tails). The grand finale were two customized Baked Alaska's. The food was exceptional, the service was outstanding and the whole dining experience was one for the family memory banks. The whole meal was impressive as it was delicious. We had Brian as our server; who acted more like a symphony maestro or conductor with his support staff. When we come back, I will be asking for Brian. Five Stars!!!”

“We are briefly visiting Austin, Texas for the first time and your restaurant was recommended at the last minute by our hotel, and we are so grateful. We celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary there last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. I believe the hostess name was Amanda and she saw we were a bit low-spirited and overwhelmed at arrival and made sure everything was handled with care for what was left of our anniversary. From the beautiful table, to picture taking, ambience, and a flaming baked Alaska at the end, we couldn’t be more grateful. Thank you Amanda and Truluck’s for providing an 11th hour extremely special experience.”

“My wife and I visited Austin (Barton Creek Area) which is amazing by itself. We were headed back to Dallas and wanted breakfast. There were lots of choices but this place stood out. OMG I’m glad we went. Got on the waitlist and it went quick. The staff at the greet stand were nice and friendly but when we got to table, it went up a notch!!
STEPHANIE WAS AMAZING!! Now don’t let her occasional “hell yeah” fool you for something bad. It is her affectionate way for letting you know that “something is good and a great option!” She was wonderful and so was the food. I got chicken and waffles and wife got breakfast quesadillas. This will be a familiar place in our stops when we visit that area. That STEPHANIE. Keep shining 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾”

“Best meal and vibes. The hospitality is warm, the esthetic is on point and the food, cocktails and wine list will impress you. So much flavor and you can tell they select quality products- try the chicken, gnocchi (done the French way 😊), fries, steak, salad, beef tartare. Honestly, you can’t gone wrong with anything on the menu! So much thoughtfulness coming out of this restaurant. It’s a gem and should be on everyone’s hit list!”

“Great experience. Loved the Mexican fusion, chefs were all great, service was great, def an experience you need to try. I really liked how the chef talks you through all the dishes and really get to know him with conversation throughout the meal. Music was great as well!”

“This food is DELICIOUS! You can’t go wrong anywhere on the menu, and the sauces are amazing, do not pass them up! Excellent tortillas, and the Samosas are perfectly fluffy. Indian + Mexican is the fusion everyone needs, and the service is lovely, I’m so glad this has come to oak hill!”

“Muy rico, limpio y excelente trato . Miramos la publicación y decidimos ir a probar y nos fuimos llenitos y contentos....cumplieron con las expectativas !!!!😉🤗”

“I got the samosa chaat and butter chicken and it was soooo delicious! Creamy and buttery with the perfect amount of spice. Great food at a great price and I'm taking leftovers home.”

“I’ve been eyeing this place for a while and finally decided to try it. I will be going back regularly! Everything was fresh and assembled with care. The bread is toasted perfectly and still soft. Honestly the insides steal the show though! Incredible flavor without being overcomplicated. Sandwich stays together when you eat it. It’s really clear these guys care about quality! Can’t wait to go back.”

“Delicious food! I had a Roma Supreme Pizza and a Calzone (well, there were 2 of us!). Both were so good, the recipe was on point. Definitely add me as a repeat customer.”

“Stopped by to grab lunch and open my laptop for a little while. Really great chicken wrap! Watched the Aggies beat the Longhorns in Volleyball. *Whoop!* Also got to visit with co-owner Deb Hallam for a little while. If you haven’t made your way over to 1972, yet, get there with friends and have fun!”

“Went on a date at Arriba Abajo on Saturday night and had an extremely enjoyable experience. The waitresses were very attentive, the staff was very kind, and overall we were very satisfied with our visit. Thank you all!”

“Best crust in Austin! no... actually the best crust in America!”

“My wife and I had an outstanding culinary experience at this Korean restaurant. We ordered the kimchi tofu soup with pork and the seafood and vegetables dolsot bibimbap (stone bowl), and both dishes exceeded our expectations.

The tofu soup arrived piping hot with six different side dishes and a raw egg to crack into the bubbling broth – a delightful touch that added richness to the soup. Every single side dish was expertly prepared and flavorful. The kimchi stood out with its perfect fermentation and balanced spice, while the noodles were silky and savory. As a soup enthusiast, I can confidently say this tofu soup has converted me into a regular – I’m already planning to work my way through their entire tofu soup menu.

The seafood and vegetables was equally impressive. Served in a sizzling hot stone bowl, it continued to cook at the table, creating that coveted crispy, golden rice layer at the bottom – easily the best part of the dish. The seafood was remarkably fresh, featuring tender octopus and shrimp that were perfectly cooked. The colorful array of vegetables added both visual appeal and a variety of textures that made every bite interesting.

The one area where there’s room for improvement is the service. While our server was efficient and professional, the interactions felt somewhat neutral – not unwelcoming, but not particularly warm either. A bit more friendliness would elevate the overall dining experience to match the exceptional quality of the food.

What truly sets this restaurant apart is the exceptional quality-to-price ratio. For dishes of this caliber, with such generous portions and attention to detail, the pricing is more than fair. Despite the service being somewhat reserved, the combination of authentic preparation, fresh ingredients, and outstanding value has made this one of my go-to spots. This restaurant has definitely gained a loyal, regular customer.”

“We stopped by to have cocktail. We had the creamsicle and it was so tasty. I accidentally drank it way too fast. I’m hoping it doesn’t hit me too hard.

The texture was so soft it went down like butter. You could taste all the flavors equally.

I’d go back. I need to try the food next time.”

“Great coffee, recommend. We tried the brown sugar miso, the white miso & orange and the dirty chai latte. All were really nice, I think the brown miso was the best. Really friendly and helpful staff. Sometimes a small queue but it goes quickly.”

“Loved it! The new all you can eat format is so worth it and the drinks were also great! The overall experience was wonderful and my friends and I will be going back!”
