Having a private event? Rent the Croissant Room at Elizabeth Street Café!
From the start, working with the MML team was a delight. Preparation was clear and made easy. The day of the event went off without a hitch! The team at Elizabeth Street Café really go the extra mile to make things just right.
We loved having both the inside and outside spaces--it really made the event feel open. And the food and drinks were fantastic! And really, this is a huge shout out to the entire team for making it extra special.
We had the best time and I highly recommend renting the Croissant Room for your next event!

Charming place with delicious food and decent service. The staff's outfits are the same dress in various colors which is so cute. The spring rolls were very fresh and tasty as was the pho. Many different seating options including inside, outside and at the cafe bar. Outside seating requires a bit more of a wait. Will definitely return!

Absolutely loved this place. Very flavorful pho broth, amazing flavor on the tofu. Very soft, perfectly fried. Great portions!
Service was great but unfortunately the food fell far below expectations. Also, prices are too high!

The food is great, cocktails are delicious, but you’ll be shouting at your friends across the table because the acoustics inside are horrible. Leaves you gritting your teeth with ringing ears. If they can fix that, it’s a winning spot.

The spring rolls, pork belly buns, Saints and Sunsets mocktails, and Opera cake were delicious. My friend really liked her fried rice. I ordered the banh cuon, and although it was tasty with very authentic flavors, the steamed rice batter itself was quite thick. Pro: You get full really fast on just the dough. Con: You miss out on the tasty pork fillings, and like me, if you're visiting from out of town and staying at a hotel, you have to leave behind half the dish because you can't take back leftovers.
Everything was great. Tables are a little too close together inside. Hard to get in and out of and you feel like you're in your neighbor's conversation.
Can't believe I haven't tried this place in my 6 years here in ATX. This is now one of my top 5 restaurants in Austin. The chili dumplings were fire and the Singapore noodles to die for. I can't wait to come back and try something new. 5 stars!!!

We were encouraged to go to Elizabeth St. Cafe and eat outside. SO glad we did. The food was remarkable. Our wonderful waiter recommended the Mango Cucumber Salad ..... fantastic. The Cha Ca was spicy and delicious. The Carpaccio had its own flavor profile and I can't wait to order it again. Really delicious dining experience.

Great dinner with Kaemen at the bar!! Great server and bar tender!! Awesome food!!!! Thanks for the experience !
We visited Austin TX & got stuck in the ice storm this weekend. This place made our extra day here so much better. The Pho was delicious. Best pho broth I’ve had anywhere! We also got some crispy rolls & it came with plenty of fresh herbs & lettuces. The nước chấm dipping sauce reminded me of my mom’s! DELICIOUS food!!!! Lovely packaging. Thank you so much.

It was our first visit, but it definitely won't be our last! We tried several starters and a couple of entrées, and everything was fantastic. The Pork Belly Steamed Buns and Steamed Rice Rolls were outstanding. We also had the Fried Spring Rolls and Ginger Chili Oil Dumplings—both excellent choices. For entrées, we ordered the Drunken Beef Noodles and Ribeye Fried Rice, which were packed with flavor. Dessert was the perfect ending: Ube Vanilla Ice Cream and a couple of macarons. The ice cream and coconut macaron were especially incredible! Abigail was our server, and she truly guided our entire experience with great recommendations and warm, attentive service. The manager even stopped by to say hello, and the entire team was so friendly and welcoming. We had an awesome first visit. If you've never been, this place is an absolute must when you're in Austin!
Cool vibe, great food, and just an overall awesome spot for lunch or dinner. We haven’t been disappointed!

First time and loved the food! Service was great too! Wow exceeded all my expectations. Only complaint is the noise. While vibrant is a great thing it was almost inaudible to have a meaningful conversation inside.
