Nice hot food, cold beers! Great flavor on the Indian Fusion appetizers! **Great atmosphere** and plenty of room to spread out!

I went with family while we visited the area. Food was old and grey. Every meal we ordered (9 people) was foul and disgusting. The guy delivering the food just threw the baskets on the table like he hated his life and wanted everyone to know. Don’t go here if you’d like to enjoy your dinner. We literally went back to our Airbnb and ordered a pizza. There is a peacock... that’s about it.

Seems like it could be a fun place. But...the staff didn't care that we were there and the beer was flat. At a busier time I'm sure it's better. We'll give it another try one of these days.

not bad, people there seemed very judgemental

Seriously … with a few simple tweaks, this place could quadruple the amount of money they make an increase customer satisfaction. But instead, they make you wait in a line of 40 people to get a simple drink that takes at least 45 minutes. So if you think this is the place to come, see a cool band have a few drinks you’re wrong. You’ll see a decent band every now and then but you’ll wait in line for 45 minutes to an hour every single time you come here so for whatever reason, the management doesn’t want to fix it and doesn’t wanna make 4×5 times the amount of money so be prepared to be frustrated if you want to drink

Nice spot. Good grub. Family friendly. Beer taps are a bit weak. Austin breweries need to deliver some freshness to this place.

First time trying this place. Fish sandwich was raw and mushy. Could only eat 2 bites. We asked the waitress to refund the fish sandwich only on our $100 tab but this is a prepaid type place. Everything else we ordered was fine. Not great but acceptable. She said they would refund the fish sandwich but never did and stopped coming by. Not the waitresses fault at all. She was very apologetic and tried to help us but it seems the owners just ignored the problem. We left with no resolution. Not going to chase them down to refund a measly $16 so we just left, but it still kinda stinks. Oh well. Cross em off the list I guess.

I came here to get dinner with my girlfriend the bartender said they were not serving chicken sandwiches which is a 1/4 of there dinner options so we got an 2 aparizers instead chips and salsa and mozzarella sticks. We also got one diet Coke and a water which came out to $20. When the food arrived I was furious to know that I paid $9 for store bought chips and jar salsa it was probably the worst chips and salsa I have ever eaten!

Had a great time ringing in 2025 with Suede. Best part is the surprised fireworks display.

We visited this establishment on 11/24. We had 4 beers total. I closed out my tab and tipped in cash. Today, I receive a message from my credit card that the tip looks odd because it is a 131% tip. Luckily, I was able to mark it as fraud since I in no way shape or form tipped $50 on a $38 bill. Check your credit card after leaving.

We asked our bartender which of their beers were local or from Texas. The server stated all beers were from Texas which doesn't make sense.... Guinness is not a Texas Beer. It is not even from the US. but I digress....

PARENTS BEWARE
I will HAPPILY update my review. As this place used to have great food, simple drinks and $5 craft beers.

They have dumped money everywhere, new pickle ball, turf on the patio, shade on the stage BUT

The playground shakes, is not secure, and it a true safety hazard. They also dumped a bunch of trash onto it, leaving fencing, a board with nails sticking up and broken glass cups everywhere while kids were playing.

The fence on the pickel ball court is not secure on the top, so kids where getting g clothes stuck and ripping as they played and climbed the fenced (though they shouldnt).

This place has so much potential but wow, they are just scraping by.

The food was also horrible. You can tell it is frozen and either cooked with freezer burn or defrosted and left to sit and then fried. Everything was mush and tasted like water. How fish n chips, wings, and tenders could all taste the same is sad.

I wish they’d invest where needed. We’d be here often as we are missing family, kid, dog friendly places with music drinks and food in the area.

Love the setting, especially the music, but some of the food is really, really bad. The ‘grilled cheese’ showed up with zero grilling - slices of white bread with very little cheese, microwaved, not grilled. Some of the Indian is really good, but the grilled cheese shouldn’t be on the menu if they can’t figure out basics.

If you come here do it for the drinks and either a band or sports on tv. Don’t come here to eat. We ordered a ton of food and most of the orders were wrong. All of them were cold and the burger, chicken sandwich, and chicken tenders were clearly heated up from frozen items. The Indian fusion and pizza were just ok and also cold.

Pickle ball courts are in pretty bad shape, but cheap so that helps. Big area for kids to run around I guess and the band was good.

Okay so I’ll start by saying this place has SO much potential. Lots of land, big space inside, great place and can be relaxing, and nice owners. Pickle ball courts and outdoor space for live music and little playground. BUT, this place just doesn’t seem ready yet and needs to make improvements before it’s really ready for more people to come and for me to come back. We have been here twice to give it a chance.

1. If you enjoy watching football or sports games and you’re a parent, it’s not a good spot. The little old playscape is very far away from the inside area, and they do not have any TVs outside, at least as of yet, so if you have a kid and intend to play with them outside or in the plays area while also watching sports or football, you cannot, as all of their TVs are inside the venue. I think this is such a missed opportunity for them because as a parent who also loves sports and football who has a toddler, this place has tons of great outside space but it isn’t being utilized as there are no TVs outside. Huge bummer.

2. It doesn’t seem like the owners really understand American sports, even though they appear to be “inviting people to come.” As said We have been here several times for NFL Sunday or longhorn games, and they do not have enough tables inside, so not have nearly enough staff or bartenders, and they only have ONE food runner. We were ordering simple things like fries or a beer, and it would take over a half hour to get to our table or longer, and sometimes we would even have to go up to the front to remind them that we had ordered something. The line to order a drink or fo is super long, and again, it’s only 1 or 2 workers. No one wants to wait in a long line when you’re trying to watch a game every time you’re ordering a drink, or if you’re at a table, it sucks to have drinks or food take so long. They can not handle a “game day” like a longhorns game or a NFL game - not nearly enough staff or tables, and again, all the space outside where they could be putting tables is empty with no TVs so it’s wasted. When we finally receive our food items 30-40 minutes wait each time they were often undercooked or cold.

Pros: the few people that own it seem really niche and Great, and they do try to accommodate and try hard.

Moral of the story: this place has great potential, but until they step up their game a little more and make these improvements that I think should be pretty simple (more staff, TVs outside) I don’t think we will be back.
