On god. The best burger I've ever had. Kind caring service. 10/10. Nothing better at 9pm then a perfectly cooked and garnished burger. Not too fancy not too simple. Just perfect.

Yum. Had the Croque Madame. Perfect with my grapefruit mimosa. Saving this place for a future visit

Slow service, cold food, poor service. Many orders were wrong and when sent back, the second burger was not cooked. Would not recommend to anyone. A joke. Even the food was just alright, nothing special at all.

Red hot burger alert! There aren't many things on L'estelle House's menu, but the edited version is clearly what they do well. Went to a few different places on Rainey on a slow Wednesday night looking for food and nothing did it for us until we went back to L'estelle House's lil' window (we had viewed it before going somewhere else, sat down at said somewhere else, and then ultimately decided we wanted a burger and fries from L'estelle). First off, the guys that work there are funny and personable - and after peeking at their IG, you can see that's kind of their thing, plus they do a question of the day post randomly where if you're the first to comment with the right answer you get the featured menu item. What a quirky exchange and I liked it. I wish the price of the burger came with a smattering of fries, but each item is a la carte and it is a weeee bit pricey, but once you sink your teeth into them, all your wallet worries dissipate. The burger is outstanding. I'd add it to top five in Austin. It's simple, yet executed well. Everything from the bun to the cheese to the veggie toppings to the patty combine for dynamite bite after dynamite bite. I think the mustard aioli is the secret to giving it that je ne sais quoi. The fries are on another level. They are dusted with some kind of spice and then drizzled with some queso (just the right amount!) and served alongside a dill-y housemade ranch. You only need one order of these to share, as they are a bit decadent and not just your average side of fries. The other best part of L'estelle House is it shares a patio with The Drafting House, so you get live music (most nights) and wine or beer to pair with your eats!

LOVED this place! Just stopped by for some drinks and to listen to some live jazz music that we heard from the street. My buddy had some awful biscuits and gravy earlier inn the day, tried the homemade ones here and they were perfect. Best hot cocoa I have ever had, Not on the menu but they said we can make it. Chocolate croissant was unbelievably Rich is fantastic. People serving were all friendly and on top of their game.

Arrived on saturday afternoon - music was being played by a band which was a good feature- menu options were limited - more brunch style - but tasty. Staff taking orders were not especially friendly which was not my experience elsewhere in Austin but the Manager ( I assume he was ! ) was friendly. Mainly outdoor seating options

Visiting from chicago and stumbled upon this place. Awesome little brunch spot. Food and coffee were great. Staff could not have been nicer.

We were exploring Rainey Street and decided to check this place out for a bite of food. Ordered the brioche French toast since the salmon tartine from Yelp photos wasn't on the menu. The patio seating area is gorgeous (very common in Austin I'm realizing). String lights and succulents. As an added bonus, the bar is in a separate building in the back, and has a stage for live music. My friend grabbed a Bloody Mary and caught the band leader enjoying some biscuits and gravy before the next set. She said he ordered 2 servings of it so it must be good. The French toast was nice, soft and topped with fresh cream and berries. It wasn't too sweet and came with 4 half slices. The Bloody Mary was good according to my friend. All this while enjoying live music on a sunny Austin afternoon? I was happy.

Cozy little hipster cafe & bar, live music at 1pm (see picture), family friendly (during the day), partially covered sitting area.Tagging to return at a future time :)
Y’allllllll L’estelle House is DELICIOUS! Come down here for brunch ASAP because you will be taken on a journey of flavor and freshness. I write this while eating the incredibly savory and fresh Spinach Feta Quiche with pine nuts and side of arugula... the dressing itself had me dancing in my chair. I’m sad as I only have one bite left. Anyway, y’all just need to come down here some time for brunch, or dinner! You will be dancing in your chairs too, I guarantee! The service is fast and friendly and the atmosphere is calming. Don’t miss out on this hidden gem on Rainey Street!

This was a very cool place to get drinks, awesome space and live music, a nice back bar and a great backyard, didn't get to try the cocktails but they looked good, good beer selection and good prices.
