“Excellent! Great service & excellent food! Order the brussel sprouts!!! We had a few different dishes (marinated olives w/whipped feta, chicken kebobs,crab cakes, crispy potatoes,salmon, ahí tuna..etc) but the stand out for me hands down were the brussel sprouts. I really look forward to visiting this place again!!!!!“
“I had the pleasure of being served by Metin during my recent visit, and I must say, his professionalism and efficiency were truly outstanding. From the moment we arrived, Metin made us feel incredibly welcome and well taken care of. His prompt service ensured that we never had to wait long for anything, and his attention to detail ensured that our needs were met without hesitation. Overall, our experience was greatly enhanced by Metin's excellent service, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience.“
“Best food in Austin….no question about it. I wish Google let me give 10 stars. This was the best meal I’ve ever had in my life and I like to consider myself a food snob. Along with the exceptional quality of food, Phil provided exceptional service. We got a bottle of wine and didn’t refill our own glass once (on a packed night nonetheless) Ask for Phil and you’ll have a taste of a Luxury dining experience.P.s. get the a crab cake. Thank me later“
“When they say kid friendly they mean it. My husband and I got to enjoy a nice dinner while the staff doted on our daughter. Everything was perfect. Great last meal of our vacation!Kid-friendliness: They have a 3 course kids menu that is so special and thoughtful. Perfect place to celebrate a special occasion with the family. The staff seem to authentically like kids too.“
“This place is wonderful! Everyone is so incredibly nice and knows the menu so well. They make you feel welcomed.We had our anniversary dinner here and they gave us champagne and salad on the house.The food was extremely delicious! Every single bite of it. Best steak I’ve had. The caviar bites and tamale were amazing too! Coming back for sure.“
“I cannot say enough about how impressed I was with my experience here! Such a wonderful server and the food was absolute delicious the crab cake, oysters, mushrooms, creamed spinach, filet, and billionaire potato were top tier. I’ll be back in Austin next month and absolutely will be dining again!“
“What an experience!! This place deserves all of the hype and is definitely worth every penny!! My boyfriend surprised me with dinner here for our anniversary, and the staff went above and beyond to make it such a magical and memorable night!!We started with some champagne, and then got the “nice spice” and another cocktail I don’t remember the name of but they were delicious and had so manny different flavor profiles.We ordered two of the warm crab tarts and they were delightful. My boyfriend ordered the halibut and it came with this smoked butter sauce that was absolutely to die for. I ordered the 8oz dry aged wagyu steak, it was so amazing, who knew you could pack so much flavor into a meal! We will definitely be back and will recommend to all of our familly and friends! Can’t wait to come back!! Thank you to the entire Hestia staff!!“
“"Cypress Grill is an absolute gem! From the moment you step in, the inviting atmosphere sweeps you away. The decor is charming, and the staff are incredibly friendly and attentive. But the real star of the show is the food. Every dish bursts with flavor and freshness, showcasing the chef's mastery of Louisiana cuisine. Whether you're indulging in their perfectly seasoned seafood or savoring their mouthwatering Cajun classics, every bite is a culinary delight. Plus, the portions are generous, ensuring you leave satisfied every time. Cypress Grill is truly a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Southern hospitality and delicious, comforting fare."“
“I had a sensational experience at Este recently. Everything I had was absolutely smashing. The tamarind agua Fresca was lightly sweet and refreshingly sour. I tad the tuna tiradito and am still thinking about the charred allium sauce it was served with. The swordfish tacos were a revelation, the batter was similar to a light and crispy tempura. The lime semifreddo was a creative take on a key lime pie, and the mango tamarind gelato was real treat. I sat at the bar by myself, so I got to chat with the staff throughout my meal. They were attentive and clearly passionate about their work, and most importantly, I could tell from the way they interacted with one another that Este fosters a thoughtful and supportive culture. They were so helpful and gracious with each other, acting as a real team. I was so impressed overall, and I can’t wait for my next visit!“
“My family has to beg me to go outside and eat or even eat a food truck. We just left church to go eat as a big family with friends so I was out voted and thank god I was.I loved everything I ate. I was able to sample like 6 things since everyone got something different.The staff was so friendly too and genuinely seemed happy that we were satisfied. You could tell they cared.I’ll definitely return and since I travel through Austin for work I know where I’ll grab a quick bite.The young girl working was very sweet to us and even took a photo with my family as she was on one of my favorite shows.This place was a 10Lovely“
“Our favorite restaurant by far. Food and Service are always excellent. Stone Crab Claws a must- so delicious. Overall wonderful experience every time. This was our first time for the Easter Brunch. We did think there would be some special features for Easter, but it was the regular menu. Fortunately, we love everything on the regular menu, so it was no big deal. The carrot cake at Trulucks is the best we've ever had, so dessert topped off Easter brunch!“
“By far this restaurant food / staff & even management deserve the highest accolades. To be honest this place was not our original destination for a Birthday celebration but, due to unforseen circumstances we had to divert plans and ended up in quit possibly the best turn of fortunes by coming to Eddie V's. We were lucky enough to secure reservations last minute and upon our arrival were treated as if we quite possibly owned a share of the restaurant ( We do not ) the lovely hostess was kind enough to provide the women of our party ( One being the one celebrating her Birthday ) each with a single long stem red rose to celebrate the occasion. In a brief amount of time we were seated at a phenomenal area of the restaurant only to find a card on the table with a hand written Happy Birthday proclamation. The service was prompt and personable which was greatly appreciated & the staff worked in a well orchestrated manner to suit our every need. It was such a wonderful experience to have the manager Mary come over to personally check on us and provide a sincere and thoughtful conversation to our party. That in and of itself made this worth the visit but, as this is a restaurant the topic of this review should be the food of which every single item that was ordered from the filets to the lobster tails and even the special that night of halibut were exquisite. The items were well seasoned , flavorful and prepared to the requested parameters. I can not say enough good about how appetizing it all was. This place is stellar and sets an exemplary standard that I wish other " Fine dining " establishments could live up to. This place will now rank as one of my top referrals for anyone who will listen ! Once again .... Thank You Mary & staff for the undeniably amazing experience !!!!!“
“3 Amigos Ceviche was really delicious with lots of very tender octopus! Aguachile verde with nice big shrimp definitely has some heat and was a generous portion. Owner gave us a taste of their soup too (thank you!!) which was a nice hot treat on a chilly day.“
“Milo and Fatih were our servers and they were wonderful! Ask for them. The food was marvelous - street corn ribs and tuna appetizers, mom had the sea bass which was divine and I had the steak salad - also wonderful. Great flavors and texture. I like how they redecorated the restaurant. Great place on the lake. Oh and the berry cobbler was so good! Great decaf espresso (yay decaf.) Thank you for a great night out!“
“The food was amazing, the steaks were cooked exactly as ordered. The au gratin potatoes were delicious. The service and attention to detail were truly 5 star. 100 times better than the other well known steak house we were at the night before.“
“Garrison at the Fairmont Hotel exceeds expectations. The food delivers , the flavor profile of Texas BBQ delivered as a fine dining experience. The wood burning cooking really takes everything up a notch . The setting is hip & the service impeccable.?❤️“
“The lobster buccatini is luscious. The pear tart is outstanding. We tried the oyster shooters thinking they were o. The half shell. It was a shot glass with an oyster in it. Being on the appetizer menu it was more booze than anything and the flavors didn't meld well. Should had it's own section and noted as an actual shot. Sometimes you'll get seated next to families with kids so expect that. The service typically very good“
“I went to French Quarter Grille yesterday for the first time, the food was great, the service was adaquate and the prices were moderate, while it's nice to have a Cajun restaurant in my neck of the woods (Northeast Austin) it's unfortunately not one of the best Cajun restaurants I've been to.“
“Very helpful staff.The food was well done and flavorful. The ceviche was outstanding. The red snapper filets were pretty thick.The restaurant has a nice decor and there is plenty of room between the tables.It was a good choice and we'll be back.“
“Went for the hot pot lunch and had an excellent meal and experience. The foods are fresh and colorful and tasty. Our server explained the hot pot process in detail and helped us as needed.This is a really cool place for lunch with a group or to sit at the bar. There are plenty of options for meats and veggies to satisfy everyone.Lots of easy free parking too so that’s a big plus.“
“Looking to satisfy your craving for authentic Cajun cuisine right here in Austin? Look no further than Everything New Orleans food truck! After a glowing recommendation from a trustworthy source, my barber Tyler, a New Orleans native, I decided to give this food truck a try, and I was not disappointed.I ordered the gumbo with a mix of chicken, sausage, and shrimp, along with sides of potato salad and cornbread. The flavors brought me straight back to the vibrant streets of New Orleans, with each bite bursting with authenticity and deliciousness.The gumbo was a true standout, rich and flavorful with the perfect blend of spices. The combination of chicken, sausage, and shrimp added layers of complexity to the dish, making it a hearty and satisfying choice. The potato salad was creamy and well-seasoned, providing a cool contrast to the spicy gumbo. The cornbread was the perfect accompaniment, with a moist and crumbly texture that complemented the meal perfectly.Everything New Orleans food truck truly delivers on its promise of bringing the flavors of the Big Easy to Austin. The food is prepared with care and attention to detail, resulting in a dining experience that is both delicious and authentic.If you're in the mood for some Cajun comfort food that will transport you to the bayous of Louisiana, be sure to pay a visit to Everything New Orleans food truck. Your taste buds will thank you!“
“I had an exceptional dining experience at Salt Traders!From the moment we walked in, Larry, our server, made us feel welcome and valued. His extensive knowledge of the menu truly enhanced our meal; he guided us through each dish with expertise, ensuring we made the perfect selections.Not only was Larry knowledgeable, but he also added a delightful touch of humor to our dining experience, making us feel right at home. The food was exquisite, perfectly prepared and presented with care.The ambiance was inviting and cozy, creating the ideal atmosphere for a memorable meal. I highly recommend Salt Traders to anyone seeking top-notch cuisine and impeccable service. Larry truly made our visit unforgettable, and we can't wait to return. Five stars all around!“
“Just perfect! Our staff and food was amazing! I could not say one thing that needs approving! Top restaurant with friendly people who have a passion for what they do! It was an amazing experience! Well done!! - the chicken fried lobster was something special!“
“What a wonderful place if I may start off! Was seated down immediately and the menu was properly explained to us. Didn’t wait too long for our food to arrive.The seafood itself if I may be honest, wasn’t exactly the top tier quality I expected from past reviews. But man, the sauce was incredible! I got the Lemon Pepper Medium spice and it was just absolutely the perfect amount of tang and spice I needed. Totally made the food a much better eating experience. Size of the Crab Legs and Shrimp I got was appropriately sized.Our waiter Terry, was great! If you come in and he’s your waiter and man! The restaurant also gave us a couple of beignets to try which was a nice gesture.Overall when you come here, expect great sauce, great waiters, and a welcoming atmosphere! Price is as expected for a seafood boil (around $40 a person) and quality is hugely dependent on the season (which in our case, the season of crawfish and etc isnt the best right now). But would recommend anyone to give this place a shot ?“
“This I our second time coming to this establishment and they were just as amazing as the first time. The atmosphere is amazing and versatile. This is can be a perfect spot for a date, or a business meeting, or even just hanging out with friends. They offer a verity of food. You will see the basics like pork bell all the way to exotic items like octopus. And on top of that, the staff is amazing and super friendly. If I could rate this a 9/5 I would.“
“Beautiful place with ample parking and seating, unusual in Austin from my experience. Had a love lunch here with my wife. The food was delicious and the service great. Very attentive and knowledgeable, regularly checking in on us but without being overwhelming. Would love to eat here again when we're back in this part of town.“
“Had such a great experience here! Sat outside on a windy chilly night and the heaters were very warm and the screens blocked out the wind really well. Also no street noise + the layout of the restaurant keeps it from getting too noisy. The actual parking lot is kind of small and gets crowded around dinner time, but there's a paid public parking garage right across the street with lots of space. Paid $7 for 3 hour parking in the garage. The food and drinks were AMAZING. Luke recommended dishes/portions and was very knowledgeable about each dish. Would 100% recommend getting the Makum. Phenomenal dish. Tostadas with Sauces and vegetarian enchilada option were amazing as well. Everything was very well-made and had tons of flavor. Coconut horchata was also great! Service was very fast and everyone was incredibly kind. Luke and the host standing at front of the restaurant were very friendly and took great photos! Definitely a must-try Austin restaurant“
“This food truck is INSIDE Still Austin Whiskey Co | they use buzzers for you to pick up your food | their food is fresh and made to order (so come with patience) everything eas cooked to perfection - the burgers was perfect and fries were crispy on the outside and soft and mealy on the inside | definitely “
“It's a fun, largely family-style restaurant. We had the steak fajitas which were delicious, and then had the banana crepe flambé for dessert which was both delicious and a great show. Servers were both great (had two servers for shift change)“
“Knocked everything out of the park! Fried pickles, hushpuppies, and corn nuggets were perfect! Fried Shrimp and Catfish hit the spot and were super fresh. Gumbo was better than most but not amazing. Such a good spot for any occasion and everything is super well priced. $60 for 2 ppl not going light with anything. Can't beat it for real, and our server DeAndra was amazing!“
“I have been going here since the 90’s when they were Houston’s. The food has always been consistently over the top in looks, taste, quality & freshness. The best wait staff in town that always treats you like a king. Please never change!“
“This place was warm and welcoming, very cute and dim for a relaxing atmosphere. The service was excellent. Our table was birthday decorated and they offered a birthday desert. Our server, Matt, was friendly, engaging and knowledgeable. The food, I have mixed feelings about. The fish was very fresh and well cooked. We got the Chilean sea bass and almond crusted trout. The crab cake was absolutely delicious. So they have the fresh seafood bit down. Everything else was underwhelming. The mushroom risotto was kind of just salty mush, the mashed potatoes were stiff and the fried rice was good. It wasn’t terribly expensive for what it was, so I was not disappointed at all. Overall it was a good experience.“
“Reem was an amazing server she was attentive and kind told her about are trip to the mountains and Katlyn helped me on the phone with the reservation seating she was super helpful the food was so good but the fettuccine was ok and the pork chop was perfect I had a black berry sangria it was the best thing ever over all the service was top tier and the food was great thanks reem for the amazing service“
“This was our first time visiting. The food was really good (Except for the portion is on the smaller side). But our waiter seemed like he was in a hurry, he took my husband’s plate while he was still eating his fries, and brought the check directly instead of asking if we wanted dessert. Other than that everything was great, will come back again.“
“Every time we come to Austin the first stop is Pappasito’s. Food and service is always outstanding. Tonight Nicholas was our waiter, he’s one of the best waiters we’ve ever had! Never needed anything he was always ahead of the game. Thanks Nick for a great experience!“
“Some people complain about the lack of space. Sadly, you can't help that every one and their mother wants to eat at this place now. The food is just that good. Service is quick from the time you order.Authentic sizchuan and other tasty Chinese dishes. I recommend the mapo tofu, spicy pork pot, dry pot, greenbeans, and the pork ribs are to die for.“
“Their burger and fries shocked us -- agreed it was the BEST BURGER we've had in Austin in a very long time.Bartender was absolutely swamped that evening (SXSW) and was crushing it with a smile. The Perfect Negroni was expertly crafted and served beautifully. Thanks for an unexpected treat of an evening.We'll be back ?“
“Everything about this place is incredible. It is delicious and authentic to all of us Northeasters who love our lobster and seafood. The Bar Harbor is the best value — sooo much lobster meat! Great value. Clean space, bright, friendly staff and service. Thank you!“
“Incredible food, cooked fresh and the nicest owner. I got the shan noodles and green tea salad. Both were outstanding! This combination of flavors is hard to come by in Austin.There’s a tent and tables in the back if you want to dine there.“
“This restaurant was all-around fantastic. We were a little skeptical that a seafood restaurant so far from the ocean would be good, but they did not disappoint. Every item - from the appetizers to sushi rolls to main dishes - were delicious and visually appealing. Great atmosphere and service as well. We felt very welcome here - not rushed. Highly recommend!“
“Great drink selections, the lobster Mac and cheese/ lobster mozzarella balls/ crab cakes are amazing! The staff is great and the place is clean and spacious (outdoor seating available, even with heaters). I highly Great drink selections, the lobster Mac and cheese/ lobster mozzarella balls/ crab cakes are amazing! The staff is great and the place is clean and spacious (outdoor seating available, even with heaters). I highly recommend coming here! coming here!“
“Room 725 is a beautiful spot with a panoramic view of the city. The drinks are delightful and everything we had was a treat ? especially the lobster claws and Caviar which had a sauce that was divine and the tuna carpaccio melted in a flavorful bite. I wouldn't order the vegan Caviar again. It reminded me of Boba and didn't have enough saltiness to mimic Caviar making it pretty bland. Also it's a champagne and Caviar bar so don't expect to leave full but you will have a delicious time.“
“Chengdu chilli chicken was yummy if you like spicy red chilies in your chicken. It also had asparagus beans and carrots in it. Also tried hot and sour soup was deliciousPeople were very friendly and welcoming great vibe. Checks all boxes for a nice Chinese place right around the corner“
“My wife and I enjoyed our Anniversary dinner. We started of with appetizer crab fingers and it was absolutely amazing. She had for dinner the Chef Special Fried Blue Crab and I had the Fired Platter and both was hot and fresh and taste amazing. Our server was spot on and the Gm Stefania came by and did a table check. Great experience this is why we always come back!“
“I left so stuffed and satisfied. I probably gained 3lbs as they had the most delicious desserts (key lime pie!!!, chocolate torte, and a blackberry compote with vanilla cake). Plus their oysters were so flavorful, fresh and just scrumptious. Highly recommend their lobster bisque. In addition to the food, their staff was so knowledgeable, friendly, professional, and customer care oriented.“
“Hands down the best crawfish I’ve ever had! The people are so friendly, the atmosphere is wonderful, the flavor is amazing and boy are they spicy if you want it! There’s a bar next to the food truck to get drinks and there’s restrooms! Highly “
“We recently had the pleasure of dining at Pappadeaux and the young server, Curtis, truly made the experience exceptional! From his warm greeting to his attentive service throughout the meal, Curtis went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was nothing short of fantastic. His knowledge of the menu was impressive, and he offered great recommendations that suited our tastes perfectly. I highly recommend Curtis and this Pappadeaux location for their outstanding service and looking forward to returning to dine here again soon!“
“I have loved Garbo's since they were a food truck that roamed the streets of downtown Austin. My favorite lobster roll in town (don't tell Clark's). Heidi, Sam, and Hannah have done a tremendous job expanding into the far reaches of our metro.“
“I enjoyed this food more than my trip to Canje. Oxtails were tender, coated with sauce and incredibly flavorful. Beef patty, although more closely resembling a large empanada, was stuffed with beef and had a pastry that was also super flavorful and flaky. Peas and rice under the oxtails slapped. Plantains were the perfect sweet bite in between to break up all the rich flavors. 10/10 recommend.“
“Clark's is such a special spot. I personally don't love sitting inside because they have such a cozy little patio and I love sitting out there on a cool evening as the sun begins to set. It's surrounded by trees, warm lights, and neon signs. But we snagged a last minute reservation and all that was available was standard seating. They really set the mood as the evening progresses with the tea light candles and dimmed lights. We were greeted and seated immediately. Carrie was our waitress and she was friendly, attentive, warm and so easy going. It had been a while since I had dinner here but I knew I wanted crudo plate, it is probably my favorite item from the cold bar. Clark's is a treat. If you're on vacation in ATX, it's a must. Or on any day where you feel like having the freshest, delectable seafood.“
