I can not believe we paid $70 for 2 dry, tasteless hamburgers and a french fries! There was absolutely nothing condiment wise on the burger, it was so dry. The menu on the website and pictures is nothing like the reality of this place. The website would lead you to believe it’s fine dining with great choices, it is not. Our server, while friendly was not trained, he wasn’t sure about happy hour prices and items, even after bringing us a card with the happy hour food on it. He came back one time about one minute after our food came to see if everything was good. I told him I did not know I had not had a chance to try it yet, so come back in a bit…never saw him again. My husband went most of his meal with now ice tea, thankfully there was water. Coke comes in a can, that’s classy. Went to Torchy’s Tacos the next day, never ate at TR again during our stay.

How does this place have 4.1 stars? It is part of the resort so you’d expect near fine dining but it’s anything but. The building itself needs to be updated and it’s clear the dining room is converted from banquet halls, is an awkward layout. The waiters are all international which is cool except they cannot answer simple questions about the menu, make recommendations, and forget about asking anything regarding wine.

Lastly, the food is wholly underwhelming. There is a breakfast buffet that runs $25/pp and is what you’d get at a holiday inn free breakfast. We offered breakfast ala carte and it was okay, nothing horrible but nothing special.

Another day we got the meat and cheese board which was served is plastic cups with lids.. horrible presentation but even worse the prosciutto was old and discolored. It’s was not good and cost $30. Additionally, the cocktails are fine but nothing outstanding and are $20 each. Even a basic Jack & Coke was over $15.

Lastly, we ordered bbq.. Meat was dry with very little flavor, beans tasted like they were dumped out of a can.

DON’T waste a meal here, there are so many other, better choices.

Beautiful view. Service needs a bit more training.

Absolutely horrendous. The food was something a toddler could cook for the price of a downtown austin restaurant.

Was looking for a nice dinner for a family get together, but the restaurant is not what it once was. Fly in a $20 glass of wine. Bone in the spare ribs broken into many small pieces. All the other dishes (shrimp and grits, smoked salmon, and sausage) were all mediocre and overpriced. I would say you’re paying for the view, but when the restaurant was practically empty and we requested a table by the window, the hostess said it was reserved and sat us at the back of the restaurant. 2 hours later after our meal, the restaurant was still almost empty with many window tables. The resort has always been beautiful and top notch, but there are plenty of fine dining restaurants in Lakeway and Lake Travis area. Save yourself an experience like this and try nicer local restaurants.

Food was really awful. Ordered the watermelon salad and what arrived was five pieces of arugula with a mound of watermelon on top that was so soaked in vodka I could not even eat it. No other flavor came through on the salad besides vodka. And it was $18. Most side salads are typically twice the size of that and it was supposed to me a main dish. The rest of the table was not impressed either. Vegetables were cooked badly and the ravioli was not enjoyable. Extremely pricey for low quality food. Our server was super nice and helpful but I will definitely not be returning.

Dietary restrictions: There are no vegan dishes on the menu. With a dairy allergy it was difficult to eat here. The modified watermelon salad with no feta was my only option.

Service and food were both fantastic. Helmar was knowledgeable of the menu and offered helpful suggestions.

We live in the area and we’re looking for somewhere new for breakfast. The staff was VERY FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL. Unfortunately they were only offering a buffet. I’ve had stomach surgery and can’t eat more than a saucer of food at a time so paying for a buffet is a solid pass. The team there didn’t even know that I had that but offered the main menu anyway. Again I’m super appreciative of that; however the food was just not good. My husband got the chicken and waffles. He said it was just frozen fried chicken and the waffle was so sugary. I had eggs and hash browns. Well I was not expecting a hash brown like you can get at McDonald’s. The view and ambiance were great. We won’t be back for meals.

Salmon was under cooked and portion was ok. Menu was limited and some of the descriptions of the entries were not what was brought out. Cocktail was ok. View on the deck was nice overlooking the pool.

Server was nice but was very slow and not attentive. Drinks took awhile. Entrees came out the same time as appetizers. Pork chop was dry and by the time server came back to ask how everything was, my guest had finished eating so I didn’t order anything else. About 20 min after we left, he threw up his food, so that was crappy. Bad meat (he had the short rib). Pretty restaurant and view, but ambiance is very dated. Lots of wasted space. Dinner menu is limited. Wish I had better things to say!

Breakfast is overrated and over priced. Hashbrowns are what you get at McDonalds.

Wanted to have a nice Mothers Day Day brunch. I set reservations and called to confirm they were doing a normal brunch for Mother’s Day. However when we arrived they changed the menu to a buffet brunch and without any other options we were forced to overpay about $100 per person. The management wasn’t very concerned or seem to care much. Food was ok, but I was specifically looking to not have a buffet.
They need to work on communication and probably putting information on the website about special occasions which affects their menus and their experience.
I live close by and won’t be dining here again
