“Nice chill spot to kick it“

“My wife and I couldn’t be happier with our meal and the service at Dai Due. Everything we had was beyond delicious and we had a kind and attentive server who was able to answer our questions and her recommendations were on point. I highly recommend this wonderful restaurant!“

“Very Delicious and Great Location“

“Love it here! Fine dining in a relaxed atmosphere.“

“We visited "STELLA SAN JAC" during our Austin trip... and we had a great time. We tried several of the best and most inspiring cocktails we've ever tasted. Manager Edwin put us at ease with the best comfortable service, and every cocktail he recommended we were very impressed with. I will definitely recommend my friends to visit this place, I want to go back and try the cocktail again on my next business trip.“

“Great place to eat. Prime rib was great and the whipped potatoes were to die for. Mocktail was good, too! Jamie was very attentive and maintained a professional presence while being personable and assured I was comfortable and taken care of throughout the meal.“

“By far one of the best experiences I’ve ever had! The food is magnificent, atmosphere is perfect for fine dining and intimate dinner! My husband brought me here for my birthday Jan 6th and I’m still thanking him. Chef Erik Trotman took care of us and the servers were on point and very attentive. Go check them out for yourself, you definitely will love it!! I“

“Early dinner on a weeknight with reservations. Service was excellent!!! Our server was very attentive and made sure we were well taken care of and interactions with others in the restaurant were very positive. Food was great as well. I had a Wagyu cheeseburger and it was perfectly prepared and very tasty. Wife had chicken and mashed potatoes and she said they were excellent but mashed potatoes were a bit on the salty side. Overall we had a great experience and highly recommend Salty Sow!“

“If you're looking for a venue that goes above and beyond in terms of hospitality and service, look no further. The staff here are simply incredible - they are always on hand to help, and nothing is too much trouble for them. I recently had the pleasure of performing, and I have to say that I was blown away by the level of support that the staff provided. As a DJ, it can be stressful trying to set up and sound check your equipment, but the staff made the whole process a breeze. They were so helpful and accommodating, and they went out of their way to ensure that my performance went smoothly. But it's not just the music guests who receive exceptional treatment. The staff are attentive and friendly with everyone, making sure that each and every guest feels welcome and valued. All in all, I can't recommend them highly enough. If you're looking for a venue with an outstanding team of staff who will go above and beyond to make your experience unforgettable, then look no further.“

“Food was amazing and great place too“

“Delicious brunch. Every dish we ordered was beyond my expectations!“

“Was treated here today, every single dish was over the top. The food was exquisite and delicious. The staff was so friendly and they have such a family atmosphere.“

“Wow que comida!!!! Deliciosa, diferente. Servicio único, limpio, impecable DE LO MEJOR!!!“

“The food is great, but the staff is the best thing about this place. They are entirely attentive and charming. Their attitude is top notch and this makes for a quality atmosphere. The restaurant also has quality deals throughout the week and I enjoyed my time there.“

“After ogling over Murray's food pics on insta for what seems like over a year, I finally decided to take my steak lovin' hubs here for a birthday surprise dinner.

First must I say the ambiance was job well done. You first walk in like... oh nice, what a clean tavern. Few steps further into the dining area and you're like... whoa who would have thought you you could class up a tavern?! Like a gamesman sporty classy if that makes any sense.

Steak Frites Night was the reason we came but let me tell you the other dishes rose to the occasion. The hubs upgraded to the prime rib which does also upgrade price, but every bite was still worth it.

The portions for the prime rib and pasta were quite generous. With 2 younger kiddos, myself, and husband, we still had leftovers to go home.

Speaking of having kiddos at a tavern you ask? We went at early dinner time so I feel like it was still conducive to a family vibe.

You know a good restaurant when you're writing a review and can't wait to go back. Three Martini Lunch Fridays and Happy Hours 3-5p, watch out I'm coming back for ya.“

“A true Austin experience and the best staff, in total, that I have encountered in a long time. The staff and the retro setting set a really unique vibe in the restaurant. Food was very good with the spanish octopus and the rib eye being the highlights. Good, well selected wine list (even if markup is a little high) and a great bar program (Secret Beach on tap at a restaurant....thought I was dreaming).

Chelsea (Manager) was patient with my indoor / outdoor table change requests, despite being a very busy night. Our server was knowledgeable, attentive but not disruptive, and just plain cool....in fact I would say that about all of the serving staff.

Overall one of my best fine dining experiences in Austin. BTW, the outside patio is perfect.“

“Great food, atmosphere, tradition, family, UT football, fun times!“

“Had the Spinach & Feta white omelette with red potatoes. Soooo delicious. Loved the potatoes because they didn’t leave a heavy feeling after. The omelette is really light, which is great. Bloody Mary, yum. Overall, extremely happy. Thank you!“

“Good was DELISH!! Music was CRAP! We’re Mexican sooo we wanted Peso Pluma #ThatDidntHapen But as cooky that THEY are Food, Drinks and place are INSANE! If ur a foodie COME it’s all about 🫵🏽“

“Really enjoyed this! The only reason for 4 stars is there were a couple of dishes that weren't as delicious as the others. Highly recommend the Ants on a Log salad. The MASH game on the back of the menu makes for a great date activity.“

“It was wonderful and fresh!!! Best customer service I've ever had.“

“It was wonderful to be able to dine out yesterday and find so many clean options on the menu. Your transparency about the ingredients used and commitment to offering truly healthy options made it easy for us to trust you. We appreciated the customizations made. The food was absolutely tasty! We will definitely be back. Thank you so much!!“

“Our family of 6 went to celebrate my husband’s birthday . The ambiance was beautiful and the service was outstanding. We were familiar with the chef from winning Top Chef and it was high on our Austin visit to dine at this restaurant. The experience was lovely, the food innovative & artistically presented , more importantly.. absolutely delicious! Our family loves to share plates , so this was perfect . Arlo Grey made a very memorable evening for all of us and we Thank You very much! Looking forward to another experience on a next visit in town❤️“

“Sooo savory and so good. Went for a walk in the Hyde Park neighborhood this evening and decided to stop by here on the way home. Really glad we did. Eating it right now at home. Got the “Steak and Zab” and the “Keto Fried Chicken” – both with veggies. Seems I read that they are adding a ricotta cheese sauce to some items and it IS Really tasty. Hits the spot. You are missing the boat if you do not give these folks a try. Great alternative to cooking at home ! Heck, great alternative to your favorite local restaurant.“

“Gimme Burger is one of the best burgers in Austin, but the fried okra is THE BEST OKRA YOU WILL EVER HAVE. And, the service from this food truck is better than 80% of the brick-and-mortar restaurants in town; seriously, it’s a refreshing reprieve from the transplant diluted culture of Austin.“

“Kimber was our server and she was absolutely amazing! This was my first time in Austin, and she went above and beyond with great recommendations that made our visit even better. Her energy was so warm and welcoming — she made us feel right at home. If you get the chance, definitely ask for Kimber!“

“I was treated to the most delicious Birthday Brunch at June's. It was my first time there, and as a designer my friend was right, I appreciated every detail in food presentation down to the monogram on the plates. Excellent original food and customer service. Highly recommend!!“

“An egganomical, tasty, Austin experience. Been eating here since the mid 80s.“

“The salads are delicious and filling.“

“The food is very well executed and presented, the staff are very attentive.“

“From start to finish, this dining experience was absolutely perfect. Our waiter was easy to talk to and knowledgeable of the menu. The starters were probably my favorite, but everything we ordered was flavored to perfection. We will be back“

“We had a wonderful evening!! Beautiful ambience, food and service!!“

“From the exceptional service to the unforgettable atmosphere and mouthwatering food Lonesome Dove is a must-visit! If you haven’t been yet, you’are seriously missing out!“

“If you are looking for quality food with a great atmosphere, a place where you can enjoy the energy of 6th street and have a conversation…this is the place. Our drinks were refreshing and the menu interesting. We settled on their cheeseburger, one of the best I’ve ever had. Next time there will be oysters!“

“I don't live in Austin I live in Midland but whenever I am there this is where I would like to go I have had the brisket it's the best ever“

“Stop in for a Pastrami breakfast sandwich, it’s 🔥 amazing!“

“Beautiful ambience and fresh delicious food!“

“First timers here and we love the atmosphere!“

“Tonight we dined at Maie Day and Josh was an exceptional server from start to finish! It was our first time at the restaurant and he walked us through everything on how to order and when. Our cups and plates never went empty and he had fabulous recommendations. He went above and beyond with my 2 year old nephew. My nephew stayed well-behaved for 2.5 hours so we could all enjoy ourselves thanks to the bowls of ice Josh would bring periodically for him to chomp on. Everyone left happy and full of phenomenal food and drink. We are still blown away that we could dine for over 2.5 hours with a 2 year old with no problems. We are ready to recommend Maie Day to all of our friends - I hope they have Josh as their server when they go!“

“The service was fast and friendly. The food was absolutely delicious! The best breakfast my wife and I have ever had!“

“Delicious food and outstanding service. Two managers came by to ask if we needed anything, and were happy to change the meal a member of our party ordered because it was too spicy.“

“The BEST brunch in Austin. Do not miss the chicken fried steak and waffles!“

“Considering that I'm a vegetarian and this is (obviously) a very meat-y restaurant, this was a very good experience. Staff were friendly and welcoming, the decor is elegant, the semi-outdoor seating was pleasantly breezy on a hot day (I could do without the huge TVs, but that's me). I simply wanted to get a quick drink with an old friend and we chose Carve purely because of its location. We arrived during their happy hour (which starts at 3:00). We ordered a couple of tasty cocktails and an order of the cheesy cauliflower sticks -- delicious! The happy hour prices certainly made me happy, and the charming waiter checked back in at sensible intervals and remained good humored and attentive even when it must have become obvious that we were not going to be ordering more. I noticed that the menu includes some attractive vegetarian/vegan options and will bear Carve in mind for family celebration meals where there are carnivores as well as vegetarians to feed. My only complaint, if you can call it that, is that they failed to include the tip I thought I'd added to the credit card slip and I realized when I checked my account that I hadn't left a tip at all -- apologies if that was my fault!!“

“Had a great time, amazing service (Katie deserves a raise) great food, great drinks. Will make a trip back for sure, next time I’m in town.“

“Great diner, the pancake the size of your head was the perfect serving size. Their homemade sausage was good too.“

“As always, for many years we’ve dined at Jeffrey’s and we are very pleased with the service and of course our food. Can’t say enough!“

“My friends and I went tonight for the first time to celebrate a friends birthday. The atmosphere was exquisite, staff was impeccable, food was amazing and the Manager Elliot was so awesome!!! For the dining experience we had, they should be charging 2-3x more for their food and we would gladly pay it. It is a small restaurant so reservations are needed to make sure they have availability. I highly recommend The Carillon Restaurant, it’s truly a gem. We will be back very soon 😋“

“The food and service was excellent!“

“Amazing food! Excellent service! Great atmosphere! Thank you to the team at Phoebe's Diner downtown for their awesome hospitality!“
