“My wife and I travel frequently to Austin and have for a number of years. With two of our children here, we have dined out at many of Austin's finest restaurants. I am a partner in a number of businesses in Sonoma County, California, including golf courses, theaters and a restaurant. I am rarely motivated to write a restaurant review, particularly a glowing review. My wife found Oz. Tap House online and it was very close to our hotel. My personal experience with tap houses is that they have great beer, but mediocre food and generally less than mediocre service. I went online and looked at the menu, still not particularly enthusiastic. But I decided to place a dinner order for my wife and I and was immediately blown away by the online ordering system. Virtually every menu item can be custom ordered in a dizzying variety of ways. I even remarked to my wife that it was the finest online ordering software that I had ever seen. But ordering is one thing and execution is another. My wife ordered the Oz. House Burger (Beef), cooked medium, substituting lettuce wrap for the bun and adding avocado with a small avocado jalapeno side salad. Again, the customization options were many. I ordered the Charcuterie Pretzel and a Side Caesar Salad, with no croutons. I knew the restaurant was only a couple of minute drive, but even then the speed of the announcement of the projected pickup time and the time itself was amazing; less than 15 minutes. When I picked up the meals at curbside, I told the waitress how impressed I had been with the online ordering system and she thanked me and told me she would have to tell her husband. Turns out Krista and her husband, Sean, own and operate the restaurant. I had assumed with the level of sophistication that it must be a franchise or chain, but no, Oz. is a true mom and pop restaurant. When leaving I told Krista that the proof would be in (i) whether the delivered food matched the order and (ii) the quality of the food. I had barely started eating when my wife announced that her salad was spectacular and the burger one of the best she had ever had. My meal was every bit as impressive. Again, uncharacteristically for me, I called Krista (even though the restaurant was hopping and I knew she was busy), just to tell her that the food was as good or better than the service. This is as advertised: true farm-to-market fare, exceedingly fresh, expertly prepared as ordered and quickly delivered. Yes, Oz. may not have McDonald's prices, but it has infinitely superior food, expertly prepared and efficiently delivered. We admittedly didn't even try what was probably the standout feature of the restaurant: the beer. I assume if the restaurant part of the tap house was spectacular, the beer side of it must be even more so. Next time. Do yourself a favor and try the Oz. Tap House. My very best wishes to Krista and Sean on a very successful business in a tough industry.“

“Yes, everyone calm down.It's your famous reviewer, youtuber.But more than that , I just want to say that I cannot wait to stop by here at texas toast's breakfast and burgers when I come to Austin Texas visit. i never been more excited to stop at our location to do a review for because word of mouth is the breakfast is crazy good.“

“I love this place. We usually go several times during the month. We love our Cosmopolitan drinks always made with our favorite Grey Goose Vodka. The food is amazing. I’m not really into spicy but here I can handle it. Last but no least… the service! The customer service. Fast, kind, always with a smile open to help and give you advises. They are so skilled and knowledgable. Waiters knows al the plates, and tastes. Also huge shout out to my Venezuelan friend. He is a bus boy and he is always goes above and beyond. I’m Venezuelan and it’s really nice to see him. Every time he knows I’m there he comes to say hi, give us a recommendation too and more! He is just awesome! Thank y’all“

“Well if anyone needs an excuse to go try a smash burger from The Boss Cheesesteak, this is it lol. Probably one of the best burgers in general that I’ve had in a really long time. I got a triple but ate it before I could get a good pic. It was massive, hot, fresh, cheesy and so filling. 5 stars all around. Tried their #1 cheesesteak yesterday and it also did not disappoint. Am I about to become very fat? Possibly. Is it worth it? Absolutely. Good job boss crew“

“Kaitlynn waited on me this morning and was very polite and attentive. Thank you. I ordered the Farmhouse Skillet Hash and it was perfect. 👌🏾 Props to the Chef 🧑‍🍳“

“Took my mom there for her birthday today. She wanted to come hit some golf balls since that’s all I talk about now is golfing, and eating at the Bunker. Seared Tuna was perfect!!! Love this place! #LakeLife“

“This hotel has become my main hotel choice when in the Austin area; clean hotel, great location, and friendly staff. In fact, Neo’s cheerful personality will surely bring a smiley to your face!“

“Food was always delicious and made to order. Those working the truck were always super nice and you can tell they were working hard! Prices are very reasonable. Definitely give this place a shot! Pictured is the chipotle popper cheeseburger.“

“We use to come here on occasion but the last time, which was over a year ago, the food quality had dropped. Well my daughter stopped by and talked me and my wife to trying Cheddars again. The food was back to the great quality.
I had the full rack a ribs with fries and steamed broccoli. My wife had the bake white fish( lemon pepper), fries and broccoli and cheese. My daughter had the Fried Fish and chips. The server was awesome.
The only issue I had was with the mini Kiosk on the table. The waitress took our order but I paid thru the kiosk and the display was nasty. I suggest maybe cleaning it after every customer. Oh I had an extra wipe from my ribs so I went ahead and cleaned it.“

“This sopapilla pudding is outstanding! Run don’t walk to try this! 😍💕❤️ Along with the exceptional staff this is absolutely wonderful!“

“This place is amazing. Probably the best Christmas event around Austin! Even better than the trail of lights. A-MA-ZING“

“Great food, lovely atmosphere, great service.“

“We love Smokey Mo's BBQ. I stop by whenever we're craving good BBQ. The staff is always friendly & anxious to please! The smell drives me crazy on the way home. I have all I can do not to pull over & inhale it all by myself. Of course the family would be upset I'm sure!“

“Had such a great time at Dog Haus on Friday night for music bingo! Chris was so friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout the night. The atmosphere was fun, the music bingo was a blast, and the service was great. Definitely a fun spot to grab some food and drinks and hang out. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Absolutely excellent experience from start to finish! The restaurant was clean, welcoming, and had a great atmosphere. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect throughout the meal. The fresh bread with butter was a great way to start, the Caesar salad was crisp and delicious, and the steak was cooked exactly as ordered—tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The fries were hot and seasoned well, and the portions were generous. Every part of the meal exceeded my expectations. If you're looking for outstanding food, excellent service, and a relaxing place to enjoy a quality steak dinner, I highly recommend LongHorn Steakhouse. I'll definitely be coming back again!“

“Great food and customer service!“

“Nice spot to pop in while I was in town on Business. Friendly and refreshing atmosphere. I’ll be back to visit if I ever get back to Austin.“

“Burger I had for lunch yesterday was so yummy. Bacon was delicious, fries were done to perfection. Highly recommend.“

“Healthy eating isn't always the easiest thing to come by when dining out in Texas. Honest Mary is a fast-casual kitchen preparing vegetarian, gluten-free and healthy bowls at their two branches in Austin. We stopped by recently and did their Sedona Lime and Med Harissa Bowl, both were freshly prepared and tasted very good. You can also do custom bowls choosing your own proteins, rice/salad base and other food items/sauces. Prices are about right for the food quality and portion sizes served. Seating area is a regular, casual restaurant and bowls are prepared fairly quickly.“

“The bacon chicken ranch was 🔥 — juicy chicken, crispy bacon, and ranch done right. Don’t skip the garlic parm fries… perfectly seasoned and addicting. Great food all around!“

“I love this place! It’s clean, has friendly staff, and mouth watering brisket.“

“My wife and I had a wonderful lunch experience here on a relaxing Friday afternoon. The burgers were fantastic, the potato salad and tomato soup excellent, and the iced tea refreshing. They have really nice outside seating that is shaded, coupled with a very nice indoor space. If you are in River Place or nearby, this place is a great lunch option. Their prices cannot be beat, and the lady who took our order and made our food was very helpful and kind.“

“We came to Kerbey Lane to celebrate the start of my 4th year as a business owner! My family has been an integral part of my success of LearnLee Tutors! So we celebrate with warm, fluffy pancakes and coffee!“

“We had a wonderful breakfast at Snooze, an A.M. Eatery! The food was delicious and fresh, and everything we ordered was really good. Our server, Ash, was very nice, friendly, and attentive. She made our experience even better with her great service. We really enjoyed our visit and will definitely be back. Highly recommend!“

“We were at Captain Pete's a few weekends ago with friends. it has been a while, but we watched the incredible sunset and had the best waitress Angie! Although they were busy Angie was phenomenal!“

“I'm going to be honest I ain't getting paid, sponsored, or swayed by the pretty girls working here.

The live music is decent, the drinks do the job, and the food is good I think I mostly come back for it My biggest complaint is that the staff could check in on customers a little more often. A lot of the time it was faster for me to go up and get my own drink. Regulars typically get drinks first

That said, I've been here a few times and it's not a bad bar at all. If you're a regular, you'll probably get even better service. My advice is simple speak up if you need something and don't be afraid to be a little independent. You'll have a good time.“

“Super hole in the wall, good food, good atmosphere!! Loved it!!!! Kids played pool and drew with sidewalk chalk. Did I mention the food was GREAT! A big thanks to our awesome server!“

“Great bar staff always consistent but allow children to sit at bar at night even on Friday eves. If wanted to put up with children at night would have stayed home. Then 250lb obese young woman sits next to me and cannot shovel food in fast enough. Had to move. Hit or miss. But again good bar staff.“

“So good and so cute. Loved my lavender Latte“

“Wow…I heard the hype and I admit I was a little skeptical, but wow. The food was so delicious. We got the triple dipper (mozzarella sticks, chipotle chicken, and bites), the ribs (2 combo with chipotle chicken crispers, Mac and cheese and fries), and the Nashville crispers. Everything was so good and fresh! Our waitress Neveah was literally an angel. Just 5 stars all around.“

“Great place but watch out for the games that don’t work(they will give you a refund if you let them know) 😄“

“Great place to watch your favorite sports shows and games“

“First time here and love it!“

“Excellent [Original] Excellent“

“We had a bridal brunch at the 63 restaurant at the Lakeway Inn. The restaurant went way above our expectations. They set the table beautiful, set up all the extra tables that we needed for the event. It was actually spectacular. The food was delicious. They gave us breakfast and lunch selections. The different mimosas were a hit. The service was exceptional. It was really beautiful. I would highly recommend this restaurant and location.

“The wings at Pluckers Wing Bar were the reason we came, and they didn't disappoint. We ordered a few different sauces so everyone could try something different, and the wings stayed crispy even after being tossed in sauce. The waffle fries were also a great side-crispy on the outside with plenty of seasoning. With so many flavors to choose from, it's an easy place to pick when you're with a group that can't agree on one thing.“
