“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.

“A very fun place with exceptionally good food! The owner and staff are very friendly and helpful. I will definitely be going back..“

“I had the pork belly tacos, they were incredible. Finely chopped into small cubes, some had a meaty rich texture and some were perfectly crunchy. The bacon jam added a smoky BBQ flavor and a moistness bringing it all together.

Wife had the green chili Mac and Cheese with added crispy chicken. It was creamy and flavorful. Without the chicken it might have been disappointing due to the seemingly low amount of sausage, but with it the protein and crispy bits were perfectly balanced.

Kid had chicken tenders and to our surprise, they were hand breaded. A bit steep at $10, but made up for in quality.

The service was great once we got in, may drink refills, food in quick time, nice server. However, it seems they pull the host to help tidy up the front of the house and we stood for several minutes waiting for anyone to come to the host stand. Not a deal breaker, but you might be awkwardly standing for a few minutes.“

“3 year playing in the Bear Trap. Staff was excellent, the members were welcoming!“

“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“

“We have eaten at this restaurant numerous times and it is the go to place when we have company at our Lakehouse and for special occasions. It is always great. Every dish we have tried (and we have tried most of them) is spectacular. I laughed at Keith W’s review where he complains about the ambiance and atmosphere without giving any specifics. The ambiance and atmosphere of this restaurant needs no improvements. Each dining room is exquisite with beautiful outdoor views from floor to ceiling glass walls. Dzintra, do nothing different. You rock! If you feel the need to do anything, maybe lower the prices a bit instead of wasting any money on ambience/atmosphere!“

“Awesome pizza. Awesome meatballs. Love this place. (Would love it even more if you opened one in Belterra Village on 290.)“

“Went to Angel's bc of local recommendations. So glad we did. Was busy but got sat inside right away. We had the Chili Willie, Wings and ribeye salad. AMAZING. Best ranch water I've had as well. Jay was THE BEST server.“

“We came in from a horrible traffic jam on my birthday week and they welcomed us with warm gesture and really took care of us! The next day they sent us an amazing birthday gifts!! I am definitely coming back this year with additional family members !! Room, food, pools, spa and hospitality deserves 5 star!! Again thank you to the front desk staffs, their manager, the hotel staffs, spa, and onsite restaurants! Happy new year ! K-j/G-J“

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

“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!!“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“Best classic tex-mex around!“

“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!“

“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!“

“Good food, good bartenders, good staff. Definitely worth a drink or two!“

“Food was excellent, great portion, service great… Gold Star to Crystal for her smile and attention and good attitude!!!!“

“best wings best flavors great atmosphere“

“Food is always amazing, staff is beyond friendly! My waiter even offered to put my spicy seasoning on the side because my spice tolerance is low 😂
My one and only complaint is that the place could really use a deep clean.. The tables are sometimes sticky and you can see smudges of people's hands on some of the walls and booth boards.“

“Tried loaded nachos, good start. Chicken fajitas were not tasty, skip that. Mango margarita and limeade mocktail were nice. Chocolate Tres leches cheesecake was really good however I dont know why they named it Tres leches? but since this was yummy so didn’t mind. Service was fast. Seating was too hot, no fan reached us. But the view made up for it, truly great.“
