“Amazing. Must-go location in Austin! They serve up wonderful array of drinks, especially their icy coffee - Irish and otherwise. The Dead Rabbit also does coffee in the morning starting at 7am - their tiramisu coffee is a must have. Great food- their sliders are delicious. Wonderful service in a restaurant and bar with great ambiance. The team at the Dead Rabbit is so kind, considerate and friendly. Reasonable prices for an exceptional experience.“

Prices were very cheap here for the area. Had the buffalo wings and they were great. Can't recommend this place enough.“

“Fantastic spot for breakfast or brunch“

“First timer here! Everything was fabulous! From the staff to the atmosphere everything was so good. It’s on the pricey side, but we had a great time and I’d come back!“

“This establishment is a must visit. The food and atmosphere is wonderful. The food is great and the service is top notch. Review by Gabriel A Culiat“

“This place is a whole vibe!“

“We loved the quaint atmosphere and the specialty cocktails. The bar crafters were amazing!!! Check it out!“

“The food here is wonderful, and I highly recommend the mushrooms. They’re perfectly crispy like chips but with that umami mushroom flavor and spot-on seasoning. I could eat them forever. The squash risotto was also cooked beautifully, with the squash itself seasoned just right and a slight char that made it even better.

The staff here are so nice and helpful, recommending things with so much enthusiasm that you can’t help but feel happy to be there too. At night, the outdoor area feels like a little garden with pretty lights and a cozy vibe. Just don’t make the same mistake I did and wander into the building on the right as that’s a completely different restaurant. Toti is just very small and easy to miss.“

“Lovely setting. Fun atmosphere and chilled“

“An experience…..a must go to in Austin.“

“I’ve been here almost every day for a week now cuz right when I walked in it felt magical“

“Great atmosphere and fantastic staff! I connected with them before visiting from Newfoundland and again the day we arrived. They were kind, helpful, and accommodating. Carly Rogers was on stage and she was phenomenal! She has four new fans in our family :) I wish we had more time in Austin as we'd head back there for sure!“

“We stopped into Marlow on a whim while we were waiting on an event to start. Our bartender was friendly and let us know they have 1/2 off wine bottle Tues-Thurs. and was speedy with our drinks. The space is nice and the AC was cranked up! Thank you! Waller creek is such a cool feature DT and their patio overlooks the elephant ears and River Walk-esque views. I'd like to go back here intentionally and spend some more time during their happy hour!“

“We celebrated our friend’s Bachelorette party at the Electric Shuffle and had an absolute blast. The food was delicious. The staff were fabulous and lively. And I loved that the shuffle board was electronic - making it easy to keep score, pick different games and provide instruction. Highly recommend!“

“This has quickly become our favorite cocktail bar in Austin! The atmosphere is absolutely amazing—relaxed, cozy, and full of charm. The drink menu is thoughtfully curated (not overwhelming at all), and every cocktail we tried was spot-on. It’s the perfect spot for a date night or simply to unwind and enjoy a comfortable, inviting space.“

“My husband and I are regulars at Holiday. They boast the perfect combination of atmosphere, food, and drinks. There’s no pretense behind anything they do, it’s just good shit. I recommend this place to anyone who’s looking for a good cocktail and a good time. They never fail us 🍸🍝 p.s. of course try their famous martinis, but my go-to is a gin gimlet 🙂‍↔️“

“I've been here a few times and it's always a great experience. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable, the service is prompt and the food has been perfect every time. Shout out to our last server Chance for providing another pleasant and memorable evening for my partner and I at Five Four.“

“Very nice mediterranean options, would recommend.“

“Really cool, very Austin experience. There are only 15 seats so get there early or be patient, but the drinks ARE worth it!“

“I loved visiting Sunny’s backyard!
Great beer, amazing prices, delicious tacos by Praprika served in the back patio, a special event going on (I had no idea about but still enjoyed)
Would 1000% recommend, can’t wait to be back! 🫶🏽“

“Cosmic Saltillo is hands-down my favorite morning spot in Austin. I’m here almost every day, and it never disappoints. The coffee is consistently excellent, the staff is friendly and efficient, and the space itself is just beautiful.

Plenty of seating indoors and outdoors, lush greenery, and a great energy that makes it perfect for working, meetings, or just starting the day right. It’s become part of my daily routine for a reason. A true Austin gem.

Oh, and I plan and host a lot of events there too.

Ps. and yes, their tacos are AWESOME.“

“I’ve been into mama dearest countless times and have always been treated so well by Blair and Allen that I felt it was only prudent to let the people of Austin know. Walking into this bar will only lead to amazing drinks, service and a place to meet great people.“

“Talk about a great place to chill. Delicious patty melt and the fires. Large cut potato wedges with a great seasoning on top.
Atmosphere speaks to days of past with a chill atmosphere meant to invite cold beer, Delicious and cheap food and great company.“

“Seven grand Austin never fails to amaze. The staff is always friendly, knowledgeable, and willing to help guide with drinks. I will keep coming to this establishment for years to come“

“Very Delicious and Great Location“

“Incredible Deftones Album Release Party for “Private Music”! Great sound system, great bar food (kitchen in-house) incredible bartenders (Molly😊) and did I mention that there’s a sweet-ass record shop here too(?)! If you haven’t been here, you don’t know what you’re missing! Visit their website for the latest release parties, live music, recording sessions, etc., etc. This is Austin at its finest!“

“Delicious BBQ! Great ambiance and service!“

“Visited a friend in Austin and he introduced me to the Buzz Mill.“

“I've been here twice now, and loved the food and service both times! Additionally, the service was even more excellent on my second visit to the restaurant--when making my reservation, I noted that we were there to celebrate my friend's birthday. Not only did they bring her a free glass of wine, but they also brought out some delicious watermelon ice cream with a candle for us to share at the end of our meal. From the hostess stand to our servers, everyone was extremely friendly and I was so pleased that they made my friend feel so special. I will absolutely be back again!“

“Well I would say yes & no! Nice place but the way the tables are set up is horrible. There isn’t a stage so if you are sitting at the small tables you can’t see the band that is performing because the higher table are in front. I think that the higher tables should go against the wall where the picnic table is or towards the back and the smaller tables should be up front. There are some people who are unable to sit and the higher tables but are unable to see the band other then that’s it’s a pretty nice place.“

“Amazing food. I had an absolute food coma experience. They are top notch and incredibly affordable food and great atmosphere. Highly recommend.“

“Lil Easy is a hidden gem! If you're anywhere near the airport, this spot is a must-stop. The food is phenomenal—authentic Cajun flavors that hit all the right notes. From the perfectly seasoned gumbo to the crispy po’boys, everything we tried was top-notch. The atmosphere is laid-back and welcoming, with a vibe that makes you feel right at home. Whether you're just landing, about to take off, or just craving some seriously good eats, Lil Easy is the place to be!“

“I am a little biased because I have been the amazing, fabulous karaoke host here for the last 10 years. Please come visit us, and enjoy the atmosphere, food, drinks, and the service! I will be there to entertain you on Wednesday and Sunday evenings! COME SING WITH US! #OnPlanetFabulous xo Murrah 😘“

“From the time we walked in, we were made to feel at home. Funny that we had Jack for a server. I remembered him from a couple years ago at your location in Round Rock. The man has not missed a step. Patient, kind, attentive without being a helicopter. Can't say enough good things about him.....and everyone else in our party of six has said the same things I just told you. Quite impressive! Jack should be proud of all of you. (yes, I'm talking about Jack Gilmore) I've been a huge fan since we were introduced at the Kitchen on 71 probably 12 or 14 years ago. Keep doing what y'all do! All of your restaurants spell one thing: Consistent Quality! And you can quote me on that! Rick Goncher, EA MSCTA Ax-S-Tax, Georgetown, Tx.“

“Supercool spot 🖤🤘😎🎶🤪👏 July 23rd, Saturday night with friends and bands: Stuck on 45, Morocco, Cruel Summer TX. KilLRrr night…“

“Went out to bufalina after wanting to for SO long and although there was a 45 min wait for a table of 3, we grabbed some wine and the time flew by. We got the caesar with the boquerones with the fresca and red pies. Everything tasted fresh, complex, and amazing! Their wine list is also excellent so we will be back soon“

“This is a small, cosy restaurant with a fusion of Mediterranean and Indian flavours using local, seasonal ingredients from Texas. The restaurant offers a four-course prix fixe menu with sophisticated and creative food (Time Out Worldwide) (The Texas Tasty).“

“Great down home Austin beer and cocktails spot. This place is huge and you can always find your own corner. Plenty of TV’s with all the premium sports channels. Dozens of Great selection of beers. This place reminds me of Austin back in the 80’s days. I travel from Round Rock to go there and it’s always worth the drive. 👍🏼👍🏼“

“Love this place and the service is spot on! Great bartenders !“

“This place is an absolute blast—especially thanks to the bartenders who keep the drinks flowing and the energy high! But the real stars of the show are the dueling piano players. These musicians don’t just play—they perform. They battle it out on the keys with outrageous talent, hilarious banter, and nonstop audience interaction. From classic sing-alongs to wild mashups, they take requests, roast the crowd, and keep everyone on their feet. The vibe was electric all night! I went on a Thursday and it was packed—people were dancing, singing at the top of their lungs, and totally into it. If you're anywhere near the area, you have to check this place out. It’s not just a bar, it’s an experience.“
