“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.

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.“

“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.“

“This is a great place to get great service and delicious food. Review by Gabriel Culiat“

“Excellent burger and fries. The burger was sooooo juicy and bun was perfect. The battered fries were to die for. It was a hot day but most tables were in shade and there were fans around so the heat wasn’t really a big deal. Really a perfect way to spend a quiet afternoon by walking along the river and coming to get a tasty meal!“

“The salads are delicious and filling.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Beautiful ambience and fresh delicious food!“

“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“

“Tomato grilled peach with shishioto chevre and candied pecans. shitake dumpling with soft scrambled eggs. There wasn't a single bad bite and the wine pairings were spot on. Huge thanks to Barkley Swine for an unforgettable evening.“

“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!“

“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.“

“Everything was great, food was great, service great, atmosphere was good. Although, i tried to order 2 individual hush puppies on their happy hour menu (they come as 7 and like lets be honest who's really eating 7 entire hush puppies) and our server said we could not because they come in a batch.......not sure how they could come in a batch...We passed and got the shrimp, which was amazing, but...they come in an order of 6, and they only gave us 5...maybe im dramatic but i feel like hush puppies and fried shrimp are cooked to order and they really could've given us 2 if they only gave us 5 shrimp. Will be coming back and trying again another day. Great food nonetheless“

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

“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.“

“Great experience all the way around at Nido! Food was fantastic and Trenton, our server, was an amazing host! He helped us all make decisions on food, drinks, and the coursing of it. He was spot on every time! Thank you, Trenton! Plus, the view of the city skyline from the patio was next level.“

“❤️❤️❤️ everything about Flower Child! Such a cute restaurant. Love the decor, the healthy food, the Southlake location is fabulous! I give it a 10/10!“

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

“K.R. took such good care of us, really refreshing to have such a nice server/good service these days. Went above and beyond, definitely created a couple new regulars. Atmosphere and food was so nice, we were walking by and had no idea the restaurant was tucked back in there!“

“Amazing food and service! My new favorite burger place. Everything is delicious and fresh. Had the double classic that was a perfect amount of crispy edges and flavor. Don’t miss the vanilla shake— 10/10!“

“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!“

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

“I went for the $25 sunday steak special and was not disappointed. The steak was rather large and cooked well. I also ordered a salad and a crème brûlée, which were also delicious. Atmosphere of the restaurant is very cool and all of the staff look very hipster. Great ambience and a great menu.“

“First timers here and we love the atmosphere!“

“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“

“We love the League Avs especially Lonnie!!“
