Amy KilleNovember 7, 2010Waited an hour for the best brunch buffet we've had in a long while! Texas casserole, chorizo tamale scramble, and bread pudding were my favorites. Service with a smile, too, and great OJ! Yum
Melanie WalkerNovember 2, 2013Great service. Great food I had the Bohimian sandwich. It was so amazing. The atmosphere was relaxed and very comfortable.
Lance RussellJune 23, 2013I'm sure its been said a thousand times but the green chile mac is amazing. Slightly spicy, loaded with chicken and wonderfulness.
The Austin Grand PrixDecember 30, 2011Sip on a refreshing cocktail while nibbling on fresh cornbread and enjoying the people watching. Then dive in to some of Austin's most authentic fare - chicken fried steak or mac 'n cheese.
Jennifer NguyenSeptember 12, 2010Go on Sundays between 10:30 and 2:30 for their buffet brunch. But be forewarned, the wait is CRAZY long no matter what time you go. Longer parties wait the longest. It's definitely worth it though. Be
Mukund RaoFebruary 2, 2016The acron squash with barley filling and tomato sauce makes a great brunch
- Jenny MackintoshMarch 14, 2013Split the sweet potato pecan pie. It's quite literally a whole pie. Ordering it with someone else ensures you won't try to eat the whole thing yourself.
- Sarah JutrasAugust 15, 2011Order the Rainbow Trout with Corn Bread Stuffing, the Moonshine "corn dog" shrimp, and the signature skillet apple pie for dessert. Then do it again the next night.
Lakshmi MuraliFebruary 17, 2015Huge lines but since it was just two of us we grabbed a table at the bar - brunch was excellent!
Atmosphere. Food. Drinks were all great would definitely go back !
Jaron BanksAugust 8, 2010You can sit at the bar and get full service. This is a way to avoid the wait for Sunday brunch. Show up at 2:15 right before buffet shuts down at 2:30. Tips for Sunday Funday people!!
Craig Collins-YoungMarch 4, 2015The corndog-style shrimp are a novel concept, but lack flavor. The batter could use a punch & the shrimp need a marinade. The trout is tasty but relies heavily on the bacon cornbread stuffing.
Rick MontgomeryAugust 1, 2014I recommend the bread pudding. It was very good. The Grits side dish is a winner as well.- CollegeFashionistaJanuary 14, 2014Moonshine is a popular upscale southern style cooking restaurant that offers a great ambiance and gourmet comfort food.
HISTORYApril 7, 2010Comfortable and familiar, relaxed and easygoing, Moonshine greets guests like family. Serving up great cooking with an innovative take on classic American comfort food.
MaxJune 12, 2016Incredible sheik and grits and catfish. The moonshine cocktails are novel and interesting.
Michael MuseMay 16, 2014Awesome big porch thats great for groups. Get a reservation, though the bar isnt a bad place to hang out.
Gina R.September 17, 2012The pecan crusted catfish with homemade hot sauce is excellent. Jalapeño cornbread also very good. Friendly, helpful staff.
You can close your eyes, put your finger on the menu, and get wherever your finger lands. Trust me, everything's good here. Oh, try the green chile macaroni.
Ike CoronisFebruary 27, 2014Great drinks, really good food. The green chili cheese grits were my favorite of everything we had.
Kevin V.March 19, 2015Get the PayPal app and use it th pay here. Usually there is a $5 credit you can apply to your bill!!!
Anna CurranMarch 13, 2013The apple pie is delicious and enormous. See how it Compares to pictured iPhone.
Earl Belcher JrJune 13, 2016Moonshine. All local Austin beers. Atmosphere and decor are inviting. Looking forward to dinner so more to come... :)
Walt FrancisMay 1, 2016There will be a wait... So order drinks and an app, sit on the outside patio and enjoy your wait
Aruna RJanuary 24, 2014Amazing food! Try the rainbow trout, mashed potatoes, asparagus and shrimp corn dogs!
Great food, be ready to wait for a while but it will be well worth your time.
Social News NetworkJune 20, 2012Dig your fork into as many plates as you can, this place is great! This is home to some of the best tasting staple foods: meatloaf, macaronni, corn dogs...
Anne 🎏 DSeptember 19, 2012Delicious! Indigo Spinach Salad paired with a Sav Blanc. Great mid week lunch!
Ann WindhamJuly 30, 2011My husband says "Best Chickem Fried Steak ever" I loved the Rainbow Trout! Plan on long wait and eayint "out" as in outside despite triple digits.
Dominique McCleaveApril 24, 2012Lavender hand soap, you can't go wrong with that. But for real the baked Brie and Spinach Salad are wonderful!
Vegans-ask for the veggie plate! Well seasoned and healthy!
Marcy Barlow-HooverJanuary 11, 2012the smoked half chicken in Dr. Pepper BBQ sauce is to die for! Try it with the baked mac and cheese - yummy!
SaundraJanuary 30, 2013Call ahead and lock a table on the patio. Order a hard lemonade and something with pork in it
Angel GaribayMarch 14, 2015You can order from the menu at the patio bar... Just in case the restaurant is pretty crowded.
I had the jalapeno hanger steak with Mac and cheese... Steak was good, but the Mac and cheese was obviously premade and plated. It was a dry and reheated disappointment.
Mollie Q. ColemanMay 9, 2013This is a must try when in Austin. Definitely a great experience with great food!
ChrisMarch 20, 2015Green chile Macaroni is a bit overated. Not as unhealthy as I expected, though not as tasty either.
- Y BJanuary 27, 2012Best all-you-can-eat brunch in Austin. Bring an appetite and try to snag a table in the carriage house!
Gerald VanderpuyeAugust 30, 2014Had the trout..the patio area has a very Spanish roof feel. Around great place to eat.
Alex OxenhamNovember 26, 2014The barbecue chicken is as good as the reviewers say it is. A must order.
