Dave CollinsFebruary 11, 2013Good food. On the pricey side. Old tavern but fancy too. A lot of unique and eclectic choices, even on old standards.
Christine HaMarch 16, 2016Solid southern brunch but you won't be able to move afterwards. Expect a wait. 🍳
Alex BergevinJuly 3, 2014I heard Austin was known for good food and good drink. First day here and I am not disappointed.

SaundraJanuary 30, 2013Call ahead and lock a table on the patio. Order a hard lemonade and something with pork in it
John Bob PashoJune 24, 2013The Texas Flat Iron Steak was so good her eyes literally rolled back into her head.
Gerald VanderpuyeAugust 30, 2014Had the trout..the patio area has a very Spanish roof feel. Around great place to eat.
- Y BJanuary 27, 2012Best all-you-can-eat brunch in Austin. Bring an appetite and try to snag a table in the carriage house!
Turns out this is my favorite place to eat during SXSW. It's a nice refuge from the chaos. Get the Fajita Steak salad, only in Texas can this called a salad.
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!
Ashley RudolphMarch 14, 2015Did lunch here and I can't stop thinking about the jalapeño cheese grits 😍😍
- Charles HodgeMay 30, 2013Try the Horseradish Crusted Salmon - Excellent salmon and the veggies were fresh and tasty
- 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.
Angel GaribayMarch 14, 2015You can order from the menu at the patio bar... Just in case the restaurant is pretty crowded.
Adobe SXSWMarch 8, 2010Lunch Time? Moonshine will set you right for the rest of the day. An Austin Chronicle favorite for best buffet, brunch and American food. Arrive early to beat the rush! Read more
ArielJune 13, 2014Don't let them sit you outside when it's 90+ unless you want to sweat through your meal. Management needs to relax sitting arrangement - they only sit complete parties? NY restaurant wannabe.
Stephanie WildJuly 14, 2013BLT with the fried egg and a side of Mac n cheese...amazing comfort food!
ChrisMarch 20, 2015Green chile Macaroni is a bit overated. Not as unhealthy as I expected, though not as tasty either.
Alex OxenhamNovember 26, 2014The barbecue chicken is as good as the reviewers say it is. A must order.
Marta PallaresMarch 22, 2015I can only say, although it's not really my specialty: BEST. STEAK. EVER. #everythingsbiggerintexas
Happy hour Monday through Friday with half price appetizers and discounted drinks. My Favorites, corn dog shrimp, hard lemonade, and ruby slipper... Yumm!

"Brilliant, pitch-perfect farm to table in Austin. Go for the duck fat fries and crisp chicken thughs. Chocolate truffle dessert is decadent."
Matthew Spector - 8.1
"Wide range of cocktails with plenty of beers on tap. Really enjoyed the Korean BBQ Steak, Asparagus & Squid Fries. Be sure to get two desserts as they are delicious and on the smaller side."
Adrian Phillips - 7.1
