    Sit outside; fantastic music, great food, & nice drinks! Tip: Sit on one of the lawn tables & have the kids run & play in their enclosed green lawn while they wait for food.

    There's plenty of room to cozy up inside the bar with a juicy burger, chorizo empanadas or some calf fries and a local draft or cocktail made with Texas-born spirits--Uptowners are doing it in droves.

    Cute place to get the Texas feeling. Although I went there as part of a tour I enjoyed the environment and can I say if you love peanut butter you better get their peanut butter pie! It's so good

    One of my favorite places to go with friends for brunch (dinner, too) It’s family-style with great brunch treats (donuts, frittata, hot chicken, etc.) Also large outdoor/lawn space with live concerts.

    Aside from offering an excellent menu -- the Drunk Chick is an item that you should not miss -- this location boasts a ton of patio / lawn space to enjoy with friends, and a great concert calendar.

    The Rustic serves salt & pepper deviled eggs for only $5.95. A solid deviled egg win without using salmon, caviar, and yada. Just plain deviled eggs like everyone’s grandmother makes— simple. Read more

    I frequent this place at least once in two weeks. The brunch menu is one of the best in town. If you plan to visit in the eve, try veggie burger. It's better than many!

    Strawberry daiquiri is on point. Romaine salad is amazing, they throw the romaine on the grill for a unique wood-fired taste 👍🏼

    Brunch is great, portions are large for one, but when ordering with multiple people they scale down to reasonable levels.

    Good atmosphere for a Texas beer, sound for the concerts is not great outside. When the big canopy is up, everything seems to echo

    Always order directly at the bar as waiters out in the garden tend to take a while

    Free pie for first-timers & birthdays! I thought I wasn't a pie fan until I tried this beast of a peanut butter slice.

    First time visit. So far not impressed. Very rude hostess. Sat outside on a beautiful day. Waited quite a while. Finally flagged down server. And they're installing fans, loud drilling. Expected more.
