Ordered caviar, the presentation was wonderful. The potatoes in the clam chowder were not cooked all the way through. The cheeseburger was one of the best in town. Clark’s was noisy tonight. Service was great.

Really great spot for Social Hour! Made a reservation for the patio and very impressed when they called to let me know we needed to move inside due to rain - and then asked if we had any dietary restrictions or if we were celebrating a special occasion. Our server (John, I think?) kept giving us recommendations because it was our first visit, and everything he suggested was great - from the Margarita De Peached to the Charred Brussels to the special chicken mole taco! The Social Hour prices and the Taco Tuesday specials were very much appreciated. And it may seem like a small thing, but when someone other than our server ran food out to us, she knew who had ordered what. There was no "Who ordered the brisket taco?" I appreciate those little touches. Everything we ordered came out lightning fast! We will definitely be back and are looking forward to the Cedar Park location opening!

Brunch was really nice !! Thanks for the recommendations Jonathan everything was great. We had the deviled eggs , hash and poppyseed french toast it was more like cake but still very tasteful. Waiter was great with timing and tending to all our needs. We will definitely be back to try their dinner.

Delicious fried chicken, but the biscuits were the best I’ve ever had! So light and delicious. The only downside on the food was the baked beans, they had a weird texture because they were really baked peas. Skip those and save room for all the other delicious items on the menu. Shrimp and grits appetizer was great. The lobster pot pie was incredible as well. Will definitely go back for the biscuits alone!

Hands down my favorite restaurant in Austin. The food is delectable across the board (from appetizers through desserts through cocktails), ingredients are locally sourced, the menu rotates (new surprises every time!) and the pay their staff living wages.
