The food and drinks were excellent! Elias, the manager, even came by and made sure my party was doing well which was super nice! The ambience is great and the greenery makes everything feel so peaceful. I will definitely be returning!

The patio area is absolutely beautiful and so comfortable. Our waitress was friendly and amazing going over the menu with us. When we were undecided on drinks, she brought us two samples to decide. The sushi tacos and ceviche were some of the best I’ve had. Overall a great place with great service and food/drinks.

What a great atmosphere for cocktails and socializing. The drinks themselves were wonderful; reasonably priced for what you get and nicely presented with accoutrements. The staff was also very friendly. If you go to a place like this in Austin you’d get a lot of pretentiousness from staff. If you’ve been, you know what I’m talking about. The food menu was a little limited and portions left a lot to be desired considering the cost (imagine six Ritz crackers with a spoonful of crab salad on each and paying $20). Regardless, we would definitely go back, more for drinks than dinning.

Food was super good, good service and comfortable outdoor shaded seating. It’s a hotel, so the prices are high relative to quantity of food served. Micro portions. Good for snacking while having a cocktail.
