Chicken for chicken & waffles was soooo good! Servers and hostess were attentive and kind. No complaints at all, aside from minor comment.. the BOURBON syrup is very bourbon-y in my opinion.
Stella San JacResponded 4 days ago
Thank you for the great review! We're so glad to hear you enjoyed the chicken & waffles and had a positive experience with our team. We appreciate your feedback on the bourbon syrup — we'll certainly take that into consideration. We look forward to welcoming you back soon for another delicious meal!

Homeless people doing drugs right outside the entrance. Didn’t really care as that seems to be the norm in austin. But the glasses they brought us for water were filthy, had lipstick still on them. I was surprised the waiter didn’t notice. I went to the lobby to buy water bottles instead. The food came and the dishes were not the cleanest. The scrambled eggs were undercooked and mushy, the food made us sick, should’ve known better and not eaten it, so that’s kind of on us at that point.

We were seated promptly. Our server, Oscar, was very knowledgeable and attentive. Noise level was such that we could have a conversation without speaking up or leaning in so we could hear each other. Biscuits are great!

Thank you for the wonderful review! We're so happy to hear that you had a great experience, from being seated promptly to enjoying Oscar's attentive service. We're also glad you loved the biscuits! We hope to welcome you back soon for another delicious meal and enjoyable experience.

Great food and service from Logan. First time at the restaurant. We had a booth which was very nice. Overall, wonderful experience. We had crab Benedict and steak and eggs at our table. Both were reported as new items. Loved both entrees!

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed both the Crab Cake Benedict and Steak and Eggs.

Steak was way too dry (medium should not be), bread at the burrata was soggy. Fish lacked flavor. Nothing bad but very unimpressed
