Visiting from Missouri, we wanted something different. We chose to come here and we are so glad we did. Sam our server was AMAZING, the food, the food was superb, I've never tasted pancakes like how they do theirs, their eggs were sweet but hardy at the same time. I will most definitely be back when back in Austin.

The happy hour marg was just mix honestly no taste of any alcohol, the app we got was delicious (hummus and the tacos are very bland, and we were told homemade tortillas and they definitely didn't taste or look it. Overall won't go back.

We had a perfect late brunch here as a group of five. We walked in without a reservation and had only a short wait, perfect for shopping along South Congress. The food was fresh and delicious and the drinks were strong!

This place is always busy, so I was really excited to try it out. But the whole experience ended up being disappointing. We sat indoors, and it was so loud that we struggled to have a normal conversation. The acoustics inside are terrible, and I feel bad that the employees have to be in that environment all day. I ordered the chicken fried steak, and it was so bad I didn’t even finish it—which has never happened before. The breading would was mushy and did not have the right chicken fried texture.

Been here many times and always good food and service. Made reservations a month ago and they sat us against the front door with people hovering over our table to wait in line for the hostess. I love Joann's but will only go back if I want to sit at the bar. We ended up giving up our table and went to another restaurant where we didn't feel like we were eating at Costco's at the checkout line.

The smell of garbage doesn't work in an outdoor patio. Let's get to the food, I ordered chicken fried steak. The entire plate was grease. The hash browns, the worst I've had as they were pure grease. Denny's has better hash browns. The green beans have bacon.. great - nope... grease! The meal sucked. The server took our order, and didn't come back to our table for 45 minutes!!! Not even after we received our meal. When she finally made her way over to our table I had barely touched my dinner. She didn't notice, and when I told her the meal was awful and it was overly greasy...she didn't care. At least fake it... nope... she couldn't be bothered. On one positive note, the margaritas were yummy, I would have loved another one. In fact, our entire table would have loved another margarita, but our server didn't come back for 45 minutes!! So not worth the money here.
