    I had bar seating for Thanksgiving lunch. My server/bartender, Victoria, was attentive, charming and most helpful. My tomahawk chicken fried pork chop arrived much faster than expected, was delicious, and half of it went home with me. This was my first experience dining at Carve, and I shall be back. Thanks to Victoria, the kitchen, and staff for a memorable meal!!

    My friend and I both ate off the vegetarian menu and it was amazing. Our waiter was knowledgeable and the tequila and cocktail menu was lengthy. Worth noting that almost all seating is outside, which is great right now in the fall, but could be rough in the 8 months of summer that Austin gets!

    I would like to start by saying that the food was AMAZING. drinks were awesome and we got a variety. Everything was great but felt like the server was rushing us to leave. We went early on a Friday and no one was in the restaurant but felt like we were being pushed out. Checks were picked up while we were still there and not busy at all which seems odd to me.
