    An exceptional time at Elizabeth Street! Joy, our server, was incredibly welcoming and very approachable. Offered her input and was the perfect level of attentive -- not checking in too much but organically reading the room to know when we might be ready for a second round or to put in our entrees. The patio was great and offered some phenomenal people watching. Standouts were the steak fried rice, chili oil dumplings, and you MUST get the beignets.

    We had dinner at Elizabeth St Cafe in February as a group of fitness with a dog, and sat outside with heaters. The food was tasty, with an average amount of choice for our vegetarian friend too. Service was good, the place was full, so quite lively but sitting outside meant that it wasn’t noisy and we were able to have easy conversation.

    I absolutely love this restaurant, every bit of food is always amazing and they have definitely put Vietnamese food on the map in Austin and in general in my personal opinion, as a life or a New Yorker, who has had a lot of really great food that Vietnamese food might be the best I’ve ever had!!

    We dined here on Valentine’s Day so it was packed inside the restaurant, but we sat outside and had a nice and quiet meal. The food here is always outstanding and it is such a beautiful restaurant. It also has great value for the prices, we got so much food and didn’t feel like we were overpaying. Absolutely recommend Elizabeth St. for any occasion!
