   Very disappointed today! Food is not as good as it used to be. They changed the hummus appetizer completely. It’s not as good as it used to be. It used to be a smooth original hummus with marinated olives, feta, onion mixture, and olive oil drizzle on top. Served with a fluffy pita. Now it is a gritty pesto spicy hummus with a dollop of pesto, another dollop of some spicy sauce, and a ton of cilantro on top. They only gave us a few pieces of some whole grain pita that was kinda crispy. I didn’t care for it. So disappointing. The pizza was okay but, should have been cooked longer. The burger wasn’t as good as it used to be. Tasted like they changed the bun to a pretzel bun that I really didn’t like as much. I asked for it to be cooked medium rare and it was well done. The flavor wasn’t what it used to be. The sweet potato hash would have been better if they cut them into equal sized pieces. Most were cut tiny and ended up hard with just a couple that were bigger and softer. Not good. The flourless chocolate cake was good but, more like a pudding. It had a sauce on top that didn’t seem like much of a chocolate sauce. It tasted completely different than I remember it being in the past. It had a bit of a coffee flavor that I don’t remember it having the last time. Not as good as it used to be. The two servers that we had been assigned forgot about us completely and I had to go to the bar to get them to close out my bill. I never once was asked if we needed a refill on drinks and when I got up to go to the bar after waiting about 30 minutes for our waitress or waiter to come back I noticed they were sitting down eating. Service is not good. I usually get bad service. Today was not acceptable. The prices have gone up and really not worth it. Don’t waste your time with this place.

   It was a birthday dinner for a friend and I brought table scaping. Staff helped me to set it up. Service was quick and efficient. Food came out fast, hot and yummy. I had a burger that was the best I'd had in years. Peach lemonade was delish.

   Please focus on the MEN'S bathroom. Your restaurant is amazing except the bathroom cleanness.

   We dined on a Saturday evening. We were sat in a booth with the leather peeling off the seat, which was also covered in duck tape that was peeling, and about a foot of it just loose and dangling off the chair. The floors were dirty, the music was too loud - felt like we were in a club. The food had mixed reviews from my family.

   Good food, nice restaurant, but overpriced. Pretty expensive and there are many restaurants in Austin that provide a better value.

   The food was very bland. Definitely not worth the $. Service was slow and the booth was held together with tape.

   The food was good and fresh-tasting, but not great. The salmon was a little salty and the thai basil vinaigrette a little overpowering in the rest of the dish. The lasagna was good and very filing. The teriyaki bowls were very tasty. The food took a long time to come, but service was otherwise very good. It was a good dining experience overall.

    Food is meh. Not good value for money. Burger was overcooked and $6 for a tiny amount of mashed potatoes? Wine was again meh. $8 for Voodo IPA poured from a can in front of you. Skip.
