    Fantastic seafood! Fantastic service! Lovely dining room. We had a wonderful evening. The only complaint was that we were seated right next to the kitchen, so lots of servers streaming by, carts, and noise from the kitchen. Next time I will call and ask to be seated away from the kitchen. But everything else was top notch.

    Yes, $56 for a small glass of wine. Do the math. That lacks value, but better I chose that than the $80 per glass of wine also offered. They need to give this some thought. Otherwise great restaurant.

    A real enjoyable meal. Flew into Austin to spend time with our daughter and wanted to have a first class dinner out. Was not disappointed in the least as every aspect of our dinner was top notch. Our waiter was very professional and friendly (Sam) and had a great personality. The filet mignon ordered medium were cooked medium and were extremely tasty. I had the bourbon pork chop which was cooked perfectly medium. The sides of corn and bacon as well as the mashed potatoes were delicious. To wash all this food down, we drank a Pinot Noir from Oregon which was priced fairly . For dessert, two orders of home made berry sorbet . The three of us were stuffed but not overly. When the check came I did not suffer sticker shock, all facets of the dinner was priced right.
