Central Texas Restaurants

All was great. Our reservation was at 5:30 but we arrived just before 5. Had to wait a few minutes since, unbeknown to us…… they don’t open until 5 on Sat. Oysters were great.

I moved here from Southern California where good restaurants are plentiful and I can be a bit finicky. My friends in the Round Rock area have highly recommended whiskey cake, but for some reason I could never make it to the restaurant. Unfortunately due to a death in the family, I thought it best to take my parents out for a late lunch to lift their spirits, and this restaurant did not disappoint! Everything was stellar from the excellent service by Manny to the unbelievably delicious signature dessert!

Our experience was very positive. The waiter was friendly and engaging. The food was reasonably priced, and we were allowed to substitute sides. It was quiet enough for us to converse with ease. The food itself was great. My chicken breast was moist and tender, and the Brussels sprouts were to DIE for! One of my personal measures of a restaurant is the quality of the coffee. The coffee was VERY good. My only negative comment is that the air conditioning was a little excessive and blew directly down onto my meal, causing it to get cold. I rarely comment about this because I am very warm-natured, but I do mind if it affects my meal. Patrons around us were wearing their coats and had similar complaints. The waiter said that the restaurant’s administration set the controls and the restaurant itself could not adjust it. I just kept the little menu and put it over the top of my coffee cup to keep it out of the wind. That was a minor inconvenience in comparison to the remainder of our experience however. I do recommend this restaurant.

Don’t bother making a reservation. We showed up 15 min before our time, and were told 10-20 min, but we’re seated until 20 min after our reservation time. This impacted the timeline of the rest of our evening.
