Walked in with a seafood craving not knowing what to expect. The exterior is unassuming and inside is connected to Lavaca bar. The food really blew our minds! We got the blackened redfish and snapper plates. The fish, coleslaw, and fries were all superb. Loved the freshness, balance and simplicity. Appreciated that it wasn't too heavy, and portion size was generous.

I have never had a blackened shrimp po boy as good as the one I got here! It makes my mouth water just thinking about it now. The service was quick and the food was very fresh and delicious! The people were also very friendly and the atmosphere was very "Austin". There is some outdoor seating as well as a walk-up to-go window on the outside!
Definitely the best hush pups in town! I had the tilapia tacos and they were delicious. I probably didn’t need two since one is pretty filling but I still ate it and enjoyed every bite 🤤. The lady who took our orders was super friendly and cheerful!
Dear lord, there is no reason the blackened rib eye tacos should be this good. It's been a couple of hours and I'm considering eating there again for dinner. If you're going to get a side of fries, you should probably have someone to share them with. You get so many. It's attached to a bar so you can eat indoors if the weather isn't in your favor. The staff is really friendly and also let's you know about some of the things they only have on weekends. Would definitely return when I'm in the area.
Edit: I went back again before heading home. I Gotta say do NOT get the oysters. They are bad. Some weird after taste that I didn't enjoy at all, and even then, there wasn't any seasoning so that you could taste something else. Stick with the ribeye tacos.
Walk up to the window inside the bar and get ready to get your mind blown! The calamari was perfectly golden and served with a sweet and spicy sauce that I'm still thinking about. Went for the nachos and paid $9 more for blackened craw fish, a worthy splurge. The bar you dine in had a killer happy hour, too. Definitely worth a trip downtown!
Great costumer survice and they welcome you with a big smile, the food is good and big portions you will get full with the tacos, my favorite spot since I moved to Austin
Delicious Kiss Yo Mama Tacos! These are bacon wrapped shrimp based tacos and they are delicious. The red beans and rice side is ok. I recommend adding some hot sauce after you taste them. The jalapeno hush puppies are ok.
The food was tasty, and the portion size was generous. The ambiance of the place was excellent
We decided to go here because it was one of the few food places that was open after a Tuesday night ACL event . Just as other reviews mentions, this place is expensive . Two fried shrimp Po-boys and a side of Cajun curly French fries was about 60 dollars, with tip . Po boy was about an 8/10. Fresh vegetables, good bread. Shrimp could have been a little more meaty and maybe better with a different breading , but very decent . French fries came out hot and fresh. 8/10 also.
I was mostly impressed with the service . One gentlemen was so good at anticipating our needs , keeping us informed, and just doing his job well. Always going above and beyond .
I recommend if you are close by.
Took the Salmon Po Boy and Sweet Potato Fries. You can order from inside Lavaca bar and sit at one of the tables and they will bring the food straight to you. Big portions and tasty.
