Garbo's

We were craving oysters for a long time and decided to have them at Garbo's which was relatively near from where we were at the moment. It is a nice place with plenty of tables to sit, either inside or outside. About the food, the lobster sandwich and the fried shirmps we ok. What took the show were the oysters which were REALLY GOOD! If you go there, the oysters are a must to have. In my opinion it is a little bit pricey but it is also a good option to try some seafood and more importantly, the OYSTERS!!

I love sitting out on the patio when it’s this nice out! I enjoyed an early dinner here and was pleasantly surprised by the $3 oyster special they had going on. My partner and I shared the following: Fish and chips: 5/5 Dare I say these are the best fish and chips I’ve had in austin? Honestly though, I love how the fish is lightly battered and so flaky! It’s also perfectly seasoned and a very generous portion. On Tuesdays, this plate goes for $14! Connecticut lobster roll: 5/5 Buttery goodness. I loved the toasted roll and the fresh lobster! This is pretty filling. We didn’t love the jalapeño Cole slaw unfortunately as it was a bit bland. Raw Oysters: 5/5 These oysters were huge and so so fresh! I also really appreciate how cleanly each oyster is prepared and you won’t get little shell bits in there. Frozen lemonade: 5/5 Super refreshing and the perfect sweetness!

Great food, wonderful relaxed atmosphere! Nice kids play area outside. It was a little limited for our almost 3 year old, but she still had a really good time and it let us relax a little. Portions were smaller than expected, but food quality was great. Portions were probably closer to what they SHOULD be compared to what we’re used to getting.

Best seafood restaurant in Austin with reasonable pricing for the high quality food they serve. The food here is AMAZING!!! I had the fish basket during their Tuesday special. So good!! The customer service is great and the atmosphere is so charming, relaxing and clean. I feel like I’m visiting my extended family on the East Coast and I love it! Also, the story behind this company is enlightening and encouraging. I love supporting our local businesses while seeing them thrive and give back to the community. You won’t regret coming to Garbo’s and will keep coming back for more!

Went to Garbos for the first time. I ordered a salad 🥗 which contained strawberries, apple shrimp kale, feta cheese, pecans. The salad was absolutely delicious and fresh. The interior of the restaurant is absolutely beautifully designed. The atmosphere is calming and a great place to eat. They have an outside patio where there is an area for kids to play connect 4. At the end of the meal you can order ice cream on a sheet of paper with a pencil. The ice cream was delicious as well
