I had the best brisket I've ever had yesterday and it has ruined all other food for me. That brisket will be the bar that all other meals are judged by, but I'm confident that I'll never have anything as juicy, moist, melt-in-your-mouth, delicious, and succulent as that damned brisket! Damn you, EastSide Tavern, why are you not in Houston?!! I will just have to make the trek to Austin more regularly to enjoy your amazing brisket!
The outdoor roof patio was a great setting for my first time there. I am in town from Michigan and our server was such a nice person! Beer was great and the smoked wings were amazing!
Food was great but pricey. 5$ to add bacon is quite expensive. Mimosas were lacking flavor although they were strong. So that's good. Food was good as well and got seated pretty quickly despite being told it would be about an hour wait. Everyone was friendly and the whole place was nice. Water glasses smelled like eggs though so that was a bit disgusting. Parking also was full so had to find street parking.
Enjoyed the atmosphere. The food and drinks were delicious. Perfect place to end the weekend in Austin.
Lively eatery on the east side. Cater to medium size groups. It can get pretty noisy.
Overall good American cuisine well prepared. Some dishes arrived not really warm and service could be a little more careful.
Decent parking in the back and outdoor patio too.

Impromptu Date Nite Vibes
My bf wanted to come out for an intimate neighborhood vibe to wind down for the evening. The bartender was awesome. Food was excellent! I actually haven't been here in a while, and it was everything I remembered.
Sunday brunch -- you guessed it, packed. But we got a parking spot only one street away, and we were able to make a reservation that morning, arriving just before 1 pm. Casual fun vibes. Group and family friendly!
The portions are really big for some things such as fries and french toast (which we had had before). For other items, not so much. We got some arugula salad that was mainly a pile of dressed arugula for 19 dollars. Sparse on cheese, a few thin slices of apple, missing the fruit, and exactly 6 pieces of candied pecans (huh?). Flavor was not bad. I'd say not worth it. Pricey even for ATX. I guess you don't go for salad.
We also ordered mac n cheese with buffalo cauliflower since they were out of the blackened chicken. Very yummy, but I'd skip the cauliflower because it was drenched in sauce. (I miss the old mac n cheese with shells as pasta!) Additionally got the avo toast, which is boldly served as sliced baguette halves but makes up for it in flavor. Colorful, playful, and hits the senses with acidity and crunch.
Things they were out of that day: blackened chicken, salmon, fruit cup. It's the business's main day of the week, so I hope that that's an anomaly.
Do recommend getting your mimosa on here! But go elsewhere for coffee. Medium-sized cup but they poured it two-thirds of the way full.
The food and drinks were good, but the service is what ranked this place as 5 stars for me. We came in with a large group without a reservation (shame on us) and the accommodated us no questions asked. Stored all our luggage, brought around extra chairs, and immediately got drinks started for us all with a smile. I’d highly recommend for parties coming in!
The food and drinks were above what we expected. The cerviche is on point. Definitely rated at the top of my list.
Delicious brunch! Unlike so many brunch spots lately, this has the combo of great ambiance, excellent mimosa deal, and legitimately delicious food. Everyone enjoyed what they had, I got the bagel with lox and it was one of the best I’ve had in Austin. Put this at the top of your list for a solid brunch place in Austin!
Just had an amazing brunch here!!! The food was fantastic! The mimosas delicious and the waitstaff super friendly. Shout out to Sami who took very good care of us and made our first time here super memorable! My friend and I will absolutely be adding this spot as a go-to brunch options.
At first I was a bit hesitant of coming to this place because I was not sure if it’s worth it. It was a first time for me and my friend. My friend asked the bartender for her recommendation. She recommend him the shrimp and grits. I went with it. It was the best I’ve ever had. Would go here again.
