I'm not sure if they still host their Halloween party but back in the day it was legendary and packed!

We tried the loaded fries, Chop Chop sandwich, Cubano, and several drinks, and everything was delicious. The service was also amazing, she was friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. We were already talking before we left about coming back for football watch parties and girls' nights. Great food, great drinks, great service, and exactly the kind of atmosphere you want in a neighborhood bar. Truly one of Bee Cave's hidden gems!

Great spot to hang out on the patio and listen to live music or watch a game! My friends and I were…read morein town for the holiday and decided to stop by for some local flavor after seeing the live music sign outside. The majority of the property is covered by an expansive patio area, perfect for groups. They have a number of large tables, small tables and even chaise lounge chairs - whatever makes you comfortable! We arrived later in the night just as the live band was wrapping up but there were many of people out back watching the World Cup game. In terms of drinks, I got the skinny rabbit margarita and it was fantastic. It far exceeded my (admittedly, low) expectations. It had a mint accent which was delicious, and combined with a tajin rim, the perfect summer drink. Don't worry, if you don't like mint, they will happily leave it out. My friends got an espresso martini, customized without baileys or dairy, and enjoyed it for a bar that doesn't seem like they would even have espresso martinis. One odd note that I did notice is that the handwashing sink for the restrooms is outside of the restroom and around the corner both inside and outside. At first I thought that they did not have handwashing sinks and was confused but noticed them once I left. Hopefully people remember to do this when they leave!!

When you come in you order at the bar the bartender was really nice and friendly and answered any questions that we had. Then you take a table and wait for your food I think normally you're supposed to pick up your food at the counter but she wasn't very busy so she brought the food to our table. It's a bar like atmosphere but it's a family restaurant at the same time they have cute decor inside obviously Rabbit themed and they do have a really nice back yard outside area seating where they have music. Son got the enchiladas were delicious I did get a bite of them very good portion and the brisket inside was just so tender. My shrimp salad tasted like it had homemade dressing on it was very amazing I would say it would've been a perfect salad if it just had avocado on it. It just needed something. Will be back for the music!

I came to Austin for the week to cat-sit for my daughter and asked two strangers on South Lamar…read morewhere a woman traveling alone could find live music. Without hesitation, they both pointed me to Donn's Depot. They were absolutely right. From the moment I walked in, the place felt authentic. Not curated. Not trendy. Just a room full of people genuinely enjoying one another. The bartender was friendly, the regulars immediately welcomed a complete stranger to their table, and before long I was swapping stories with some of the kindest people I've met in a long time. Murphy's In-Laws were fantastic. Their musicianship was outstanding, and after I asked about a James Taylor song, they dusted off Steamroller--a song they hadn't played in years--and performed it like they had played it during warm-ups. Definitely not for the "first time in 15 years." They threw in "Shower the People" for me afterward! Donn's is one of those local favorites that is unforgettable because it provides moments you can't plan. One thing to know before you go: they don't serve meals, but they do have complimentary popcorn (which was great to discover if you haven't eaten anything prior to liquor)! What stayed with me most wasn't just the music. It was the hospitality. A stranger (who overheard my desire to hear Steamroller) quietly paid for my song request. A table of regulars pulled up a chair and made room for me. No one asked why I was there by myself. They simply welcomed me and nick-named me, "San Antonio." From a mic. If you're looking for polished nightlife, this may not be your place--but you probably need to go anyway. If you're looking for authentic Austin, genuine people, excellent live music, and an evening that reminds you how kind strangers can be, don't miss Donn's Depot. Keep Austin Great, y'all!

This unpretentious, eclectic, festive, multi-generational dive is off the rails. Get it?…read more Named after Donn, a local legend, who plays piano or tends bar at least once a week. The authentic but repurposed train station opened in 1972. In fact, a vintage railcar serves as an elevated viewing area of the dance floor, and you may want to check out the women's caboose. Literally, the depot has a caboose for a restroom! Going on a Friday night, we paid the $10 cover and it was a little crowded, but there were a few seats at the picnic tables in the wrap-around patio and I managed to step on only a few feet on the small dance floor, dancing to Donn and his Station Masters playing honky-tonk soul, western swing, and rock and roll covers. If you want a fun night, choo-choo-choose Donn's Depot. :

The new manager has hired an awesome new team and everyone seems truly happy to be working here. The bar side is floor to ceiling windows overlooking the lake with 2 flat screen TVs. The Grill side also has great views of the lake as well as a patio overlooking the awesome 3 level pool below. The two 1 star complainers are "Lame!!!!" The Bar and Grill serve the same food and the current menu is a mix of healthy salads and "Weekly Fish Special Prepared With a Heart Healthy Diet in Mind" so to the person complaining that they do not have "chicken fingers on the menu!" go to xyz... and Mr. complainer about "High prices" it's a Hotel Restaurant! and the prices are not anymore expensive than a mediocre hotel restaurant without the awesome views... I have had the Chicken Quesadillas served with Pico and Guac topped with an Adobo sauce ($7) a fresh salad topped with grilled shrimp and nicely seasoned croutons, and a trout topped with smoked almonds and lemon rosemary butter. All past lunch visits have been tasty with great service. Most recently I had a late breakfast here and it was just about as good as it gets! I sat on the patio enjoying the nice weather while digging into my healthy breakfast of Egg White Omelet with spinach, mushroom and pepper jack cheese served with a side of nicely seasoned breakfast potatoes. The breakfast menu is not on-line but it features all the usual egg dishes Migas etc.. The Omelets are 9.00 with 2 options 50 cents extra for each additional and come with breakfast potatoes, grits, muffin or toast. Egg dishes can be prepared with egg whites or egg beaters for the health conscious dinner!

I had a pecan waffle with fresh fruit and it was yummy! I also had eggs and some bacon. They were good. But again, I would think it's really hard to screw up eggs and bacon. That waffle though....love! My husband ordered the migas. Now, being that we are from San Antonio, TX we are used to some of the BEST Mexican breakfast food around. So if course we're a little biased. But they were decent.
