I came here to celebrate my birthday. This was my first time and I was not disappointed. The service was very nice from the moment I entered to speak with the hostess to when we thanked our server, London as we were leaving. Outstanding! The food was very delicious. I ordered the Turkey Club and subbed my fries with a house salad. The sandwich was thick and filled with juicy Turkey and tomatoes. The dressing was lite. I really liked it. The salad was fresh and crispy. We ordered chicken wings as our appetizer and they were thick too with lots of meat coming with celery and carrots. Everything was very delicious. The ambiance was wonderful. We sat outside and had a great view of the sunset. There were misting machines to keep us cooler. There was also indoor seating. The Canyon Grille has valet parking or you can park in the parking lot which is a few hundred yards away. Thank you Canyon Grille and London for providing me a memorable birthday weekend! read more

Their app easy to use to order food for pick up. Both my friend and I had the Salmon Berry Salad to go. It was just large enough and so delicious. The warm salmon was wrapped in foil and placed on top of the veggies so it didn't wilt my mixed greens. read more

4.5 Stars A wonderful restaraunt on the Lake Travis, with lots of healthy, filling options. It was hard to choose with so many yummy looking options. The calamari ($18) was fried crispy and had yummy fried jalapeños as well. The Ahi Poke Bowl ($19) is large, fresh, well presented and wonderful. There is a large outdoor patio and lots of indoor seating with lake views. Service is awesome. read more

Our first time here with a group of 7 and it was great! Food was delicious and well portioned. The breakfast potatoes were so good! Loved the lemon and blueberry waffles. Our server got drinks and food out in a timely manner which was appreciated. Service was pretty fluid although at checkout i know splitting checks gets a little chaotic, I wish the waiter had just asked each person to go through the items they were paying for instead of putting what he thought was right and then having to go back and forth with correcting the order. read more

Came up from driftwood for sunset views and CG didn't disappoint! Came on a Saturday evening right before sunset and it was bustling! Service was top notch and fast! Drinks are made well. No reservations for parties less than 8. Shrimp scampi pasta was delish ( more on the Alfredo vs buttery side) ...fish and chips, perfectly battered! Get a table on the patio for great views of the marina! Skip the oasis touristy spot. read more

My wife and I went to the Canyon Grille last night. We had been one other time, soon after new ownership. The first time, nothing much had changed with the food. However, when we went last night, there was a new menu and a lot of new items. The food we had was very good and we are very excited. The staff was also good. I got the pork carnitas tacos, my wife got the salmon salad and we shared a piece of buttermilk pie. It was all very good and fresh. It was packed and lively. read more

My guest drove an hour and we boated across the lake for 35min, got there 40min before they closed and they turned us (and 4 other groups of people) away. The restaurant was completely full when we arrived. They have a new policy where they stop seating 45 minutes before closed, too bad they didn't tell anyone. It's disappointing to see them treating their local customers like this. read more

Came at 5:30pm on Saturday night before the 7:30pm comedy show in the pavilion. Knowing that the comedy show would draw extra diners, I expected to wait for a table and allowed time for that. I was surprised, however, that there was a wait when more than 10 tables were empty. Management did not adequately staff their kitchen and they were short servers, despite knowing that the event was likely to bring more than usual customers. What made the experience unpleasant was that two people (one man and one woman) who appeared to be managers took out their stress on the young ladies who were working the hostess stand. Despite being yelled at for seating customers at tables when there weren't enough servers to attend to them and the kitchen was backed up, the lovely hostesses handled themselves beautifully and were very sweet to the waiting customers. If I had been one of the hostesses working that night, I would have cried and probably walked out if my manager spoke to me the way they did. Even though the managers made the experience uncomfortable, the food was good and the young lady bartender was a real pro. I hesitate to return even though I live in the neighborhood. read more

This place used to be good, but it changed hands and has gone way down. We ate there today and the silverware was dirty, with food stuck on the fork and the knife looked like it had been wiped instead of washed. The club sandwich had bacon that was barely cooked, with chicken pieces that looked over-cooked. It was supposed to have avocado on it, and it did if you like a tiny smear of mashed avocado. When we wanted to pay our bill, even though there were very few people there, the server was no where to be found. We won't be going back. read more

Great food at a reasonable price. Service was spot on, attentive but not smothering. Dining area a little loud. Kids welcome, though there were a few running around. Overall good place. read more

We decided to have a pre Valentine's dinner last night. We sat at the table in the dining room for a while with no service. We left the table to head to the bar where we did receive service. Ordered the Redfish, it came out very dry. For dessert ordered the cheesecake, it was awful. Definitely not running back..... read more

We took our kids here for a nice holiday dinner. We were all very impressed at the food and service. Nice work.

This is a pretty busy little spot when the weather is nice. I got sports bar vibes on the interior & casual restaurant vibes on the exterior. I imagine a majority of the patrons are from the neighborhood. It's right next to the marina and some community amenities. We ate here during our weekend stay at Lakeway Resort, only a few mins away. Our server (Margarita, I think) was pretty awesome. Despite the kitchen being busy and out of one entree that we wanted, Margarita was very accommodating and super sweet! We were just enjoying the lovely afternoon and view of the lake/boats while seated on the patio and in no particular rush. It was a Saturday so there was plenty of traffic going to and from the tram thing that carries folks to and from their boats/the dock. Overall the food was good from the spinach queso and redfish to the sweet potato fries and amazing Brussel sprouts. They weren't "bad" but I probably wouldn't order the chicken tenders again. For 10% off be sure to use the check-in! read more

Beautiful place to eat with amazing food. However, just be prepared for slow service. I saw several people who were upset about how slow it was to get their food or bills. We had a large group and were seated quickly. It took a while to get our waitress's attention. We started off with the calamari appetizer which was hot and fried perfectly. I got the redfish special which had a lot flavor. The mashed potato and brussel sprout sides were also delicious. My husband enjoyed his fish tacos - a little spicy for me. Great food but just make sure you're not in a rush. They are understaffed and usually at full capacity of people being served. read more

This restaurant is certainly busy and the entire staff hustles and bustles for a neighborhood grill. Overall, drinks are made with care and the entrees and starters are an assortment of the grill spectrum. Had the French dip and the Ahi Salad. For $20, the French dip was enormous. Not sure how to consume something like this but you get plenty to share. The ahi tuna salad was absolutely packed in a deep bowl so challenging to get all the flavors at once. Includes rice at the very bottom and super fresh veggies. I would recommend less cabbage and more rice, preferably jasmine instead of long grain. The tuna was in large cold chunks piled on top so I suggest mixing it throughout. Whatever season is used, I would recommend to the chef to toss the seasoning with fresh tuna poke right before serving. As is, it was dry and clumpy. With this said, I do recommend. The staff was knowledgeable and attentive. read more

Classic brunch lunch restaurant. Super cool views and great vibe. And the food was great also

Enjoyed this place 100%. Five thumbs up for food because everyone at the table were happy. Shrimp tacos with black beans and grilled asparagus , Kobe burger with sweet potato waffle fries, Asada steak tacos with cilantro rice and white potato waffle fries, Power bowl vegan, and kids Mac and cheese meal. Our hostess and waitress, Margarita (probably not correct spelling), was so inviting from beginning to end of our meal. It was a cold day, the dining room was nearly full, and she suggested outdoor seating. We cringed loudly, but she quickly said special words such as "heated" and "very warm". Frowns were turned right-side up because we made a good choice. We had the whole closed patio to ourselves and perfectly toasty, genuinely relaxed. The main floor is small and quaint. Restrooms were clean. They were short staffed, but we couldn't tell. read more

I love this hidden gem! We will be back. Plenty of parking, and a large selection of food and drinks. They have fire pits on the outdoor patio too, nice to grab one of those for the chillier days/sunsets. My fave wine here so far is the French rosé. We had the mahi taco - well seasoned and tender. The burger was excellent. Cooked perfectly. Shishito peppers could have been a bit more charred. I would suggest pillows for the cold metal chairs and the bathroom smelled pretty bad - both the men's and women's...Id expect better from this place. Glad I went in after eating or I might have lost my appetite. Views are so pretty too. A view of the lake and a small infinity pool. Feels like a resort. Staff was attentive and friendly. Overall great experience. read more

A while back, I gave Canyon Grill a pretty bad review. I'd said we come back , everybody has a bad day. This time I give them a solid 3 1/2 stars. We ordered a couple of cheeseburgers. They came perfectly cooked and presented. We'll be back again soon, good job read more

New owners, old staff is gone, new menu...will let you know. It" take at least 3 visits to rate. Unfortunately, not in a rush.

For a casual lunch or dinner spot, this is great for the views. However, my boyfriend ordered the crab stuffed flounder and we were shocked how small the portion was! He was still hungry after dinner. For a $33 meal, we were both expecting a lot more. Service was decent and my shrimp scampi had slightly bitter aftertaste. Maybe we should have ordered different items? read more

This is a fair sized restaurant with about equal amount of indoor and covered outdoor seating. We sat indoors as there was a wait for outdoors. Inside the lighting is subdued and tables are still sufficiently spaced which is good. If you live in this community/neighborhood you'll probably be one of the regulars as there aren't a lot of other options within a short drive. Considering the affluent area it's in prices are relatively reasonable. I had fish tacos which were ok although not outstanding. The prime rib is a huge portion accompanied by an extremely hefty and delicious baked potato and very charred Brussels sprouts (all of which had to be packed to go as no one could eat all of it in one sitting). read more

I don't know what is wrong with this new ownership. My in laws went two weeks ago and told us they got sick and that it wasn't that good anymore. We thought how bad can it be and gave it a try last night well today we are sick! Tea was disgustingly fermented (had to return it, fries looked old so we didn't eat them and still we are so sick. read more

Such a great place! This place is on the water with a great view. The food was pretty good and the Mexican martinis hit the spot. They have their own parking lot which is a plus. All in all a great little find on our staycation in lake way! read more

Wow. The first time I've been back since new owners. So disappointed. Fish and chips. Three tiny pieces. Used to be 4 nice size. Salads are weak. If you don't get the protein add on it's a big bowl of lettuce. Salads are now $20. Not sure what's happening. So disappointed. Asked to speak to a manager and they never showed up. read more

Good food. Good service. Great views from the patio. #slamdunk We were headed over to Lake Travis from downtown. We wanted lunch with a view that was tasty and didn't break the bank. This place was #1 on our list and it was everything we hoped for! The three of us devoured their chips & queso--it was legit. Those chips were thin, hot, crispy and had the perfect amount of salt. The queso dip was served warm and delicious. I'd go back just for the chips 'n queso. Their taco salad blew me away-not only is it humongous, but it's delicious! You won't believe its size. Share it with a friend. The view of the lake is best from the patio, but when we were there it was just too hot for us to eat outside. I imagine at sunset that is the perfect place to be. The service was good, not too memorable in any way, which can be a good thing, I guess. All and all, you better believe I'd recommend this spot. The food was really tasty. Our view wasn't the greatest since we had to eat inside, but the area around the restaurant is beautiful. You can easily find some great selfie spots with Lake Travis as the backdrop. Also, the drive there is fun as the area is in an upper class neighborhood. Some of the homes on the lake on your way there will make you say, "oh, wow, look at that." If you're thinking of giving this spot a shot, I'd say go for it. I don't have any reservations about recommending it to anyone looking for lunch or dinner with a view on Lake Travis.

Excellent service & delicious food! Had ribs, fries & calamari. Wife had sweet potato fries & chicken sandwich Would come back in a heartbeat.

Food, drinks and atmosphere never disappoint. Try the shishito peppers and Marg/swirl. Always great service especially at the bar and on patio. They used to have one waitress who wore waaaay too much makeup and it was very distracting and she was slow, but last two times see that she's left. read more

I was pleasantly surprised with this place, for some reason I expected overpriced food and small portions, neither of which was the case. My husband and I split the turkey club, which I thought was great - crispy toasted bread, really tasty flavored mayo, and I loved the avocado on it. He also got a wedge salad which he liked a lot, and my father-in-law loved his french dip. And everything was reasonably priced, $14.50 for a large sandwich and fries is very fair. I was going to take off one star for the wine and the fries. The wine itself was fine, J. Lohr is one of my affordable go-to wines. But they served it in a plastic cup, not a real wine glass. For a restaurant that says they have a wine list with extraordinary selections, not using a real, proper wine glass is inexcusable. And the waffle fries were horrible - way undercooked, and not a grain of salt on them. There was salt on the table, but they really need to be salted out of the fryer, putting salt on after just isn't the same. But, the service was really good, and I did enjoy my sandwich a lot, so settled on 4 stars. read more

The new management has absolutely killed this place. This was never someplace one went for great food, but they had very low turnover and it was a neighborhood place we came to to be with friends. My family used to dine here at least 3-4 times per week, including Thursday evening dinner and Sunday brunch. All of the familiar faces have been fired, although none of them deserved it, they brought the place alive and kept it hopping. Now, I'm fairly certain the only employees who are doing well at the restaurant, by the owners standards, are those who don't like the customers! Hmmm. After three terrible experiences in a row and consulting with everyone I know who have had equally horrible experiences, I'm out! I'll never go back. By the way, the Chili level food has gone down hill, service is non-existent, and the up charge policy is ridiculous. A couple of alternate suggestions for anyone who does not belong to The Hills CC: The Grove on 620 if you are looking for a view and better food. The service is professional and they have a lovely and clean patio - the bathrooms are always very clean. They have a very nice wine list and even serve wine flights. I haven't had a better piece of salmon in town. I would also suggest Angel's if you're looking to duplicate the homey, friendly, can't wait to see you again staff with some really nice new food choices since their way cool remodel. Say hi to Kevin or Bryan at the bar. They are stellar. It's also great for sports, people watching, outdoor dining, and is dog friendly. Good luck new owners, this one's definitely a miss. read more

Under new ownership and not what it used to be, not even close. We used to come here twice a week and meet all our friends here. In fact we'd have to get there by 4:30 pm just to get a seat. That is no longer the case, unfortunately. We went there last night to see if the food was any better and the place was almost empty at 6pm. The changes they've made are not good at all, so disappointing as this used to be our "good to spot" for all of us. It's really too bad because we all live in the neighborhood, but we're not going back anymore. read more

This place has been my best find in 2021. To start the Canyon Grille offers amazing views of the lake, indoor and outdoor seating are both great (depending on the weather of course). The staff is always very friendly and make you feel right at home, which is great for me since I'm new to the area :). Atmosphere is upscale casual but not at all snobby. It's a good place to take a break from cooking enjoy great food and amazing views without breaking the bank. So far Ive tried their Burgers and fish tacos ....DELICIOUS, and their Espinaca Queso (spinach cheese dip) is a must have. read more
