My wife and I went here today for a lunch date because I wanted to try a new burger place and we live nearby. Initially when we pulled up, it looks like a dive bar but the inside was well kept and inviting. As a non-regular, I wasn't exactly sure which door to go in (it's the one with the restaurant name on it lol). When we went in, there were two people at the bar and nobody dining in. Our first table was dirty so we moved to another and placed our order. The waitress was extremely friendly, getting us anything we needed and bringing us a small pitcher of water to refill with - I drink a lot of water intentionally and wish more restaurants would do this!!! We started off with the appetizer of fried mushrooms/cauliflower (a half-and-half). The mushrooms are the darker pieces and the cauliflower were the lighter ones. I did not eat the mushrooms, my wife tried the cauliflower but the mushrooms were definitely for her. We both had pieces that were cold in the center and some of her mushrooms leaked a bit of juice, but most of it was hot and crispy. For my main course, I got the patty melt with tater tots. The patty melt was juicy with a little bit of pink, but a tad under-seasoned. The tater tots were crispy, salty, and very tasty! My wife got the Hindenburger, which came with jalapenos, pepperjack cheese and nuclear sauce. It was definitely spicy but had good flavor! We got anything needed during the meal and had a very enjoyable lunch. I would return again and try other items that sounded equally delicious.

Got a groupon coupon, and my wife and I always love trying new places…read more Lavista Nines is inside what looks like a glorious hotel. There were a few tables seated, I have to say I'm surprised due to the quality of the food it wasn't packed. Maybe word of mouth will help. Waitress came and took our order, my wife.got a Ceasar Side salad which has broken the mold of expectations of your usual side salad fare. Very fresh ingredients including cherry tomatoes, kalamata olives, and a great dressing mixed in. For a side salad the portion was huge. My wife ate some and had me finish the rest. Next came a flavorful spinach Artichoke dip. Not to be repetitive, but once again very fresh vegetables came with the dip along with some flatbread and pita chips. Had a great burger the menu described as a beyond burger and added pecan bacon and mushrooms. Was perfectly cooked, juicy and full of flavor. My wife had the fish and chips that were cooked to a golden brown, and very juicy and fresh. Both dishes came with excellent fries that were crisp, and not sure how they were seasoned but there was something that added an amazing flavor. Looking forward to another trip back and hoping to try different menu options. They did not disappoint

We stayed at the Embassy Suites in Lavista and the front desk attendant told us we couldn't make a…read morereservation at their on-site restaurant The Nines "because it's open to the public", which doesn't make any sense, but she said we should come early because it's Saturday night and to expect a wait. We showed up around 6:30 with a party of 4 expecting to wait for a table, but were seated right away because we were the only table in the restaurant at that time. We quickly learned why. Waiter was awkward and inattentive. We had to ask several times for our drinks to be refilled. The mahi mahi was delicious, but sides were lacking. Flavorless rice pilaf and Brussels sprouts that were at the same time undercooked and burned. French dip sandwich had good beef and cheese, but the dipping sauce was odd and lacked flavor. Burger was dry and overcooked. Ordered a lime margarita, and when all the other drinks were delivered except that one, the waiter said it was because they were out of lemonade - when delivered, the "lime margarita" was lemonade and tequila. We ordered cheese nachos later to our room, along with their "bread service" and cheesecake. The nachos didn't have anything on them resembling cheese - it's supposed to have a black bean and corn salsa, but it seemed like a corn chowder with black beans added in; they were just gross. The bread is just a couple of hard rolls and cold butter packets. The cheesecake was absolutely delicious, but I'm so sad to have wasted the money and the delivery fee on the rest of it. Between when we arrived and when we left around 7:30, we were one of three tables being served in the whole restaurant. On a Saturday night. Food and service are definitely not worth it.

Theatre was clean, food was great, food service outstanding, theatre was quiet and perfectly lighted. Yes, you have to use your phone to order, but the background on your phone is dark, it is not too hard to keep from bothering other patrons. It helps if you do a tiny bit of homework and order B4 the show starts. Overall, yes, the prices have gone up, but so has everything else. At least the service is quick and quiet, the food is delicious and the customer service at the front desk (Thanks again, Adam) reminds me of the pre-covid days.

I hate to give bad review to a place that has been pretty much a home away from home for me since…read morethey first opened, but these recent developments are just not it. The Alamo Drafthouse used to be the place where you could trust that people wouldn't spend the entire movie talking or being on their phones, because it was a core tenet of the place that you would get kicked out for talking or texting etc. All you had to do was raise a card, "and a manager will take care of it." In my experience, this policy really hasn't been enforced much over the last few years, but as of this month, they have confirmed that they no longer care at all. As of now, you have to use your phone to order food or report talking/phone use. The ordering cards are no longer an option, there are no menus at each seat, only a QR code,and all throughout the movie, if you need anything, you're going to have to get your phone out. And once you do, good luck even getting the site to actually load. They have a really hilarious new announcement at the beginning of every movie about how they understand the irony of asking people not to use their phones (except to order), "just don't be a jerk about it." This new mobile-only experience is completely hostile to their customers, and has removed the human element that was a big part of what originally made the Alamo Drafthouse special. B&B theaters offers auditoriums with playgrounds in them, so kids can run around play during the movie. Sadly, a sold out screening at one of those is likely a less distracting movie-going experience than our last several visits to the drafthouse since the changes were put in place.

We visited Liquid Sunshine for a trivia night. The bar side of the location, separated from the…read morerestaurant side, was a ghost town. The restaurant was quickly filled by trivia contestants. We sat at a table, to see the folks giving out questions. The booths make viewing difficult. Next time we'll try a booth, as they look more comfortable. Service started out sparse. That poor woman was already slim, and the volume of people, with just one waitress, guaranteed she'd be slimmer by end of night. They got it together and provided some help for her for serving. The staff was good, friendly and enjoyable. I expect that someone was missing that day, as it seemed unusual for the lone waitress. She was even kind enough to apologize to us and ask for patience. That was something I appreciated. The did give us everything we ordered and it was all good, both food and drinks. Not too memorable, but good. The location has immensely high ceilings with movie posters on them. A giant fan keeps the air moving. It was a good and useful appearance. One I appreciated. Parking was easy. Being attached to Alamo Drafthouse, one could find that difficult, but fortunately. The lot is huge, facing north and wrapping around the east side. Trivia was fun. While we didn't do as well as the rest of the mob, we had fun! That, diligent service, reasonable eats and drinks, and easy parking made it an event we will likely attend again. Bonus that one can visit this before or after a movie without leaving the building. I recommend it.

Expensive! I bought two tap beers, gin and tonic, and Long Island ice tea. $48. I travel all over…read morethe country and this is once the highest prices I've ever paid for a round. Too bad, nice ambiance and outdoor seating is cool.

The pancakes were actually my favorite part of the meal. They were fluffy and well done. I asked for extra butter because that's who I am. I also had the steak and eggs with breakfast potatoes the steak was pretty good eggs were eggs and the breakfast potatoes were kind of your standard hashbrowns. A couple people in our group had the scramble and really enjoyed it. They got the junior size, which would've been plenty for most adults. I can't even imagine what the larger sizes look like. My partner had an omelette with some fresh fruit. The fruit was actually pretty fresh and the omelette was yummy. The homemade blueberry muffin was her favorite part. The coffee was fresh and plenty; our table also got one of the big cinnamon rolls, which seems to be a staple at this restaurant to share and well it didn't last very long. This is a perfect family friendly restaurant. There's something on that menu for everybody and even despite the wait, it would still be a great place to go back with any size group. Wheelchair accessibility: the parking situation for this restaurant is kind of weird, especially for this type of restaurant which has a traditionally older clientele there were very few accessible spots. In fact, parking was hard to come by at all, which I guess speaks to the popularity of the spot. But we had at least two cars that needed accessible parking, and neither of us could find it. The restaurant itself is pretty good. There's a variety of seating options with plenty that would accommodate a wheelchair. The bathroom door was OK and there was a stall that worked great with all the usual amenities involved

I will start off by saying that the staff here were all excellent, everyone was warm and friendly. The atmosphere was fine, it is in a new build in the middle of a suburban area, so it was about what i expected, it was nice and laid back. My wife ordered two of their specialty cocktails and they were both very good, I liked the queen bee the best. The food was very good as well, we started with a beef wonton appetizer, it was really good, it had nice pieces of rare beef with onions, slaw, and sauce on some very crispy wontons.

The marsala chicken was tender and flavored well, and came on a bed of risotto and Brussels sprouts, the sprouts were excellent and all three ingredients worked very well together.
