    Chicken & Biscuits
    Izzie P.

    Amazing food!!! We went on a Monday for breakfast happy hour and it was PERFECTION. The servers were amazing and super helpful. Vibes are good and it's a cute spot. I'll have to come back to see how their famous Caesar salad is

    I've been here twice for brunch and I'm a fan. Really good food. Nice cocktails. Good prices. Nice people. Laid back atmosphere.

    No wait on a Sunday morning at 11! Friendly service, delicious food with good portion sizes. Good drinks as well. We'll be back soon

    House omelette 7/26
    Linda L.

    Amazing, fresh and quick! We had the granola bowl, grilled chicken pesto sandwich and the house omelette with hash-browns. Everything tasted great! My favorite was the grilled chicken sandwich! We will be back! You definitely have to give this place a shot.

    Crispy Cauliflower Bites (New)
    Andrew C.

    Dish Society is a solid fast-casual spot with a clean, modern aesthetic. You order at the counter, and everything runs pretty efficiently, which is great for a quick, casual meal. The food is good overall--fresh, well-prepared, and reliable--but it doesn't quite reach the level of being incredible. That said, the salads stand out for their good portion size, making them a satisfying and healthier option if that's what you're after. Crispy Cauliflower was a bit of a miss for me - fried but sitting in some overly sweet sauce. A few bites were more than enough to satiate the curiosity. All in all, it's a dependable choice when you want something quick, clean, and decent without too much fuss.

    Shrimp & Grits
    Airon A.

    Dish Society is a restaurant known for clean, intentional ingredients. I visited the South 1st location and there is parking available in the parking garage with 2 hours of validation. I ended up parking on the street. I had brunch at Dish Society and you can either order from a QR code on your table or order at the counter. I downloaded their app and initially was sent an offer for a free beverage. I ordered the Spiced Apple Cider and it hit the spot and was so warm and flavorful the perfect comfort beverage. For my breakfast entree I ordered the Shrimp and Grits, gulf shrimp, smoked gouda grits, tabasco shallot butter sauce, bacon crumbles, sunny side vital farms egg. I got the Tabasco sauce on the side and the grits had a great flavor and texture for a very savory and flavorful dish. I also came during the social hour and took advantage of $7 cocktails and ordered the spicy strawberry margarita with socorro tequila, paula's orange, jalapeño, strawberry, tajin. I used my free bday entree coupon from the app to order the Citrus glazed salmon to go. It had pan seared citrus glazed salmon with organic quinoa, tomato, red onion, avocado, citrus segments, & mint. I also added the quinoa stuffed avocado halves topped with organic citrus quinoa, tomato and onion, citrus segments, mint, & organic greens with white balsamic vinaigrette. The to-go food was packed securely and was still fresh to consume when I arrived at home. Service was attentive and friendly, the ambiance was inviting, and the menu has a great balance of indulgent dishes and lighter, health-conscious options. I already got a $5 off coupon through the app and am planning a return visit to try other appealing items from the menu.

    They do a nice breakfast. You have to deal with the parking garage but maybe that is better than street parking at most places. We stopped by on a Sunday morning. After you enter, pick up a menu and look through, making your selections and ordering at the cash register counter. It is a bit impersonal and again challenges the concept of tipping. You are given a number, and you have to gather your own drinks. The food order is brought out to you. Again, tipping is based on service and there is basically none, food delivery is not service. The Food was good and I would return after we try other Austin breakfast spots. You can see my pictures to see what we had.

    One of Dish Society's locations is on S First Street in Austin, TX in the Willa complex (other location at Mueller). The space is modern and inviting with its bright yellow umbrella tables. The restaurant has extensive indoor and outdoor seating and full-service bar with TVs for sports. There is also a walk-up window for coffee and "to go" orders. Dish Society also has complimentary parking. Dish Society is a farm-to-table café that sources most of its ingredients from Texas suppliers. The menu blends healthily with comfort food options. While Dish Society appears to have many food and drink offerings, we were at Dish Society to taste their Matcha. Of all the Matcha lattes we tasted today during the Matcha Half Marathon, Dish Society's Matcha lattes had the strongest Matcha flavor and the most robust taste. To me, Dish Society's Matcha would be at the strongest end such an Extra Dark Roast v Mild or Medium Roast coffee. Look forward to returning to try their brunch and lunch items...

    Citrus glazed salmon
    Novalina N.

    Everything is very self-service here. Not a problem at all, just don't expect a server to attend your table. I came around 11:30 and the restaurant was pretty empty. For my lunch, I ordered the citrus glazed salmon as my entree. The salmon came beautifully prepared. It was perfectly crisp outside and tender inside. I was a little worried the dish would be too sweet or saucy, but that's not the case at all. Close to noon, the lunch crowd came and the restaurant got a lot busier. So come before noon if you can!

    Iced Large Latte
    Kristin S.

    They validate parking for 2 hours in the garage. Ordering is at the counter inside, from your table with a QR code, or outside at the service window. Cocktail: The cinnamon apple mule was a perfect balance of apple cinnamon. I had the grilled pesto chicken sandwich which was yummy, even though I'm not the biggest fan of goat cheese. Order a side of fries with it, you won't regret it! Their iced lattes are really good as well and would recommend it. They have many syrup flavors you can choose from.

    Traditional Breakfast & Single Pancake
    Nancy G.

    I thought this place was very delicious. You walk in and you order before you sit wherever you life. Staff is super friendly and welcoming. The place is very open and Austin friendly. Pancakes were very delicious, sold separately from the traditional breakfast. The jam that came with the traditional breakfast 10/10, tastes homemade, absolutely delicious. Very nice restaurant to go with family and friends. They do offer 2 hour parking vouchers if needed, there is also street parking a couple blocks down behind the building!

    Classic breakfast
    Kim D.

    The orange juice here is soooooo good! Freshly squeezed. The chai tea latte was also great! I love that it's a casual spot where you order at the counter but still feels homey, service was friendly, and restaurant vibes. They also validate parking for the garage underneath so it's super convenient. Food prices. Good food. I highly recommend!

    Burger
    David R.

    Interesting idea to order your meal first in a line, then sit down. The actual food is pretty good. The only interaction you get with the server is when they bring you your food but otherwise that is it so I can't really comment much on service. Inside looks modern with nice touches of greenery with evenly space tables that doesn't feel too crowded. food quality and presentation is pretty good. I will definitely be back.

While we're glad you joined us, I'm sorry to hear your breakfast experience didn't meet expectations. We'll be reviewing your comments with our culinary team to improve consistency. We appreciate you giving us a try and hope to provide a better experience in the future. Warm regards, Wes Brown It's great to receive a response from the business manager regarding our experience at their restaurant, but all four us thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast. We had absolutely no complaints regarding our dining experience. Caroline is affiliated with the Marriott Element and Aloft hotels and that, I believe, where the affiliation ends. I try to avoid hotel eateries but I've had great dining experiences at hotels like the JW Marriott in Austin. We, four, stopped by on a Sunday AM for breakfast and we had a great time. They do have brunch cocktails available and their bloody Mary's were deemed excellent with just the right amount of spice. My bloody Maria was on point and we all got our Sunday Funday started. Breakfast was wonderful. Our eggs arrived cooked perfectly. The pepper bacon and real potato sides were off the charts delicious. They also offer a few TexMex breakfast options and Plus one was raving about her Huevos Rancheros plate. Service was excellent even though they became busy our server was very attentive. Pro tip: Sat and Sun AMs if you arrive early you can easily score a table.

But I would still advise getting a reservation. There were three of us and we started out with the pastry of the day and the pull apart cinnamon roll. Both were excellent. Two of us got burgers and one of us got the chicken sandwich after that, and I was very glad that one of the others tried their burger before I did because the pickled onions on it were very spicy! The pickles are also spicy but not as bad as the onions. Once I scrape those off, it was a very tasty burger. The person who ordered the chicken sandwich said it could use a little more seasoning but other than that, it was good. We were going to order drinks but they didn't have the ingredients for the one drink we wanted, so we decided to skip that. The waitstaff was very friendly. We were glad we ordered the pastries first because it did take a while for our food to come out. I definitely recommend going there just to try the pastries! They have a small parking lot but they also own the building to the right of them so you can park in that lot also.

I opted just got an Arnold Palmer but the drink menu had some cute cocktails and mocktails, as well as a nice selection of beer and wine. Instead of bread, our server brought us a basket of seasoned popcorn. The popcorn had almost like a Cajun flair, but it wasn't spicy. It reminded me of the Ground Round chain from when I was a little girl. We decided to try the corndog shrimp appetizer. I couldn't decide on an entree because everything looked so good, so I did the Parmesan chicken and my coworker did the steak salad. The shrimp arrived so quickly with four large pieces of shrimp on a stick wrapped in corn dog batter and fried to a golden brown, with a blueberry mustard dipping sauce. The shrimp were delicious and while I didn't get much of the blueberry in the mustard, I enjoyed the sweetness it provided. My Parmesan chicken was a crispy and juicy breaded chicken cutlet with a lemon cream, artichoke hearts, and what appeared to be prosciutto on top. It was served with a side of pesto couscous with grape tomatoes and cucumbers. I wish I had ordered mashed potatoes on the side, because I wanted something to soak up the lemon cream sauce, which was the highlight of the chicken. We also were served 3 mini cornbread muffins with honey butter. My coworker said the salad was just okay, and was a little on the small side. The desserts were definitely a MUST and if you visit Moonshine and don't save room for the Espresso Brownie or the Peanut Butter Pie, you're going to regret it. The brownie was so fudgey and warm and served with ice cream. It was decadent. The peanut butter pie was the biggest slab of PB pie I've ever had with a thick Oreo crust. I wish I had someone with me to share it, it was huge. Overall, if I lived in the area I would definitely be back to try other things.

The pork belly sliders were also good, balancing all flavors perfectly. The fettuccine was good, not great. The chips and their texture took a lot away from what else was going on in the dish.

    Great menu and food, cozy venue (with indoor and patio seating), efficient server with experience,…read moreand reasonable prices for Austin. Had not been to this restaurant in a good while, and was a last minute decision. Good choice. The whipped feta is always a treat -- light and creamy with a solid feta taste, but not overpowering, served with a few orange slices and thinly sliced almonds, and pita. Special dish! Beet salad excellent, but the Fresno peppers had way too much heat, so pushed them to side. My wife had the Moroccan curry, which had a very spot on Moroccan flavor (been there 3x), and was a large, filling portion so brought home leftovers. I had the grilled pork chop which was large, perfectly grill with a tasty bourbon-based glaze, served with a large roasted garlic clove. Wonderful dish. My wife had a white wine that she enjoyed and my martini, slightly dirty with olives (to start) was a large pour and very smooth. Enjoyable meal in a nice setting once again ...

This place is so intoxicating from the aqua blue color palate and funky green art work to the alluring lighting and huge metal plate (looks like something from a ship...also their logo). My brother said the green artwork looked like broccoli. My brother ordered the Idaho trout with coconut rice and Brussel sprouts. I sampled his food and it was all good. The standout was the Brussel sprouts...crispy with this absolutely delicious drizzle. I ordered the Mezze plate with a flavor explosion and many desirable texture. It had lamb kabobs, fresh salad (emphasis on fresh) with thinly sliced cucumbers, finely sliced onions and creamy feta (never had creamy feta), red round sweet peppers, hummus with the most delightful pesto like sauce, and olives. Oh my...what a delicious lunch! Morgan, our server, was attentive and accomodating. She moved us to another table when we notice our table was rocking a little. Great catching up with my brother and excellent meal!

    My girlfriends and I were on a girls trip in Austin and we decided to stop here for brunch. It was…read moresuch a hit, this restaurant is our vibe and I wish we had it back home. The restaurant itself is decorated so nice, it's picture perfect. I also really appreciate a restaurant committed to having options that are seed oil free, from local farms and also having options without refined sugar. Miranda was our server and she was so kind and attentive. She made sure we had a great experience and was a pleasure to talk to. To eat I ordered the classic breakfast and to drink I had the vanilla maca. I didn't love the vanilla maca, and I only blame myself for that. I have never had maca so I didn't know what to expect but the drink basically tasted like a chocolate protein shake. Which isn't bad but I wanted like more of a latte so that was on me. My meal however? Loved it. Everything was so flavorful and hit the spot exactly with what I wanted. I also really appreciate a salad with breakfast since this helps lower your glucose spike and so when a restaurant offers this I know they know true wellness!!! My girlfriends both ordered the avocado toast and loved it. One ordered the cherry vanilla limeade and enjoyed it as well, but as an avid cherry hater I didn't try it...but if you like cherry she recommends it! I would come back to Austin just to eat here again. So good. So jealous this isn't back home... did I mention that already??!!

    I wanted to like this restaurant, but they made it hard to do. We started off with the guacamole…read more The pomegranate seeds on top were a nice touch, but man, this was flavorless. It was painfully boring. We had our 6-year-old, who is head of the Picky Eaters Society, so we ordered bread with butter. This 6-year-old, who eats bread on the daily, took one bite and wouldn't eat any more. We even get gluten-free bread regularly, and he eats it. The bread was fine, but don't expect flavor. By some miracle, they even made butter tasteless. I considered calling the Vatican to see if this was some holy, divine miracle, but my wife suggested maybe the main course would be better. We settled on the pesto pasta with chicken added for an additional fee. The pasta was good. Great texture, good flavor, and the combination of ingredients was good, but it's nothing original. It's pesto pasta. It's a classic. I appreciate the pomegranate seeds on the guacamole because it's original, it's clever, and it's different. We also ordered a special soda drink for our son, and it had a small black bug on top. I had them take it back and replace it. I kind of expected a "Listen, we apologize for the bug. Here's half off dinner," or something, but nothing. Service was fine, and it's a decent atmosphere. If you're looking for a place to sit and talk it's a great place, but if you want food or a drink go somewhere else.

    Restaurant week restaurant number one, and I was definitely not disappointed. Had a reservation and…read moregot sat near the same area as the first time and the gentleman who assisted me was also there. Of course, now I cannot remember their name however they also recalled me which was a nice little ketchup and a welcome back to the restaurant. For $75 you got four courses, including an appetizer pallet cleanser, main course and then dessert. The appetizer I went with the whipped ricotta that came with focaccia bread. It was a smaller version than their normal appetizer, but still just as tasty. Second course was a summer melon salad and this just paired beautifully to be nice light and refreshing right before you ended up having your main meal. This was a full-size so I definitely had leftovers. third course I went with the. smoke pork shoulder, which came out in a decent size I would say a full-size mill. The sauce with it as well as the sweet potatoes. Very nicely there was some seasoning on there that I couldn't quite put my finger on. I wish I would've asked what was on it overall very decent dish. Last but not least was dessert, which was the brown butter cake. And y'all when I say this was amazing. I'm so glad I saved room specifically for this because everything on it was delightful. The cake was soft and room temperature. The pecans on it were nice and candied. Very tasty. Also kind of soft due to sautéing. I wasn't too much of a fan of them meringue so I didn't eat that part of it. and the cinnamon gelato scoop on top pair really nicely as well. Overall, very consistent service from entering the restaurant to being sat to having the staff assist you. They definitely have a good teamwork system where someone sees that your plates finish or they ask for someone to assist if they might have their hands full. I really enjoy that about this restaurant.

    Excellent special occasional experience…read more I remember enjoying Intero when I first visited a few years back. For what reason, we haven't visited in sometime but decided to give it a try again since they are now a member of InKind. This place ended up being even better than I recall from our last visit! The service here was excellent, from the greetings at the door to the drink service, to the waitstaff, everyone was super attentive in our recent visit. We started the evening with some drinks, and I have to say that the "City Folk" beverage I ordered was a very delicious flip type drink. The focaccia with whipped butter is a hard appetizer to go wrong with, and the Wagyu beef carpaccio is also a great choice (in fact, these make a delicious combination). The melon apps are also quite good. For mains, we tried the moda famiglia (which was a very heathy serving size), the roasted oyster mushroom pizza (very good), Wagyu beef sausage (savory and mild meat), and rigatoni (honestly the mild horseradish cream really elevated this dish). Altogether there wasn't anything we didn't like. For dessert, we just got the house made chocolates, which were both fun to taste test and also quite delicious. The interior continues to give a dark, intimate sort of vibe (which makes it perfect for a date spot).
