    CaJJun Swamp Grits
    Brittany D.

    Southern Food in Texas! Came to this restaurant and the menu had so many items that we wanted to try, so we got lot. We got the Gumbo, Mac and cheese, swamp grits, side salad, the palmetto, CAJJUN BOUDAIN EGG ROLLS as appetizers, and two mocktails- the NOLA NOJITO and the HURRICANE WARNING. The portion sizes were really big, the server that we had was so nice and gave us the suggestions about the egg rolls- which I appreciated, those were great. The time we came, it wasn't too packed, but it definitely was busy. The place was real chill, relax place to chill at and get some food. The only fault I had, was the seasoning- it was HIGHLY seasoned, you don't need to add anything else. I definitely drank through so water, but it was good. I'm glad it was not under-seasoned. I want to go back and try their seafood boil!

    Service: was great! The waitress that tended our table was very sweet and accommodating to our requests and offered recommendations on which dishes to try. The food came out very quickly as well! Ambiance: the music was pretty loud, but when we asked for it to be turned down, the waitress was very receptive, which was nice. After the volume was turned down, the restaurant was quite pleasant. Something that surprised me was the dress code listed on the site, but it was reasonable, considering the precedent that the restaurant wanted to uphold. Food: the food was tasty, but I will say that it was on the saltier side for my taste, but it makes sense because I got the fried shrimp and tenders plate. The Cajun pasta and Cajun macaroni were pretty good, the seafood definitely elevated the flavor and the portions were very generous. Definitely recommend the pasta!

    Saturday night eats didn't disappoint. Our server was polite, attentive and friendly. He gave us menu recommendations and made sure we were good our entire time. The food was so delicious. I really enjoyed the cajun seafood pasta.

    How are we expected to eat with cheap plasticware?! A pork chop with flimsy plastic fork and knife? Unbelievable and the reason I won't be returning. Disappointing because I really enjoyed the food, especially the chicken and french toast. The french toast is not toast, but a large beignet. Both were delicious and enough to bring me back despite the service which was pretty non existent. But I can't overlook the plasticware when everything else is glass (plates/glasses).

    Went today for the first time with the hubby today. The customer service was awesome and so was the food.

    Recently stopped in for brunch and the French toast is still on my mind!! Their French toast tastes very similar to a funnel cake or beignet and it's simply delicious. It came with fried catfish which was fried to perfection and served with a yummy rémoulade sauce. We also order the shrimp and grits which was packed with flavor and so so good! Our server was friendly and attentive when we needed her. The restaurant is very lively and fun for a night out, birthday celebration or a casual Sunday. Add this to your list if you're in the North Austin area!

    I've been here a few times and it's always been a good vibe! The energy is always high and the food is usually good, it can be on the salty side when it comes to the fried seafood, but still tasty. The drinks are good and strong, the service is consistently good and the music is always on point. I look forward to sliding through every chance I get.

    This place is absolutely awesome. My family and I came for brunch. The portions are big enough if you're hungry. Personally I had the chicken and waffles. Two perfectly and fried seasoned, crunchy chicken thighs on top of a fluffy waffle. There are so many words to describe it, but to put it simply, heavenly. The fish was too! Our server Jessica was so kind and didn't leave us without what we needed. Make sure to ask for her and leave a big tip! The place has that "hole in wall" feel to it and great music playing too!

    We came in for a friend's birthday with a party of 10. Upon entering we noticed the modern decor , a large bar area with a stage near by, a large patio and plenty of seating. Our waitress Kiera was on point, having been a server myself for 10 years I think she did an amazing job on all aspects. Drink menu had a variety of options. I had the gummy bear shot and a friend tried both of the Hennessy drinks which were all delicious! Beer options that were actually in stock k were slim when we came, and they were out of a lot of the foods we tried to order as well, so that was a bit disappointing. 3 of us shared what we ordered and we ended up with the swamp fries 4/5, salmon bites 4/5 and the friend shrimp basket 5/5. Food is a bit pricy but the serving size made up for it. The fry/ batter on the shrimp was perfect as was the flavor. I will defiantly be back to try more of the menu!

    Music is was wayyy too loud and the service was just okay could have been more attentive! The food was really good though. Drinks were okay. Hookah was okay

    We wanted to go on a Saturday night and it was ! We're not crowd people anymore , but people looked like they were really enjoying themselves. We do go on Sundays, and all the menu items have been delicious. To me, it's a little pricey but I'm not paying so.... The drinks are good and STRONG!

    The Oakmont has such a great vibe, and I always enjoy the atmosphere, but I do wish they had more veg-friendly options. Since I don't eat eggs or dairy, the menu can feel a bit limiting for me. I recently went for a friend's birthday and ordered a salad, which was tasty, but let's be honest--who really wants a salad for brunch? That said, the vibes are always on point, and the outdoor seating is a nice bonus. Being right off Mass Ave, it's also perfect for a little bar hopping afterward. I just hope they expand their menu to accommodate more plant-based options!

    Food was HORRIBLE!!! Everything got sent back but my Sister big ole sweet potato flavored wings. That I wouldn't dare put in my mouth!!!! I ordered the fried pork chops and they came out burnt and the breading falling off. We all ordered salads which were warm and limp. Even though our food experience wasn't good we decided to stay for the vibe. Our table ordered a hookah and happy hour drinks. Happy hour drinks were watered down. But the after happy hour the drinks were good!!!! We started enjoying ourselves and after spending over $300 on drinks they told us they needed our booth, in which no one was there! We WON'T be back!

We tried to go to happy hour with my partner's parents, but that was only available in the bar area. Given they have some health problems to consider, we could not move over and hover over teeny tables to have dinner so had to handle full price. At full price, I'd give it a solid 3.5. Bumped to a 4 because this is hard to find around here. We got: - shrimp yoli (if you only order one dish, get one with this SAUCE. It's to die for. The shrimp had too much seasoning that it was a little choke worthy and I NEVER complain about flavor. Just lighten up a little!) - escargot (the butter was broken.. so it was kinda rough) -catfish gumbo (solid portion) -redfish add lump crab (while we enjoyed this, it was pricy for what it was) -shrimp and crawfish pasta (good) -orange crème brûlée (light.. not my fav crème brûlée ever but fun to try) - chocolate cake brownie with ice cream

So here we are, Party of 2 arrived at 7:30pm. The restaurant was busy, we put our name on the list and was told it would be a 45 minute wait. We decided to sit at the bar and we were greeted immediately. The bartender is so nice and just always does such a great job. I've been here a few times and she's always been there with a smile, no matter how busy it is. We ordered drinks and a couple appetizers, the coconut shrimp and the buffalo shrimp. Nothing special, just fried shrimp. I also ordered the side of the hush puppies, I always get hush puppies if they're on the menu. They were good,small but good. He ordered the seafood soup, it's a large portion, red broth with lots of seafood and veggies. He liked it! I ordered the Salmon dish. Came with rice and steamed veggies. I couldn't eat it all because the salmon was way too well done and dry. :( Overall, fun and friendly environment!!!

Drink orders came soon after. We ordered a fried oyster po boy (which came with fries) and a 2 Taceaux plate (which came with fries and a 2nd side. I chose fried okra.) We finished it off with an order of beignets. The po boy came with 8 nicely-sized (and, importantly, fresh) oysters and a large portion of seasoned shoestring fries. My 2 blackened shrimp tacos were very tasty. The fries tasted good, but weren't at all crispy. The okra tasted good but was lukewarm. The beignets tasted good but were the consistency of a donut rather than being light and airy. The menu is quite extensive, and we had a tough time choosing what to order. I saw a large bowl of gumbo at an adjacent table, and that almost made me choose gumbo for my entrée. The eating area has a kitchsy decor fitting of the food genre. Seating was comfortable and service was excellent. This was a great experience that made me want to return for dinner next time, maybe during happy hour so I can order one of their great appetizers. We will be back before very long.
