When we stayed in downtown Austin, we were walking around and came across this place, which had great reviews so we decided to go in for a bite to eat and I'm so happy we did. The service was amazing and this Wagyu burger was one of the best as well as the really good onion rings great atmosphere wide open great place to sit down and people watch.

Burger
Michael S.

This is a fun spot! Right dt off 6th street. We met up here for dinner before we went to the mothership. And it was awesome. The burger was amazing. I'd definitely go back for it. We had a party of 7 and they didn't miss a beat on our service. Great experience!

Fried pickles and the wygu burger was awesome. The old fashions were delicious. Service by the bartenders was great always made sure we were taken care

Fish and Chips
Madisyn F.

We parked a few blocks away and walked down to Sixth Street, which was a nice area to be in. From the moment we walked in we were greeted warmly and seated immediately. Our server made sure to let us know happy hour was going on, which was nice. The drinks were a good start. I had a really nice margarita and my mom ordered the sweet tea, which she enjoyed. For food, I ordered the brussels sprouts off the happy hour menu and thought they were good. For entree's My mom got one of their burgers and I ordered the fish and chips. My mom really enjoyed her burger. As for me, the first piece of my fish was fine. When I went back to eat the rest I realized the fish was actually undercooked, which was pretty disappointing. What I will say is that the manager handled it really well. She came over, removed it from my bill, and brought me another round of margaritas. That kind of service recovery goes a long way and I appreciated it. Overall the ambiance was nice, the drinks were good, and most of the food hit the mark. The fish and chips were a miss but the way the staff handled it made up for it. I would give Eureka another shot.

Some good drinks here
Shannon G.

Wow, it's been such a long time since I've been to Eureka. I was downtown a little early for an event. So I popped in to Eureka to kill some time. Just grabbed a cocktail real quick. The cocktail was called Wild Child. A little vodka, watermelon, and a spicy rim. Wicked good. The watermelon flavor was refreshing, and with that habanero spice rim really complimented the sweet. Bravo. Delicious!

Hoppy Hour Menu as of 04.08.2025

Overall: 3.4/5 We came back on two separate occasions (dine in and take out), and the food wasn't as good as the first time we dined here. Farmers' Market Cocktail ($15.50): Our waitress recommended this gingerbread cocktail, but it fell short of expectations. The gingerbread flavor was barely detectable, though they did serve it with an ice cube shaped like a gingerbread man. Wagyu Bone Marrow Burger ($23) + Beer Battered Onion Rings ($3): A medium rare beef patty with bone marrow shiitake butter, grilled onions, horseradish mustard aioli, and roasted tomatoes. Unfortunately, the patty was dry and lacked juiciness, and the bone marrow shiitake butter flavor didn't come through. The burger as a whole was surprisingly bland. I'm not even convinced the tomatoes and grilled onions made it in, as it tasted like a bare bones, basic burger. The onion rings were decent and crispy. Double Smash Burger ($20.75) + Sweet Potato Fries ($3): Garlic dijonnaise, red onions, dill pickles, and American Swiss cheese. This was an improvement over the Wagyu Bone Marrow Burger, with noticeably more flavor, though I wished it came with lettuce and tomatoes. The sweet potato fries would have benefited from being air fried, as they would taste better crisped. Lettuce Wrap ($18.25): You can choose between chicken or tofu, and we went with chicken. The gochujang based sauce gave it a great flavor that we really enjoyed. That said, some of the lettuce had blackened edges and one piece had a bug on it. They really need to wash and inspect the lettuce more thoroughly. Crispy Glazed Brussels Sprouts ($12): The orange chili glaze and chimichurri created an amazing flavor profile. However, the Brussels sprouts were anything but crispy despite being air fried, which is probably because they were extremely oily. Purple Haze ($6): An interesting and enjoyable drink.

Fish tacos with sweet potato fries
Ivy B.

Here for a trip! This is a chain restaurant but the $13 lunch drew us in! Not busy and super quick service! Food was good for the price. Sweet potato fries weren't cooked how I like them but that is preference! Overall good experience for quick lunch!

Truffle Cheese Fries
Jennifer V.

It's been years since I've been to a Eureka (in Berkeley) but I decided to check out their happy hour after checking out the Ariana grande pop up. The fish and shrimp tacos ($4 each), brussel sprouts ($7), and truffle fries ($4) were all delicious and prepared quickly!! No notes! Portions for the brussel sprouts and truffle fries were great. Lots of seating, including at the bar with many TVs.

Eureka! Burger (no bun, I can't for my figure lol), and sweet potato fries w/no honey.

Amazing! This location is similar to one near I grew up! Same feel, same food and great staff! Food is consistent from the original location we came from and the staff here is just as great!!! Thank you Eureka! for everything and being where we wanna eat! The food is hands down always fantastic =D

Great place - every dish was very well prepared - but the best part of the meal was the cheese cake! WOW that was amazing! Service was good and provided good recommendations - a must try while in town.

Green goddess burger with veggie patty
McKinley H.

My friends and I came here late on a Sunday night after watching the bats at Congress Bridge. It is not a far walk and it looked pretty popular compared to other restaurants we had passed while exploring the city. The hostess greeted us warmly and we were quickly seated. Our server was lots of fun and patient with us as we took our time determining drinks and meals. We started with their nachos appetizer to split, which was really good. The chips were evenly covered with toppings, and it was just enough to get us through until our meals. My friend and I split their special burger that day, which was a green goddess burger and swapped the regular patty for a veggie patty. It was great! The veggie patty reminded me a lot of falafel, which is one of my favorite foods, and it went really well with their green goddess dressing and other toppings. We also both got their sweet potato fries as a side. They come with a spicy aoli that went very well with them. The rest of the group got the same burger, the Bone Marrow, which was a mix of regular beef and waygu. Everyone said it was probably one of the best burgers they've ever had in their lives! The vibes of this place were great, the staff was great, and the food was the greatest part of all. When we come back to Austin, this place will for use be on our list to stop at again!

Wings
Eddie C.

Eureka! - Downtown Austin Austin is known for BBQ, but sometimes you pivot... and sometimes that pivot turns into one of the most satisfying meals of the trip. Eureka! absolutely delivered. I kept it simple: Caesar salad, dry rub wings, fries, and a bold 12% stout. The kind of order that sounds casual but hits like comfort food perfection. The wings were crispy with just the right smoky-spice kick, the fries disappeared embarrassingly fast, and the stout was smooth, rich, and strong enough to make you slow down and savor it. And then dessert showed up and stole the whole show. Bourbon barrel cake with ice cream. Warm, buttery, slightly boozy, with that cold ice cream melting into every bite... one of those "okay this is dangerous" desserts you keep eating long after you're full. Easily the MVP of the night. Great vibe, relaxed energy, solid service, and food that punches way above "bar food" expectations. Not BBQ, but honestly? Didn't miss it for a second.

Dry rub wings
Mistyday H.

I loved the "hoppy hour" yes you read correct! The happy hour has some really amazing drinks cocktail features & light bites. The dry rub wings with a side of buffalo & blue cheese dressing over ranch was perfection!. The truffle fries are great! The Ceasar salad is a great side. I really like the shrimp tacos. The grilled fish taco needed some seasoning or salt or pepper. I squeezed some limes on top & that did the trick for the fish. My server was great! The only con was the street parking & lack there of. You may have to park & walk. Hence why the happy hour deals & available street parking near!

Is there gluten free options?

The burgers can be wrapped in lettuce wraps, if that helps at all!

Menu with prices?

this place is a bit more elevated on menu and prices than the other places around, however it is also a more elevated quality and the prices are not super terrible. but don`t expect cheap eats here.

Amazing Food, Incredible Drinks & Fantastic Service!…read more What an absolutely fabulous experience at Moonshine Grill in Austin! From the food to the drinks to the service, everything was fantastic! Jessica took great care of us and made our visit even more enjoyable. The ambiance was also really nice, with cute rocking chairs out front and lots of mirrors all over the walls. We had the grilled cheese sandwich with burnt ends, and WOW! The combination of the amazing onions and gooey, delicious cheese was out of this world! We also ordered the sweet potatoes, and I cannot say enough about how good they were! Perfectly sweet and absolutely delicious. Seriously, SO SO good! And the drinks? The lavender lemonade was AMAZING! Refreshing, delicious, and the perfect complement to an already fabulous meal!

We somehow snagged nearby street parking and a table for two with no wait despite it being a busy Saturday evening after a UT football game. Make a reservation if you have a large party or are on a tighter schedule. It's a bit loud for those seated in the lobby/entrance area, but totes a vibe. For food, we ordered the blackened catfish, brisket burnt ends quesadillas, and harvest bowl to share. Everything was delicious and served quickly, even with the aforementioned dinner rush. 10/10 would order the same items again. I was so appreciative of the server splitting the entree over two plates without us asking. Did I mention the complimentary popcorn and cornbread? Twas a FEAST. I'm already thinking about the next time we're going back! If not for Moonshine, definitely for the speakeasy downstairs.

We were the ones in the wrong, and Josh and his team had every reason to handle the situation differently. Instead, they treated us with kindness, respect, and genuine hospitality.

We were sat outside in this beautiful oasis. I didn't even remember I was in Austin, I thought I was in Greece throughout my meal. There were so many different types of seating, an outdoor bar and the whole outdoor area was covered in plant and trees and lights! The outside set up was jaw dropping beautiful. I couldn't believe we didn't get too hot and how beautiful everything outside was. This is a Mediterranean place, so the menu was very heavy on that. I love this kind of food, so I found plenty of option that I would like. To start, as a table, we split the hummus, feta dip and roasted pork belly bites. The whipped feta dip was the best that I have ever had. It came with plenty of pita bread, cucumbers and carrots. It wasn't enough for all of us to eat how much we wanted lol, but we all did try some of it. All of the appetizers were very fresh and light tasting. They came out in a decent amount of time too. For my entree, I got the grilled chicken kabob. After all of the appetizers I had, I wasn't even hungry for dinner, but I did manage to eat some of it. It was a pretty simple but delicious tasting kabob. It was one skewer with half a plate of basmati rice. Idk if it would have filled me up if I didn't have some appetizers, but it certainly was delicious. The service was spot on. The waitress took her time other us and kept checking in to see if we needed anything. Whenever I am back in town, this will be my first stop!!

Short rib shakshuka (2/5) Everything is so fresh and it was so hard getting a reservation and now I know why. I would order everything again except the shakshuka. The shakshuka lacked flavor, which was odd since everything else was super flavorful. The short rib was a little tough and the poached egg still had runny whites we subbed out the potatoes in the shawarma skirt steak for brussel sprouts, which was totally worth it. I would love to come back for dinner and try their fish. Service was 5/5. Our waitress was super friendly and checked up on us. The food runners were very prompt. All the starters and mezze came out pretty fast so we always had food. I love how they give unlimited pita and their pita is so good! Having been to Ema, we wanted to try Aba which has been in Austin longer. It was harder to get a reservation at Aba. The parking situation is a bummer at Aba though, which is why I gave it 4/5. The parking garage next door is $35. I think you can get $3 off from Aba. We parked somewhere else, which was also a bit pricey and a hassle. You're lucky if you can find street parking. Being a native Austinite, I both love and dislike how Austin has exploded. I wish the parking garage would work something out with Aba. Perla's, before it burned down, validated parking for 2hrs down the street. Too bad you can't get that here. Final verdict is that it's worth the hassle to park to eat here but I probably won't come as often because parking is a friction point. Aba is not hurting for my business though as it was already very busy when we arrived.

Why 5 stars? Because I can't think of a better meal I've had in 2026…read more --- --- --- I just cannot believe how good Odd Duck was. I had my eye on trying it during our trip to Austin, but I just couldn't get in on a reservation that I wanted, so I figured it wasn't going to happen. A few days before my trip, my wife sprinted into my office to show me that she just happened to look, and a 6:30 reservation had opened up on the night we could go. Little did I know that this was a moment that would change my life forever. First off, we had a great server (Matt). And the vibes on the patio were awesome in late October when the weather was so pleasant. The lighting with the city as the backdrop wasn't too bad either. But as for the food: 1. Pickles: 5-stars. It's something so simple. Pickled vegetables. But somehow, they just do this better than everyone else. It's amazing. At $8, it's the cheapest thing on the menu and a no-brainer to order. 2. Cornbread: 5-stars. Warning: this will ruin all other cornbread for you for the rest of your life, so know this going in. It's perfect. When you imagine a great cornbread, it's this. But up a level or two from what you previously thought possible. 3. Braised goat rotolo: 4-stars. The only thing that I was not head over heels in love with. I still enjoyed it, but I just have something in my DNA that does not allow me to enjoy gamey meat. This goat meat was not repulsive in the way goat cheese is to me, but it had a hint of it, and I truly find goat cheese to be the grossest edible substance on Earth. If you're like me, I'd skip this one. Even though, again, it was still enjoyable overall. 4. Burger: 10-stars. Top 2 burger I've had in my life. If you see this burger priced at $39 and think that's crazy, let me just caution you to check yourself. This is not even a burger. It's like a Wagyu Japanese steak with a bun and cheese. First of all, it's almost as tall as an iPhone (we measured). The meat is so ridiculously tender, it'll make you wonder if it's legal. Serve this in the Middle East and tell me there won't be peace by the end of dinner. I just don't know how it's possible for this burger to be so amazing, but I lived it and I'm here to tell you that if you've lost your mind if you don't come here and try it as soon as you read this review. 5. Chocolate peanut butter pie: 5-stars. I saw another table order this and I thought: it's pretty small and it looks like a pretty standard slice of pie. I'll order it, but my expectations aren't sky high. Whoops. Set your expectations high: Odd Duck is just as exceptional at desserts as they are the savory stuff. Like the cornbread and the burger, I have no clue how they made this taste so good and why everyone else pales in comparison. 6. Golden vanilla ice cream: 4-stars +1. They brought this out because we were celebrating our anniversary. We both enjoyed it but it was overshadowed by the chocolate peanut butter pie. However, the gesture bumps it up to 5. Just a top notch experience start to finish. And it was around $125 before tip, which was significantly less than we've paid for many (much worse) celebratory meals like anniversaries and birthdays. It will be hard for me to ever come back to Austin without coming to Odd Duck.

We were able to hit the happy hour, which includes limited foods and drinks, and decided to try a sampler of most of the foods - deviled egg chalupa, green salad (not your typical boring one!), pork sliders, pickles, and the cornbread - OH the cornbread! We ordered seconds on the salad and cornbread, and folks who eat meat (not me) each ordered a slider (slightly bigger than what we thought they would be - one was enough with everything else). Our server was attentive without being intrusive, and gave us great service (Miles, maybe?) Bottles under $100 were 25% off during HH, so we opted for the bottle of Cava to toast the birthday girl, then tried various cocktails and beers - all were tasty and refreshing, with interesting flavors. The setting is rustic, and there was plenty of room on the table for sharing - it got busier as the day went on, but we never felt crowded or noticed that we had to raise our voices. bonus (which we did not know about) - they have free valet! (we parked on the streets nearby).

Those mushroom fritters are absolutely off the charts and we get it every single time we go. That whitefish crudo is also literally something I dream about all the time.

Were were going to go to First Thursday on Rainey Street but it was raining too hard so she found this other option and I'm glad she did. About 7 of us went to check it out and had a great time. They were handing out free food samples of oysters, fish cakes, chicken balls, and cake as well as $5 mini martinis. It was a fun pre-ACL vibe and they had music playing in different areas of the restaurant. I didn't know they had a very back room bar or an upstairs area before that night and I've been to Eberly several times since they opened I guess 10 years ago! Our waitress was great and despite the chaos and it being packed, we could usually find her and get our order in and our food/drinks in a reasonable amount of time. They also offered complimentary valet parking for the event, but of course we tipped. They had umbrellas for us to use walking from valet to the entrance, which was a nice touch as it was raining off and on that evening. Kudos to them for pulling off a fun and packed event despite the rain last week!

Healthy food, coffee and cocktails. Balanced selection of salads, sandwiches and entrees. I tried…read morethe chicken Caesar salad with grilled chicken instead of fried. The dressing was very good and tasted homemade. It was also not as thick as other dressings that aren't spreadable. My boyfriend tried the ancho chicken bowl, which was a very generous portion, perfectly seasoned. He actually had enough food to take some leftover. We did try a piece of pecan pie, but my boyfriend said the crust was nonexistent. I felt the flavor was good but agree the crust could be flaky. Friendly counter service and plenty of seating.

My husband and I love the Mueller location, so we decided to try this one for a change. The menu is…read morethe same, and I imagine the quality of most dishes is usually comparable. We typically enjoy ordering the skillet, but unfortunately, we had a very strange experience during this visit. Even though we were the only customers there, it took around 20 minutes for our food to come out. When it finally arrived, the skillet was completely cold to the touch, and every bite was room temperature. We were genuinely confused, and it was one of the few times we felt the need to send a dish back. Because of that experience, we likely would not return to this particular location, especially when we've had consistently better visits at the Mueller one.

My husband and I were in the area and decided to stop in for lunch, and I am so glad we did. I…read morehadn't been back since 2021, so it felt like the perfect time to give them another try. The happy hour menu offered a great variety, and we enjoyed the she-crab roll, jalapeño hush puppies, salmon with chimichurri, blistered green beans and several Peach Mezcalitas. Everything was delicious, but what truly made the experience stand out was the service we received from Levi. Levi was attentive, personable, and professional throughout our visit. He was a welcome refresher from my first experience here, and his excellent service did not go unnoticed. We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch and will definitely be back.

There…read morehave been quite a few restaurants in Austin offering great weekday steak frites specials lately, so I was excited to try this one. Unfortunately, the steak missed the mark for me. I ordered it medium rare, but it came out closer to medium-well. The meat also had a bit of a funk to it, which made it seem like it may not have been the freshest cut. The fries were also underwhelming--poorly seasoned and pretty forgettable. Based on this experience, I probably wouldn't come back for the steak frites or another steak/meat entrée. That said, the restaurant itself is beautiful and very vibey, and I could see it being a great spot to grab a cocktail on the patio.
