Food was average although they had some interesting flavor combinations. I was served cold fries while my friends were hot. We were checked on when our food was sat down, but not after that. I had to request a refill of drip coffee. $10 bottle for build your own mimosa bottle is a win.

Crab salad
Airon A.

Had a reservation for brunch at Fat Rabbit Social House known for its brunch-forward dishes, expertly crafted cocktails, and specialty coffee served in downtown Austin, TX. Was downtown for SXSW and my event ended early so I headed to the restaurant before the reservation time and when I checked in, was given a bit of a hard time about requesting to be seated early even though there were no other customers. When the other party arrived, we were greeted promptly and received friendly service. The atmosphere is cute and has a fun brunch vibe, but unfortunately the food didn't match the setting. We tried to order mimosas with our meal but were informed we could not because it was too early on a Sunday. Started the meal with the Biscuit Basket that included 4 house-made biscuits served with fresh seasonal jam and whipped butter. The biscuits were served warm and very tasty with blackberry preserves that was so incredibly flavorful and hit the spot. I ended up ordering the Citrus and Crab Salad with Lump crab, avocado, pepitas, Texas ruby red grapefruit, fennel, romaine, and peppercorn citrus vinegarette for my brunch entree and I was not impressed at all. The price point was very high for the portion size and quality and the crab seemed frozen. The salad just fell flat as the ingredients did not deliver on flavor. Overall, I really wanted to like this place, but based on this visit, it didn't deliver. Hoping it was just an off day, but no plans to return.

Receipt showing 2 Açaí Bowls. We only ordered 1.

Just returned home after ordering breakfast and receipt shows I was double charged for 1 of the dishes ordered. Called listed phone number 3xs but no answer. So disappointing.

Patio Area

A "little hidden gem" located in the heart of downtown Austin! This is a breakfast/brunch/lunch spot that serves American cuisine. I went on a Friday morning around 9 AM and it wasn't that busy but I do think they get a crowd early morning and lunch as they are located inside another building. There are limited spots (free) directly in front of restaurant and also a parking garage located next to. The service provided was very attentive. We ordered French toast which was phenomenal and the chicken and waffles were delicious. I would recommend coming here with a friend or two or even solo as it's very lowkey. Not too big and the decor is very festive! The patio seating was nice but it was too cold to sit out.

This place is adorable--warm wood, playful art, cozy seating, and a vibe that invites you to stay awhile. The ambience absolutely does its job. Add to that a spotless bathroom (and yes, that always matters), and you start off feeling hopeful. Now... the food is where things became a little hit-or-miss. Fried Goat Cheese Balls ($12) These were the standout. Fried perfectly crisp, and the lavender goat cheese paired with clover honey and cracked black pepper worked beautifully. I'd order these again without question. Shrimp & Grits ($18) This one missed the mark for me. I'm from the South, so shrimp and grits is near and dear to my heart. While the shrimp were cooked well, the cheesy poblano grits and house creole sauce just didn't deliver that creamy, comforting, creole-style flavor I was craving. It leaned more modern than soulful. Not terrible--just not what I hoped for. Chicken & Waffles ($14) This was enjoyed at the table, especially the light, crispy waffle. The chicken thighs were good, though I felt they could've been cooked just a bit less for my preference. Still a decent dish, just not memorable for me but my granddaughter enjoyed them. Drinks The Aperol Spritz ($12) was well made and refreshing--honestly did some heavy lifting here. The Lavender Chai ($9) was smooth, lightly floral, and comforting. A nice choice if you enjoy subtle lavender notes. Service Carson was attentive, pleasant, professional, and genuinely funny--great service always counts, and he did a wonderful job. Final thoughts: The atmosphere and service are strong, and there are a couple of solid menu wins, but overall the food didn't quite rise to the occasion for me. I wanted more flavor and more "wow," especially for the price point. I might return for drinks and appetizers, but based on this visit, three stars feels fair.

So I didn't know this place was inside a hotel. It is small. They have an inside outside but very cute. When you arrive, the hosts was super nice and even greeted my little puppy and was in love with him. I thought since I had them, they'd see us outside, but they let us sit inside with him, which was so nice of them. Our waiter he was so nice and you went to recommend and very sweet to my little dog as well. Me and my friend both got the pork belly eggs Benny and I have to say they were good but they were missing a little flavor to them. I have to say the french fries were so darn good. I could literally go back and just eat that. I definitely wanna go back and try the rest of their food because the people next to got one of the breakfast sandwiches that I was ironing and it looked phenomenal. Their April spirits I ended up having two of them because they were so good. I know you're probably thinking. How can you mess up an app Raul spirits but some people actually can, and this place knew how to measure everything out correctly in it. Overall, definitely gonna go back here really cute vibe brunch spot.

I would first like to say that the service here was excellent. The restaurant was very cute. The outside set up is perfect for a beautiful sunny day. Me and my girlfriend just wanted to have a nice little brunch snack so we ordered the chicken and waffle as well as a hot chai latte. That waffle was absolutely amazing. It was very light and fluffy but still full of flavor. The chicken was fried to perfection and I like that they use chicken thighs so that it was not dry. The chai latte was delicious very smooth but with a little spice, we also got a side of bacon and the bacon was your standard bacon cooked very well. I would 100% return to this restaurant the next time I visit Austin.

Iced mocha
Kim H.

Open for breakfast and lunch. They do have a parking garage below them it's $7 for every 30 min and a small parking lot right out front. They have a nice shaded patio and indoor seating Hot or iced coffee drinks. I got an iced mocha and it was bland Starbucks makes a better one Portions on the food was decent for the price. The açaí bowl was nice and sweet. We ordered it as an appetizer but it came out with our food and worked perfectly for a dessert, the potato's with the bendedict was the right amount of salt and crunch, the brunch burrito had a protein option and pretty filling, the crab citrus salad was nice, light, and refreshing but could use some cheese. Overall I would come back if I could park in their lot and not the garage.

American Breakfast: Over-Medium Eggs Bacon
Colin R.

The environment was pretty cool! The first time I've seen an outdoor patio where there were bugs attacking me. The food was also good as well, not sure if I'm crazy but I've never seen jelly that spreads smoothly but this is it! I got the biscuit basket and the American breakfast with over-medium, and bacon. Bacon was good and the eggs were perfectly runny for over-medium in my opinion. Biscuits are super crumbly and fluffy but kind of dry without butter and jelly. And my girlfriend got the Açaí bowl, she says she enjoyed it so A+ there. Prices are reasonable and the staff was nice.

This is the cutest brunch place ever! We went here for my sister's bachelorette trip and it was perfect. The decor of the place is very garden tea party like and Alice in Wonderland. We got mimosas for the table and they had a variety of juices to choose from. My goat cheese truffle sandwich was so amazing! I wish I got a picture of it but that's how good it was. I added an egg on it. All the staff were extremely nice and efficient in their service.

Out of towner here! Booked a reservations a few weeks before my vacation and I'm glad I did. This place gets busy! Service was great. Very tiny place, outside patio seems a bit bigger. Was raining that day and snagged an inside table luckily. Food was delicious and the $10 mimosa deal...wow!

We were able to have a conversation without feeling like others were listening. The music is very different than the vibe of the actual area. They were playing different rap & hip-hop artists. It was loud, but I enjoyed it. It felt very Austin-y. Loved the drinks. There was one that had something to do with Bob's Lake, or something like that. That drink was absolutely delicious. We also got the caviar service, and I really enjoyed that. Was not crazy about the blinis, I believe they were made with black corn flour. The crème fraîche was very nice. Very nice night out.

Very very comfortable lounge seating, plush velvet and other soft textiles with leatherette coasters. Very elevated and calm. Music is perfect but kinda loud so conversation is a bit of a struggle. It is very very very dark in there so it's super intimate and features candles and mini tap light lamps. If you have sight or mobility issues, you may not like this venue from a safety standpoint. Steep incline stairs lead down to this dungeon like hold. I would return in a heartbeat. Must have the password. Exclusive and decadent is the mood. So if it matches you, you have to visit!

Powder Room is a speakeasy lounge tucked behind the "kitchen doors" of Manny's Sandwich Shop, and…read moreit did not disappoint! We came on a Thursday evening with a reservation for 7. Once we walked through Manny's, we were greeted right away and since we had a reservation, we were seated promptly. Quick heads up: cell phones aren't allowed inside -- they take your phone and give you a key to a locker where it's stored for the night. The idea is to keep everyone present and engaged with each other instead of their screens (they do make exceptions for emergencies or on-call situations, at the business's discretion). I actually love the reasoning behind it, even though I wished I had my phone to snap pictures of the inside! The space itself is dark and moody with major art deco Miami vibes, like something out of the 80s-90s. Think pink velvet draped everywhere, a life-size taxidermy leopard in the middle of the bar, and flamingo sculptures scattered throughout. It's gorgeous. There's plenty of seating between the booths/couches and the bar, and they seat you according to your party size. We got a plush half-circle booth with a table that fit all of us perfectly -- great sightlines too, so everyone could see and talk to each other easily. Each table gets an assigned server, and ours was fantastic. We ordered cocktails along with the yuca fries, empanadas, and quesadillas -- all delicious. I can't remember the name of my cocktail, but it was pink, gin-based, and so good, served in a beautiful tall stem glass. Loved everything about this place and will absolutely be back next time I'm in town!

I have never experienced such an insane welcome in my life. I made a reservation for 1:30am. Now, I…read moreknow that is late, but if it's too late for a reservation, you should not make it available for scheduling. The guy at the front was very nice, but as soon as we get to the "receptionist" the entire narrative changed. She looked my girlfriend and I up and down and then proceeded to tap multiple times on her IPad. She then says, "you know it's 1:30? we close at 2. we only have standing room." She had the most miserable scowl on her face. My girlfriend and I were dressed very nicely (pants & jacket, and a dress), so I know this was not a outfit issue. I do not know what her issue was, but if you are tired and don't like staying up late, don't work in a bar. After saying that there was only standing room, I decided that I was not going to spend money in an establishment that speaks to people in such a disgusting way, so I proceeded to leave. One of the guys out front asked what was wrong and asked if he could buy us a drink, but at that point I decided that I would not spend a dime at this place. Just giving a heads up! Lady at the front is EXTREMELY rude. Looking at the other 1 star reviews, it looks like this place has a reputation for being discriminatory.

There is a parking lot that you can get validation for 2 hrs free, but after that you will be charged. Overall though, it's totally worth a visit! The bartenders are really friendly, the bathrooms are immaculate, and the inside of the place is really cute -- think kinda pink vintage? There are some tables, and big comfy couches around a coffee table in the middle of the bar which is where we sat. I had one of their happy hour cocktails that was similar to a creamy espresso martini, and they are 50% off on happy hour days/times! My friend got one of their floral cocktails which wasn't discounted but I LOVED it personally. I also got a strawberry matcha drink (non alcoholic) that was a little too sweet in my opinion; I finished it but wouldn't get it again. Overall though the cocktails and vibe in there are worth a visit alone! When it's not too hot, the area outside has little mini-chandeliers and is also very vibey.
