Fries were great too. The peach cobbler was very good-- a ton of fresh fruit. They also have a full coffee bar next door that you order from through your server and your server will bring it to your table. The crab deviled eggs were also good. I like the taste of capers so I really liked them. They are a tad salty if you are watching your sodium. Our server was super friendly and very attentive. Excellent service. The restaurant itself is super cute. I love all the photos on the wall ans the TV screen above the bar that showed different cute messages. This is also 2 min walk from a parking garage on 5th and Brazos if you don't want to deal with parking downtown. Highly recommend!

It was dead in here on a Monday night. But overall still good service…read more One weird thing was I got charged for my food and overall meal at the beginning when I first ordered it. Even choosing a gratuity before being served felt weird. But the chicken pot pie was what brought us in. So we said yes anyway. Mashed pots were cold on arrival. We shared with the server and he brought new ones. Appreciated that. Fried chicken was way too salty. This was our second time here. The first time we loved it. And it was so packed. This time was a different experience. Not saying I won't ever come back. But it just felt different this time. Pot pie was still flaky and delicious.

Regardless of the food or ambiance the server is the face of the establishment. Bad service can easily lead to a bad review. In this case the waitress, when she finally showed up, was not friendly. She was indifferent, like we were bothering her, and had a borderline RUDE attitude. The clincher was her assumption on who was paying the bill. We waited a good ten minutes for her to initially show up. When she got to the table the first thing she asked for was a credit card to cover the drinks we ordered; which I thought was strange since our family was sitting at a table and ordering dinner. After the food was delivered she never returned to check on us. Other servers had to get us refills and were happy to do so. When she finally returned at the end of the meal with the bill , all smiles of course, she had already run the credit card without ever giving us the bill to review??? The card she asked for, for the drinks, was NOT meant to pay the bill. We were going to split the bill but since she already ran the card the cardholder didn't feel comfortable asking her to rerun the card. This was VERY awkward!! None of us have EVER experienced anything like this ever!! I wish I had gotten her name. I'm giving a 2 star review because everyone though the food was good.

After thrifting on Saturday, a friend of mine and I landed at BD Riley's Irish Pub at Mueller. OMG…read moreit was so much fun!!! This place is huge with so much character. Traditional Irish artifacts filled the restaurant / bar. B. D. Riley's was celebrating St. Patrick's Day on Saturday, March 14 with live music, Irish food, Guinness, dancers, bagpipes, etc. No cover charge and many families were present (family friendly times). The excitement and enthusiasm was contagious! You could hear the roar of laughter and the occasional Irish call out. It is rare you can have so much clean fun with no fear of violence. We visited for a couple of hours. Highly recommend BD Riley's.

But that is nothing compared to how awful the food is. Growing up and living in Boston I was accustomed to Irish Pubs that took pride in the food they made. Let's be honest - Irish food in general is not very good but the pubs I went to in Boston elevated the fare. If it is in fact true that BD Riley's is run by someone from Boston then he or she should be ashamed of the food they serve. It's like they have a 10 year old cooking the food. If someone from BD Riley's reads this please read this: Do better. Have some pride.

Batter stays on, fish is fresh and perfectly flaky yet holds together. Fries are perfect and the pecan tartar sauce is bangin! My husband had the burger which was good. Nothing over the top but a good juicy burger, soft bun, with fries. They give you more fries than you, well, I can eat. I first had the Foxy Daiquiri. It is a great twist on the original Hemingway. I also had their frozen Irish coffee "Irish Goodbye". Very good! It's dessert in a glass that you can actually taste the alcohol even with the Ice Cream! Yum!! We sat at the bar and Abby was our bartender. Very friendly and attentive. If I were an Austin local I would come to sit at her bar. Really cool Irish vibe with a Jameson chandelier. Love the old world pub look. Edit to add. Chocolate torte was delicious, rich, wonderful chocolate. We got 2 sides of ice cream too! Definitely worth the extra ice cream with 2 people

Hand waving and nearly jumping out of my seat was not enough to get their attention. Finally, I ordered a burger and a beer. The burger was at least warm with an entirely tasteless bun, tomato, and onion. The fries were remarkably weak such that I questioned whether these calories were even worth it. Had to flag down staff for silverware, condiments, and finally the check. Gets one star for ambience and one for the staff being friendly when I finally got their attention.

Ticked away in a little complex without 79 visibility along with a couple of other places that don't seem to get much traffic either. Finally made our first visit so we could try "the best fish & chips" in the Austin area. I was surprised how big it was, they have a patio, a bar area and lots of tables I was shocked as from the outside it looks tiny. Service was fantastic which was shocking with them closing soon. The service was enough to want me to go back hopefully for us in this area they end up somewhere close by as I know how hard it is to find good workers. Pretzels were good! Onion rings were our favorite! Their version of the Philly was just okay, was very plain with not much flavor hubby didn't even finish half. But the star of the show was the fish and chips. My son was over the moon! Couldn't even finish half of it and he wanted to haha. Sad to see they will be closing their doors but hopefully the owner has something else up his sleeve as they were onto something with this place.

Located off Anderson Mill in the corner of a strip mall is a bookshelf with a door on the right side. If you cannot figure out the entrance, there is a doorbell to ring as well. I believe it is owned by the same people who own The Mill bar right next door, which makes it feel like a cool bonus space. My friend and I sat next to a faux fireplace, where we were greeted by the only bartender working and placed our order. Once he opened the tab, it was disappointing that he never came back to check if we wanted another drink. It wasn't super busy on the Monday we went, but since he was the only one manning the bar, the bartender was always doing something, so I don't blame him fully for not checking back in with us. I ordered a drink called the Velvet Vice. It looked nothing like the picture and tasted similar to an Aviation cocktail with egg whites. I happened to really like it. It is a very relaxed space, but once the speakeasy gimmick wears off, it does not have much else going for it. It is still a cool place, but I am not sure it was worth the lengthy drive to get there.
