Decided to give Hard Count a try after 2 years...Tuesday 6:00pm, 3/4 full. Started out shaky... 5 minutes after seated no sign of a server. Wife complained and the manager, Jeanette, came and took our drink orders. Still no server...Not to worry, Jeanette became our server and was great. They were short staffed. Food was great and appreciated the great service. read more

We went for Mother's Day Sunday buffet. There was more than an hour wait. We did not make reservations and the place highly encourages one. We needed a table outside and not all tables have an umbrella. Today was an exceptionally hot day and no one would just sit comfortably in the sun. The servers were super sweet and friendly. Most of them came and pet our mini poodle. They also bought water off the dog when asked. The biggest was quite eclectic. There were cookies and round rock donuts, then there were fruits and 2 types of pastas and broccoli with cranberry . (Cold) friend fish, fried chicken, seasonal veggies, mash potatoes, baked mac and cheese. Lots of meat options I didn't check. Over all the place was bustling. The food was okay. Drink was okay. The buffet comes with pancakes or waffles. We were told for pancakes you have option of plain, blueberry or chocolate chip. I ordered chocolate chip and then found a charge of $1.50 for that on the bill. Would like to not have been offered that or be told there was a charge. Then they charged us for 4 adult buffets and that we got fixed because we had 2 kids under 12 with us. read more

The Monte Cristo was good with the sauce. Spicy ketchup is also really good. Want to come back with my husband so he can try the Reuben. I think they recently updated their menus. Was dissatisfied at a previous to-go pick-up of their peach cobbler because it was just puree which I found disgusting. read more

The menu with fried pork chop, chicken picatta and more is dated. Was disappointed with the new menu not being posted. Service, hostess was good, gave good suggestions. Waitress... very disappointed in her. Asked if the food came out ok? As she was walking ( couldn't even stop to ask) but NEVER ONCE ASKED WOULD YOU LIKE ANYTHING ELSE. I ordered an appetizer, of course I wanna order a meal but I didn't even bother. Clearly she rather not be of assistance. Go to Scratch Kitchen better Services. Food was just ok, ranch was bland, but the chicken tenders was nice, hot, juicy n tender! Cooked too perfection! read more

No wait time. We were seated right away. The ambiance was inviting with nice decor. Plenty of TV's. Our sever Paulina was fantastic, with plenty of personality plus. She is the true definition of Customer Service. She was always checking in on us to make sure that we were okay. She gave excellent suggestions. We ordered Just Winging it Lemon Pepper Wings with Blue Cheese dipping sauce and Salmon Street Tacos. Oh my goodness the food was exceptional, it was served her hot and flavorful. Just delicious. Hats off to the cooks. We will be back when we're in town. read more

Came here for a conference across the street. Always has great drinks and the food was AMAZING! Perfect sandwich to pair with an espresso martini or two.

Service was exceptional, food good, drinks stiff. Both adult and family oriented. I was expecting more sports bar but that area was smaller than expected. Then you have the larger family seating area. All with TVs near. Was seated in the family area but world have preferred the bar area but as mentioned that was small area. It was date night and not feeling the family side but all in all good place to visit read more

Staying a nearby Sheraton, which is a GREAT hotel!! We split an appetizer of carne asada street tacos...very good. Then we split the Texas BBQ burger. Cooked perfectly and plenty of bacon!! Jesse is a good server. read more

First visit to this restaurant. Parking very limited unless you use valet or hotel garage a block away. Area was largely unoccupied and 3 of 4 nearby restaurants in the same vacinity were closed. Seated near the back of the restaurant with a few other diners nearby. Server Hannah took our drink orders soon after seating but took awhile to receive our drinks which were water and an unsweetened iced tea. Food order taken by her thereafter was challenging when questions about sides arose. Took almost 30 minutes for a salad and 3 sandwiches to arrive and restaurant wasn't crowded. Different person delivered food. Salad was a taco salad but had a white creamy dressing on it - tasteless - and field greens on a taco salad - huh? . A tiny bit of cheese, 3 slices of avocado and small cubes of chicken - skip it. Reuben was ok - ample meat and toppings. Should have been sweet potato fries instead of waffle fries and asked for a correction. We were finished eating when the sweet potato fries arrived by a third person. At least they were reasonably warm. Monte cristo was very well done and other sandwich was more bread than fillings. No other options other than fries w sandwiches. Took a very long time to get a to go box (for the dog) and the bill. Service was terrible and mediocre food. Mid range price for bar food - $20/pp. Peach cobbler was tasteless canned peaches in a sauce with ice cream. Thought it was apples- skip this too. Not sure if it was just a server issue or kitchen problem. TVs all around with the same game on them. Bar had maybe 2 people. Very understandable that there weren't more diners. read more

I frequent the Sunday brunch often rotating guests .. introducing new people to the establishment .. my bf is a restaurant owner himself has made simple request and eaxh time the same lady rejects them .. first request no bacon on a turkey club sandwich she said that wasn't possible secondly he asked for a as pitcher of water only because he drinks a gallon daily faithfully and she refused to allow the server to bring a pitcher .. the server came back and stated that she was not allowed to leave a pitcher (no reason provided ) she then said I will be back often to replenish for you though but did not really do that . I think she (manager) doesn't care for a particular type of people . She never offers an explanation just no bc I can read more

Service was great. Went there for lunch with a client. Great experience. The menu had plenty to choose from I will be going back

Fun bar, food is good, bartenders and servers are wonderful! I love coming here to just relax and have a good time. The outdoor seating is great too! read more

Avoid unless you like tasteless food. A vegetarian in TX never a good combo I guess. Selected this place next to my hotel for the beyond burger and guac. Guac is tasteless mush no seasoning and chips just ok and overly salted. When I went to order the beyond burger they said they don't have it anymore just haven't taken it off the menu. When I asked about other vegetarian options I was told I could either order a salad and remove the protein or they will make veggie enchiladas. I ordered the enchiladas and they were horrible with no flavor or seasoning. I did not any of my food or my Paloma mule which was all mix and not enjoyable. I would avoid this place if you want flavor and especially if you are a vegetarian. read more

Service always top notch and food is served quickly even when crowded. Been approximately 6 times and each time food was good- fresh, generous portions and HH is great and DAILY 3-6 with 1/2 price all appetizers. One thing to note is menu changes fairly often so go online and check the current menu because something you may have had there six months ago may not be currently offered. read more

This was the first restaurant I tried after checking into my hotel across the street. The restaurant was packed, they have outdoor seating and it's a great place to sit and have a few drinks. There's an outdoor bar, fire pit, and cornhole. If I wasn't so tired, I would've sat outside and relaxed. I got mama's fried chicken, fried pickles, and peach cobbler. I was tired so I order the food to go. I would bathe in the gravy that smothered the chicken if I could. It was the best meal I've had in a long time and this place set the bar high. The entire plate was gone within 5 minutes. The cobbler was divine and tasted homemade. The fried pickles were normal fried pickles that you would get anywhere. This meal put me to sleep like a baby and I can't wait to come back to town to eat here again read more

I was not really impressed with this restaurant. We were a large party of 10. The server was nice. All of our drinks came out, kind of slow and a different times and at different times. The food dishes came out about the same time. Those in our party who ordered the salmon really enjoyed it. I ordered the Ruben. it was not very impressive. It came with fries that were sparsely scattered on the plate. The cranberry Rita was a seasonal drink. It came in a martini glass. The drink itself was tart, and there was a sugar rim on the glass. read more

Best food, but expensive for the small portions compared to many others. The parking situation is terrible. read more

One of the few places still open past 10pm in this area, we decided to check it out since it was right next to our hotel. It wasn't very busy on a Sat night but it's most likely due to the holidays. Our bartender was super nice, gave a great suggestion on what we should order and it ended up being the best late night layered nachos we've ever had. It's served as an appetizer but with the amount of shredded chicken and beans squeezed between each layer of chips and cheese, it felt more like an entree. Definitely would come back just for the nachos. read more

Hard Count Kitchen & Cocktails Don't "count" this spot out!!!! My sister and I went for lunch yesterday. We sat outside. It's a great spot to people watch and is in the main concourse of the area that has games and a green space for families to enjoy. We had one of THE BEST waitresses that you can ask for! Her name (I believe) was Haley (sp?)! We ordered the fried mushrooms with ranch, Chicken Picatta and, the New York Reuben. The mushrooms were unbelievable!!!!! There is a light and crispy breading that doesn't take away from the mushroom flavor. I'll post a pic, but we had already started digging in. The Chicken Piccata was better than I could get at an authentic Italian spot. The chicken was moist, lightly breaded, and juicy. The sauce was light and flavorful and, the pasta was perfectly al dente. My sister ordered the Reuben and it was fantastic! The only unfortunate part was that the sauerkraut was missing from the sandwich. We didn't complain as it was still wonderful!!!! This was one of our top ten places to have a nice Saturday lunch. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!!!!! 9.5 due to no sauerkraut. Other than that, this place is the BOMB!!!!! -- with Jen Karney Michna. read more

Came here for the reviews but I am not really satisfied. We did have some requests that were not followed which delayed our order. 2 of the 3 times we order weren't upto the mark. The Mushroom appetizer was top class. Again this could be our day as well. But the Place and location are must try read more

Food is mediocre and overpriced. Manager is rude and doesn't appreciate repeat business.

Tried this place based on reviews and it was just as good as expected. Great service, very good food, convenient valet, and this is one of the cleanest restaurants I've been to. read more

This is my first time trying this restaurant as I walked in I got greeted from the hostess and we sat down in a booth. The server greeted us right as we sat down. I will say this place has excellent service. The ambience was really nice not a lot of people, so it wasn't loud and you could really enjoy a meal. I really hate leaving three star reviews, but my favorite part is always going to be the food when it comes to Yelp and I honestly felt like the food was horrible quality. I was disappointed in my meal sadly. But I will say the cocktails are really good! Cocktail: Dessert pear transfusion - it was very refreshing and light. I really enjoyed this cocktail. 10 For appetizer, we started off with the calamari Diablo calamari was kind of dry, but the sauce was like a tomato basil sauce you dip it in that was really good 5.5 French onion soup- I wasn't impressed. I could've used more cheese and it was Luke warm. 5.5 Short rib pappardelle (main dish)- I was really surprised by this dish. It was actually spicy and I love spice but it gives you no warning on the menu. The short rib was tough and I guess the sour creams on the side was because of the spice but I really didn't like this dish. 4.5 Chicken piccata pasta (my sisters main dish)- so I actually tried this dish I liked it. The pasta was really light and the bacon gave it a good amount of flavor, but my sister didn't like the capers it was her first time trying them lol but this dish was 6.5 Kids nachos come with beans and cheese the tortilla chips were cooked perfectly but they should have refried beans on top of them 4.5 This place has so much potential. I don't know if I pick the wrong menu item but the food doesn't live up to what it can. If I do come here again, it would probably be for cocktails and appetizers sadly. read more

Food was great, the quesadilla apps were incredible. Sat on patio...super fun and great vibe. Service was solid as well!

It was very close to 5 stars, but the food was just not quite there. It was good, not great. However, the service was FANTASTIC! David was our waiter and went above & beyond taking care of the needs of 16 ladies! It was fairly crowded for a Tuesday night, but our food and drink orders were timely, delivered hot, and with no mistakes. David followed up with us and provided whatever we needed. The service was definitely 5 star!! My calamari was ok, the sauce was good, but I wouldn't call it diablo. The French onion soup was good but a little greasy on top. Some of the things my dining mates ordered looked really good, but I didn't personally taste them, so I can't comment. I will definitely go back and try some other entrees and appetizers. If you go, ask for David's section. He's a rockstar! read more

When you arrive here the big problem is trying to find a place to park. If the spots along the road are filled, there is a free parking garage on Woodlawn Avenue next to the restaurant. The spots on the street are for 30-45 minute use. If you decide to dine out doors, they have some nice outdoor seating. When starting out, they do have a decent selection of cocktails, margaritas, wine and five craft beers. If you come here for lunch like we did, there will be a simple one page menu and a menu page for apps and salads. You do get a good 12 ounce beer pour, but I was underwhelmed with the $8 four ounce frozen margarita, so I switched to the Cadillac Ultima which was just slightly better at almost twice the price for 6 oz. We had the calamari Diablo app which was not spicy at all, but it did come with some fried pickles and Parmesan and was cooked perfectly. I got the French dip, and was not happy with the cheap white bun that desintagrated as I attempted to pick it up. It should have been served on a firm crusty baguette. The waffle fries were Ok, but I would have preferred another side choice. The veggie burger was good, but not made with black bean, although the gluten free bun was exceptional. The almond encrusted chicken salad was well made. We did decide to finish the meal off with the apple cobbler dessert with scoop of vanilla which was good. When it comes to the final transaction, they will not bring a handheld device with a tip screen waiting for your immediate attention. You'll have time to decide on the tip when you sign the bill. Plenty of photos for reference. *** drinks, ***1/2food, *****service, ***1/2 value read more

5 stars for the food!!! Stumbled on this place on a nice Sunday afternoon to watch some football and look forward to coming back to try other things on the menu! We only wanted something to munch on and The chicken tinga nachos DELIVERED! The is a delicious , elevated twist on nachos and I highly recommend asking for fresh and grilled jalepenos!! The service was pretty good and I'm thankful the bartender and manager found one last bottle of prosecco!! I really appreciate the fact they went to look for it to curb my craving! Great bar, indoor and outdoor seating and the food was great! read more

Food was just meh! We had a new server who we could definitely tell was new. But other staff helped out. O got the salad with steak. The first go around I could not even cut the steak! But that was quickly remedied. read more

Came for a drink and a chat with a mate and then saw their guacamole and the two servings of that later I saw their seasonal cobbler (peach) - and now I am full with delicious avocados and peaches and bluebell ice cream. The combination of flavors was absolutely delightful, leaving me completely satisfied and content. It was the perfect way to end a relaxing evening with good company and even better food. I'll definitely be coming back to indulge in more of their tasty offerings. read more

My buddy wanted to go check out hard count earlier and I'm glad he suggested it. They had most of the nfl games on and said that usually, they only have game sound on at the bar for the Texas teams, which is cool. Yvonne at the bar was great. Friendly, funny, and she made some delicious drinks. I had a few micheladas, blood Mary's, and an electric jellyfish on draft. The micheladas were Pacifico beer which was ideal and only $7. The bloody Mary and jellyfish were both $5 each which is a great deal. We had the fried mushrooms, which were plentiful, and I had the burger with the fried egg. It was pretty good and I took some home too. It was cold outside, but I look forward to trying their cornhole and outside firepit when it's nicer. read more

Enjoyed a dinner and drinks here on a Saturday night. Sports bar feel but the food and drinks were better than a typical sports bar. Had the chicken and shrimp skewers meal and it was delicious.

When you walk in, it is a fancy looking place and I loved that. Then you get the menu and order which is lovely. We started with the Fried Pickles and Guacamole. Both were astounding both in presentation and taste! Our entrees came and everyone was pleased with their dish besides me. My husband and I shared their French onion soup and I loved that! I should have gotten that as my main dish lol. I got the chicken picatta pasta which I usually love but this time it was bland and lacked flavor. I told my server my thoughts about the pasta and she did nothing! She did not offer a different dish or refund it even though I barely ate it. Our server did not even check in with us after dropping our entrees u til we were all done. I was kind of surprised. Parking was easy to find since it is in a complex with apartments and you can find surface parking or use the apartments guest parking. I would come back but definitely try something different. read more

Very very mediocre restaurant. The old fashioned came with no cherry or orange peel... it just looked off. Taste was average, as were our meals. The chicken on the salad looked like it was heated from the freezer in an air fryer. The salad alone just looked sad... Chick-fil-A's would have been better. Burger and fries were so-so. Nothing was bad, just average. The patio space is very nice however. read more

This place is totally awesome for food! And do they serve you a lot for food. Definitely a place you want to empty stomach on! We had quail and guacamole for appetizers. It was my first time ever eating quail and oh man it was delicious! Very flavorful! The guacamole was okay but needed more salt to it. I ordered the double angus beef burger. I was full from the quail, quac, along with chips and salsa. However, I did attempt to eat most of my burger! The patties on these burgers we are juicy and delicious! The staff were very friendly and the manager would check on us periodically. Our waiter kept up with us and would make sure we had our drink consistently filled and not empty. I also learned they have happy hour and heard it's worth coming to. Parking can be a pain in the area but is a parking garage by the hotel across from this place. So not too bad. read more

We didn't eat at the restaurant but enjoyed two delicious drinks that came with great service. First one we had was the Sweet Tart Martini and this was AMAZING.

We plan on making another trip back just for their drinks. Thank you read more

We used to come in often as we live very close. Came in today for a very quick lunch. They only had Buffet which was fine because we were in a rush to get to a movie. The server got both of our drinks wrong (mine just being a Dr Pepper she never brought and my husbands a specific margarita that she just got wrong) then our kids 3 and 4 getting lemonade. The Buffet was okay. We had to wave the server down for our check, she never refilled water, and they were SLOW. She mostly stood by the front door looking at it. No idea. But at this point we were in a rush after waiting for our check. My husband gave me the receipt. She charged us $12 for each kids for buffet. My 4 year old is completely GTube fed and doesn't swallow. He sometimes will try and specifically today he tried to swallow one of my cut up grapes from the buffet and a small bite of cookie. . My 3 year old eats some, but $12 for each kid!!!??? In addition she charged us for their lemonades so for my one child that eats (who again, is THREE) and my other child who doesn't- just their meals and drink were $30. The check was $95 for 4 of us ‍ will absolutely not be back read more
