Guacamole (v)

Atmosphere This bohemian gem captures the perfect natural vibe with a wonderful outdoor feel. It's exactly the kind of welcoming, laid-back space that makes you want to relax and enjoy the vibe. Service Service was attentive and friendly overall. The only minor note: we would have appreciated more frequent plate changes between courses. Food We discovered some of the best gluten-free cuisine in Austin here...hands down. Every dish showcased fresh ingredients and thoughtful flavor balance: Guacamole: Rich with a well-judged cumin note that enhanced without overpowering Ceviche: A perfectly light appetizer without being aggressively citrusy or fishy Tempura de Pescado Tacos: The standout of the meal. The fish was pristine, each element (sauce, fresh greens, fish) came together seamlessly Duck Panucho Tacos: night quite as impressive but still great textural contrast and vibrant fresh flavors. We're already planning to try the wagyu option next visit Churros: A stellar finish with three complementary sauces. Crispy exterior, soft interior, and excellent flavor Beverages The margaritas were exceptional! Top-notch quality that rounded out the meal perfectly. Overall This was easily our favorite restaurant in Austin. Highly recommended.

Great place for a vibey dinner! Had great music and loved all the decor. Our waiter was also awesome. We sat outside on a hot day and it wasn't too bad. To start we tried the sikil pak and loved it! The chips were perfect and the dip was similar to a pesto. Really enjoyed the juicy tomatoes it comes with too. For entrees and small plates we tried the fish tacos, the fried avocado tacos, barbacoa tacos, the duck tostada, and the shrimp dish. Really loved the shrimp and the barbacoa tacos. The other tacos were good but a little dry. The fish and avocado tacos are the same except for the protein inside. The duck tostada was good, not great. I did love the hot sauce that came with it and was putting it on my tacos. For dessert we got the tres leches and it was delicious! Came for a birthday dinner and they bring out a sparkler with your dessert. Overall, the vibes were great and the food was good but didn't eat anything that amazed me. Definitely want to come back for their taco happy hour!

The food is incredible. I love the tapas. The ambiance is definitely nice. The service is top notch. The menu is on the pricier side, but you do get quality food and service.

2 years later, the place still looks cool, though a little more worn off. They started a great happy hour, $10 for a margarita and 2 tacos (they are smaller but delish) The tequila ceviche was super weird, the foam was pretty but yuk, but once the foam went down into liquid, it turned out very good. Service was nice, friendly and professional. Highly recommend for HH! Pro-tip: if you're not big on fish, you can ask to switch your second taco to meat, and vice versa.

Always a great time! Parking - yes, free parking behind the restaurant and if it's full across the street there's a cheap parking garage Food - upscale, more tapas vibes, unique and occasionally roaring menu. Flavors are fresh, balanced, and haven't run into a menu option I haven't liked. Drinks - spicy marg here is great! Fun drink options, also plenty of wine options. Service - friendly and attentive. We've been here multiple times and it's always been a positive experience.

Tacos!

Friday's $25 prix fixe lunch menu is worth it! You get an app, two tacos, and dessert. The $1 margs seal the deal. My limit is 2! Great service (Thanks, Collin!) in an elegant and relaxing environment. Parking is limited. Reservations recommended.

Guacamole (v)

Service was very quick and attentive - with a great menu selection of small plates to share. We enjoyed the guacamole, tuna tostada and ceviche. All the dishes had a fresh and delicious flavor - a place that I really enjoyed on my visit to Austin.

Guac, crudo, margaritas

OVERVIEW: Decent (if not overpriced) food if you go during happy hour or for their new Friday lunch deal like we did. Nothing spectacular or anything to write home about, but not a bad spot for some beachy vibes and expensive tacos. Service is casual and quick. $25 3-course lunch special with $1 margs (max 3 per person) on Fridays! QUICK FACTS: - Parking? Yes, small lot behind the restaurant and street parking. - Reservations? Yes, recommended but not required. We walked in as a party of 2 on a Friday around 11:45am and were able to snag a table immediately. - Happy hour? Yes, they do have HH specials as well as the Friday lunch deal (as of 4/3/26). FOOD RATINGS: - Guac (3/5): Pretty mediocre as far as guac can go. Tastes like the premade stuff from the store. Nothing special. - Crudo (3/5): Not a bad crudo. Pleasantly surprised at how decent it was. Especially as part of the lunch course! - Brisket taco (4/5): Hate that everything has the buzz word "Wagyu" now, but this was a good taco. Generously filled. Nice spicy kick. - Fried fish taco (4/5): Despite looking like a black turd, this was pretty tasty. Tortillas were good. Toppings were good. They have a super spicy salsa available upon request. - Coconut lime sorbet (4/5): Refreshing and as expected. $1 margs can't be beat! They did taste like a mixer though. You get what you pay for.

Food was fantastic, service was on point, love the vibe, I felt like I was in a resort. My husband was excited it was gluten free kitchen bc he has an allergy. The server/kitchen was even accommodating to his dairy allergy as well. Stand out dishes were the tuna tostadas, and Waygu tacos, and the brussel sprouts I know just Brussels but with the stone fruit it gave it a sweet and earthy flavor I also really loved the hiramasa ceviche. I loved having the pineapple in it compared to just lemon or lime. The coconut lime sorbet was nice and zesty. The churros were really good but kept falling apart as we dipped. There is free parking directly behind the restaurant or on the street. The garage next door was $18 for 2 hours

Tuna Crudo

Yucatán-inspired restaurant. Tulum inspired design. Also known to be 100% gluten-free and seed-oil free for those with dietary sensitivities. There is a plant-based and vegan menu, but it's not entirely clear as they are blurred on the menu and a guest who doesn't eat dairy had selection of the menu after being assured it was "OK". They did the best they could to own the mistake, but it's something to be mindful of. I am a consistent guest here. As the food and service is predictable. Something about knowing what you're going to get from the experience and it doesn't deviate with highs and lows. I've had a lot of the menu, but I need to explore other dishes I've not had. I enjoy what Chef Jay is doing in the kitchen.

Ceviche
Nida A.

I want to be here every Friday for their lunch special! Literally the best three course deal you will get in Austin for $25. I had the ceviche, the Wagyu taco and the fish taco. For dessert, that passion fruits, sorbet, and the coconut pineapple flan were an absolute banger. The service was absolutely amazing. We sat outside. It literally felt like we're sitting in a sexy bar at a beach in Tulum. And that wasn't all the best part. They had margaritas for a dollar during lunch. And it wasn't their bottom shelf tequila. I expected to have multiple but only needed one drink to feel everything I needed to feel . Never seen a deal this amazing.

Nomade lead us off our Matcha Half Marathon tasting trail, but was nonetheless one the best drinks I had all day. Nomade served a hibiscus mimosa drink minus the alcohol. The drink was aesthetically pleasing to view and even more delightful to drink. I was reminded of the hotels in Cairo and Luxor Egypt, where they brought you a refreshing hibiscus welcome drink upon check-in into the hotel. While not Matcha, it was overwhelming delicious. I could have this hibiscus drink all day long. Nomade is a convergence of Zen, open concept and totally earthy environment. It has a retreat like atmosphere with the neutral colors and wicker basket lighting along with gravel floors in some areas of the restaurant. Our server was super friendly and extremely welcoming. Some people you meet, you feel like you have known them your entire life. This was the feeling today.

I give the service 5 stars, the food 3 stars, and the ambiance 4 stars. It felt wrong giving 3 stars so I'm rounding to 4. The food was ok. I'd give everything a B. It was good. No complaints but nothing was exceptional and I didn't find myself going back for another bite of anything in particular. The food was on the pricier side. For 2 adults and 2 kids we spend $238 (including tip) I would not voluntarily come back. But I'm glad we tried it once.

We started with the Morita shrimp, the crab cake, the crispy tamal ahogado, and the filet skewers, and all of them were excellent. Then we had the branzino, which was a standout. The sauces were rich, spicy, and smoky. We also got the New York strip, which was salty, buttery, smoky, and spicy all at once. For dessert, we had the cake and churros.

This was by far the best restaurant I went to when in Austin! Between the ambiance, service and…read morefood, this is a 10/10. We had a reservation for a party of 10 on a Saturday night. 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!!

I came here for a group brunch and it was very nice…read more We ordered: 1. Muhammara spread (5/5) 2. Greek salad (5/5) 3. Blackberry biscuit (5/5) 4. Shawarma spiced skirt steak (5/5) 5. 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.

We came here for the 3-5 PM weekday happy hour. The food: Pan Roasted Black Angus Hamburger - 50% off during Happy Hour. They try to serve the burger medium, but I thought it was closer to well done. Nevertheless, the burger was juicy and had a ton of beef flavor. It kind of fell apart but somehow still melted in my mouth. Fantastic burger. The shoestring fries were also amazing. Extra thin and crispy. What takes them over the top is thinly sliced fried garlic and rosemary. Wood Grilled Gulf Oysters - comes with 5 oysters. Smaller oysters buried in a pile of leeks, spinach and bacon. I thought this was really good. Fresh Oysters - served with mignonette, cocktail sauce, and fresh horseradish. Really fresh and it was fun to try a wide variety of them. They had 8 available and we tried 3 kinds. Complimentary Sourdough - this arrived with a whipped(?) butter and salt flakes to sprinkle on top. Very tasty. Shout out to our server, Ashley.

This tastes like it came straight out of someone's granny's kitchen in SPAIN. D E L I C I O U S.

The owner makes it a point to connect with customers, which was refreshing. You can tell this is passion-driven. You order via QR code at your table, then pick up out back when it's ready--easy. Everything is prepped daily in a Commercial kitchen and finished on the truck, and he proudly shared that the ingredients, spices, even the meats are sourced from Spain. Vegan paella? Incredible. Patatas bravas with vegan aioli? My personal favorite, sooo good. My husband loved the jamón serrano sandwich. And whatever you do, don't skip the sourdough rye with tomato spread.

Best idea ever and you get introduced to different things that you typically wouldn't maybe try on own. Ended up making a reservation for a Sunday evening and was seated towards the back. Unfortunately, you cannot do the tasting menu at the bar. You have to sit at a table. I will say that's a one downside because as a solo diner, it don't mind sitting at the bar, I would prefer it actually however I wanted the tasting menu so here we are. The dining room area was very modern and very high ceilings in the back area that I was seated in had a beautiful outdoor view, especially if you're facing outward. The kitchen itself you could see as you walked by through to go to the restrooms and then also you were able to see the bar when you first entered the restaurant. Once I was seated, I was able to order the tasting menu and I did add on the wine pairing menu which it's a decent amount. I'm not gonna lie thank goodness I took a ride share. First off they have a martini order sheet. So if you're looking for a specific type of martini, you can check off the boxes and hand it in. Now the thing that shocked me was when the martini cart came running around the corner. This was really fun to see as a gentleman next to me ordered a martini and it's made table side so you really get to see the action right upfront. Now, after the martini card left, my cart came with all of these little wonderful bites to start off with. The gentleman who gave me the rundown of what was on the menu let me know that I needed to eat as he was talking. So some of these items were meant to be eaten right away not to wait for him to finish his spiel. However, that came back because he ended up telling me I was going too fast! The food was amazing, everything that I had, I didn't take a ton of the food pictures cause I really wanted to enjoy the moment, but everything I had was amazing. There was nothing on the menu that I did not like. There was a couple next to me celebrating their anniversary and they ended up having the scallops which were absolutely phenomenal. They ended up telling me or asking me if I was getting scallops, and I wasn't sure because I didn't see it on the menu Thankfully, the next dish that came out next was the scallops and y'all that was absolutely oh my gosh just melted her mouth delicious. The couple watched me....and waited for the reaction. It didn't disappoint. Now the couple was there because they had a gift card which was nice and they were French told them specifically to get the scallops and you could order 10 of them and you totally could you totally could. They're that good. The service itself was phenomenal from start to finish everyone that came and assisted dropping off food or picking up plates bringing me the next round of wines was just absolutely so kind and fun to interact with. I also really enjoyed the variety of wines that were offered because it gave me a few new ones that I hadn't tried before which is always nice. Now it definitely is a bit pricey however I found that the service and the food itself was really amazing and I would totally go back. And yes, I would definitely do the tasting menu again cause it just made it so easy to try so many things on the menu. And I think they do it for all the guests, but there was a nice little lovely delicious pastry that was given to take home with me and it was phenomenal. The next day kind of reminded me of a Kouign-amann pastry, That is definitely get again!

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! Between the incredible food, fantastic drinks, and Jessica's wonderful service, this place was a winner all around! If you're in Austin, Moonshine Grill is definitely worth a stop! We loved every bite and sip!

Don't sleep on Moonshine Grill! We've been here a number of times and recently returned for dinner…read moreafter an event at the Fairmont Hotel. 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.
