    Seared Ahi tuna
    Neha S.

    The place is great for family dinning. The food is great, not a big menu but you will enjoy what they offer. We were a party of four (2 adults and 2 kids) and ended up paying $200. Mix of Texan and seafood. We tried soup, Halibut, Seared Ahi Tuna, Filet Mignon, and Grilled Salmon. For dessert do try their apple pie and dirt cake. The vibe is old country mix with contemporary. The service is great and attentive. Our server Ian gave us great recommendations.

    Michael was a fantastic server and knew the menu inside and out. The staff were extremely accommodating with our request to move outside, since inside was too loud for us. But the porch was lovely - just be aware that the heaters are strong! The amuse-Bouche was tasty, as were the cocktails. The squash bisque was on point, and the winter salad was gorgeous. My husband loved his steak, but honestly, the snapper was underwhelming. The pear dessert was refreshing, but the chocolate cake was a little much for me personally.

    Over priced but doesn't surprise me because it's a restaurant at a hotel. Ordered the Chilean sea bass $45 a la carte and it was served on top of this cherry or raspberry sweet sauce, omg horrible! Those two flavors don't go together. The sea bass was cooked perfect and very tasty! Tuna appetizer was good. The shrimp cocktail still had some of the shell on it, very disappointing! Jason ordered the filet and he said it was pretty good. Loved the mushrooms. Good wine list but way over priced. Creme brûlée: no vanilla so it's tasteless. The custard part is too thick and not creamy and smooth like a custard.

    Our first time dining here. We were impressed with the food. The ingredients were very fresh. Although the restaurant says classy attire don't let that deter you from trying it out. It's in a resort so resort wear is appropriate. Some people even wore jeans and shorts. Would we come back to this restaurant during our next stay at Lost Pines? Yes! Appetizer: baked brie (7/10) with candied pecans Entree: Kid's filet with Mac and cheese- 8/10. The filet was perfectly seasoned and perfectly cooked. Chilean Seabass with Duck and Brussels sprout leaves - 8/10 Waygu ribeye with truffle butter - 8/10. Steak was pretty good and perfectly cooked. Dessert: Kid's chocolate gelato - 5/10 slightly icy and had orange rinds in there I think. My daughter didn't want fancy ice cream and didn't like the taste Banana's foster cheesecake - 7/10

    We got a set menu that came with a salad appetizer, entree, shared sides and a dessert. The salad was a simple green salad with blackberries and corn bread croutons. There was too much dressing though. The salad was pretty standard but the corn bread croutons was a nice twist. The salmon was amazing. I believe it was partially broiled because it was unbelievably moist but the skin was crisp. This was probably my favorite part of the meal. The dessert was a chocolate bomb with peanut butter mousse inside. It was rich and decadent, and delicious. The food was really good, but my major complaint was the service. It was a slow and they mixed up our orders and forgot my cocktail. If you have the time to relax then that might not be too bad but this three course meal was spread over almost three hours.

I loved the whole experience. It's such a cute space and has that elevated feel without feeling overly fancy or uncomfortable. We started with the grilled focaccia and Watermelon on Fire, and both were excellent. The watermelon was one of those dishes that sounds a little questionable on paper but completely works once you taste it. Sweet, savory, a little spicy and really fresh. We also had the Texas quail, which was beautifully cooked and full of flavor. I had the blackberry bourbon cocktail and loved that too. What really stood out during dinner though was how personable the service was. We never felt rushed and our server actually engaged with us, which made an already good dinner feel even better. I went back this past Saturday for brunch with my sister, her husband and my fiancé. It was definitely a livelier experience with more people around, but still a really nice atmosphere for a Saturday brunch. The service was good and everything came out as expected, although it didn't have quite the same personal touch that I experienced during my first visit. Between the four of us we got to try quite a bit. The shrimp and grits were rich, buttery and seasoned really well. The smoky pork tostada was packed with flavor and the potatoes on the side were honestly some of my favorite bites on the table. The French toast and fried chicken was as good as it looked, with crispy chicken, fruit and just enough sweetness. The only thing I wasn't completely sold on was the biscuits and gravy. The gravy was brown, which threw me off because that's not what I normally expect from sausage gravy, and the biscuits were a little too dense for my preference. The flavor wasn't bad at all, it just wouldn't be my first choice the next time I go. Other than that, Store House has been a hit for me on both visits. The food feels thoughtful without trying too hard, the plates are beautiful, and the restaurant works just as well for a dinner with your sister as it does for brunch with a group. I'll definitely be back.

    NEIGHBORS KITCHEN & YARD -- BASTROP, TEXAS…read more It's currently approximately $197° in Texas and somehow Doug and I STILL walk into restaurants asking the same ridiculous question: "Can we sit outside?" At Neighbors Kitchen & Yard? YOU ABSOLUTELY WANT TO SIT OUTSIDE. Oh. My. Stars. Their multi-level outdoor space overlooks the Colorado River and has plenty of shade cloth, fans AND misters--which means even those of us determined to dine outdoors during the surface-of-the-sun portion of the Texas calendar can actually enjoy ourselves. Neighbors is located at The Crossing in Bastrop, which is a really cool little destination of its own with other businesses and shopping nearby. But let's get to the important stuff... BEER. CHEESE. DOGS. GREAT SERVICE. We happened to visit while they're trying out a Golden Hour special for September from 4-6 PM. Selected draft beers are $2 off, and appetizers--except wings--are also $2 off. Naturally... We considered it our responsibility to thoroughly investigate both specials. For research purposes, obviously. We tried FOUR different beers. Doug's winner was the Blonde. Mine? The BLUEBERRY BEER over ice. AWWEEEE SHITTTT. That was GOOD. Then came the food. OG Warm Cheese Dip Phenomenal. I would happily sit beside the Colorado River with that cheese dip and a beer and call it dinner. Doug ordered the Brussels sprouts. TO. DIE. FOR. Seriously, we were completely happy with everything we tried. But here's another thing that will get me every single time... They LOVE dogs. Not "we technically allow dogs." DOG FRIENDLY. Our pups were welcomed and immediately received two separate bowls of water. Little details like that tell me a lot about a place. And then there's Sadi, our server. SPECTACULAR. Friendly, attentive and one of those servers who helps turn a good outing into a place you're already talking about visiting again before you've even left. Great food. Great beer. Great specials. Fantastic service. Dogs genuinely welcomed. Beautiful Colorado River views. And an outdoor setup designed by people who apparently understand that some of us are stubborn enough to sit outside in Texas no matter WHAT. We LOVE it here. We will absolutely be back. Which brings us to... TW'S REAL PANTS RATING: -- 5 out of 5 Real Pants Would Doug and I leave the campground and put on real pants to come back? AWWEEEE SHITTTT... apparently we'd put them on in 197° weather. Neighbors didn't just earn all five pairs. They earned 'em with a river view, cold beer, warm cheese dip and water bowls for the dogs. That's how you knock our britches off. Portions were larger. We dove right in before pics.

Very attentive and friendly without being over the top. We definitely will come back and ask for her next time we visit Bastrop. Great job guys! I can easily see why y'all are voted the best pizza!

It can be misleading coming to places like this that they are a brewery that makes their own beer but I saw no sign or indication of such a thing here. But since we weren't local there were plenty of brews to try that were local. I got a great Pecan Porter that was very tasty and a nice beer to unwind to despite it being a bit warm outside (which is usually when I want light beers). The place was fairly busy but Bastrop is a bit of a touristy town and the location of this place is right downtown so it makes sense. Anyway it was a good experience coming here!

The mushrooms added a deep umami flavor that was perfectly paired with the sweet tasting swiss.
