    If you've been to Lala's Little Nugget you know what to expect here, except…read more.. Imagine Lala's feels like a chill, comfy neighborhood bar where you can actually enjoy yourself, and the ambiance, and have a conversation with whoever you came with, instead of a tourist clogged beehive? Because BOOM that's Lala's South Pole. I'm not even a big Christmas person, and I am smitten. Charming, quite, festive. It feels like a hidden gem. I probably shouldn't be reviewing it so it can stay that way, but no one like a gatekeeper. Also, absolute baller pizza from Brooklyn Pie Co. I had to really talk myself down from going back the next night just for more pizza. The service is... well what you would expect from a "trendy" Austin dive bar, as in... None, but that's part of the charm kind of? I've actually tried a lot of new pizza places lately and this is what stands out in my mind. Drinks wise? It's a bar. They serve you alcohol. Nothing special, but nothing wrong with it either.

    I've been to Lala's Little Nugget a whole bunch of times but never to this location. We were there…read morefor Nickel City's holiday party (yes, in February) & had a fab time. They've got a huge back outdoor patio as well as a front patio. Brooklyn Pie Co. is set up inside to take care of your food needs. For those that don't know, Lala's South Pole (& Little Nugget) are year-round holiday bars. While Little Nugget really goes all out, South Pole isn't too shabby at all. Great decor, wonderfully curated holiday cocktails and mocktails, beers, spirits, and more. Super service. This is a place where there's no way you could ever feel sad or down and out because it's just pumpkin' with happy holiday vibes.

    It was really chilly upon coming inside and since there was only one other table, the waiter was…read morenice enough to turn down/off the ac for us. The remainder of his service however, just felt a little off. He spilled water in the beginning then didn't bring me another one until I asked. Then knocked off one of the breads out of the basket when putting it in the table. Then, instead of walking around to put cheese on each of our plates, he leaned over with his arms and elbows across the table and in our faces to reach to the plate on the other side. We ordered a spaghetti marinara, a spaghetti meatballs, a pesto penne and received bread with oil/garlic/pepper in the beginning. The portions were so small in the entrees and overpriced. My little one was still so hungry despite devouring his entire plate before mine even came. The decor was cute and photo oppy though. But, I don't think we will be coming back.

    Really bums me out to have to update this. In fact, I had a poor experience at Amici about a year…read moreago and i spoke to the owner and she was so nice and apologetic so i just chalked it up to a busy night for a newer restaurant. Specifically, after loving the carbonara the first time i went, the second time the sauce was watery and so much different. But, after giving it another shot, I unfortunately felt the need to update. The SW Austin to Dripping corridor doesn't have many actual restaurants so Ive been really rooting for this one to be great, and I know the owners lived in Jersey so extra points there. But after returning with family in town from NJ, I really need them to improve on a number of things before I can return. The casual ambiance and decor is great, and I've typically found the staff to be very helpful and nice. In fact, the host/busser/runner/customer service young lady was so helpful and so kind. Our server was a very nice young man but clearly overwhelmed with about 4-5 4 top tables under his coverage. He really did his best. In general, I think the restaurant isn't managed as well as it should be, and that creates multiple hiccups in the experience. Little things add up - like...we placed our order and then they came back and said they were out of lasanga (better to be told that right when we are seated). It was difficult to get our bread...just little things like that.. But most of that stuff isn't a dealbreaker as much as the food - the chicken parm was terrible. I took one bite and that was it. It wasn't crispy - or tasty - it was just like a soggy tasteless mess. Even the pasta, the spaghetti had no flavor and the overly acidic tomato sauce slid right off of it. An Italian restaurant with a Little Italy heritage should really nail the chicken parm. speaking of the bread - one of the markers of a great restaurant is warm bread; this was the HEB pan fraces (which we love btw at home) cut up and put on a plate - the olive oil was good though. On the plus side, the salads are rather large! I've liked their pizza in the past and it's fine so I would order it again for delivery. I truly hope they can improve, because there is so much potential there, but for now I am going to have to pin my hopes to Cousin Louies (haven't tried that or Vessa Rossa yet, but am a big fan of Trattoria Lisina in the Drip/Drift area.

The space is super cute with a really inviting outdoor area that makes you want to stay awhile. There is plenty of parking which is always a plus, and the staff was incredibly friendly. Overall just a really fun place to hang out, enjoy the weather, and relax with friends. Definitely recommend.

    To preface, Austin Beerworks is fantastic and has great beer and TCH options for in-house or to-go…read more They seems to always have a good vibe, good pours, and a clean space. My main issue is with Rocky's Grill, one of their food trucks, since not only did they get my order wrong (ordered a classic hot dog and somehow got a burger) but are way overpriced for their value. The size of the burger and fries is not up to the price despite the flavor. If I'm ordering a "basket" of fries I expect much more than the 20-ish individual fries presented for $5. The burger was also quite small which was extra disappointing since it was more bun than meat. The reason why I'm not really tanking the stars is because 1. they gave me a beer coin since I said I didn't order a burger, and 2. offered to fire up a hot dog, but that would've meant the food I was presented went to waste which I didn't want either. I'm sure they're great, but pricing should be adjusted to service and value.
