    Downtown Austin from the 21at Floor

    I spent many years enjoying the Headliners on my father-in-law's dime. Our dinners were reserved for special occasions such as Christmas, Anniversaries and other family events. It is a beautiful club which always feels very Old School. As in, old old school. But that's okay if people want to take me there, I'm game. The view of the Texas State Capitol is unparalleled and the lights along Congress at night and especially at Christmas are beautiful seen from the 21st Floor. Originally, The Headliners was organized by Charles Green, the once Executive Editor of the Austin American Statesman, for those people who work directly with and are elected to the Texas Legislature. It's now more a private club but you will still see some of the movers and shakers dining here. The food, drinks and service are always perfect. Marilyn and Jayne pose nude on the wall of the Men's room but I can't say how I know this.

    The first rule of Headliners club is not to talk about Headliners club. OK, I'll dish. This place is a cut above the rest. The décor has been masterfully designed with wood paneling, luxurious cabinets and award winning books and mementos. It starts out with wait staff who truly practice an art long forgotten providing ninja like service. You're on the 24th floor of the Chase building so every view is a GREAT view. The furniture is plush and comfy and if I had enough time I would have fallen into a peaceful slumber. Food.....oh boy you're in for a treat and the weird thing is that you don't want this to end anytime soon because you'll be back in the real world soon enough. Membership has it's prividleges.

    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.

I just spent 30 minutes on the phone with the store manager because we have not received the food. It is now 5pm. The manager couldn't find the order but after 30 minutes found it. He told me that I was supposed to have a delivery service pick it up. No, the website has two boxes to check, pick up or delivery. It is their responsibility to have some delivery service. A few weeks ago I ordered from the same pollo Regio for delivery. They contradicted with a service but the order was over an hour late. After being on the phone with the store manager he supposedly gave me a full credit. I have tried to contact the Austin manager but can't find him/her. TERRIBLE SERVICE!!!!! Please spread this message. Thank you.

Service was excellent as there weren't too many patrons on the afternoon that we visited. The decor is cute yet casual. When we're back in Austin, we'll definitely come back!

Definitely has a kick, be prepared if you don't take spicy food well. Thai Hippie Tofu - Good flavor, although there was a little too much sauce and salty for my taste. Char-Buff Cauliflower - Good and flavorful. Hawaiian Shrimp Ceviche - Refreshing and a nice option. Itchy Salmon - Two tiny pieces of sushi, but they were good. Brisket Rangoons - Just okay for me. This was probably my least favorite dish of the night. Sweet Potato Waffle Fries - crispy with good flavor. A fun side to share. Smash Burger - We had it cut in half, which made it perfect for sharing. Good burger and a satisfying way to end the meal. Overall, a fun spot for happy hour if you want to order several different dishes and share. There was a good variety.

We made a res and that was a good choice as they fill up very fast here. There is complimentary valet parking as well for those worried about their cars. The interior is modern and sleek but doesn't lack a soul, which extends to their servers and workers, phenomenal. For our food we went with cornbread, pork belly sliders, aged wagyu burger, and fettuccine. The cornbread was phenomenal, an easy standout with a grilled onion butter that provides a pop of flavor. The pork belly sliders were also good, balancing all flavors perfectly. The fettuccine was good, not great. The chips and their texture took a lot away from what else was going on in the dish. Now for the best part of the meal, the burger. This burger is unworldly, an absolutely delicious bite brimming with juice. The beer cheese and jam do so much here with a perfectly cooked patty. The definition of a signature dish. Odd Duck is such a standout in what can sometimes feel like a copy paste food scene here in Austin. We're glad to have eaten here before its inevitable (at this rate) first star.

Sat at the chef's counter to see the action and booked through Resy.

The restaurant itself is decorated so nice, it's picture perfect. I also really appreciate a restaurant committed to having options that are seed oil free, from local farms and also having options without refined sugar. Miranda was our server and she was so kind and attentive. She made sure we had a great experience and was a pleasure to talk to. To eat I ordered the classic breakfast and to drink I had the vanilla maca. I didn't love the vanilla maca, and I only blame myself for that. I have never had maca so I didn't know what to expect but the drink basically tasted like a chocolate protein shake. Which isn't bad but I wanted like more of a latte so that was on me. My meal however? Loved it. Everything was so flavorful and hit the spot exactly with what I wanted. I also really appreciate a salad with breakfast since this helps lower your glucose spike and so when a restaurant offers this I know they know true wellness!!! My girlfriends both ordered the avocado toast and loved it. One ordered the cherry vanilla limeade and enjoyed it as well, but as an avid cherry hater I didn't try it...but if you like cherry she recommends it! I would come back to Austin just to eat here again. So good. So jealous this isn't back home... did I mention that already??!!

It was painfully boring. We had our 6-year-old, who is head of the Picky Eaters Society, so we ordered bread with butter. This 6-year-old, who eats bread on the daily, took one bite and wouldn't eat any more. We even get gluten-free bread regularly, and he eats it. The bread was fine, but don't expect flavor. By some miracle, they even made butter tasteless. I considered calling the Vatican to see if this was some holy, divine miracle, but my wife suggested maybe the main course would be better. We settled on the pesto pasta with chicken added for an additional fee. The pasta was good. Great texture, good flavor, and the combination of ingredients was good, but it's nothing original. It's pesto pasta. It's a classic. I appreciate the pomegranate seeds on the guacamole because it's original, it's clever, and it's different. We also ordered a special soda drink for our son, and it had a small black bug on top. I had them take it back and replace it. I kind of expected a "Listen, we apologize for the bug. Here's half off dinner," or something, but nothing. Service was fine, and it's a decent atmosphere. If you're looking for a place to sit and talk it's a great place, but if you want food or a drink go somewhere else.

Were were going to go to First Thursday on Rainey Street but it was raining too hard so she found this other option and I'm glad she did. About 7 of us went to check it out and had a great time. They were handing out free food samples of oysters, fish cakes, chicken balls, and cake as well as $5 mini martinis. It was a fun pre-ACL vibe and they had music playing in different areas of the restaurant. I didn't know they had a very back room bar or an upstairs area before that night and I've been to Eberly several times since they opened I guess 10 years ago! Our waitress was great and despite the chaos and it being packed, we could usually find her and get our order in and our food/drinks in a reasonable amount of time. They also offered complimentary valet parking for the event, but of course we tipped. They had umbrellas for us to use walking from valet to the entrance, which was a nice touch as it was raining off and on that evening. Kudos to them for pulling off a fun and packed event despite the rain last week!

It took us a while to decide what we wanted, but majority consensus we had a bunch of Caesar salads + sides. It took a very long time for food to come out and one of us never received their Caesar salad + side. It was hard for us to understand because it's a salad and the side was like crushed potatoes. She ultimately had to eat someone else's food and our waiter had to tell the kitchen about the mess up - then by the time everyone was done with their meal, the food came out and we had to take it to go. we spoke to the manager, and we received complimentary champagne and discounts of meals for all the inconveniences. And I fear that's the only reason it's getting 2 stars. I think this is a could be a great restaurant, but unfortunately we did not experience that. I got the chicken ceasar salad and the chicken was delicious and flavorful. But the actual salad itself lacked any dressing and can be shown in the photo. When I think of Caesar salad I think of the dressing. Then I shared the lobster mac and cheese and it was really good and has a kick of cajun seasoning or pepper. Overall would recommend not coming here for large groups. .

I ordered it medium rare, but it came out closer to medium-well. The meat also had a bit of a funk to it, which made it seem like it may not have been the freshest cut. The fries were also underwhelming--poorly seasoned and pretty forgettable. Based on this experience, I probably wouldn't come back for the steak frites or another steak/meat entrée. That said, the restaurant itself is beautiful and very vibey, and I could see it being a great spot to grab a cocktail on the patio.
