The best tomato basil soup I have ever had! I am a tomato basil soup snob and this was top! The ambiance is pretty cool as well! One half restaurant, one half tavern! We had Stephen as a waiter and he was always there with fresh drinks and great recommendations! We will be back! read more

Returned 4 years later and had the exact same experience. Friendly and fast service. The food was meh. 1. My husband enjoyed the chicken and waffles and isn't a big eater but it just wasn't a lot of food. It was literally ONE chicken tender divided between ONE waffle. Please see the pic. He said they were heavy on the honey butter and light on the chicken and waffles. This dish didn't come with any sides or other food. 2. Both kids (despite my advice) ordered breakfast. The eggs were ordered over easy and unfortunately they came broken and already runny (pic). The bacon on one was so very very crisp and on the other it was floppy. The hash browns were cooked in so much oil that it felt like you were eating oil - not potatoes. The biscuits were dry. The jalapeño gravy was tasty but we needed a lot more of it to make up for the dry biscuit. 3. Finally, I disliked my food last time which is why we hadn't been back for 4 years but everyone deserves another chanc. Today I ordered off their "specials" menu and got redfish. Redfish is one of my favorite fish so I was excited to try it. When it came I was happy because it was a nice sized portion (see pic). Then I tasted it. It was so fishy and as I picked it apart,I could see it was the blood vein piece. I could not eat it. My teenager is a vacuum and ate it. I then finished our 10 year olds left over eggs breakfast. The green beans under the fish were cooked well. I thought at least I can eat the green beans. Then I took another bite and noticed the SALT. I love my salt. I'm known to salt everything but these were just so so salty I couldn't enjoy them. I did eat them because I was hungry (and later my son's leftover egg dish). The other patios all had a wait. The server was sweet and the food came out fast. read more

I normally don't write reviews for takeout since the food quality isn't the same as eating at a restaurant and you don't get the full dining experience, but sadly the overall taste of the food here warrants a review. Everything we ordered could be summed up with one word: dry. We ended up not finishing a lot of the food due to how dry everything was and the lack of flavor. It's such a shame. - Meatloaf Bites (1/5) - this dish was so hard and dry. It was pretty difficult to enjoy - French Onion Soup Cup (3/5) - The one thing that wasn't dry since it was a soup. This had decent flavor but just a tad salty to me - Chicken Diane (2/5) - I was excited for this mainly because of the green beans. The chicken itself is very dry. The mushroom brandy cream sauce was flavorful but it didn't do much to help the dryness and lack of flavor of the chicken. The green beans were fresh and nice though. - Southern Burger (3/5) - The patty looked juicy but once you bite into it, it was very dry. The fries that the burger came with also needed more seasoning. - Grilled Atlantic Salmon (1/5) - Very dry. - Fried Apple Pie (3/5) - Dry. The bourbon caramel sauce was a nice touch though read more

This spot seems like a nice spot for a date night. The location is pretty convenient in a small plaza with easy parking. The food was good, but not worth the price tag, in my opinion. I just wasn't wowed to go back and pay that price again. This feeling was mutual amongst the rest of my party. The bartender was running the place which was okay because it was slow. read more

We dined in at the league during lunch and got great service while we were there. An upscale tavern vibe with TVs around to watch one of the games. The menu features all of your bar favorite bites and more. I got the prime steak sandwich which features a great au juis dip. Food came out quickly and the food was delicious and everything was pretty affordable as well. A great and affordable to go for a night out. read more

My husband and I went on a Thursday evening to use a coupon and take advantage of the half-price wine and prime rib special. We had been looking forward to it, as this restaurant is usually very busy and has a solid reputation. Unfortunately, the food did not meet our expectations. We shared the French onion soup to start. The broth was overly salty and tasted artificial rather than like a traditional, slow-simmered beef broth. We didn't finish it. I ordered the roast chicken with a sweet potato. The sweet potato was undercooked and still firm, and the chicken tasted reheated rather than freshly prepared. I did not finish my meal. My husband ordered the prime rib, which was mostly fat and arrived cold. He sent it back, and the waitress was apologetic, which we appreciated. We did enjoy the bottle of Decoy Cabernet on the half-price special. It was normally priced at $60 a bottle. We got it for $30. I noticed on Friday that it sells at HEB for$19.99 which made the pricing very inflated. The service was polite, and the restaurant was very crowded, but the food quality did not match the popularity. We were surprised and disappointed, as we expected better based on the reputation. Hopefully this was just an off night, but we wanted to share our experience for others considering a visit. read more

Appetizers were great! We each had a different entree salad for lunch and they were really good as well. Really good cocktails and service to top it off. We sat outside on the patio on a warm and not so windy day and it was a perfect spot to enjoy a great lunch. read more

Great service, good food, and the sound on for the football games -- which matters. They took care of us after Brooklyn Heights closed. We were looking for a place to hang out, and The League stepped up and got us in without hesitation. Solid vibe, welcoming staff, and exactly what we were looking for. Definitely here to stay read more

Consistency ! That's what makes this restaurant a safe and great choice to dine. We have been coming here since 2009 and the only changes were always for the better. Yesterday, my wife ordered the prime steak sandwich. that item was one of my favorites over the years and it came out of the kitchen as we expected, hot, juicy and delicious. I ordered the chicken pot pie. I have had it before and when it was first offered, it was OK but they improved it and it has become another favorite. I can't leave the staff out of this review. The lovely and charming hostess who greeted us with a smile, our server, AM bar B (Probably not his name) a more friendly and engaging person probably doesn't exist. Go there with confidence. read more

Amazing dining experience, great food, wonderful service. Russell is the best! This was our first time visiting and they made sure to tell us about the restaurant, the prohibition theme and the wonderful things to try. Russell is the person I want at every table. Thanks to a recommendation in a food group from the book of faces we came to try the Fat Tire Fish and Chips-superb. (Get the truffle fries, you won't regret it.) We also tried the spinach dip....so yummy! Came with black salted tortilla chips..perfection! The mister got the grilled chicken sandwich, the chicken was well cooked and tasted good! Finally we had the Gma's Old Fashioned Dump cake.....Devine!!! They make the toffee y'all! I literally have a list of the things I want to try when we come back. For a Friday night, it was wonderful to be sat right away. They have a nice mix of tables and tall booths, very comfy. They make their tartar sauce in house. Chefs kiss! read more

This was a good spot and our server (the bartender) was really nice.

We visited The League 2/13/2026 for dinner. Our server was very friendly and attentive. We both ordered the fish and chips. The food was awful! The fish and fries were clearly fried a second time. We ate very little of our food. Won't be returning and don't recommend. read more

Been going for years on Mondays for BOGO burger night. But recently been hanging on the regular there with some buds. Service is consistent, attentive and friendly, the beer is cold AF, food is awesome. Mgmt is legit and always checks in w us to make sure we are good and they listen when their customers give them feedback.

Great food. Good prices. Monday burger night is the best way to cheat on your NYR's. Bartenders are always friendly and on top of stuff. Great place to sit with friends. There are a lot of TVs in the bar but, it is a sports bar. The good side is that they aren't loud and the clientele tend to be fairly relaxed about their teams. Great place to unwind after work. Friendly staff and customers (usually). read more

This is for the Avery Ranch location. We forgot out leftover food. We pulled out of the parking lot and immediately remembered. Called and said we would be back in 2 minutes and the bus boy had already thrown it in the trash. We literally weren't gone 4 minutes. Wow.... Hostess in the black dress and the bus boy were too busy chatting when we left to say thanks, have a good night, nothing. Glad we didn't interrupt their conversation. I'm only giving it 2 stars as the waitress was wonderful! read more

I come here a lot and it's usually super good. Maybe an off night. My blackened ahi tuna was burnt and very dry tonight and the sauce was wayyyy too sweet. Plus they were out of vegetables???

BOGO burgers on Monday. Food is top tier - burger juicy and medium rare. I like the Southern Burger. Fries are perfect. But their service is top notch. Russell has waited on us twice and is truly wonderful and patient. Went in with a cranky husband today and they were so great at handling even someone obviously having a rough day. Thank you for your patience, Russell. Ambiance is good - clean, bright, always welcoming. read more

Unusual experience. Sat at a 75% empty bar but really had a hard time getting service. Sat close to 10 minutes before getting a menu, and then only from a server I asked. Never got a utensil setup when my food arrived, I ended up getting one myself from behind the bar because she disappeared for over 5 minutes. Needed condiments, ended up catching someone coming from the kitchen. Later I was going to get another beer but another 10 minutes passed from getting the beer list to being asked what I wanted so I just grabbed the check because the game was basically over at that Felt invisible. UPDATE SEPTEMBER 2024: Yeah, I just don't trust them anymore. My last two times in to avail myself of the BOGO Burger deal, the burgers have come out well done despite being ordered medium rare. I don't like sending food back, but this last time I did and it came back about medium well. I don't know what has happened here, I've been a customer since a few weeks after they opened but I think I finally have to cash out. What's so odd is that 100 feet away sits Tony C's, under the same ownership, who provide a superlative experience every time. I honestly feel bad about this review, but the old League is dead. read more

Gluten Free Buns Pro: They have gluten free buns. They charge slightly less than others Con: Like most, when you pay extra for the GF bun, your protein is wildly reduced. Why charge more for a GF bun and short the most expensive ingredient. In this picture the regular version is on top. The GF is on bottom. The photo is misleading since the GF is closer. But it's probably right at 50% of the serving. The league is a great place. But for those with an auto-immune disease, is it really with the $1.50 to make them pay more and serve them less? Might as well charge for wheelchair access. read more

The League Kitchen & Tavern - Gluten Free prime steak sandwich and a regular one. GF is half the size.. - Bars Near Me - Austin, Texas

First, I went there right after an intense run at nearby Brushy Creek, and I was very ragged, yet was treated with respect. Worth an extra star right there. Had fish and chips and a tall boch which pairs well. A bit pricey but exemplary. Extra star for this menu item when it's done well because it's my test for commitment to quality. Nice atmosphere and they made me feel comfortable and welcome, ant that means I will be back to try other menu items. Any "I'll be back" is worth three stars minimum, so I'm good to give them five stars counting the extra stars. If you are not scrimping on costs (and yes we've all been there) then this place is worth a try! read more

the service and food experience was terrible!! our server never came so manager walked over and got us water and i ordered a cocktail which never arrived. I asked or it 2x after ordering it. the food was served on the other end of the very wide booth, so the delivery person and us had to stretch over 6 feet of table to grab plates. Food was COLD. burger and fries, cold, & came w/ lettuce but we ordered no lettuce, or onion, just tomato and pickle. so had to deal w getting tomato and getting new bun without pound of lettuce. My dish was 6 cold pucks of meat, dry and cold... not juice meatballs. just 6 dry leathery square meat things... terrible. my tomato basit soup was just indeed tomatoe sauce... and cold. finally my cocktail arrived after i requested it again. had to flag down people for help, our server was present once, and then to get paid, we asked him to check out. $70 and it was aweful - upscale???? I THINK NOT in my experince read more

Definitely would recommend this restaurant. Great food (Southern Burger with truffle fries and aioli is the best) no wait, and exceptional staff. Merissa is highlight of what an astute and compassionate bartender is. I never saw her standing still, she was always moving no matter the rush with a smile on her face. Great atmosphere during St. Patrick's Day. As much as I love the theatrics and decor. It wasn't crazy over the top looking like a green confetti explosion of decorations went off. It was subtle, and appreciate that still kept the theme of the original establishment. Would recommend on a weekday or holiday. read more

We stopped by The League Kitchen recently on a Friday evening in search of fish and chips, which, per my fellow Yelpers, received top billing from quite a few reviewers. Our experience, unfortunately, was not the best. I arrived early and took a seat at the bar, perused the specialty cocktail list and opted for the El Guapo Shandy, a very good cocktail consisting of ruby red vodka, lemon and lime juices, honey and a splash of cream ale. Refreshing taste! Once seated, we decided to start with the tuna tartare tacos, which could have been better. One consistent theme that emerged during meal is the smothering of dishes with sweet sauces. The tuna tacos were the first fatality of that process. As the picture shows, the dish is soaking in the spicy mayo sauce that was poured all over the tacos and slaw. After digging through the sauce to retrieve the tuna, the tuna was spectacular; and, the few bites of slaw salvaged from under the blanket of sauce were very good too. The sauce overwhelmed the wonton shell "tortillas" which made them pretty soggy. Serving suggestion ... IMHO, sauce on the side, let the diner choose the amount of sauce to use eating the tacos. Main courses included the sought-after fish and chips and the fresh catch of the day special... hot and crunchy trout. When ordering fish and chips anywhere, we stress our preference for fish and the fries "hot out of the fryer" and not food sitting under the lights for any length of time. The fish and chips met that goal 50/50. The fish, super hot to the touch, almost impossible to eat at first (which is what we want! LOL), the batter was nice and thin, the fish tasted great. The fries were slightly above room temperature when served, not enjoyable at all, especially since we had upgraded to the truffle/cheese topping. The "malted tartar sauce" was not very good, we would have preferred just regular tartar sauce. The hot and crunchy trout saw the return of the over-sauced seafood malady. The cornflake/almond crust was really thick, too much for a thin trout filet. (See the partially eaten trout pic for an idea of the thickness of the crust... twice as much crust as fish.) Perhaps a thick piece cod could stand up to that crust. As the tacos suffered, so the trout suffered from a copious amount of chipotle/mango aioli. (See pic of dish as delivered). Does anyone actually like that much sauce? The overly thick crust also fell victim to the over-abundance of sauce, making the crust pretty soggy. Here, IMHO, the same suggestion as the tacos, sauce on the side. Despite the thick crust, the trout was very good, just not a very good dish overall. Note: the online picture of the trout dish shows much less sauce, likely a more appropriate amount and placement on the plate, most of the sauce on the side of the plate, not on the fish and green beans. We finished with a complimentary piece of The League's dump cake, which first time diners are provided. The dessert was the star of the show! It's a "deconstructed" dump cake that many of us had as children (at least I did), very, soft, moist chocolate cake, topped with homemade toffee chips, served with pecans and vanilla bean ice cream. Good combination, great dish! Overall, the service was great! Our server Noah was attentive but not intrusive. He didn't deliver on the hot fries, but he was a good waiter, and explained the restaurant concept and items on the menu very well. The restaurant was not super busy. It has a fun feel, some retro furniture and fixtures, and very moderate noise level. The music was a bit loud in the bar area, but in the dining area that was not an issue. Not sure whether we'll be back, although we may stop by for dessert to have more of the fabulous dump cake! read more

Ordered spinach artichoke dip. It was tasty but the chips weren't fresh. On Father's day they advertised free prime rib for dad's with another dish of equal or lesser price. .We were 4 people. Two ordered 12oz prime rib plates. Two ordered 8 oz. When the check came, they deducted the two 8 oz dishes even though the sign said equal or lesser. Two 12 oz should have one deducted and the two 8 oz should have one deducted. What they did was not fair. read more

This was a great spot, been wanting to come here and finally made it! We came for brunch pretty much as soon as they opened so it was quiet out, some things were still being set up. We sat outside since we had our pet, the outdoor heaters were left on which we alerted them about and they immediately turned them off, however, that made it hot and they did not have any outdoor fans. Our server was amazing, heard us and was on point with refilling our mimosas, had suggestions despite being pretty new on the job. We let her know we were first timers and the next thing we know, the manager comes out with the dump cake desert on the house - which was so very delicious! Veggie burger was tasty, fish & chips were really good - overall, we'd come back again and especially for the dessert! read more

First time customers, we went at an odd time about 4pm yesterday on Saturday. Only a couple other people were there so I began to worry that this may not be a very good place to eat, I WAS WRONG. The host opened the door for our stroller, smiled and was super friendly. Our waitress was just as friendly and attentive. Portions were large and fresh. The fried pickles are sweet just FYI, I'm more of a dill pickle lover but my family really liked them. The fries are real fresh cut fries, not frozen & we're DELICIOUS. We shared the club sandwich, it's plenty for two people plus the fries. My husband ordered the sweet brussel sprouts and said they were the best he's had! My family also ordered the shrimp salad and burger with fries and both said it was great. We will be back! read more

So kind of a long, but important review on the League, and also Tony C's, which is right next door. Allow me to explain. My wife and I went to the League last night, Wednesday, 7/3, and sat at the bar. The young man working at the bar eventually took our drink orders and brought us menus. The restaurant was not that busy...maybe 1/2 to 1/3 filled. The young man came back and asked for our orders, which we gave him. We also asked him for water. 30 minutes later we asked again for our waters. Interestingly, a man came up to the bar, from his booth, asking where his wings were. Waiting, waiting and more waiting and then we noticed that the wings and steak sandwich had been brought up from the kitchen, but that couple was long gone. 45 minutes have now gone by. Still no water. I ask him again for water, he apologizes and brings it. I noticed that it almost been an hour with no food, so I asked the manager on the status of our order. After a few minutes, she came back and apologized that the young man forgot to put in our order- that he felt OVERWHELMED!!! Seriously???! She knew this wasn't right and she graciously comped our drinks. Being hungry, we went next door to TonyC's. The place was packed! Jacob was working at the bar and he made room for us to sit down. Water was immediately brought and we placed our orders - Wine, salads and pizza. Our wine came out immediately, our salads came within minutes and 15 minutes later a delicious pizza was served. Amazing food and service!! The most interesting thing is this - both the League and Tony C's have the same owner- yet one is like a turbo charged Ferrari and the other is like a broken down Edsel. Hopefully the League can solve their myriad of problems, starting with getting rid of their overwhelmed employee, but for us, we're done with them! read more

After a company meeting, our team met at The League Kitchen & Tavern for a mid-day lunch. The inside features plenty of seating and provides a warm and welcoming atmosphere. It felt a bit rustic and appears well-maintained. Our server for the day was attentive and provided fantastic service throughout our visit. Just an aside, I am always impressed with servers who can remember every order, especially with a 7-top, including modifications, and our server did just that. Everything came out perfect and as ordered. The food was good, I believe all of us were satisfied with our orders. I'm happy that a place that lists a steak on their menu know how to cook it to order. The only thing that could be perceived as an inconvenience was the speed of the drinks. However, we were informed that the bartender was somewhat new. With that said, the bartender was absolutely on point with their drinks. Every drink we received was perfect and tasted great, well worth the wait. Also gave us time to drink some water in-between drinks. Overall, we all had a great experience at The League Kitchen & Tavern and I would recommend it to anyone in the area. read more
