Thanksgiving Day lunch at The Overlook Restaurant. Really great selection. They had a regular baked turkey- plus a fried turkey (that was my favorite). #2 on my list was their sweet potato casserole with a pecan butter topping. #3 their smoked ham. Great service. Excellent food. Lots of yummy desserts. Loved their pecan pie. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Fun place to enjoy a Thanksgiving Day meal.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

It's a beautiful setting, the day was a little cool, but with the sun out, lunch on the deck was just what we needed. I've been to the Overlook several times and have always enjoyed the food and service. This visit, we tried the boudin egg rolls, cheese curds, and the brussel sprouts. I can't say enough about the crispy brussel sprouts. The honey sriracha sauce made this dish! I feel like I'm a brussel sprout connoisseur, we try them at every restaurant that has them. So many ways to make them, and the overlook has certainly found a delicious version - so good! The cheese curds are cheese curds. Nothing special about them, and as long as they are served warm, they are good. The boudin egg rolls were crispy and had great flavor. Our server, a tall older gentleman, was phenomenal. I asked his name, wanted to remember his name, and here I sit unable to recall it, but what I do know is that he was very attentive, friendly and engaging, and took great care of us. Highly recommend the Overlook! read more

Food was acceptable. We had reservations but were not informed it was buffet only. Two members of our party did not eat beef, and they only offered roast beef. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We took guests from out of town who wanted to see the sunset, but shades were down, could not be raised and windows were blurry.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall very disappointing. read more

We were beyond pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food when we wandered in for lunch yesterday. Mom and I were on an adventure, driving over to explore Lake Buchanan from Georgetown and find a spot along the way to lunch. She is elderly and uses a walker, so I always need to find places with minimal walking needed and handicap accessibility. We arrived toward the end of lunch and there appeared to only be one waiter, however to be fair .. there were literally three seated tables. The room feels dated and tired and has a faint, musty odor, but we came for the view and had low expectations. Thus, the pleasant surprise. We ordered chicken nachos with cheese on the side (I know it sounds weird however I can only do minimal cheese) to share. What a great idea that way! It came from the kitchen very quickly, and a heaping order to boot. The tortillas were some of the best I've ever had in my life (seriously, asked if we could buy some to go)!! We thought perhaps they werehouse made. Light and flaky with the perfect amount of crisp. The grilled chicken was tender and perfectly seasoned. The beans were flavorful and plentiful. And the cheese dipping sauce that they brought for Mom was really tasty. For dessert, mom had a beautiful piece of seemingly homemade rhubarb pie with a fresh scoop of vanilla ice cream. She was in heaven. Meanwhile, our waiter could not have been more outgoing, friendly, accommodating, and helpful. We saw a lot of Osprey flying overhead from the window and he told us all about the Eagles that frequent the area during certain times of year. All in all, it was a terrific experience. Highly recommend for a casual, quality dining experience. Don't let the room deter you. read more

We came here last year and had a wonderful time, every meal was on point and the menu was great as well as the ambiance. The prices were high but reasonable for a resort and the quality reflected this. This year we returned and our anticipation was met with sore disappointment. The menu has been cut back from an already limited selection, to a mere 7 dishes with which you must pay for bread, salad, and dessert whether you desire such additions or not. The quiet ambiance has been swapped for loud blue and yellow colors and printer paper menus made poorly on Canva with a large tacky logo attached. No appetizers, no cocktails, it begs the question as to whether or not their liquor license was revoked. The menu options which used to be populated with venison, wild boar sausage, and shrimp, has now been replaced with pork loin, chicken breast, and other unappetizing and uninteresting options. This downgrade has come with the same exorbitant prices. We ordered burgers because nothing else looked appetizing. We were served rye Sandwich bread with diner butter and no plates, a sad Caesar salad, and after our decent (but $25) burgers, a pecan pie on a frozen grocery store crust. Our waitress was very nice. My sister and father both got sick after dinner and my sitter got sick again after eating her leftovers, confirming that the burgers or fries from Overlook were the culprit. It is really sad to see one of our favorite spots become an establishment we dread returning to. I'm not sure if there is new management or a new chef, but we really hope this place gets back on its feet and back to the quality we enjoyed last year. For now, we'll be going into town for meals at Canyon of the Eagles. read more

We were seated at an outside table with an umbrella to deal with the sun and amazing view of Hill country in full Bloom. Launch kept up with a view, we had a terrific salad that was fresh and covered with an ample quantity of fresh grilled shrimp. We also had the very best corn beef Reuben outside of New York with fresh, thick, sliced corn beef, lots of sauerkraut, and Russian dressing. It was terrific. The never-ending iced tea and water topped off the excellent service, but is as good as it was. The view is the best part. read more

Dinner was average priced for a resort $15-30. But depending on what you ordered varied on whether you would think it was worth it or not. Oven Pizza...under cooked! Crisp crust, decent toppings but the center wasn't cooked long enough. They fixed it, but it's annoying to send food back when you're dining with a group. Smoked Chicken...5 stars! Smelled amazing! Tasted amazing! Looked good! I definitely recommend. Shrimp tacos...oddly something about these tacos was Sweet. Maybe it was the slaw, maybe something else. Either way, they Were Not Enjoyable! 3 people ordered these, and everyone complained about the same thing. The shrimp were big but the recipe was overly sweet. Margaritas & Wine pours were legit and on point! Everyone enjoyed these. Service was Excellent. She constantly kept up with our table, drinks were never too low and she was super friendly! read more

Because of Covid the resort was near empty. My wife and I walked up for dinner, had to have a reservation (2 tables were seated), they only had a waiter and one cook. Said they could work us in, in an hour. Came back, waiter was great, but warned us that the kitchen was slow getting food out. Not an exaggeration, took an hour and 10 minutes to get roasted chicken and potato crusted Cod. The chicken, and one of the two pieces of fish were over cooked to point they were difficult to cut. That's the bad. On the plus side, the herbed bread was great. The stuffing for the chicken and half the fish, were very good. The view of the lake is great. So much potential. Was disappointed in the outcome. read more

Disgusting, greasy, overpriced food that I wouldn't give to my dog. Sent the steak back twice and it was still overcooked. The second one wasn't even a ribeye. Fish tacos tasted foul. I didn't even order them but tried eatbthem after waiting an hour to get the wrong food. Save your hard earned money and eat any where else. read more

Based on the reviews and pictures, we hoped this would be the perfect place to eat after spending the weekend camping. However, we were incredibly disappointed. First, we had to walk a small, very uneven path to get to stairs for the patio, since we had our dog with us. The larger is issues, though: the service was awful and the food was mediocre. After taking our orders, our waiter literally never came back. We kept having to call over waitresses to get water refills; even when we asked where our waiter was, they kept making excuses for him, despite the fact that the indoor dining was practically empty. It took quite a while for our food to arrive--maybe forty minutes--and we immediately noticed some issues. Their French fries were small and completely soggy. Our Bloody Mary drinks were incredibly spicy, even though we ordered normal ones. Some of the food was cold. The only reason this is not a one-star review is because the manager, Tami, asked how our experience was, and we were honest. She did get us more fries (which were small and VERY greasy), but she was very kind. All in all, it was a pretty disappointing experience. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]After looking at the pictures here on Yelp and Facebook, I expected table cloths and a little nicer ambiance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I felt like our arrival surprised them, even though we had a reservation. We had Sunday brunch and while all of the food had great flavor and seasonings, everything was cold. The staff could not have been friendlier or more attentive. We will definitely give this place another try and hope that a dinner timeframe will prove to be a little nicer. I'd highly recommend they invest a few bucks into glass champagne flutes instead of plastic beer cups for the mimosas. read more

Had a dinner reservation for 7 @5 for our son's graduation. Ordered drinks at the bar and they were great. We were the only ones in the restaurant at that time. The pork rinds and pimento cheese was excellent! Our dinner did not come out until 6:05. Food was cold, daughter asked for chicken on her salad got shrimp instead. Fast forward 6/17. The hubby and I decided to come have drinks and dinner. Reservation@7:45. Bar was great! Our waitress was great. Food came out super slow but good. Went back to bar to get another drink. Poor bartender had to walk across to run credit cards because her machine wasn't working. Lots of back and forth with patrons waiting to be served since she was the only bartender. She needs some help or fix the computer system. read more

Went for my nephew's birthday. Food was terrible, WAY overpriced. Thought it would be a nice experience for a special occasion. Was sorely disappointed. We were the last people served in the restaurant. Were told that our orders were put in at the same time as another table who came in after us. Yet everyone else was served before us. I ordered the parmesan chicken sandwich. Very dry. My mom and sister ordered the shrimp tacos which were way overpriced for 2 small tacos. The appetizer we ordered never came. Waitress said she forgot to put in the order. Honestly, felt my family and I were discriminated against because we were the only minorities in the place and we were served last. Spent so much money for poor service and subpar food. We regret going there and nephew's birthday celebration was ruined. We'll never be back. I don't recommend going here, minority or not. Sad sad experience. read more

Arrive at 7pm. They close at 8 (on Sunday when I went), and the sun sets right around 8z I visited The Overlook last weekend by myself in hopes of finding a really good spot to replace On the Rocks, which has closed recently. I wasn't disappointed, and I will be eating here more often. Now to the review, the good and the needs work. This was my first time here. I drove out because I called on a Sunday and they didn't answer, but Google said they should be open. So 30 mins later I'm driving up the long driveway. Signs weren't super helpful inside the park (it's situated inside the park), but I quickly figured it out. When I arrived I had to walk in a little ways as it's a part of a park/resort with cabins and a gift shop area. Once I got inside I ended up meeting Steven (awesome guy will explain shortly). The place was mostly empty except for a few larger parties inside. The outside is why I came, so regardless of the heat I went outside. Steven explained he was he bartender and that everyone had called in... it was just him and the cook. I told him I was totally fine and just get me whenever. Regardless of the workload I still think he handled me better than 75% of the wait staff I've encounter, which include a lot of higher end Landry's staff. So I was completely normal when the food came out 30 or so mins later. So the service was on point, what about everything else? The Food: *House Salad w/ a Cilantro Lime Vinaigrette - The dressing was a bit thick, but it was a decent salad. I would have liked to see it thinned our slightly, and maybe not as sweet. *Ribeye Steak, Mashed Potatoes, and Corn on the Cob - This is where I am going to critique. The steak butter was what seemed like Chipotle Lime, which didn't really sit well on the steak. The steak really just needed to be salted, peppered slightly, and I definitely think they should up the game on their cuts (precut with a butcher), and then salted, marinated if needed, and then cooked properly with a standard plain steak butter on the side (not on the steak). The mashed potatoes were in need of garlic or salt, and they really needed more mashing. The corn I wasn't interested in on the cob. If it had been husk grilled and then cut off in sheets that would be been interesting. I paired it with a Jacobs Creek Shiraz (can't go wrong w that, but I would have liked some possible recommendations considering he was the bartender). Dessert I just needed a pallet cleanser from the steak butter... so Vanilla Bean Scoop and I was good. I'll definitely go more often now, but I wanted to try everything exactly the way it was prepped. I will just modify based on what I want and the bar will go way up because of that. Updated 8/12 I waited a few Sunday's and came back at the same time since it had been a rough week. I asked for the same meal, but I changed up the requests on how the dish was prepared. The result was night and day. I'm glad I made the adjustments, and I still have some critiques, but the overall dish was greatly improved. So into the meal. What stayed the same, and what changed to make such a drastic difference. House Salad - Swapped to a Ranch Dressing (I had no idea the Ranch would be house made... awesome.) Ribeye Steak, Mashed Potatoes, and a Welcome Change - I omitted the regular steak butter completely, asked them to season it w salt and pepper properly with regular butter slightly melted on the side. Add the extra char to the top, and I asked for medium. (The steak definitely had flavor, but still wasn't salted and rested enough. The add of salt and pepper with regular butter was enough to do the job of calling it the best steak in Burnet. I still have to add that the cuts, the seasoning, and the tenderizing needed work. I really wish they would pick up a Filet or a NY Strip. They would definitely handle better in the kitchen.) (The Mashed Potatoes were much more towards a whipped, which was at least 50% better. Some Garlic would have added some flavor, but I was good with it.) (The Welcome Change - A vegetable slaw that was slightly al dente, which added a nice texture to the savory smoked flavor profile. This was my favorite part of the dish and I could have just eaten a bowl of it.) Dessert - A Key Lime Cheesecake with what seemed like White Chocolate and Raspberry Purée. I finished it all... and I was happy about it . The Wine: A California Cabernet from Grayson Cellars. I let it warm up and it went well with the steak. The Shiraz would have been a little much. Updated 8/18 I went back... and ended up on the 14th/Wednesday. I had the same House Salad with the House Ranch (perfect). I think they prepped it differently (tomatoes were mixed green/red which gave it an alternating flavor from ripe to a little less sweet, which worked well). Grilled Chicken, with Seasoned Veggies - This was spot on. The base on the chicken and how the finish was handled add read more

Not that great and ridiculously expensive. Very plain decor and dining room. Doubt we'd go back but def wouldn't recommend.

Really fun restaurant. Chef Jesse came out to meet us after our meal and even made us a special salad dressing. Staff was friendly and we got to walk around the grounds after which was very pretty. The bar is separate, in a super cute building too. I will definitely come back, great date night location for that area! We liked the beef carpaccio, mozzarella sticks and rib eye. read more

We've eaten here a few times since moving close by over a dozen years ago...beautiful restaurant... but last night's supper had the BEST seasoned cajun crabcakes, just perfection (native of the Gulf Coast, always on the lookout for great crabcakes).. ! Then I tasted my husband's pan-seared potato crusted black cod, soft and beautifully cooked, served over greens with bacon and garlic and a citrusy beurre blanc, and omyGOD! Had to ask the chef's name, thank-you's now to Matthew... Yep, we'll be back, and thank you also for careful distancing and a very attentive, thoughtful waitstaff. read more

The Overlook Restaurant - Pan-seared potato crusted black cod... had to search for a photo, but it was cooked like this, and SO excellent! - New American Near Me - Burnet, Texas

Our party gives The Overlook Restaurant 5 Eagles. This restaurant is located in the mountain Canyon if the Eagles. Beautiful place. Our party of four --first course ordered the pumpkin bisque which was delicious. I ordered the potato crusted cod over spinach. The potato was fried crispy, the fish was very fresh and with the sauce was a wonderful combination. We also ordered the homemade chicken pot pie and as the saying goes it was so good you'd want to slap your grandma. Lol. Lastly the wine list has really great choices of California wines which is my favorite but I would recommend the chef expand the list with more Texas wines. There's some awesome Texas wineries in the area that would be happy to oblige. read more

Wonderful cod on a bed of spinach/bacon with lemon sauce. Also, delighted by the blackened catfish with crab sauce. Elegant dinner overlooking the sunset ! Fabulous Bloody Mary!! read more

We had a reservation for 8, there was only one waitress, so service was slow. This wouldn't have been that much of an issue if the food had been good, but it was not great for the price. 2 of us had the grilled fish, it was terribly dry, I asked if they had a sauce to dip it in and they did not. One of us got a pizza that cost $19 and it was basically a frozen pizza. A couple got burgers which they said were not too bad. There was also an over cooked steak. I rarely write reviews but our bill was $255, the was not worth it at all!! We also did not get a salad we ordered. I would not advise spending money on this experience. read more

Very nice spot! Lots of bluebonnets and the location is very nice. Food was ok. We had shrimp tacos and fettuccini Alfredo. Shrimp tacos were pretty good, but not exceptional. Everything was over priced. Cocktails were not great and also overpriced. Service was mediocre. read more

We had reservations to celebrate my husbands 40th birthday. When we showed up, we waited for over 10 minutes before being shown to our table. The staff told us they were under-staffed making excuses for their horrible service and long wait times. The food was ok - nothing to write home about. For my hubby's milestone birthday (which was noted in my reservation) he was offered only two possible desserts, both with chocolate of which he doesn't eat. What a horrible birthday dining experience?! Two stars for a good pepita goat cheese salad and hard-working F&B Director. Mathew, the F&B Director was awesome in trying to rectify our experience. read more

Excellent unique dishes that are a true treat out in this area. The menu is not your typical American dining. They serve some borderline fine dining food. It is clear they have a good chef. I do like their menu, but it would be nice to have a few more conventional options for those looking to eat on a slightly more frugal budget. The prices are on the high side, which may be hard to swallow for some. Same goes for the beer, especially since it is bottled, and they do not offer draft. They do have a few craft options, but again only bottled. Make sure you go on the weekend as the service is underwhelming during the week in off peak times. Also, Steven is a great server and goes above and beyond at his job. Definitely recommend this place to anyone in the area or looking for something nice to experience on a weekend. read more

Came here with my grandparents, and really wanted to love it. The views and resort are beautiful, but the food is disappointing and the restaurant staff are rude and unhygienic. When my grandmother found hair in her food, our waitress was no where to be found and we had to flag down another staff member. Our waitress never apologized or even addressed what had happened. Earlier she had argued with my grandmother over their offering of pickled onions, insisting it was a "typo" and meant to read sautéed onions (how does one misspell sautéed as pickled?). The mistake itself was not the issue, but her response was aggressively defensive which was completely unnecessary. The food without hair was not tasty and certainly not worth the prices. When we tried to bring concerns to the apparent manager, we were met again with aggressive defensiveness and excuses. I never leave bad reviews, I have worked in the service industry many years so I usually can sympathize, but the issues here were not because they were overwhelmed or anything like that. I understand how hard it is to be a server today but we came in happy and accommodating, excited for our meal. Sadly it was not worth the drive or the price. read more

We arrived when there was one other couple there for breakfast. We ordered omelets, one side of sausage and juice. It took 45 minutes for the omelets to arrive. We had to ask about the sausage and the waitress said she would remind the cook. There were no condiments on the table (Covid-19 rules?) so we asked for butter, jelly, salt, pepper, and ketchup, which the waitress doled out a few packages at a time. The food was good but with the long wait and service that poor, it is not worth the drive just to have a meal there. read more

Shockingly good food and super friendly wait staff. Prices are fair given how remote the place is. Amazing views.

Wonderful! On the cold and rainy November night my girlfriend and I visited the Overlook, the server (shoutout to Steven) treated us like royalty and the chef served up an amazing meal! We had the crab cakes for starters and the steak and chicken fried boar for mains. For dessert, we shared a flourless chocolate torte with vanilla ice cream and hot coffee on the side. Everything we had that night was scrumptious and the service was timely and excellent. Would go back for sure. read more

The overlook was nice on the inside but the customer service/food itself left me disappointed. I got the canyon chicken, a little too salty it felt as if soy sauce was poured all over. The waitress was rude and hardly checked on my table to see if we needed anything in fact I had to wave her down for the check. read more

Very nice. I took my boyfriend for his birthday and they were very kind although it was later in the evening when we went. I would suggest going before dark as the view is lovely until it is dark and you can't see out the windows. read more

The only thing good here is the view . Ordered soup of the day which should have been broccoli and cheese soup but came out to be some type of green purée or baby food looking stuff with NO flavor. Had to ask for crackers and they were just saltines. Wife had an over priced salad that was well salad. Nothing special. They don't have sweet tea either. I asked for sweet tea Dan the idiot waiter said they only have "ice tea". read more

Beautiful view! We sat outside & weather was perfect! White plastic chairs could have been a bit nicer. Inside restaurant was beautiful. Our server, Cora W, was super nice! We really enjoyed visiting with her! She recommended the Robert Mondovi Chardonney & she was right, it was great! I did feel guilty about not ordering the TX wine, since we just did the Vanishing River Cruise &TX winery was pointed out to us (but not that guilty or I would have ordered - ha!) Hubby ordered Beef Tenderloin & was just ok. Had a good taste, but not the most tender. Garlic mashed potatoes were good! He gave me his asparagus (as he doesn't like asparagus!) It was good, but a tad bland. I ordered the Canyon Wedge Salad, & it was good. Cora recommended House-pulled and Breaded Mozzarella flash-fried and served with Marinara Sauce. I'll try next time (& another dish I saw) next time we are in area! We got there around 4:15 pm & they didn't open until 5 pm. They let us sit outside, enjoy scenery & order a glass of wine, water & tea until they opened. read more

The service was horrible. The waitress broke our cork in our wine, the buffet was not fresh, the waitress was not familiar with the menu and seemed to struggle with the tasks at hand. The food was generic at best. My steak was undercooked and had to be re-cooked. It was very overpriced for the level of quality. The best part of the meal was the red wine and Alexandra, who went above and beyond the rest. Love the canyon, hate the restaurant! read more

I'm giving this 3 stars because we really didn't have the opportunity to eat at the Overlook since it didn't open until 5pm. My family and I (8 total) had spent the day on the lake & were starving around 3:30pm, so we docked & climbed up the trail from the lake to the restaurant to have a nice lunch by the water. When we walked in there were people setting up chafing dishes that looked to be for a buffet. To our disappointment there was a lady there who informed us that the restaurant didn't actually open until 5pm. She said we could walk over to the bar and have appetizers....we had 4 starving children with us so we weren't going to take them into a bar to have appetizers for an hour and a half until the restaurant opened. I'm not sure if these are normal everyday hours, but it was very disappointing. To make things worse on the way back down my 5 year old slipped on one of the many unstable rocks along the trail & cut his leg up pretty bad. We ended up eating at the little convenience store near the dock. They were out of family size pizzas so we had to purchase 6 "personal" size pizzas (which were a little bigger than your typical personal size pizzas). 6 pizzas & 8 (16oz) sodas came out to $119.xx The lady in charge was super nice & kept apologizing for sending us up the hill to a closed restaurant but it was nice eating on the porch & the pizza wasn't bad either. We won't be stopping here again though. If pizza was $119 I don't want to even think what we'd pay at the restaurant for real food. read more
