Vietnamese Mushroom Rice Bowl
Karson S.

Finally got to dine in here rather than just stopping by the window for a drink. I know their matcha is great (especially if you add honey and a little cinnamon + salt), but WOW their food is good too. Everything they brought out was excellent. The Vietnamese rice bowl was excellent and fresh and definitely sharable with its size. Drinks were great, and the inside is very cool with the AC while the patio is breezy (until it gets to about 11am in the middle of summer). Server was SO NICE!! We were here with my friend who is a bride, and we got a gluten free (she's gluten free) banana bread at the end of our meal. WOW we will think about those candies nuts forever!

Steak Au Poivre
Karen S.

We had a party of 7 for a bachelorette party and to make a reservation for that many you need to email them. It was a pretty easy process. Arriving at the restaurant I can understand why you have to reach out to make a larger party reservation. The restaurant has a intimate feel with smaller tables. It's very cute and I love that they have a coffee shop that you can order from the outside as well. All the food was so delicious. I ordered the steak au poivre and the steak was cooked perfectly. The fries was so much more than I expected it was seasoned very well and there was so much, I could share with the rest of the party. With the bachelorette party, they gave us the banana walnut bread. Don't think of a typical banana bread, it was more cake like andvery moist and gooey. It was topped with espresso marcapone that tasted like it was whipped and went so well with the bread. Strongly recommend getting this dessert.

Banana bread martini

Two Hands delivered an exceptional dining experience, making it the perfect spot for a pre-concert meal. Thanks to their efficient reservation system, we were seated promptly and easily made our show on time. The drink and food menu exceeded expectations: 1) Banana Bread Martini was absolutely delicious and a standout cocktail. Happy Hour Burger was a generous portion size and very tasty. The captiva pasta was a huge hit with my daughter. Everything we tasted was remarkably fresh and packed with flavor. Beyond the great food, the service truly elevated the visit. Our waiter was warm, engaging, and genuinely enjoyable to interact with throughout the meal. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for great vibes, wonderful service, and delicious food.

Vietnamese Mushroom Rice Bowl
Jennifer B.

The flavors of fresh cabbage that was pickled along with the tangy, cucumbers and mushrooms and sesame seeds were everything that made it freshly delicious. The fresh and warm sticky rice at the bottom of the bowl, was a great combination. This is something I would absolutely want to order again. Sat the bar, the place is a little small but service was quick

Two Hander Burger & 5 oz Seared Range Montana Wagyu Steak
Andy D.

Treated myself out for dinner and glad I chose Two Hands. I contemplated on getting the Steak and Frites ($35) but ended up getting the Two Hander Burger (Double Cheeseburger with fries for $20) and 5 oz Steak ($15). Basically paid for the price of the Steak and Frites Combo, but got a bit more variety. The double cheeseburger was delicious. The patty was a good portion. Not too thick but enough to make you full. I enjoyed the petite size of the French fries, they were nice and crispy. The steak was absolutely amazing, and melted in my mouth. I highly recommend the side order of the 5 oz seared range Montana wagyu steak. It was absolutely worth it. Friendly service and relaxing vibes. I'll be back, give them a try!

Big Brekky breakfast
James K.

First time and probably last time. Came in early on a Monday and they weren't very busy. Despite that, and three people at the reception, seemingly had to wait forever to speak to someone. One person working the reception was dealing with a customer. Totally get that. But the other two were just engaged in conversation and didn't seem to want to be bothered with a customer. Finally when we were addressed, they did bring us to a table and going forward, the server was quite attentive. My biggest disappointment is with the food. I have seen so many photos and I just wish my food would have come out as appetizing as the food I have seen in the photos. I think this place has a stronger emphasis on drinks I guess in hopes you won't notice the poor quality of the food. The menu was surprisingly very limited. I was just hoping for some eggs and toast but you don't have any option to create your own; I seemed limited to having eggs with fennel or feta and pesto and others that I have no interest in. I ended up ordering the "Big Brekky" and ordered the eggs fried. It comes with roasted tomato which I did not want and asked if I could do the roasted mushrooms instead. The meal comes with "sourdough" toast and their "Two Hands" hash browns. They put far too many herbs in the hash; I had a bite and the herb flavors were so overwhelming, I couldn't even taste the potato. I only had the one bit and didn't eat anymore. It didn't taste fresh; it seemed more like something they have it prepared long ahead of time and just warm it up. The bread while good... is NOT sourdough. If they think this is sourdough, someone needs to go back to school. And the eggs... I did order them fried, but these were beyond fried. The yolk was completely hard and I've never had a fried egg this overly cooked. And the meal came with a side of something they call "jam". I don't know what berries these are, but they are just in a pool of some type of syrup. Not sure what they think "jam" is, but this isn't. Overall, I ate the toast, had a bite of the hash browns and the eggs are so dried out, they were tasteless. And the "roasted mushrooms" were more mush than anything. Again, had a bite but couldn't eat more than that. This is one of those places where it's more about drinking than the food. There are too many other amazing breakfast places nearby to frequent this establishment. Again, don't be fooled by all the photos. Lastly, very expensive. I expect much more when spending $25 per person for breakfast. Again, too many other great options for really delicious food. Last thing, the music in this place is far too loud to have a decent conversation.

Steak & Egg
Airon A.

Visited Two Hands on Congress for weekend brunch. It is an Australian restaurant known for fresh, delicious food, cocktails, and coffee. Parking is challenging as there are only paid parking options. The restaurant was very busy and it was an hour wait to be seated at a table. We were added to the wait list and of course my cell phone battery died so could not be notified. The host was understanding that I kept following up. The wait was a bit long due to weather preventing outdoor seating. They have both indoor and outdoor seating options. We were seated in the indoor dining area. The ambiance is very lively and bright for a happy vibe. Our sever was very friendly and attentive and happy to offer recommendations about the menu options. Started out with The Calm Before the Storm cocktail with smoky mezcal with bright grapefruit and lime, softened by chamomile syrup and a subtle bitters finish. Had a Smokey flavor profile that was still refreshing and complemented my meal. I ended up seeing another cocktail that looked appealing so I ordered the Paloma as well that was citrusy with fresh grapefruit slices. For food, the Breakfast Burrito was packed and flavorful with fluffy scrambled eggs, crispy hash browns, mushrooms, avocado, jalapeño, and melty cheese. The tomatillo sauce tied everything together perfectly with just the right amount of tang. The standout for me was the Steak & Egg. The seared Wagyu steak was tender and cooked beautifully, paired with a crispy hash brown and sunny egg that made every bite rich and satisfying. Even the mixed greens with anchovy dressing felt elevated instead of like an afterthought. Great atmosphere for brunch, quality ingredients, and cocktails that actually feel creative. Definitely will return for brunch at some point as the experience exceeded my expectations.

Main diner area

Super cute inviting diner/cafe. They have light delicate cocktails that pair perfectly with their lighter fare. I really liked that it wasn't a huge and heavy menu. The sandwich was just a really well made basic sandwich. Nothing fancy. So a little pricey but also nice that it's smaller portions and seems to use really fresh ingredients.

Takeaway coffee bar and casual sit-down restaurant. The coffee bar is not necessarily my all time favorite but it was fine. I really enjoyed their restaurant though ! Both indoors and outdoors are pleasant. Their kale bowl with chicken was fantastic. Flavor, price, portion size, and freshness were all great ! If you are familiar with Great White in Los Angeles, this reminded me very much of it ... staff were kind and had a good sense of humor too. They also make a solid martini. Would recommend !

Breakfast Burrito
Kristen A.

Came here for brunch and I got the breakfast burrito while my friend got the burger and fries. Both dishes were amazing, and our server was so nice. This was a nice area to have a bite and then walk around. I will definitely be back!

Went for happy hour and got super delicious drinks! Not busy and waitress was super attentive! The inside is adorable and would be so fun for a dinner! Our waitress also gave us amazing recs for food!

Big Brekky
Elle K.

Had a great brunch experience here, though pricey. Came on a Saturday morning around noon and put our name down for a group of 5 and was sat in around 45 minutes! I thought that was pretty quick for how busy they were. They also have a side window where you can order coffee, smoothies and tacos while you wait. I got the banana smoothie and it was great! Beware though they told me the smoothies take a while to come out and it did but the coffees were coming out super fast. We were sat on the beautiful patio on a nice day and inside is really pretty too. They keep the patio doors open, so it all feels connected. To drink, I had the banana bread espresso martini. It was alright, didn't taste much like banana bread to me. Probably wouldn't order again but was fun to try. To eat, I had the big brekky plate and it was a very good basic breakfast plate but elevated. The scrambled egg was cooked so wonderfully and presentation 10/10. It looked like it hadn't been cooked all the way but there were no runny bits when eating it. The hash brown had a ton of flavor, almost too much seasoning, but it was good. The jam and butter with the toast were a good sweet compared to all the other salty items. I will say the menu is pretty pricey but the ambiance and elevated food presentation I think are worth it. It is pretty good portions too. A great spot to bring friends or family in town for a pretty day brunch or a meal with the girls!

Iced Oat Milk Latte
Claire H.

I've always wanted to go to the coffee window on SoCo!! I finally got to go. I ordered an iced oat milk latte with spiced brown sugar syrup ~ Yum! This syrup wasn't too sweet and it was so flavorful. It was delicious and I would definitely order it again. The barista was friendly and efficient! The window is so cute & there are lots of places to work outside :)

It is very very very dark in there so it's super intimate and features candles and mini tap light lamps. If you have sight or mobility issues, you may not like this venue from a safety standpoint. Steep incline stairs lead down to this dungeon like hold. I would return in a heartbeat. Must have the password. Exclusive and decadent is the mood. So if it matches you, you have to visit!

Powder Room is a speakeasy lounge tucked behind the "kitchen doors" of Manny's Sandwich Shop, and…read moreit did not disappoint! We came on a Thursday evening with a reservation for 7. Once we walked through Manny's, we were greeted right away and since we had a reservation, we were seated promptly. Quick heads up: cell phones aren't allowed inside -- they take your phone and give you a key to a locker where it's stored for the night. The idea is to keep everyone present and engaged with each other instead of their screens (they do make exceptions for emergencies or on-call situations, at the business's discretion). I actually love the reasoning behind it, even though I wished I had my phone to snap pictures of the inside! The space itself is dark and moody with major art deco Miami vibes, like something out of the 80s-90s. Think pink velvet draped everywhere, a life-size taxidermy leopard in the middle of the bar, and flamingo sculptures scattered throughout. It's gorgeous. There's plenty of seating between the booths/couches and the bar, and they seat you according to your party size. We got a plush half-circle booth with a table that fit all of us perfectly -- great sightlines too, so everyone could see and talk to each other easily. Each table gets an assigned server, and ours was fantastic. We ordered cocktails along with the yuca fries, empanadas, and quesadillas -- all delicious. I can't remember the name of my cocktail, but it was pink, gin-based, and so good, served in a beautiful tall stem glass. Loved everything about this place and will absolutely be back next time I'm in town!

Now, I…read moreknow that is late, but if it's too late for a reservation, you should not make it available for scheduling. The guy at the front was very nice, but as soon as we get to the "receptionist" the entire narrative changed. She looked my girlfriend and I up and down and then proceeded to tap multiple times on her IPad. She then says, "you know it's 1:30? we close at 2. we only have standing room." She had the most miserable scowl on her face. My girlfriend and I were dressed very nicely (pants & jacket, and a dress), so I know this was not a outfit issue. I do not know what her issue was, but if you are tired and don't like staying up late, don't work in a bar. After saying that there was only standing room, I decided that I was not going to spend money in an establishment that speaks to people in such a disgusting way, so I proceeded to leave. One of the guys out front asked what was wrong and asked if he could buy us a drink, but at that point I decided that I would not spend a dime at this place. Just giving a heads up! Lady at the front is EXTREMELY rude. Looking at the other 1 star reviews, it looks like this place has a reputation for being discriminatory.

My friend got one of their floral cocktails which wasn't discounted but I LOVED it personally. I also got a strawberry matcha drink (non alcoholic) that was a little too sweet in my opinion; I finished it but wouldn't get it again.
