    Quinoa salad
    William D.

    Chill vibe at this eatery below the retail store. We came just before lunch ended at 4 pm on a busy Friday afternoon in Fredericksburg. Our server Brock was super friendly and suggested we decide on our order quickly, so he could get it to the kitchen before the shift from lunch to dinner. Brock mentioned that the craft sandwiches were big,so we decided on splitting the Rueben. Started with the Mediterranean plate, house made hummus, ricotta, olive,Baba Ganoush,chibatta toasted,wow high quality stuff and enough to share. The creamy ricotta was unlike any I've tasted, rich and probably could have stopped there. But no. High quality pastrami piled high on toasted marble rye with brussel slaw,1000 island split with Mrs D it was one of the best rueben. Craft cocktail Beleni was peach and bubbles,and a Belgian Pilsner by Ayinger ,both really satisfying after hiking Enchanted Rock Park. Fun, eclectic store to browse after lunch. A good time.

    The delicious s'mores cookie...so big it was served with a knife (and warmed up)

    Amazing! Incredible! 100/10 stars!! Loved this place so much and so glad we came here for lunch. This was our first trip to Fredericksburg and I'm really happy we chose this place. We ordered the Mediterranean plate as an app and everything was so incredibly yummy! We were warned the sandwiches are large and they weren't kidding! We shared the club sandwich and WOW...whoever decided to add the apple butter is a genius! My mouth is watering just thinking about it! Side note-the bread they use is out of this world!!! Perfectly crunchy but also chewy...best of both worlds! We also had to try a cookie, the s'mores one to be exact, and it was equally amazing. Cannot recommend this place enough!

    This place is super cute. The seafood gumbo and burrata was great the special of the day was lasagna it was ok. Service was great till the end took forever to get out checks.

    Acceptable cookie

    On Wednesday, the soup was a beef and vegetable. I would have reduced the salt for my personal taste but it was a soup like one would find in any restaurant in France and perfectly fine.would love to have been here on Sunday to try their fried chicken. Today was grilled salmon day and Irene ordered it while I went with a Reuben to check out their bread. The Reuben was superb. One of the best that I've ever had. Just perfect. Salmon in a miso broth seemed smart as miso isn't strong enough a flavor profile to compete with and thus, ruin, the salmon flavor profile. I have a thing about chefs who garnish a salmon (or just about anything) with bitter micro greens cause it looks pretty (that you bite into and they ruin the other more subtle flavors). So miso seems a good choice as is white pepper for this dish. The pistachio tiramisu was "interesting ", but I wonder if they are using salted pistachios? If so, I note that this is a mistake. Switch to unsalted. Still, we did finish it between the two of us. But it was unpleasantly salty and I would recommend against it. Weird that the restaurant focuses on non local wines (Europe and California) when Fredericksburg is in the heart of the Texas wine country. Are they saying that the local wines suck? You'd think they'd try to find and champion the best of the locals instead of wines easily available elsewhere. A lot of times, when persons in the kitchen come from other cultures/countries, they may be trained to follow a recipe but may not necessarily have the culinary cultural map to know how to make minor adjustments before putting an entree out for consumption.

    A must when in Fredericksburg. Make a Resy. Get all the things! Go on Friday for the curry! Get a cookie to go!

    Cup of gumbo
    Jerra P.

    What a cool vibe this place has! To get there you need to walk into the store and then down some stairs to be seated at the restaurant. My husband and I shared the cup of gumbo and split the Rueben sandwich. The gumbo was incredible with a strong seafood flavor. The Rueben was probably the best one I've ever had. It had brussel kraut and a serious cheese pull with pastrami and incredible bread! The chips were crispy and delish. I was super surprised at how tasty the basic mixed green salad was. We came for lunch and will probably be back for dinner. It's just that good!

    Charcuterie board. Half meat half cheese.

    Great Bistro down stairs and has a great speak-easy vibe. Food was awesome and is well worth it.

    Fried chicken, quiche and chicken confit salad
    Carrie B.

    Vaudeville never disappoints! The crab and asparagus quiche was so rich and flavorful! And the fried chicken was crispy on the outside and moist inside. Service is always attentive and the music and low lighting make it feel special!

    Charcuterie with 3 cheese & 2 meats

    Outstanding experience! We love going here for never disappoints. The ambiance, service, drinks and food are amazing.

    My husband and I arrived 20 minutes early for our Saturday night reservation hoping to get a cocktail at the bar before dinner, unfortunately the hostess said that they "don't allow waiting at the bar". I took that to mean that the bar is also by reservation only, but we were a bit off put by that. We were seated shortly after our reservation time and from that point forward we had a 10/10 experience. The restaurant itself is very dimly lit and vibey, perfect for a date night. Based on reviews I was a little worried that you were required to order from the pre-fixe menu on Friday & Saturday nights no matter the size of your party but that turned out not to be the case. To start, we shared a margarita pizza which more closely resembled a regular cheese pizza but was absolutely delicious. For our mains I ordered the grilled veggie salad and added the confit chicken and my husband ordered the duck confit. Duck confit is one of his all time favorite dishes and this one ranked as one of the best ones he has ever had. He let me have *one* bite and it really was divine. Overall we were really impressed with the food and would certainly recommend Vaudeville to any friends going to Fredericksburg.

    Reuben on marbled bread with side salad and house made chips

    Location On main street, Fredericksburg-just a few blocks from Nimitz and pacific war museum Parking Street and nearby lots Atmosphere Classy gift shop, bistro restaurant. Restaurant seating is patio ( no heater) and downstairs Seating Patio( they brought extra chairs for a table) is cafe tables for 4, inside-bar, low tables-great for groups. Some booth seating along the wall. Service Outstanding Menu $$$ Appetizers, salads, sandwiches. Reuben was recommended by a customer-delish! Piked high! Not drippy. Served with side salad, house made chips, large portion. We had the chopped salad with fresh juicy chicken, capers, blackberries, strawberries, tomatoes, zucchini slices, side of lite vinaigrette-like a whole bag of spring mix and alfalfa sprouts on top. I toured the dessert counter-chocolate mousse, large cookies, cappuccino. Something for everyone! Daily specials!! Summary Centrally located historic bistro with generous fresh portions of fresh food. Loved every bite!! Outstanding service. ( I did not dress for such a cold snd windy day on the patio. If they had heaters the score would be 5 stars). Loved the shop and upstairs gallery.

    Went to Fredericksburg and the friends I was with spoke highly of Vaudeville. We were fortunate to get a reservation for later that day. Restaurant is downstairs from the store. Not a big place so I suggest a reservation. Everyone enjoyed their food. Sandwiches are large so suggest you split.

    Can I bring my own bottle of wine for a corkage fee?

    Is Vaudeville good for kids?

    Maybe not for younger kids. It is a small space and it's pretty quiet. But it would be fine for older kids.

    Hoping to dine on A Friday evening... Do we need a reservation? How? I'm looking on your website and see nothing of the sort. Thanks!

    They recommend a reservation. You can get on a waiting list but even that is booked up sometimes.

    Are you open for breakfast on weekends?

    They open at 11am for brunch. If you look at the menu pics on Yelp it will give you an idea of what options are available. Enjoy!

    Would you recommend a reservation for a party of five on a Saturday (lunch), or is walk-in pretty feasible?

    Normally lunch time is a good time to go. Best to make reservations and they will send you a text message.

    I genuinely wanted to like Nurys on Main. I really did. Hope springs eternal, especially in…read moreFredericksburg, where good food is usually a sure bet. Unfortunately, this experience felt less like a restaurant opening and more like a dress rehearsal no one stopped. First problem: location confusion. We went to what turned out to be their second spot--which, crucially, was not called Nurys on the sign. Same ownership, new space, old identity crisis. Walking in felt like entering a building that hadn't yet decided what it wanted to be when it grew up. The lingering aroma? A strange duet of fish, antiseptic, and industrial cleaning agents. Not hunger-inducing. More "urgent care with a fryer." There was no one there, which made sense--it was between brunch and lunch--but somehow the wait for food felt disproportionately long for what arrived. What arrived, sadly, was mediocrity wearing a Tex-Mex costume. They seemed to be aiming for Tex-Mex but landed somewhere closer to Tex-Flex--stretching flavors thin until they snapped. The barbacoa was fatty in a way that suggested less "slow-cooked tradition" and more "glistening regret." It didn't taste authentic, or even especially intentional. Just heavy. The guacamole--perhaps the most unforgivable offense--was bad. Guacamole is avocados, salt, lime, and love. That's it. This had none of the above. The waitstaff wasn't rude, exactly--just possessed by the clear energy of people who would prefer you to finish quickly so they could resume their real lives. Hospitality should feel like an invitation, not a countdown. Now, maybe the original Nurys is wonderful. I hope it is. But if that's the case, why open a second location only to phone it in? Expansion should mean excellence multiplied, not care divided. There are too many good places in Fredericksburg doing things right to settle for something half-hearted. This one wasn't terrible--it was worse. It was forgettable. And that's the real disappointment.

    I didn't care for it. We were a large party and sat immediately, which was nice, and the restaurant…read morewas calm and nearly empty for a Sunday but honestly, there's a reason it was so dead. Right away, the service felt off. Our waitress didn't even ask if we wanted drinks before jumping straight to, "Are you ready to order food?" Then she disappeared for long periods, even though we were basically her only table besides one other couple. The food was extremely underwhelming -- basic, barely warm, and nothing memorable. On top of that, there were so many flies inside that we were nonstop swatting them away. And to make matters worse, there was a bug in my drink when it was served to me. That was pretty much the final straw. Overall, a very forgettable and disappointing experience. We probably won't come again, and I would not recommend it.

They were pretty booked up but as it was cold outside they let us switch our reservation from patio to bar seating. We really enjoyed our meal. The waiters were very attentive and happy to talk through the menu with us. Ultimately we decided on a pretzel as our appetizer, with lamb chops as our entree to share and a side of kasespatzle. The pretzel was warm and a nice size and we thoroughly enjoyed the beer cheese. We finished the cheese halfway through the pretzel and the waiters were kind enough to bring us another one. Next for the kasespatzle - which from my understanding is the German version of mac and cheese. It was very tasty and hearty! More filling than I expected. The lamb chops were the crown jewel of the night - rich and succulent and paired so well with the asparagus. The chef was kind enough to make another lamb chop for us as she saw how the meat shrunk while cooking it. The meal was so tasty and a good size for sharing! We were very full by the end. I'm so glad we tried this place! It would be perfect for date night, a meeting with coworkers or family dinner. I like that they have an intimate inside area as well as the outdoor patio.

We also got the flatbread which was more like a crisp cracker and not at all what we expected. Loaded with arugula but not very good. We also had the pirogies which were really good. The duck was "good". Maybe cherry sauce on the side because it made it a little soggy. The pork schnitzel my daughter wouldn't eat. She thought it was with a cheese sauce which would have been better but it had a red tomato sauce on top and melted mozzarella. Why they put a pasta sauce on the schnitzel is a mystery. She took it to go then threw it out. Prices were high for what we received. Ambiance was nice.
