    Cherry limeade
    Shannon G.

    Had a cocktail with a friend. Sat at the bar. It was so hot even with the fans on. I was sticking to the chair. Everything was opened up to the heat outside. So it's just circulating hot air. Unfortunately we didn't stay too long. Really looking for places to escape the heat. Cocktail was good. Sweet, but not too sweet. I had the cherry limeade. And my friend had the espresso martini. The bartender said they changed the recipe a little. It was pretty good, as my friend let me sip a little. Couldn't sit outside to listen to the band. Bummer. Too hot. We did get food at Wahoo's. And I'll write a review for them.

    Great service with a lot of tv's. I always have a great experience there. Dog friendly place with plenty of room for your dog to run around.

    As a native Californian and new Texan, Wahoo's and Wakesurf Saloon were a pleasant reminder of home. The fish tacos were fried perfectly crispy and not greasy. Sauces are great. Varied menu, good prices, great atmosphere. Very friendly service, outdoor seating, and live music. Wonderful way to spend a Friday night.

    This was the best birthday celebration I can recall having in years. It was over 100 degrees…read moreoutside so we were a bit worried about our reservations on the lake and the tavern being a hot day, but that was totally unnecessary. My group was given two boats for a very roomy experience with canopies for lots of shade if desired (but these were pulled back at night to enjoy the stars), there was even shaded areas on the lake (if you want to sip a cocktail with the boat shading you) on a lillypad to float if desired. The lake breeze and the wind as the boats cruised make it completely cool both on the lake and on the floating tavern. A rental of time at Floating Tavern is completely an experience that feels like you are out of the United States. It is so exotic! They cater your day totally to what you want to do. Want jet skis? Fine. Want to go cliff diving? Fine. Want to just cruise the lake or take a trip with music? That works too. Just chill out sipping a cocktail on a lillypad or floating? Go for it. Once your water time and cruise time is completed, the real fun begins. With expert captains having given us a great lake tour, we pulled up to the floating tavern and that was just incredible. I brought electric candles for the table to level up the experience a bit but they did it all so well with or without them and it was so roomy even for our large group! They had dimmed lights for ambiance, a mixologist squeezing fresh juices for us for amazing drinks she made with the alcohol we brought, (their alcohol package may be easier next time as it is very affordable) and we had two chefs creating small bites for us hot and cooked right there on the tavern as the sun set and we were surrounded only by lake and stars, docked right there in the middle of the lake. The service was exemplary and far beyond our expectations of fun and being catered to. You can bring some of your own food too to make a full party if desired. The communication leading up to the event was exceptional and I'll be honest, I would much rather book this experience with friends a few times a year then ever buy a boat. It is the best lake experience and lake dining you will ever have and the hosts are a huge part of the fun of the day. True experts at what they do and we are a group of well traveled, well dined foodies (including two professional chefs) and we were completely wowed at our evening. It's the vibe that gets you. You will completely shake off all stress spending an evening this way!

    If you're in Austin and haven't been to Farmand's Kitchen yet, you're missing out. This place is…read moresuch a gem. It's family-owned, warm, and genuinely welcoming in a way that feels increasingly rare. From the moment you walk in, you can tell they care deeply about both the food and the people they're serving. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. You can taste the quality in every bite -- nothing feels rushed or phoned in. The portions are generous without being over the top, and everything we've tried has been full of authentic flavor and perfectly seasoned. It's the kind of meal where you're already planning what you'll order next time before you've even finished. And Gio? Truly outstanding. He strikes that perfect balance of attentive without hovering. He knows the menu inside and out, offers thoughtful recommendations, and makes you feel genuinely taken care of. You can tell he takes pride in what he does -- he's warm, personable, and elevates the entire experience. Service like that makes a difference, and Gio absolutely delivers. What really sets Farmand's apart is that combination of incredible food and heartfelt hospitality. Austin has no shortage of great restaurants, but Farmand's Kitchen stands out because it feels personal and intentional every single time. It's one of those places we recommend immediately when someone asks where they should eat -- and we'll absolutely keep coming back.

We didn't see a server for about 15 minutes and only a few people were in the restaurant. It was Noon on Friday... Hmmmm... BUT!!!!... once our pretty server got to us she was great. I was excited about the redfish sandwich, but for $22 it was very bland with hardly any seasonings or flavor. When you have to add salt and pepper that's not good. My friend had the scampi and that was better. That sourdough was awesome but it didn't need the butter spread.. because you could just sop up the scampi butter. I think over time this restaurant will do better.

    This place is honestly just a whole vibe. It feels like the neighborhood hangout--lots of people,…read moregood energy, and you can tell folks actually enjoy being there (not just eating and leaving). First thing I noticed? It's super clean and really comfortable. Like, the kind of place where you sit down and immediately think, "Yeah... I could stay here for a while." The ambiance is laid-back, cool, and just easy. Now let's talk food--because WOW. The tacos were packed with flavor and seriously delicious. No complaints there at all... I might've been a little too happy while eating them. I did get a skinny margarita, and I'm not gonna lie--it was good, but it showed up looking a little... shy. Smaller than I expected and a bit pricier than I would've liked. But hey, the food definitely made up for it, so I'll let it slide this time. And the staff? Super friendly across the board. The waiters, manager, bartenders--everyone was cool, welcoming, and just easy to talk to. Makes a big difference. Overall, I'd definitely recommend this spot. Great food, great people, great vibe... just maybe order two margaritas if you're feeling festive.

I was humble by the friendliness in this restaurant. I didn't sat and ordered a mango beer my absolute favorite. I ordered the schnitzel which is a German dish absolutely out of this world delicious and they even serve it with some lemon that you can squeeze on top that gives it the flavor and the delicious taste of the crispiness on the top of the breaded chicken. The one thing I wanna stress is as you know the chicken wings is my absolute Favorite because it's not overwhelmed wit With noisy overdone seasonings and tons of barbecue which I do not like. Services top-notch very attentive I'm humbled and happy within great service I received today. If there's ever a problem they'll correct it immediately with no hesitation.

    The League Tavern is a gastropub…read more "Gastropub". That word is so 2010's. A decade ago calling yourself a "gastropub" was the coolest thing in the hospitality industry. Now, it is a lost artifact of another decade, along with Swedish House Mafia and Britney Spears. The League calls itself a retro reminder of the eating clubs of the 1920's and 1930's. It is pretty damm good as a gastropub. It would not really want to be an eating club of the Prohibition era. Menus in that era could be pretty awful. Mashed parsnips. Liver and onions. Greens that have been cooked to death. Tough steaks. Low quality lager beer. The Indian Puddings were all right. The fish was great if it was fresh. I wish they would bring back Welsh Rarebit. But the League sticks to a contemporary menu ... And I am glad they do. Their contemporary dishes are just great. I had a faro salad with grilled shrimp on top. The faro salad was everything I would want a grain salad to be. (I have had some awful tabboulehs and quinoa salads in my time.) The shrimp were completely lovely. Prices are high - but that is what comes with being a gastropub. The concept is: Pay more. Eat higher quality. The Lakeway market will certainly support the League in the prices it wants to charge. The selection on the menu - and for that matter the selection at the bar - is fairly restricted. Having a small menu is not a necessary correlate of being a gastropub. Some gastropubs offer you an expansive range of choices. But careful management of the menu choices means that each and every dish can be polished to a high degree of execution finesse. Practice makes perfect. My guess is that the League envisions itself as a neighborhood place - albeit a rich neighborhood place. Their customers are likely to be regulars. The regulars order their favorite dishes over and over. I myself like my bars and grills to be Cheaper, Funkier and With bigger selections on the menu and at the bar itself. So the League is not exactly my style. But what they do, they do well. They are expanding, opening more branches in more locations. They can do this because the League fills a real need in the Lakeway-Bee Cave market. If a Lakeway resident were to invite me to be their guest at the League Tavern, I would be happy to accept that invitation. Especially if they were picking up the check.
