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!

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.

Three of us had arrived earlier and ordered already and our server came by to greet us two and take our drink order right away if we were ready. We were not so she gave us some time and came back. Throughout the night, she checked on us. At the end of the night, she offered to split all our checks and remembered everyone's orders and how to to accurately split the drinks. Each lady paid for an appetizer. The appetizers were all very good though I would say there are limited gluten free options. The girls shared the Tempura Cauliflower. It looked really good and apparently was also delicious but unfortunately not gluten free. The Charcuterie Board with cheese, salami, pepperoni, and smoked salmon was yummy, as were the brussel sprouts and chicken kabobs. The server said the marinade was not gluten free but I decided to eat it anyways. The chicken was juicy and seasoned well. I really liked the brussel sprouts too. The Dirty Martinis and Paper Plane were great. My friend had the Cucumber cocktail but opted for soda water instead of Sprite and she said it was really good. It looked pretty. The restaurant offers a nice vibe for hanging out and has a great selection of cocktails, wines, and food. I didn't get a chance to try an entree but I'm sure they are good. We had the best server so I'd say this place is a winner.

The bartender was very nice very cool and collective you have to be being bartender because you get rowdy people in there. I also ordered the crispy tacos they were to die for, they're really good that's why I like coming here it's got a very good sense of variety of tacos and all kinds of Mexican dishes that you would love including the rice and beans. The crispy tacos were nice crisp and also delicious that has a variety of Mexican seasonings that serves taco sauces that will enhance your taco. Also they put lots of cheese which I love in the tacos that they make here at taco flats. I love the service is always good they always combine and see if you're okay and doing well I ordered a glass of of red Tempranillo. A deep full body cherry tabacco., leather, vanilla and dark chocolate aged in oak barreled wine. So they don't have a high variety of wines but they do have some pretty good ones. The margaritas are really good here as well since I had them the last time I was in. Frankly it is very close to where I live and very convenient it's off 620 and they have plenty of parking for handicapped and very easy to get to with no stairs. Just so you know this is one of my hangouts I love coming here the people here are really nice. Until next time, Happy yelping!!

I was the only person in the place and the server took my,to go order, then disappeared to the kitchen not to return. No offer of a drink while I wait or a "how's your day going". Finally I get my order home, nothing is labeled and one salsa for four tacos. What is happening to our world, have we forgotten how to serve people? It seems like Taco Flats has and it's no wonder why I was the only person in the restaurant at 6 pm. Could be the greatest taco in the world, but the experience was not worth my hard earned $40.

So I watched while I was sitting waiting for my menu and drink list. So a plant bingo is where you can pay $20 and play bingo on Mondays. So I'm not clear on that so don't quote me I just know that I witnessed that tonight. So my menu and bar list was handed to me, And I decided to order the Cabernet sauvignon Greenwich. It's a full-bodied wine that's really good if you like those types of grapes. Everything was loud and alive a lot of people happy here so put you in a happy vibe mood. I ordered the Shrimp Tacos, with pineapple best type of match. It was full of tropical flavors seasoned lightly not over spiced. I was so humbled to the fact that the food was so good and the chicken wings that I ordered that I always ordered is absolutely my favorite. My order was taken wrong in the beginning where it was plain chicken wings, But I received the barbecue chicken wings which was the wrong order. No worries they corrected that immediately. Wait time was not as long as I thought it would be very happy that I showed up tonight. I strongly advise you try this restaurant especially the 1 off 620. They have it amazing menu and they do have a great list but not as extensive as others. I would say it's pretty much a basic list of drinks to order. Of course they do carry specialty drinks as well. Give it a try I don't think you'll be disappointed!

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.

I placed macaroni and cheese and brussels sprouts in the cart. Placed the order. I got a text message and an email of my recipe. 11 minutes later I got a text saying that it was ready to pick up. I walked in to the restaurant. It wasn't very busy. I waited not even a minute when a nice women came up to me. She asked if I was picking up an order. I said yes. And said my name, I was trying to get to my text message with my receipt, she already had my bag and was walking back to me. Super quick service. By the time I got home, Urg, traffic on 620, seriously!! The food was warm/hot, so I heated it up for a couple minutes in the toaster oven. The macaroni is actually big shells, and I love that cause the cheese gets inside of the shell and it's cheesy gooey. Cheese was fantastic. Really enjoyed the Mac. Brussels sprouts I feel were just steamed. They didn't have that chard crispy outside. Just plan steamed sprouts. My small meal was delicious. Hoping to actually eat inside and have a cocktail.
