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 an order online to pick up in the restaurant. The…read moreonline ordering was easy. I scrolled through the menu, added what I wanted to the cart. 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.

Have ordered wings from major pizza chain before and got pretty much what I expected-not so good…read more But it was game day and we wanted wings and this was the only place close. Yes, I did realize Wing Street is part of Pizza Hut, BUT I figured if they had a separate company name for their "wing division" surely they would be comparable to other wing joints. Nope. Super fatty and greasy, not to mention tiny. But the worst part was the "sauce" on each flavor of wing. We tried three (hot, lemon pepper, and garlic parm) and all had a funky kind of really processed food flavor, specifically fructose corn syrup. Every type of wing was overly sweet and a sticky stringing - not in a good way. Blaaahhhh! Yuck! Can someone please open a wing place in/around the Lakeway/Hudson Bend/Bee Cave area? I'd be willing to invest. At least at the level that I can promise I'll buy wings from you every Sunday during football season - that is, if they're any good. :) Until then I guess I'll be making the 16 miles trek to Cedar Park for some Wing Stop goodies. Oh, the side order of breadsticks were pretty good, so I wouldn't be against trying Pizza Hut pizza next time.

Move over Fresa's!! There's a new chick in town!…read more Not only are the ingredients fresh, you can taste the quality! We were shopping in Bee Cave and got hungry, so I went to Yelp to discover this cute little place. I did learn that they are mainly a "take away" model hence the play on words "picnic" on their name. But there are a few tables and bar counter that you can dine in. We ordered a bit of food- 1. Half roasted chicken 2. Hot wings 3. Roasted Beets 4. Kale side salad 5. Fun selection of NE brand beers! Yes they have wine and unique beer selection there! The roasted chicken was definitely brined- it was super juicy and the chimichurri and salsa complimented it wonderfully. It was explained to me the chicken were free range and how they are raised humanely, reminded me of an episode in a tv series- Portlandia that made me chuckle. The hot wings... Buffalo style but not like at Anchor Bar.. still amazing in its own right. Fresh (I mean there were zero dry spots on carrots and celery and it was crunchy fresh that even me, the non-celery lover- ate 4 sticks with their tasty homemade ranch sauce. (I think it was the ranch dressing bc I literally licked the bowl clean) The roasted beets were served cold with feta cheese crumbles, mint and pistachios. I could eat that by itself as a meal! Yummy! Now, I usually hate kale. Only like it roasted. But I can eat Chicknic's Kale side salad all day long. It contains roasted cauliflower, pickled red onion and a mountain of pumpkin and sunflower seeds! (Maybe that's why I like it so much??) All washed down with a brown ale beer you find in the NE. While we were dining, several people came by to pick up their to go orders and there is a fun freezer where they sell delicious take aways like chicken soup and their famous chicken pot pie, chicken crepes, chicken enchiladas... oh did I mention this is a great place if you're on a keto diet or gluten free restriction?!?? I also found if you follow their Facebook page, you can see new menu items or transparency of how they run their business. What you waiting for? Give this place a try and support local!

When a long time customer shares with you a concern that they have with your customer service,…read moregiving excuses for five minutes is not the correct way to handle it. You basically told me that you don't care that I wish you would answer your phone. However, using the excuse that you only have two people in the kitchen while you and another person sit at a table and ignore the phone ringing sealed that fact that you do not care about your customers. As always, the chicken had good flavor, but I cannot keep ignoring the dryness any longer. And with your lackadaisical attitude toward your customers, I am done. Not a single soul in the place, no to go orders waiting on the to go rack. Just sit there and ignore the phone.

Yes, if you want to get a burger somewhere, yea" you understand that you're not getting a real burger a lot of them are not real 'meat. This is definitely, real meat. The French fries was plentiful, I couldn't eat all of it. It had seasonings of a little bit of paprika Definitely perfect! The waitress that served me was very attentive and she made sure that I was a happy camper. She served me 2 rounds of Cola cola a Dr. Pepper which I have never had before. And of course I got the chicken wings my favorite they make the best here honestly and 2 other places that I am nuts about. It's also very dog friendly, where you can sit outside and enjoy a nice evening with your family and your pet. They do have some really good drinks as well for happy hour. But I didn't get happy hour this time around I will definitely, next time. So I definitely recommend this lovely spot off 620 in Lakeway. If you don't then you'll be missing quite a bit. Friendliest bar you'll love it!

So I got the mozzarella sticks instead. They were okay. The dinning area is nice. Their patio is epic. Really big, and the view is outstanding.

We wanted pretty views (which, of course, we got), decent food, and a drink after being so disappointed by the couple of restaurants at The Oasis area. What we were met with exceeded our hopes. First, service. Boon was our server and we loved him. He was upbeat and friendly, got us everything we asked for, and great at upselling drinks without being pushy. The boy who sat us and was bussing tables was sweet as well. Second, food and drink. The jerk chicken plate was enough food to have leftovers and full of flavor. My husband got the chicken and waffles and the chicken was fried to absolute perfection. They also included a honey cinnamon butter that would put roadhouse to shame. The Mexican martini was yummy and strong. Lastly, ambiance. The place is a dive, but not in a bad way. In a comforting way. Did I see a guy not wearing shoes? Allegedly! I didn't even care because the vibes were good. Everyone was as easy going as the alternative rock pumping from a radio speaker in the corner. This was the kind of place I'd love to be a regular at.
