The staff are kind, but busy so definitely make a reservation. Food came out pretty quickly and was tasty! We rate the burger 4.7/5, the pork shoulder hash 4/5, and the jammy egg 4/5. Our biggest takeaway away is that the portions are quite small. The burger did not come with sides and the jammy egg came with a singular egg. This may be typical for Austin, but the crowded atmosphere and the rushed staff encouraged more a diner atmosphere than a fine dining one. It felt confusing then if the hustle and bustle impersonal atmosphere equates to more fine dining take-your-time tapas style menu. I also wanted more laundromat or convenience store imagery from the decor if that's the story behind the restaurant. It felt like a missed opportunity to me. Parking was quite easy. There's a lot in the front that fits probably 20 cars and street parking around that's especially open on a Sunday. We may be back, but we'd probably opt for somewhere that committed to either diner atmosphere and diner portions or fine dining experience and fine dining price.

I'm surprised this place isn't always packed, as the food and atmosphere is fantastic. Never been disappointed in any way. The octopus was stellar, every bite a pleasure. Our crudo was fresh and bright. The hamburger was simple yet profound, executed perfectly. The drinks were quality and delicious. If you haven't been, GO!

You really can't go wrong with dessert either. While the Birthday Cake Ice Cream sandwich is my go-to, this time I decided to try the Coffee Mousse Tart, and it was just as delightful. Both desserts were perfectly balanced and not too sweet.

However, I quickly realized that ordering a variety of dishes to share is the best way to go. For the four of us, we selected hummus, carrots, Brussels sprouts, ribs, and chicken. The last three were outstanding, especially the Brussels sprouts—they might be the best I’ve ever tasted! Be sure to leave some space for dessert; we ordered four to share, and each one was fantastic. The service was also impressive. It's rare for my expectations to be exceeded like they were here. Be sure to add this restaurant to your must-visit list!
