SaraSara: Bloody Mary and Trailer Park Benedict (Fritos pie with house chili, poached eggs, cheddar, and grilled onions) with a side of cheesy grits can't be beat. Mimosas leave a little bit to be desired.

Anna C.Anna Curran: Some others say that the trout is the best. We agree its great, but don't forget the jalapeño cheddar grits and the Dr. Pepper chicken- not to miss. Here, it's way too hard to save room for dessert.

Ike C.Ike Coronis: Great drinks, really good food. The green chili cheese grits were my favorite of everything we had.

Liz B.Liz Brunner: Started off w/the popcorn (delish). I got the pork chop which was juicy. If you have anything at this place - try to green chile cheese grits. You will thank your taste buds later!

Austin ChronicleAustin Chronicle: Chef Ray Tatum's porkalicious sliders and crackling meatloaf are sublime, as is his Asian fried chicken. Get a pairing suggestion from neighboring East End Wines and enjoy dining on the lovely patio.

JoeJoe: The redfish is delicious! By far one of my favorites.

David S.David Self: Great location to grab a bite and go for a nice walk/run around the walking trail. Downsides: that only open at 8am!

Brittany P.Brittany Pereira: They fill growlers!!! And you don't even have to buy theirs! So bring over a growler and for $7.99-$12.99 you get 64oz of Texas beers.

Carolee M.Carolee Mitchell: Don't be deceived by the exterior and chow down on the lamb naan panini @ Whip In (made with locally-grown lamb). Top it off with a chai or awesome beer.

EaterEater: The convenience store/liquor store/Indian restaurant combo is odd, but that's what makes it quintessentially Austin. The naan sandwiches are what earned it a place on our list. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.
