September 17, 20205 yr My son refs out there from time to time . . . what a dump. Once I figured out that Poodie's was a better 10 minute drive one way than 20 minutes home only to turn around and come back an hour later, things got a lot better.
September 17, 20205 yr Really? Have had totally acceptable pies there. Fucking covid fucking everytihng up I had the shrimp pasta which was really solid last time pre Covid. I’ll go with jerseys or toss for pizza.

October 14, 20205 yr Might be mentioned in the thread but thoughts on Lake Travis Pizza? About a mile from the new office and looks great.

Had seen some reviews early on about issues, so waited until they had time to work it out. Got pizza there last week and it was good. Not up with the better places in Austin, but better than what is generally available in the Four Points/Lake Travis corridor. Will try it again.

October 28, 20205 yr Has anyone tried The Gramercy yet (where the place called MacArthur’s used to be)?
November 3, 20205 yr Artemis today...beer battered mahi pita was great and the wings had some great spice. Fries were good as always. Did the Little Greek place close?

February 13, 20214 yr We were gonna try Ellera today for lunch, but it didn't open until 4:00p. Lots of good buzz about it out that way. Anyway, hit up a solid standby---Giovanni's Table about a half mile back towards Austin. They did a really good penne and (few slices of grilled) chicken with spinach and a lemon-caper-oil-butter sauce. Some special named after one of their kids. It was really good for a rather light Italian dish. Anyway, glad we could throw them some business (had a few chiantis), really nice folks that actually remembered me despite me not having been there in probably 6-7 months). All that said, I am about to have the most violent bowel movement I have had in 2021. So godspeed.
April 17, 20214 yr PSA, if you’re familiar with Thyme and Dough in Dripping Springs, their drive-thru at Fitzhugh and RR12 is open now. You can pick up croissants or sandwiches and homemade bread there.
May 27, 20214 yr Author Wife and I have hit the Garden at Ellera a few more times. We like the place a lot, have enjoyed everything that we've ordered. Looking forward to trying the indoor dining https://ellerarestaurant.com/menu/

August 22, 20214 yr Author https://www.kaiserstwistedbbq.com/ This place opened back up in the food truck lot on 620 near the home depot. Very nice flavors going on. Picked up some of the pulled pork to take on the boat yesterday. He was out of brisket, but said he was doing some wagyu today. Stopped by after church and picked up brisket, a sandwich, some beans and potato salad. I am not a big fan of beans but he basically forced a sample on me. They are magical. And mostly meat. Open Fri-Sun, 11:30 till out.
August 23, 20214 yr That looks damn good. And that sauce is so thicc. I’m an Okie boy and we believe in sauce (although I raised my boy [UT grad] to be anti sauce). Will have to check it out
September 23, 20214 yr anyone have an update on what's going in to the old Taco Bell at Walsh Tarlton and Bee Caves?
September 23, 20214 yr Conventional wisdom said it was to be a What-A-Burger but rumor had it different now

September 24, 20214 yr Author Cannot more strongly recommend this food truck off hamilton near 12. https://leylaskitchen.com/ Edited September 24, 20214 yr by Anastasis
September 24, 20214 yr Author Ps. Call in your order well in advance because they take for fucking ever.
January 11, 20223 yr Went to Louisiana Crab Shack located in the old fudruckers location in the shops at the galleria in bee cave tonight. I had a shrimp po boy and wife had catfish and they both were good. We were literally the only people there at 6pm on a Monday night so I don't think it will be around too much longer so go while you can.
January 24, 20223 yr Finally tried the Garden at Ellera... was very much looking forward to a nice lunch outside before a nearby soccer game. Looked at the menu... hmmm... prices are a little steep for lunch but OK, if it's good, it's worth it. Ordered the $18 plate of gnocchi. Food comes out. Eight Gnocchi 8 otto for $18.00 Yeah, they were good but c'mon. Outdoor space is amazing, wine selection was OK though seemed overpriced but the baby portions were absurd.
January 24, 20223 yr On a side note, just before we got the food, I was commenting, "I can't wait to go back to Italy where the prices are so good and you can get a liter of wine for less than a glass of wine here"

March 13, 20223 yr What-a-Burger deal fell through. Doesn't mean they won't come back to the table (pun intended), but it's back on the open market. they're also considering demolition and letting Cane's use part of it for a second drive-thru lane like Chik-Fil-A (it's 90% extended cab pickups with trailers in their lane during lunch hour and at 5:00p). And the rest as parking/ATM drive-up. But that's a backup plan, I'm guessing it returns as a glorified PAD site for some shitty chain. I was really pulling for what-a-burger, though my cholesterol wouldn't appreciate it.
June 5, 20223 yr Anyone know what’s going on to the old Jason’s Deli at the Randall’s anchored center at Bee Cave and Walsh Tarlton? Sign on the door says FC Domain LLC and they’ve applied for a liquor permit.
