Allen ArcadeJanuary 27, 2013The fried chicken with tobasco and maple grits it fantastic as either a lunch or brunch dish. The breading is crispy and flavorful. Big taste for only $9.
Austin ChronicleFebruary 23, 2013This Austin landmark, now under new ownership, has renovated its menu and its environs with a farm-to-table concept emphasizing fresh, locally sourced seasonal fare and a sleek, modern aesthetic.

V ChangMay 7, 2013New menu is full of gluten free eating, including fried chicken, crab cakes and chicken fried steak. Also great outdoor patio that wasn't crowded during lunch.
New brunch is great! Try the crispy fried chicken and grits. Grits are amazeballs - goat cheese and apple . Get some extra hot sauce on the side.
John LoftisOctober 8, 2012The Hickory Street Burger is awesome. It's topped with a duck egg, cheese and bacon. Yum!
Mike BJune 13, 2012Best restaurant I've dined at in months! The service was wonderful and the food was absolutely fantastic!
Will FranklinMarch 16, 2013Much improved since the old days. Same idea as before, but better execution.
Mark CrowellMarch 14, 2013Shitty ass service. I can understand we were not fing sxsw people. But don't push me out the door while I am still eating. This place just lost a loyal cutomer today.
Yesenia SoteloMarch 10, 2013Really disappointing experience after such good reviews. Virtually absent service. Glacially slow food delivery.
