The lovely authentic place to visit with friends or family to have brunch . The Sunday Southern brunch variety was great including various dishes, soup and desserts. The place was crowded and it is recommended to make a reservation. Ambiance was vibrant and staff were courteous and quite friendly. A must try in Austin to see a walk to this restaurant in downtown Austin Texas. 🌺

We had my husband’s birthday dinner here. The atmosphere was perfect! We had the fried green tomatoes and I did not expect them to be so delicious and unique. The waygu Salisbury steak was delicious as well. My husband is a bourbon drinker and they did not disappoint on selection. Our waitress was awesome! I can’t wait to get back through Austin and come again!

Moonshine Grill was the best choice we could’ve made for Thanksgiving. The buffet was incredible—prime rib, turkey, ham, and a great variety of sides like mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, deviled eggs, plus plenty of fresh fruit and desserts. It truly captured the festive Thanksgiving spirit. Valet parking was $12, and there’s also street parking nearby. I’m definitely coming back next year—hoping I can snag a reservation again!

Everything was awesome! The popcorn as a lil app was nice and not something I’ve ever experienced before. Our waitress was attentive and helpful with the menu as newbies. I got the chicken fried steak and it was so good!! Loved the touch of spice from the chipotle in the gravy. My husband had the chicken and waffles which he enjoyed. We got the biscuits as an app also! Which they were soooo buttery and delicious
