About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
  • Great for creative cocktails
  • Great for live music
Offering a bat's-eye-view of Lady Bird Lake and the downtown skyline, Geraldine's is named after the famed guinea fowl that once roamed Rainey Street. Respect for Austin's history and culture seeps into every part of the restaurant, from the local ingredients featured in our Chef's contemporary menu to the nightly concert lineup-because there is no Austin without live music. Take shelter from the Texas sun at our adjacent rooftop lounge, complete with private cabanas and outdoor seating.

    The Birria was delicious! Such an interesting dish, my only wish was - I hoped it was bigger. Especially if this establishment is truly going for “family style.” The Saffron Pasta was light, airy, and fresh! It was definitely a flavor combination I hadn’t been introduced to yet and I would absolutely recommend it. The House Milk Bread was delicious but again very small for “family style” The Patatas Bravas were okay, we weren’t the biggest fan equally. I personally felt it was overcooked. The Duck was personally my least favorite and I didn’t like it at all, too fatty and greasy. My girlfriend said it was good so, we had to agree to disagree (she didn’t finish it nor did she decide to take it to go lol) . The Baklava was DELICIOUS! It was like a smore, and I don’t like smores but this was a HIT and the presentation was wonderful.

    This was a disappointing experience. I expected more. The food was so-so, but the hostess was terribly rude. We made a reservation and received a text that our table was ready. When we arrived we were told it was not ready and had to wait another 20 minutes before being sat. The kitchen was on the verge of closing and the whole experience was very rushed. Not the Father’s Day brunch we were hoping to have.

    Nothing special. Going to a nice restaurant overlooking a pool with a ton of people half clothed does not scream classy. The food was so,so... especially for the price. The service was excellent, and that alone is a huge plus.

    Food was OUTSTANDING! Perfect for a large group looking to linger and order a few things at a time, chat, then a a few more, etc. Def don’t skip the baklava. We had to reorder a second it was go good! We arrived before the band. It was great. We wanted to stay for the music but the acoustics were awful and we couldn’t understand a word the singer was saying. It just sounds like a really loud drum and electric guitar with garbled noises.
