Great food and wine! Service was satisfactory.. Will definitely be back!
We made a reservation and the restaurant was closed. Reservations should not be allowed if the restaurant is closed. Other people were there who had reservations. Disappointing.
Business was closed (which was understandable) but it was not posted anywhere.
The menu is good but the food is sub par at best. Definitely overpriced for how it’s prepared and the quality of the food. Our drinks were just “OK”The ambiance is nice and the restaurant was clean. Our waitress was very nice and attentive. Overall, it was average to below average and I wouldn’t visit again.
We are not from the area but had been to the Austin location at the Domain last year and enjoyed it so we decided to visit the downtown location. The food was very good. Service was okay - our waiter was very nice but seemed to forget things and would make several trips to our table. Overall the meal was enjoyable.
So great! Food, service, wine, ambiance. Perfect place for a date!
Great outdoor patio and food
Everything was great! From the food to our service!
Lovely Sancerre, pizza + salad + brussel sprouts were delicious
We sat outside and it was absolutely perfect!! The AMBIANCE! 70° in Texas and pizza on a porch overlooking the trail. Wow.
Each time the quality of the food has unfortunately went down as well as the service. Love the grove but will consider going to the west lake location going forward.
We had an amazing first experience here! We came before the night rush and had some great food and drinks. Would definitely recommend for date night or a night out with some friends!
Service was amazing, food was fantastic (with lots of gluten free options), and wine list was extensive. We lived everything about it!
This is a regular spot for us. We love the lakeway and downtown location. The Grove never disappoints.
We ate on the patio. Service was attentive and patient while we sipped our martinis to start. It was pretty darn cold, but our kind waiter, Marshall, fired up 2 propane heaters for our table. The redfish meuniere was excellent. My date had shrimp linguine dish, also very good. Eat at the Grove or order for curbside pick up. Please support our restaurants.
My 25th birthday dinner! So fun! Great food and our waitress was amazing!!
Delicious, as always. We appreciate the extra large patio and ability to distance during this time. Food was delicious too!
Good experience. Entrees were served while we were eating our appetizers. Three people tried to clear our entrees prematurely. What’s the rush?
Get the avocado toast!!!! It is phenomenal.
The food was great! I had the steak salad and the steak was perfectly seasoned. My friend had the salmon and she lovedit. Our husbands had pork chop and they too were impressed. The meatballs were so good we ordered another plate to share. Really positive experience.
Absolutely fantastic server. Great social distancing and they have heat lamps so you can sit outside even when it’s cold. Food is always great.
I usually go to the Grove in Westlake but decided to head to the downtown location because it had better times available and the noise level inside is much lower than at the Westlake location. Food and wine suggestions were great as usual and the inside was well spaced out and at safe distances.
Food was amazing! Especially the spaghetti bolognese.
I had a wonderful dinner at the Grove two nights ago with my friend. Highly suggest the bruschetta as an appetizer, the blackberry balsamic with goat cheese was a particular favorite between my friend and I. The outside patio is a absolutely breathtaking, a perfect place to enjoy an evening. Our waiter Marshall made the dinner even more enjoyable with his warm, friendly demeanor. Will be here again to eat for sure and ask specifically for him to serve us.
Fresh and delicious as always! We went for brunch and sat outside. The weather was great. I felt very safe with the distance between the tables and the restaurant's strict adherence of wearing a mask to/from the table. I had their famous frosé and avocado toast - delish!
Once again, you folks made my evening fabulous. My BFF had never been to The Grove. She was blown away with the wine selection. I believe my server was Alison (sorry if I can remember - the receipt shows her as PM B and I was Order # 152 on 11/21/2020). She is a rock star - very patient, intelligent, and very fun.
I turned her onto my all time favorite dish (Coriander Crusted Halibut) and I finally had your steak. OMG, it was so good. I continue to watch my figure being a 60 y/o man and workout nerd - but - thank you for making mashed potatoes sexy. I did some extra goblet squats and rowed an additional 1000 meters because of it.
We had the Bruschetta and again, that stuff is sexy good.
The W. 6th Grove is my happy place. I love the location and the venue. But, Cedar Park is equally as good. So I'm spreading the love across two Texas counties.
Thank you again for what you do. Scott Stookey
Great food and service! We love the patio which helps us still be able to dine out right now. Great place.
Food was great. Service was great. Patio was nice! Definitely look forward to my return!
Had dinner here with a group of friends for my 40th birthday. Service was top-notch, food was great, and they adjusted tables to fit our needs. I'd highly recommend it.
they don't do breakfast well. drinks and dinner i've been told are quite good here, by many people, but i think breakfast is a new thing for them during COVID and they still need to figure it out. not a great spot for kids, and we had a little one in tow.
Perhaps it’s because I haven’t had one in forever, but that was a fantastic Old Fashioned
Chill Friday dinner. Good easy food but great wine list
Was a very nice meal. I just wish my server came around a little bit more often than she did l, but other than that she was fantastic and the food was amazing.
Some of the entrees I've had here have been fantastic, but our lunch today was just bland. Nothing really wrong, but the price is off for the food quality. Service was great, drinks are priced right. Great spot for happy hour bites, less awesome for a big meal.
Great place for brunch or lunch. Excellent location. Patio is nice!
The Lox and Bagel was amazing. It was so delicious and filling that I could only eat one half. The service was great! If you are with a party of two or more for brunch, I highly recommend the mimosa bottle service.
Food & Service were amazing. We enjoyed everything about our visit!
There are plenty of choices in Austin. The food is just okay.
Food was good, service was decent. Great vibe and A+ music playlist
Downtown was nice on the patio. Food very good as always is.
