Downtown Grill — Restaurant in Austin

WOW!! What a gem! The drinks: spectacular! So many flavors woven in, we had The Downtown Gardener and the Mango Shotta Spicy Marg. They were amazing, great depth and very refreshing. Next the baked potato soup!!! The BEST we’ve ever had hands down! Something remarkable about it. 100% made by highly skilled hands and a love for the art of cooking! Again deep layers of incredible flavor! Now our main course, sure there were several entrees that looked great but the Swiss Mushroom Burger and the Jalapeño Popper Burger stood out. The popper burger had a thick delicious layer of slightly smoky perfectly melted cream cheese and pepper jack, then some jalapeños and a toasted bun. It was a 10! The Swiss mushroom burger had a nice thick layer of sautéed mushrooms and creamy Swiss cheese. Very flavorful and delicious. Our onion rings were cooked to perfection, crispy with a smooth tender onion inside. We highly recommend this restaurant! Thx to Griffin too, he was very polite and friendly. Five Stars and again highly recommend, if you’re within 100 miles take the time, you...

Great Find near I-90. Easy seating at noon on a Wednesday. Staff was articulate, personable and attentive. The cold water was on table when we were seated on this 90 degree day.

The sweet potato fries were the best I’ve had in years, seriously. Plus, dessert to go was a must when it is key lime pie. This will now be our stop along the I-90 route. This was the cheapest yet best meal of our road trip....

I ordered a burger and fries for lunch. The waiter said he would bring the meal 1 business down the same block, as soon as it was done, to save me a few minutes of waiting. An hour later, he still hadn’t brought it. I asked someone to cover my shift so I could check in the order I bought. When I walked into the restaurant, the main waitress/ bartender was loudly yelling at the other waitress. Main bartender followed up by bad mouthing her help as soon as she went to serve a customer, in front of a group of customers. When my food came up, the fries were rubbery and cold, and he said the order had been ready for a while, but he didn’t have time to bring it to me….. overall an extremely...
