Everything was great except for parking. The open table website indicated that there was valet - but finding the valet stand - was challenging because it was not in front or behind the restaurant. When I finally figured out where the valet stand was - the stand was right in front of a stop sign, and you cant easily get out of your car to give to the valet w a bunch of cars behind you. I had to find a parking spot down the street. Parking in that area is a nightmare.

I love this place! after attending a very nice and detoxing yoga retreat I really felt a need to retox! I usually get seafood but switched it up and had the Filet Mignon Oscar and a martini . So good! My sweetie had the salmon salad and seafood gumbo(also amazing) I don’t know why this place isn’t always crazy busy. Parked in the city of Austin garage
