    3 stars because the patio is dog friendly!
    I feel like the concept of the food is really good, there is some preparation skills lacking. I had brunch and shared a couple kinds of benedict with a smoked salmon appetizer.
    I think that almost everything was over cooked. Also big disappointment that the eggs were poached till hard In the center.

    That said the staff are amazing. Kind, attentive and fun! I think id go again, just expected more from the hype and location.

    Great find for brunch in Austin. They are known for their Bloody Mary's which were pretty good, but it was the food here that was out of this world. We started with the salmon appetizer and we were immediately impressed. Then my fiancé ordered the Croque Madam and I had the Fried Green Tomato Benedict with added ham. Both were amazing and very filling. We probably could have split one entree but everything on that menu looked so good that it was worth having the leftovers. Definitely will be back and would recommend to others.

    We ordered the Baked Brie as an appetizer and it was very tasty. I ordered the Shrimp & Grits and it was good. My son ordered the BLT with home cut fries and said it was good. He especially liked the thick cut bacon. It was not crowded inside, but the patio area was pretty full. I would probably go back again.

    First time coming here. The food was pretty good! But what really made this place shine was the hostess Sam!!! She was so welcoming and friendly. Her good vibes and energy was refreshing and she made our family smile. ? We will definitely be coming back, and it’s all thanks to Sunshine Sam!

    I arrived in town craving breakfast and my boyfriend suggested we go to Congress St. He picked this place and I was just beyond how delicious the food was! It was an hour wait, but totally worth it. You can call ahead to be put on the list and you'll get in faster. I had the shrimp and grits that was really flavorful and he had the BLT. Now I've never had one, but the bacon in this sandwich was the most amazing piece of thick, savory bacon I have ever had that I would go back for just a side order of it! I love the decor and ambiance in the restaurant, I will definitely be back again for round 2. My new fave place in Austin to go for breakfast!
