If you want a real culinary treat, you must try Paxton's...the reimagined Austin's. The Austin's corn bread appetizer has been replaced by "deadly" delicious corn bread pancakes- simply awesome. Some old fave's remain like the chicken fried chicken but- lemme tell you- this new dish with a Mac n Cheese side with the whipped potatoes are illegal. Now, the rainbow trout? The portions were unbelievable. The grilled broccolini and the cole slaw were bursting with flavor. A completely keto friendly meal. Austin's was great. The new Paxton's is better. Get'cher'self down there and support them- the food is fabulous as is the service. Located where the old Austin's was directly across from the Hyatt Regency read more

Their Ahi burger with fries and grilled veggies with asparagus and mashed potatoes were both really good when we dined here! Would come back again just to have the same meals again. read more

This place is no longer Austin's! They changed the menu and owners as well. This is more of a sit down and enjoy kind of dinner, not a quick meal.... The restaurant is now Paxton's and they did not change the sign outside either. Disappointed, but the server was really nice. read more

I love the meatloaf here! They had good service Too bad they closed it was my favorite restaurant to go to while visiting read more

Below average. Food was pretty bland, service was poor, and the whole place was pretty dirty. Not worth the Tahoe prices. read more

Very tasty food, kind service and chef that cared about my daughter's food allergy. The chef came out to talk to us to make sure all was good. Honestly, prob the best tasting food around Tahoe. Cute little restaurant that is cozy and warm atmosphere. Call for reservations recommended. read more

I came here for lunch with a big group and they were very accommodating and helped set up two tables for us. We were seated on the outside patio and the staff were all friendly. I decided to order the Ahi Tuna Sandwich, which was a tasty sandwich with seared ahi tuna. The order comes with fries and the portions were great! The food also came out in a timely manner, some dishes took longer than others, but that is to be expected. Overall, Austin's is a great casual dining option for lunch in Incline Village and we enjoyed our meal! read more

Austin's - Ahi Tuna Sandwich - American Near Me - Incline Village, Nevada

This was one of the restaurants our airbnb hosts recommended to check out during our stay in Tahoe and it did not disappoint! There's plenty of parking around and it's a quaint little restaurant right off the Main Street. We wanted something that was family friendly and this fit the bill! They have high chairs and a kids menu with crayons to draw for the kiddos. We ordered them the grilled cheese and the Mac and cheese as there weren't too many options. There isn't much of a variety for the kids. I took out 1 star because I asked for veggies on the side instead of French fries or mashed potatoes and they didn't have any. So the only sides they have are French fries or mashed potatoes... which the kids love because it's CARBS (who wouldn't?!) but man it would be great to include some veggies like steamed broccoli for the kids!! We ordered the artichoke appetizer and burgers for us and gave them some veggies from our plates. The burgers were decent, nothing out of the ordinary. They are VERY generous with their fries!! Service was a bit slow but very understandable as they seemed to be understaffed. I did appreciate our server coming to check in on us if we needed anything! The poor guy felt bad about our food taking longer and he was sweet and even gave our kids an extra juice. Really nice service!!! One thing to note is that this place is on the small side, especially if you're a group of 5 like us. I actually called in advance to reserve and we got lucky with one table perfect for our family. So I'd recommend calling in advance! All in all, this is a nice place to stop for lunch if you're in the area and it is a good kid friendly place! The portions are big but they don't have as much "healthier" options if you know what I mean. read more

Had the artichoke with a side of fries. The artichoke was cooked perfectly, though I could have done without the parmesan cheese since it was mainly on the inedible parts. The side of fries was enormous and absolutely delicious--even tasted great as cold leftovers the next day! The patio is dog-friendly, and the service was friendly and attentive. Overall, a nice spot for a meal. read more

This place is now called Paxton's. (Yelp needs to change the name. Paxton's is a recent change over and should be judged on its own merits. It happens to be the same location as the former Austin's). And it's excellent. So good. Food is fresh and delicious. We especially loved the cauliflower dish and the chicken with vegetables. The service is friendly and the chef chatted with us. We have already eaten there twice already while on a four day trip! Highly recommend. read more

I ordered to go from here to take next door to Paddlewheel Saloon. This restaurant has gotten a lot of bad reviews lately due to service, but I had a EXCELLENT experience here. We ordered the meatloaf, chicken fried steak, loaded chili and an artichoke. All the food was great - but not only that, Chris actually brought it to us next door! Zero complaints, good food and service. Not cheap, but nothing is in Incline Village! read more

Everything burnt and dry and from a box (see pictures we took home). Wouldn't even try this place again. Servers were friendly though! read more

Food is so so yummy! We've been coming for years and though the new menu is small (and no more chicken fried steak) what they do have now is delicious. The kids chicken and fries was a huge hit too! read more

I'm not one to leave a review but this place deserves it! The service was amazing! The food was even better! We got the chicken sando and the brisket grilled cheese, was absolutely delicious! Now we will be coming back to this restaurant whenever we are on this side of the lake We had a little one and they were the kindest to him Thank you guy to the new owners read more

They have a new chef and the food is fantastic!!! Went there last night with our family. The menu is smaller than before, but everything looks amazing. The cornbread pancakes with honey were spectacular, the Ahi tuna sandwich was incredible, the pork loin was delicious and the carrot bisque soup was superb. So was the crispy chicken on the salad. Live in town, and now go back here again in a heartbeat!! read more

TLDR: Cute cafe in Incline Village with large portions, really tasty food, and INCREDIBLE fries. If you're a fry snob, TRY THESE. FOOD: I had the chicken fried chicken sandwich (4/5). Huge fried chicken sandwich on Dutch crunch bread. I had a big appetite but still could only eat half the sandwich in one sitting. I usually love dutch crunch but I thought the crunch part of the bread was a little soggy / wasn't great. The sandwich itself was nice but nothing special. The sandwich came with a massive serving of fries (5/5) that were so crispy and packed with flavor. If you order the fries on their own, they come out in a huge bucket. I can't stop thinking about these fries.... We also ordered the meatloaf (4.5/5), which was tasty and well-seasoned. I only tried a bite of this but thought it was great. SERVICE: We had a really nice waitress and she attentively came to refill water and make sure we were doing well. She did forget one of our items but it wasn't a big deal and she quickly brought it out when we brought it up. ENVIRONMENT / AMBIANCE: We had a large group of ~10 people and while they couldn't accommodate us all at one outdoor table, they let us take over two tables next to each other on the outdoor patio. They did have a big enough table indoors, but because the weather was so nice, we wanted to sit outside. They have a wonderful outdoor space with plenty of tables that can fit 4-6 people each, and the environment feels calm and outdoorsy due to all the plants and trees and forest animals (mostly these beautiful birds that would flit around). read more

We have been going to Austin's for about 3yrs. They serve a dish called Chicken fried chicken. Well today we found out Austin's is soon to be named Paxtons and has a new owner. The new owner is the chef and was also the chef at Lone Eagle Grill. We met Chef Cory and our server Pete. Two of the nicest people you'll meet! Restaurant was cozy and had a good vibe! Chef Cory and Pete explained how they still have dishes from the old menu that customers enjoyed and some of Chef Cory's new dishes. The dish he served me and my wife was off the charts!! He added his touch to the dish, we have enjoyed for 3yrs and made it even more amazing! We also had his Texas Chilli meat no beans. It was wonderful! Also had a great house salad! Then we tried his Loaded macaroni potatoe salad, absolutely awesome! Thank you Chef Cory for the amazing food! Thank you Pete for the great service and food recommendations! We will be back soon! Mark Thompson. read more

Under new management! It's been awhile since I last ate here so I figured it was time. The menu has been reduced but kept some core favorites. The quality has increased. The weather was nice, so we sat outside. We got to try the bbq quail and it was incredible. The tomato and stone fruit salad was light and delicate. Perfect starter size. The trout (my entree) was perfectly cooked. My friend ordered the meatloaf (a generous portion) and said it was so good. Never got to try it - he ate the whole thing! All in all, they're off to a solid start. And yes I realize they're not just starting out...definitely will be back again soon. read more

My family and I had the pleasure of visiting from the Bay Area. We stumbled upon Austin close to our hotel. The food impressed us with its freshness and lovely presentation. Every dish we tried was absolutely delightful. If only this place were in my hometown, I would be a regular visitor. read more

Had the steak along with the tomato and stone fruit salad, and both were outstanding. The steak was cooked perfectly--juicy and flavorful--and the salad was bright, fresh, and bursting with seasonal flavor. Austin's nails that balance of quality ingredients and great execution. Highly recommend. read more

It was nice meeting you today, Cole and team! The food was amazing and my entire family enjoyed their lunch today. Congrats on the ownership and wish you the best of luck! If you guys were in the Bay, there would be a line out the door. read more

First and foremost,Austin's was a favorite restaurant of ours prior to the Brimm's selling. The cornbread was a real favorite,. We went there today for lunch after a 1 1/2 year hiatus. It took 30 minutes to be served. The Burger was way over cooked. The chicken sandwich was simply a breast with bbq sauce on it. Extreme minimal effort in the kitchen to produce a tasty treat. We will no longer support Austin's any longer. read more

The food was ok but my burger didn't have any flavor. The bread literally fell off with my first bite. Very over priced

Service was fine, at first a waiter handed me a couple of menus and pointed me to an outdoor table, the waitress we had though was very nice, except we never got her name. That table was pretty sticky, though. We probably should have left at the get go when we got laminated menus but we were hungry and took a chance . I ordered the Beet Tartar, it was okay but could have used some dressing, basically beets, walnuts spinach and goat cheese, no dressing.. I ordered the chef's speciality meat loaf, it was dry, very dry.. not sure when this was made but it was either over cooked to begin with or over microwaved.. My wife ordered their burger, it was huge, while it was falling apart and hard to eat, she said it had good flavor. So instead of a 1, I gave 2 stars for the waitress and the so so burger.. read more

If you're looking a delicious warm meal - this is the place for you. The burgers are massive and the cornbread is amazing. if you're into alcohol (or mock tails) Chris the bartender from Iowa is your guy. if you have a larger group, we recommend getting there before the rush. Enjoy! CHRIS! CHRIS! CHRIS! CHRIS! read more

New and improved menu! We've been coming here for years, but the new menu from the new chef, CJ, is much improved! The chef is the former chef at the Lone Eagle. He does a great job keeping the Tahoe nostalgia while keeping it fresh. He had local farmed beets and a much improved Doug's Salad! Can't beat that out door Tahoe feel with a great ambiance! read more

We decided to try this place for dinner and although some of the reviews were less than favorable recently, we were happy with our choice. It's a quaint place to eat, not a whole bunch of tables inside. There were 4 of us and we all had different meals. Fiesta Chicken, Country Fried steak, chicken fried chicken and the Ahi Tuna were all delicious. The service was good, food was served quickly and we had a good experience. read more

I so wanted to like this place but they did not have the ingredients for my cocktail, which was okay, but then did not have the menu beer I ordered, nor did they have the 2nd menu beer I ordered. When asked if another was a "wheat" beer, the waiter had no idea what we were talking about. The food ordered was okay and it took forever to get a check. This was at 4pm on a weekday so it was not that crowded. All in all, a disappointment. read more

The buttermilk fries is a big bowl of fries w/ sauce. They do warn you upon ordering. They do taste good though; battered and crispy and flavored nicely. Definitely recommend getting the loaded version, otherwise it's just a lot of fries. Fried chicken salad is best of both world. You get their famous fried chicken chopped up so you won't have to deal with bones. And you get to not feel guilty by eating leaves. Burger is big and comes with a lot of fries. Fiesta chicken is pretty good too. Tilapia is the most expensive out of our order but also the smallest serving. All the food is pretty solid. They don't recognize the yelp check in offer. The workers look international and maybe they don't know yelp. But the service is friendly and fast. This restaurant is located in incline village, so it's a good option if you're staying in the north area. They also have other trendy/hip-looking restaurants right next door, same parking area. read more

Quick update.. Still awesome! Ordered the Chicken Wings, best ever, 5 stars! I love breading they put on everything. It was just perfect on the wings. They tossed in a good amount of Frank's hot sauce. I like my wings served with a good thick ranch that with hold on to the wings while you eat, thin ranch just runs all over. Their ranch was perfectly thick, great for eating wing I recommend anything chicken fried (chicken or steak) they know what they're doing. You can get it on a sandwich or dinner entree, both awesome. And the fries too Can't wait to get back! read more
