Had a girl's date night here and we would definitely go again:) I definitely recommend making a reservation because it was a Wednesday and I made a reservation the night before and there were already no inside tables available. We started with the milk bread and it is delicious! A must to get here. The lobster roll was good but so big I could only eat one. The brussel sprouts are perfect. The drinks are good and it was a beautiful evening to sit outside. Great dinner at a great place with great service:)
Cody's is always a class act! The food is consistently outstanding, the drinks are top notch, and the atmosphere keeps us coming back. What really sets this place apart is the personal touch. The owners actually remember what you enjoy and will even bring in a bottle of spirits you may like based on your last visit. That level of hospitality is rare these days. Great people, great service, and an all-around great experience every time. Highly recommend!
There's good and bad. The bad, was very bad. This was the worst steak that I have ever eaten in my many years of life. - before dining here, I researching the reviews. I decided that I was going to order the popular haddock. The server announced that the daily off-the-menu special was a Picanha steak. I asked her if this was the true Brazilian steak & she replied it was, impressed that we even knew what that was. I had just eaten a very tender Picanha steak at a Brazilian steakhouse weeks prior, so I decided against the haddock & went for the special. - When my steak came, I was actually impressed by the large cut. But, that was my last positive impression. When I tried to cut it, I had to struggle with my knife. I finally was able to cut a piece & it was the toughest meat I have ever tasted. I had to spit it out. I cut a piece for my wife to taste for verification & she experienced the same, having to put her piece from mouth to plate. Mind you, the steak was ordered medium-rare, with more on the rare side, so it wasn't cooked to be tough. - I immediately called over the waitress. She was understanding, and offered another steak. I said no way, and asked her to bring me anything else that could be prepared quickly, as my wife was 1/3 through her entree. She offered a burger and I agreed. What may have been a one-star review considering the terrible steak, turned into a three-star since the burger was excellent, as were the other food items. Surprisingly, the manager, if there even was one, didn't even come over to apologize. There was no sign of a manager checking on any table. This was the first time in my life that I have ever sent a steak back. I refrain from doing so because of what the kitchen could do to my food if they're insulted. The good, & it was good: - we had the coconut shrimp appetizer. The shrimp was succulent and large. It came in an order of four. - the service by Maura was excellent. She took our drink orders and delivered post-haste. My wife particularly enjoyed the JO Chenet Sparkling Rose. - the wife's entree of lobster tacos, although extremely small & unfilling, were tasteful according to her. In closing, IF I ever return here, I would never order a steak.
Stopped in here Friday night for last minute birthday dinner plans for my mother and I have the highest recommendation for this restaurant! Make sure you make reservations ;) we got lucky at the bar top! Bartenders were great! I am still admiring the dinner I had the night before and it was a great atmosphere! Will be returning
The service here was spectacular. Our waitress was very nice and helpful. It was my first time there as we were on vacation visiting family. The waitress helped me with the menu and recommendations. Which I appreciated. The food was great. The milk bread was out of this world good. I loved the bacon wrapped poblano peppers as well. The restaurant itself was nice and enjoyable. I loved the wall murals.
We were on our Anniversary and I decided to try this place out since it had good reviews. The place is easy to find and parking is good since it's in a shopping center. We loved the ambiance since it had a nice romantic bar vibe, and the service was great! Our server helped us with the menu, and we ordered our drinks and appetizer, which was the Milk Bread and the Bacon Wrapped Poblano. For our main course we ordered the Beef Wellington and also the special, which was the Lobster Ravioli. Everything tasted great and the service was good. The business also offered military discount which was a plus.
We arrived early and I informed the hostess that we had a reservation. She advised that was no problem but never asked me my name. She went to seat us at a table when I let her know that I had requested a specific table and that's when she realized it (It was also the only table in the restaurant with a reserved sign) Our server (Mike/Mikey) did a good job. It was nothing spectacular but also no complaints. We ordered a Martini and a Cosmo and both drinks were solid. We moved on to wine and ordered our food. A Ribeye and the Scallops. The Ribeye was perfectly cooked as were the scallops. The candied pork belly was a lot drier than usual but still good (Usually it is great) For dessert we shared a Scotch and the chocolate cake. That was the one disappointment of the night. Cody's is our favorite restaurant, and we love the consistency in quality of the food.
Fantastic find! Lovely vibe, great service! That dirty Diana cocktail was one of the best I've ever had! Nice twist! The tuna tartare was unique and perfectly balanced. Scallops out of this world. Everyone in our party enjoyed every plate!
We were looking for a place to eat that was different from what we could get in our home town of Houston. We found Cody's due to reviews. This place doesn't disappoint! The interior is intimate with low lighting. Each table has a real flame candle. Classy. It's the perfect place for sharing a bottle of wine and having a quiet meal. The walls are lined with murals of famous musicians. Our server was great. She provided input on their best dishes. I wish I remembered her name. 7/3/2024 at 9:05 PM. She has long hair and is very friendly. She did a great job. We started with the wedge salad. It's large enough to split. The bacon was so good. Very crisp and flavorful. I had the lobster ravioli for my meal. It was delicious! The sauces drizzled on the ravioli tasted like a butternut squash base. You may not think those items would pair well, but it was perfect. The dish looks small, but it was filling. The gentleman had the pork chop. It is a bone-in chop on a bed of mash potatoes. The portion is large. I am not a pork chop person, but I was very impressed. The bacon jam was great, potatoes were creamy, and the chop itself was very tender. I highly recommend both of these. I included a picture of the menu. We only found the lunch menu on Google. You need to do dinner here! Cody's has been open for 12 years. They will be around for a long time, I'm sure. Very, very pleased with our experience.
I ate here yesterday with a group of about 35 people. 1st time and talk about impressed. An assortment of appetizers were ordered but I saw the Poblano Peppers stuffed with chorizo and cream cheese, wrapped in bacon and cooked to pure perfection. Absolutely delicious! A must try. They were so good It was all I could think about today. Beef Wellington was on the menu but I decided to have the Pork Chop. Cooked to perfection! ( you'll see this word throughout this review) The purée mashed potato were scrumptious. I knew I had to come back for dinner today. Tonight we had the Poblano Peppers and true to form they were sooooo dang good. After last nights rave reviews I knew I had to try the Beef Wellington. Mouth watering deliciousness! I also had a couple scallops and like everything they were seared and cooked perfectly. Service is impeccable and the Chef deserves a huge pat on the culinary back. If you're in San Marcos....it's a must try. Thank me later!
This place was a good little surprise we started we the tuna tartar, the bakery bread, panko coconut shrimp and sweet corn bisque we were all so happy the bread with the garlic butter was a huge hit and everyone love the shrimp the tartar was so refreshing. Then we had the prime ribeye and mushrooms on the side the black garlic dusted redfish and tomato risotto with chicken chicken was a disappointment it was very tough so put it aside and used the mushrooms in the risotto and it was so good and the fish and steak were good the lobster tacos don't need all the extra stuff you can't taste the lobster

SERVICE: table side, attentive AMBIANCE: clean, cozy, relaxing FLAVORS: short ribs (10/10) - it's only 4 slices but they are the best most flavorful short ribs I've had in a while! pork chop (8/10) - SO tender and juicy, but the topping of crunchy peppers with goat cheese and potato puree were discordant even though tasty PORTIONS: filling and hearty PRICE: $$$$ BONUS TIP: parking is $10 and not validated like with Krause.... Hmmm read more

Absolute go to whenever I am in Austin/San Marcos/New Braunfels, in fact I will go well out of my way to enjoy Cody's. I met Cody several years ago and have been coming back several times a year from our home near Dallas. The food, beverages and service is stellar. The menu changes from time to time with new and delicious additions every time! We make it a point to come for birthdays and anniversaries and we are never disappointed. Cody goes out of his way to welcome us, and everyone for that matter. The staff is very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. The food is amazing! Tonight was a date night and we had the Bluefin Brie, awesome, and the Gyulais Striploin, unbelievable! We missed Cody tonight, it is his birthday today, Happy Birthday Cody, thanks for a great restaurant. read more
My friend and I enjoyed our lunch here where we received amazing service with delicious food. They have a great back patio and all of the staff were kind and extremely pleasant. I highly recommend to stop in even for a drink as they also have a great bar area. read more

We absolutely loved our experience here. Came for a weekend Valentines day dinner and enjoyed items from their seasonal menu and valentines menu. Staff was nice, seated us quickly. Although we were at the bar, it didn't seem to close or over crowded. Server was attentive to our needs, however left us alone to enjoy our meal and each-others company. Steak was cooked medium rare and melted in your mouth. The scallops were perfect - not rubbery or fishy. But the star of the show was the Bluefin Tuna. Was absolute perfection. Would absolutely go again and Highly recommend! read more

We came here to meet in between San Antonio and Austin for my brother and i's joint birthday. And honestly? We were wow'd. It was a quiet Wednesday evening on the 3rd, so we were seated immediately. Our server Tanya explained the menu and made great drink recommendations. Several members of my family ordered the scallops, my husband ordered the pork chop, my SIL ordered a steak, and I ordered beef Wellington. Everything was cooked so incredibly. My beef Wellington was flavorful and tender, the scallops were to die for. read more

Someone in town recommended this restaurant and then we heard that they would be taking over our favorite restaurant in New Braunfels, so we had to stop by and try it. The atmosphere is nice and quiet with dim lighting. I was worried that this would be more of a fancy dress restaurant but you should be ok wearing everyday casual dress. We sat at the bar and we met the owner, Cody, there. He was chatting with the staff and some of the customers too. - Crab and Chorizo Aranchini: these were very good! I really enjoyed the freshness that the basil added to the salty arancini. - Yellowfin Tuna Tataki: The fish was very fresh and tender! Cody mentioned that he sources his seafood from a supplier in Houston that supplies Austin and San Antonio. I enjoyed the Sambal Chili Sauce with the tuna. - Filet: Cooked medium - my boyfriend got this and I had a few bites and it was a great steak. He said it was the best steak he had in a while. The drinks at the bar are great! This is a quality local restaurant, a bit on the higher end. I think it would be a great special occasion restaurant. read more

Myself and 3 others walked into Cody's on a Saturday evening around 9 pm and were seated immediately. The food, service, and ambiance were all really good. We never had milk bread and it was very tasty. Actually everything we ordered was good. At our table we had crab cakes, beef short ribs, pork chops, scallops, grilled shrimp (add on), lobster tacos, and Caesar salad. Lots of the reviews said the Caesar salad was really good, it was nothing out of the ordinary but I did like that it had an artichoke in it. The scallops had some pork belly in it and it was phenomenal! Everything was so good and next time I am in town I plan to return. read more
