So far this is a great atmosphere and the happy hour vibe is definitely in this place! The happy hour Long Island tea was nice and I only had one. We ordered what shows on the pics below. Ok let's start with the center cut baby back ribs. I really never expect to be at a non bbq restaurant thinking the ribs are going to be all that anyway, so they were ok and tangy. The wife ordered the garlic lemon pepper wings and said she wanted it crispy but they were not crispy as ordered but she said they were still good. The fries were delicious as well. The server was busy but he was satisfactory. Overall I give this place four out of five for the switch around. read more

Great service at the bar. Club sandwich was delicious but went light on honey mustard and aioli on the side. Side grilled veggies were tasty that included mushrooms, brussel sprouts,red bell pepper, zucchini, squash, and asparagus. Would definitely order it again. Mimosa was top level juice/bubbles. I will be back ! read more

I don't know where to start because this was one of the best dining experiences I've had all year. Service was phenomenal, thank you RJ! He was friendly, knowledgeable and patient when we couldn't decide what to order. Everything we ordered was delicious! And came out hot and fresh! The prices were a good deal for the portions and the happy hour special is a steal! Good food and service is hard to come by but this experience changed the game! Definitely looking forward to coming back asap! read more

We went early on a weekday evening and the place was half full. We both ordered the filet mignon, medium rare with 4 fried shrimp. For 30 bucks, the entree only comes with one side. Her steak was raw, all the shrimp were raw, my mashed potatoes were served cold, her Brussels sprouts were a mix of perfectly cooked and chewy raw. Two stars for the friendly staff and atmosphere. $100 meal for two with one drink and the tip. read more

I went to 54 for the first time yesterday, and loved it! We had some drinks and shared several appetizers, which were delicious! The best part of the experience though, was the service! Our waiter, Josh, was amazing! He checked on us often, and was so personable and funny! We will definitely be returning to 54...and hope that Josh is working! read more

We tried to go here a few weeks ago. Took a bit to be acknowledged by the hostess, but she sat us fairly quickly. Issue is, no waitstaff ever greeted us. We sat there for at least 10 minutes (it was busy but not super busy because I could see wait staff standing around in the back) sever wait staff passed by us an even spoke with tables around us, but no one ever greeted us. Not even to say "sorry I'll be with you in just a second" We finally just got up and walked out. Too many good places to eat in this city to put up with that BS Also, the place just felt kind of dirty and gross. Not sure how a brand new restaurant can already feel run down dirty and dingy, but definitely gave me the ick. I can't imagine that we will be giving it another chance read more

Had high hopes for this place as the menu looks good. But we sat here for over 15 minutes. Our waitress didn't even acknowledge us and we had to go up to the hostess stand. We were pretty close to walking out. Ok now that we got our food Ave C NEVER even checked on us because my food was AWFUL!!! I asked to speak with a manager, Jacob. Let's just say Jacob was definitely another disappointment. I told him I was still hungry and was gonna have to order food elsewhere no offer of anything to replace my nasty food read more

Food was above average sports bar food. Had the smash burger and onion rings....decent for the price. My drinks were fantastic though. Had a couple of ranch waters and they did not disappoint. read more

Great place to enjoy dinner. We had a party of four. Everyone we interacted with was great. The staff was pleasant and very accommodating. The food was amazing. I had the prime rib dip with onion rings. We also had a the rack of ribs, quesadilla and fried pickles. All great. read more

Excellent broad selection of quality food. Nice plush atmosphere. Good service. Good comfort meal place.

Service is always on point. Everyone's friendly and accommodating the moment you walk in. Good came out fast fresh and hot. I ordered the nachos and 2 margaritas and everything was wonderful! Will be back. read more

Clelian was our server very welcoming and she was very attentive to our service. Food was good and full of flavor. Sunday football was great atmosphere to watch and enjoy with my love. read more

Five Four Restaurant & Drafthouse - Carrot cake was so yummy. - Bars Near Me - Austin, Texas

It is so nice to see new restaurants in South Austin. This is a nice addition. The food is good, menu extensive, and the drinks appear to equally impressive. Missing is the level of service. The hostesses failed to acknowledge our presence for a period of time. Our server appeared to be poorly trained. There was little follow up other than putting food on the table. We were in mid-afternoon on a Sunday. It felt like the B team was working. We will return and hope for a bit of improvement. read more

Everything! The food was delicious, the waiter was nice and courteous. The drinks were fairly priced for the amount and strong. The atmosphere was nice and clean. read more

Terrible food, terrible service. Party of seven, went to celebrate 2 birthdays! Some of us ordered coffee - they were out after the first cup, a restaurant that runs out of coffee, how does that happen? Some ordered margaritas, could not drink them. No one enjoyed their meals, the only good and edible items were the waffle fries and fried pickles. We saw the waitperson when taking our order and delivering food. We were never asked if we needed anything else. Since we could not drink anything water would have been nice. When it was time for the bill we had to ask the hostess to find our waitress, we could see the entire waitstaff in the back on their phones. We did not ask for refunds as we wanted to get out of there. It was a multiple birthday party, so we were planning on more coffee and dessert but were never asked and of course they had no coffee for an evening meal. read more

Tasty tater kegs, mac and cheese and veggie wrap! They are slow for in house service but other than that great!

Came for Veterans Day and ordered chicken fried chicken with mashed potatoes and Mac and cheese. The mashed potatoes and the Mac cheese were room temperature. Only the chicken was hot. Doubt I'll be back. read more

I've eaten here twice in the last week. Both times the food was delicious. The first time I had the chicken fried chicken lunch special. It was a chicken breast, breaded and fried rather than pieces of chicken. But it was well done and moist when I've been into it. The mashed potatoes were covered with a peppery white gravy. I also had the bbq beans as a side, which were well executed. Also had a strawberry margarita that was pretty good as well. The server I had this time hadn't quite adapted to the technology they were using to take orders. The next time I had the rattlesnake pasta with just chicken on it. It was a gigantic dish, that was enough for two meals. It's spicy and has a strong cumin flavor. The surfer had this trip was well informed and made some good recommendations. As far as the look and feel, I believe it's an upscale brewpub vibe. It's got a giant ceiling fan. That's about 10 feet across in one area TVs that line the walls to cover the sports that are on a see-through area to the keg room. read more

Went here today to celebrate my son's graduation. The service crew was so accommodating and setup tables for a party of 16 on the patio! It was the perfect spot for our party. The food was amazing from the appetizers to the entrees and drinks, all of it was delicious and the service crew were nice, fast and on point. Loved it. Thanks read more

Service so far is amazing! Very nice and speedy! And friendly :) house salad is substantial and the infused iced tea is so amazing! The martinis are delicious! read more

We sat for 15 min and no one came to see us for drinks or food. I saw at least 4 servers at the bar watching football. Another server went to see a table for 2 that was near us. She knew them because she ate some of their nachos and stood to chat. We were in the patio area. I went to the Hostess desk and told her we were leaving and why with a few choice words I told her to share with the Manager. Not the hostess's fault, I expressed my feelings to her. read more

RJ was always making sure we were doing okay, we made us feel welcome, very helpful and kind. Please recognize him and let him know he is doing a great job. He helped us with a gluten free to go order for our son, he made sure we got taken care of. Thank you RJ. read more

Second time here, and second disappointment. Had an obviously handicapped person with us, but the hostess still made us walk past MANY clean, empty tables to the far end of the room. She was so far ahead of us that I would have had to shout to get her attention, so we followed her. When I asked why she made us walk that far, she asked if we wanted to sit somewhere else (no comment). Every other restaurant offers us seating with the shortest walking distance as possible, but Five Four was oblivious. It was mid-afternoon, and not busy, but still took 25 minutes to get beer. It actually got served a minute after the food, which was served lukewarm. I asked how long the food had been sitting out and she asked if I wanted to talk to a manager. Never mind. It was Happy Hour with reduced prices on appetizers, but the check did not reflect the lower prices. We brought it to her attention, and she corrected it. The food was good, but the terrible service made the food less good. read more

Decent spot for a quick meal. We sat at the bar, and there were plenty of bartenders and servers offering to help, which made for fast and efficient service. The portion sizes were generous, and the food was good--not amazing, but solid for a casual bite. The ambiance was actually pretty nice for what it was--considering the affordable prices, I wouldn't have expected it to be as well-kept and inviting inside. Overall, a good option if you're in the area and want something quick and reasonably priced. read more

Food is great. Haven't had a bad meal there yet. But service is intermittently good and bad. Generally when sitting at the bar, it is great. Tied to eat last night at a table and it was like our party wasn't even there. 20 mins and other than water that was brought, hadn't even ordered yet. Ended up leaving as we just gave up. But food is overall great so give it a try and sit at the bar if possible. Management at a restaurant is hard and you will always have the one offs. read more

Good place to get food and drinks. Gets busy at happy hour and parking lot gets packed. Chuy is next door so that parking lot was full.

Curbside pickup: good service! I ordered a cheeseburger with fries. They were very tasty and delicious! Well satisfactory!

Went for Happy hour. Sat in the bar area. Prices for the appetizers were incredible. It was our first time there so we sampled many including the Crab Cakes, spinach and artichoke dip, and fried mushrooms .My favorite was the smash burger. The drinks from the bar were delicious as well. The restaurant was a nice place for all of us to get together for a great girls night out. Can't wait to go back read more

This place is great! Food was amazing and our server Angela was so sweet. Would def recommend!

Happy hour specials are great! Huge portions and amazing service. Great place to meet up after work and easy access from I35.

Best potato soup I have ever tasted! The food is consistently delicious! Lots of great menu options for everyone.

Great Brussel sprouts we're out of this world. I really liked this place. Great service and ambience.

Would not recommend. I ordered the kids' flank steak, for my baby, which was not only rock hard but also had a disturbing smell that resembled something rotten. It reminded me of a smell like 48-hour-old period blood on a pad--absolutely unappetizing. There was no way I would feed that to my child. I ordered the ribeye for myself, priced at $29, and while it was pink inside, it was incredibly dry and hard to the touch. Not sure how they managed that combination, but it wasn't enjoyable. I brought the issue to the waitress's attention, and she was kind enough to feel bad about it. She offered to have me speak with a manager, but with a fussy baby in tow, I declined. I did, however, urge her to notify the cooks and the manager to quality-check the kids' steaks because serving something like that is unacceptable. Despite the poor food quality, I still paid for it, and also left a 20% tip because the waitress was pleasant. Writing this review to warn others to be cautious and hope the restaurant takes better care in the future. read more

(DO NOT GO HERE) this is our first time going here and we took awhile to look over there menu. on the back of the menu there is a section for "mocktails" my wife is a very well experienced bartender she is 6 months very much pregnant and wanted to order a mocktail which is non alcoholic this was the first thing she ordered when approached by waitress she ordered a Paloma mocktail when it came i smelled it and it reeked of alcohol so i tasted it which it had alcohol in it good thing i tried it before she had a chance to or there would be a lawsuit involved. Im also a recovering alcoholic so for me to have to taste liquor in my wifes drink had me very upset I understand this is a draft house we went to try out a new food experience to see what the quality of food they had. Also i over heard the waitress telling the manager that my wife did not mention it would be a mocktail but that was the first word to come out my wifes mouth and she also pointed to it on the menu while mentioning "mocktail paloma with Tajin on rim" After the fact of the manager approached our table he asked if everything was okay I explained to him the situation he can tell i was very upset and wanted to make things right if my wife had drank a alcoholic beverage there wouldn't have been no fixing the situation so i paid for the Caesar salad with a $20 bill and left without saying anything. The manager ran after me and my wife im guessing he thought we didn't pay then i told him i left money on the table for the salad and walked to my car. we didnt even get our entrees yet which is the sad part didnt get the food experience we wanted. Which started a argument with me and my wife bc she was hungry and so was i hadn't eatten yet. also we were NOT id by the waitress if we were to order a alcoholic drink which is very unprofessional we both look very young i am 25 and my wife is 22 read more

lunch was awful, brought in a party 8 for lunch and the resturants manager could have cared less. I had to ask 4 times to turn on the heater, the waitress tried to take our order before the entire party arrived and disappeared when we were ready. We had to go to the hostess to find our waitress twice! The food was fine but the service was terrible. To make matters worse the table on the patio was broken as the tabletop was not secured, we were afraid it was going to break and fall apart. when the resturants first opened it was great and we loved it. we thought finally there was a great place for us to have as a regular spot but 2 months later it crashed and burned! we will never go back. read more

Outstanding food, and service . The place was very busy , so we had a wait of about 30 minutes, and.nowhere to wait except for the bar area, and that didn't really appeal to us, so we ended up just hanging out around the front. Yes, games and simulator, pickle ball courts etc, but we came to have dinner; read more
