Even though they normally require 48 hours notice, they were able to accommodate me, no problem! I didn't spend much time inside as I just went to pick it up, but it's a very cute store that gives ice cream shop vibes. The cheesecake was AMAZING, we couldn't stop eating it. Definitely recommend the Pie Bar for all your pie needs!

There is seating inside and outside the indoor seating is so cozy, fun and cute! It was my first time there and the customer service was excellent they took the time to give recommendations on the different desserts. We ordered the Banana Cream Mousse Pie, The Turtle Mini Cheesecake, and the Plain Mini Cheesecake all were very tasty but my favorite was the Plain Mini Cheesecake so creamy and such a classic!

And their donuts aren't the traditional kind, as shown below. My favorite donut was the one with strawberries & Nutella on it. The cream cheese one was good too. Also, they have good energy & ambiance at this location in South Austin, and they even have cornhole boards to play on while they make your donuts. Definitely recommend this spot!

They make everything on the spot and it did take a while. The mini donut holes were amazing. Any place that has a burger called the Ron Burgundy is okay with me. A few of the other customers ordered the Ron Burgundy and the Mother Clucker fried chicken strips - they looked delicious, probably would take me straight thru the week. A cool outdoor area, with tall white couches and an amazing, old, live oak (I think?) tree.

Honestly, I told my husband it could be a spot I'd be a regular at if the changes keep trending the way they are! Loved the new bartop and setup, and how it has an alternative feel to it between the look and music. Nice that it's not just another sports bar. The service was great, and everyone got a really genuine greeting when they walked through the door (which has been lacking on menchaca lately). Loved the option of late night food as well. We had already had dinner but the sandwich next to me looked amazing. Looking forward to stopping by again.

Perfect Saturday night vibes.

I haven't been able to eat a corndog since becoming pescatarian 10+ years ago, so having a veggie…read morecorndog was a highlight for me! I first tried the Corndog Company at Blues on the Green. I was confused when they asked if I wanted honey drizzled on it, because I have never heard of this combination before? I declined, and also because I knew I wanted to dip in ketchup. The crunchy batter on the corndog is SO good! Thank you for making a veg option. I saw them at the COTA amphitheatre for a concert and had to get one again. Nice people and great corndogs!

If you look up "Cheap Thrills" in the Oxford English Dictionary,…read more The definition is "Fried Oreos at the Corndog Company in Manchaca, Texas." Nothing else describes the concept of Cheap Thrills so well. And let me tell you, I was 100% thrilled. * * * The Corndog Company is a total gas. It is located on the grounds of the Watering Bowl, a state of the art dog park that has everything dogs or their owners could want. The Corndog Company will sell you single hot dogs chopped up into little pieces to give to your dog. I have no doubt this is 100% thrills for the dog. There is a dog grooming truck - which is more for the owners than for Fido. There is a huge yard to run around with other dogs - and there is a tiny side yard for small timid dogs who don't want to rough and tumble with the big dogs. There is a lovely bar with coffee as well, to keep the owners sufficiently lubricated and mellow, or caffeinated and perky. There is a large screen where the guys can watch their football game. The actual dog park has old growth trees and plenty of shade. The Texas landscape is easy on the eyes. * * * But to my mind, the Corndog Company food truck is the star attraction. The corndogs are everything you could possibly want a corndog to be. If there is a Pantheon of Corndogs, these corndogs go in it. The dogs themselves come in five flavors - but I honestly don't think the actual hot dog under that corn bread makes a whole lot of difference. Once it is wrapped in that corn bread, and then drizzled with honey and then covered with mustard or catsup or sweet habanero mustard, the dog itself could be whatever. Actually your corn dog will be more than drizzled with mustard or catsup or sweet habanero mustard. The holes on top of the dispensers are cut large. The dispensers will blast out your mustard or whatever like a fire hydrant. Expect to be wiping off your dog with your French fries. Also expect to be visiting your dry cleaner the next day. The corndogs are good enough however that even with an Atlantic Ocean of mustard on your corndog, that corndog will still taste incredible. The honey they put on the corndog before you start messing with the condiments is a huge component of what makes those dogs good. The cornbread itself is absolutely positively divine. The corndog itself is also absolutely filling. I am used to corndogs being somewhat of a shabby skimpy snack. These will fill you up big time, let there be no doubt on that point. * * * Dessert can be either Fried Milky Way or the Fried Oreos. I haven't tried the Fried Milky Way ... But the Fried Oreos are 1000% Decadence on a stick. The Oreos kind of melt inside turning them into a cookies and cream granular filling. The inside of your fried Oreo sort of looks like caviar Most of what you get is the cornbread coating with hot comforting chocolate and vanilla cream inside. Cornbread with hot comforting chocolate and vanilla cream inside is a good thing. Never mind the Oreo melting. I melted. I didn't want to be anywhere else on the planet. * * * I am just as happy not to own a dog. I don't have to walk it at night. I don't have to come home to feed it. I don't have to play blame games over whether the dog or the humans were responsible for passing gas. But if I am going to go to the Corndog Company, I do NOT want to have to bring my dog along. Who wants to pay attention to a dog when your eyes are closed and you are flying around the universe because you have just had legendary fried Oreos?

The cake was gorgeous and absolutely…read moredelicious - seriously the best cake I've ever had, which I would never expect to be saying about a wedding cake. It was so moist, and the frostings/fillings weren't too sweet or overpowering. All her ingredients are fresh and you can really tell this is a handmade masterpiece. She has countless unique and classic flavors to choose from and you can customize as well. All of our guests LOVED it and raved about it for days after. Whenever I asked guests if they had tried the cake yet, most people said they'd tried at least two of the flavors, if not all three. The tasting and ordering process was also so easy, and Mariah is a such a sweet person and very professional to work with. I can't recommend Rayne Desserts enough.

It was everything I envisioned and then more! When friends ask to see pictures of our wedding I show pictures of the cake first. Rayne let us pick up samples of the flavors we wanted to try. She made full 2 full sized cupcakes for us to try. We were able to cut them in pieces and include family members in the tasting! We ended up picking the Strawberries and Champagne flavor. It tasted wonderful and was a perfect "romantic " wedding flavor. I let Mariah know I wanted a two tier naked frosted cake with silver foil. I got just that with the most gorgeous piping I have ever seen! It was better than I could have pictured. Also, my florist brought over a bunch of random flowers. Mariah picked the perfect ones and arranged them flawlessly on the cake. Rayne Dessert is a rare find. I would recommend her for ANY event! 10/10 She made my wedding day so special because of how beautiful the cake was!
