    I was eager to try this spot out seeing as though I'm from Chicago myself. Located off of braker…read moreand 35 this restaurant is nestled between a few stores. Upon arriving it appeared closed you can't see inside at all but they were indeed open! I was told to sit anywhere of my choosing, establishment appeared clean it has a nice bar and a few big screen tv's for all the sports fanatics out there. I ordered a margarita for the drink and a thin crust pepperoni with mushrooms as well as truffle fries. The taste of the pizza itself was ok, but the crust given the tomato sauce made it feel a bit soggy including the mushrooms. The cheese was good and it had an ok flavor but overall I was a bit disappointed. However the truffle fries were delicious they were hot and very flavorful. The margarita drink was also pretty good Overall good service and it's nice to see something that reminds me of home however I'll give it some time before I revisit

    We came here on a slow Sunday evening after running some errands…read more The gentlemen helping us was really nice and attentive. They didn't have a full size pie so we got a 10" which ended up being plenty, happy we didn't get the big one now. We ended up having leftovers with a smaller one already! The crust was thin and crunchy. I usually don't go for it because I prefer a fluffy bread-y crust. Overall I liked that the sauce was really chunky, I like less creamy tomato sauces in general. Definitely will be back for dine in or a takeout in the future!

    One of the most authentic experiences I've had in Austin!…read more Small, homey seating inside but lots of lovely patio space outside. The woman at the front counter was lovely and recommended a Greek white wine for us, which was incredible. The food was top-notch. Super fresh and homemade baba ganoush and tzatziki sauce. Pitas were warm. Meat was juicy and flavorful. As we finished our meals, she brought out a piping hot plate of the Greek beignets - warm doughballs drizzled with honey and cinnamon - on the house. Would definitely return!

    OMG. This place is soooooo cute!!! We came for dinner and ordered their chicken and lamb plates…read more Both came with a generous serving of protein, salad, hummus, and 2 dolmades (?), which, according to google, are stuffed grape leaves that are served as appetizers, usually has a filling consisting of rice, herbs, oil, and meat. They cook their meat perfectly and not a lot of places can do that. My husband took photos for me, but it won't let me upload onto yelp due to heic tags vs jpg....Anyway.. Love the food and the atmosphere. Staff were friendly and nice. They even gave us a plate of beignets on the house! Super affordable prices! This little house, I'm assuming turned greek restaurant is so cozy and homey. The only thing is it's so far from us! But that won't stop us from coming again. Definitely, definitely recommend!

    The location of this Residence is located right off of 35. It is a high-traffic area which can be…read morefrustrating when getting in and out of the hotel. The hotel itself provides breakfast in the morning. The breakfast was plentiful. You also have the option to make your food in your room. There is a fridge, coffee maker, cooktop, and microwave. My stay at this hotel was pleasant, and I would recommend it. A great park is nearby and easy to get to by foot or car.

I got an ADA room even though I didn't need one and the handle on the door was "sticky" so I pretty much had to body slam it every time to get it to open. When I got into my room, there were towels folded into a dog shape on the bed. Cheesy but still a thoughtful touch. The front desk was always happy to provide me with extra water bottles. I didn't have a chance to sit down and try the breakfast, but I grabbed oranges to-go every morning and saw they had a variety of yogurts (Chobani, Activia) as well as the standard scrambled eggs, sausages, granola etc. Not the worst place to stay, but given the number of hotels in Austin, I'd probably stay somewhere else next time. 3.75
