    Wood Grilled Salmon
    Stephanie C.

    This place is known for providing good southern comfort food. My friends and I tried the prime rib and Gouda stack, the chicken and waffles, their mashed potatoes, their salmon, macaroni and cheese, and their whiskey cake. The whiskey cake is probably this restaurant's saving grace as the cake is decadent moist, and the combination of the pecans with the caramel and the whipped cream all just make it so delicious. It was definitely worth the wait to have it at the end and in retrospect, it probably would have done well to have first since the food that we ordered was a little more on the lackluster side. I found it hard to be impressed by the prime rib and Gouda stack as they were no defining flavors for this rather expensive sandwich and the mac and cheese was also not very memorable. When it comes to the service provided at the restaurant, there were many times where it felt as though our table had been forgotten to be waited upon, despite there not being many other people at the restaurant. Overall, I think my experience at Whiskey Cake was OK and while I may not return for the food necessarily, I would for the cake.

    For me, it almost hit the mark but it seemed to be missing something. The seasoning could've been more robust but I want to try it again before I make a final judgement.

    Hmm. not too sure how to feel about it. I loved whiskey cake so much when I lived in Katy -- so much so that I would take everyone who visited me there. but since moving to austin three years ago, I haven't had it + was excited to try this location. we went for brunch and the menu was pretty limited on options. it's almost as if you were forced to select a sandwich because the actual brunch meals made no sense/felt lazy. for example, the chicken and waffles were chicken *tenders*, not regular fried chicken.. that feels very lazy. I order the yard bird. it was an oven baked chicken with veggies. good, but not worth $22. I could've made it at home. everyone else at the table basically ordered pancakes with eggs or French toast because the menu was literally that limited, there was no "oo I want to try that!" moment. The service was great as we were a big party. The staff kept coming to our table to apologize on the long wait times; which was confusing because there was barely anyone in the restaurant... but the parking lot was full? where were all of those people? I don't know. the experience wasn't bad but, it didn't hold up to the standard of whiskey cake that I'm used to. especially for $66. the Katy location was so good, it even smelled like whiskey cake. and I remembered this restaurant brand having more culinary forward items like their blue cheese chips during happy hour. (which i lovedddd) If I'm ever out in Round Rock again, I may give it another try, but it won't be for brunch.

    Wow. Just wow. This place is amazing. The atmosphere is laid back. They even have some community dining tables. Music is towards the alt. The servers are sooooo friendly. Everything about this place rocks. The food was delicious! We tried the goat cheese appetizer with sourdough. They mix it at the table which is cool because they explain what each of the ingredients is. I had a steak salad and my friend had the chopped chicken salad. Both amazing. But the winner is that whiskey cake. So luxurious. Not too sweet. With a huge heaping of real whipped cream. Easily can feel 3 or 4 people! Cocktails are refined and boozy!

    I really like Whiskey Cake Kitchen and frequent some of the locations in the Houston area. This was my first time dining at the Round Rock location. They're all set up pretty similarly so it felt familiar when I walked in. Our server was Kayla. She was very nice and attentive. Drinks: I started with the Pineapple Cilantro Smash. I absolutely love cilantro, and really enjoy it in cocktails. This drink was good, but it had a spicy kick to it (from the Scrappy's Firewater Bitters). I also had the Guava Gimlet which is one of my faves. It's sweet and smooth. Apps: I cannot resist the Deviled Eggs! One thing I really appreciate about Whiskey Cake is that the toppings change seasonally and you never know what you're going to get. At the time of our visit (November 2025), the eggs had grilled onions, chives, a cream sauce, and a potato chip! It was different but so creative and delicious! We also had the Fire Roasted Brussels Sprouts which we thoroughly enjoyed. The Boursin and Parmesan Cheeses were so good! Entrée: I had the Fish 'N Chips. Nothing could have prepared me for the portion of this entrée. It was easily enough for two people to share! The fish took up the entire plate. I really enjoyed the malt vinegar and tartar sauce, especially with the lemon juice that I squeezed on the fish. The chips that came with it were tasty! It was so much food! My mom had the Grilled Shrimp Rigatoni while my stepdad had the Wood Grilled Salmon. They both enjoyed their food. Dessert: We had to have the Whiskey Cake (which is the only dessert on the menu). The cake is served warm and it is so good! I love the house made vanilla whipped cream and I like that they give an entire bowl of it for the table. I really appreciate how consistent Whiskey Cake Kitchen is with their food and service. Hopefully Austin will get more locations in the future.

    Holy shit, when are we going back? Some friends were in from Houston and made us a brunch reservation. They were familiar with the restaurant but I was a first timer (first of many I foresee!) I wish I had taken pictures of everything. I ordered the fish n chips and it was the best I've had in austin so far! My other half got the crab Benedict and *chefs kiss* I wanted to order the Fried green tomatoes but they were out today, so that just gives me another reason to go back. Our server was good, especially considering we were a table of 9 and not the only large group she had! Heads up, Apple Maps will take you through the Rudy's parking lot, just go with it. Bathrooms are clean and parking was decent! Highly recommend!!!

    It has been a few years since I have been to Whiskey Cake. A friend who lives in Round Rock, TX invited me to the Whiskey Cake happy hour aka Social Hour (3-6 pm). Whiskey Cake has a warm, homey and rustic feeling. The happy hour menu has a variety of items to choose from. The Social Hour has reasonably priced menu items, which are primed for sharing. The Social Hour features small plates including Wagyu corn dogs, BBQ spiced pork rinds, blue cheese kettle chips, grit fritters, and meat and cheese boards. Social Hour usually features discounted classic cocktails such as margaritas, martinis, guava gimlets, and house wines and select draft beers. That is the good news regarding Whiskey Cake. Now for the not so good news...The focal point of this Whiskey is the three long high-bar tables in the center of the room with folks on both sides of the tables. There is a small partition separating you from the guests next two you. The noise level was so high in this Whiskey Cake I could hardly hear my friend speak. It felt like we were yelling and not having a normal conversation. The likelihood we will return to Whiskey Cake is extremely low.

    Legitimately the best meal we had in all of Texas - and might be in the top 3 meals of all time for me! All of our food was incredible and the service was fantastic!

    Fire Roasted Brussels Sprouts
    Amanda R.

    Grabbed lunch here with a big group of family and was pleasantly surprised. We had a reservation, which I would recommend for a large party on a Saturday afternoon. I got an espresso martini and it was a little sweeter than I prefer, but still good. We shared some appetizers as a table: deviled eggs and biscuits and gravy. Both were very good. I shared the Brussels sprouts and fish and chips with my cousin. Delish! We finished with a shared sticky toffee and it was incredible! Highly recommend if in the area!

    This was my second time at Whiskey Cake, and the vibe is warm and fun, and it was definitely busy, so I'm really glad we made a reservation. Without one, the wait would have been rough. We decided to make a meal out of appetizers and ordered four to share. Everything came out of the kitchen crazy fast and was served hot and fresh. The charcuterie board was the best one. We also had the deviled eggs, fried green tomatoes, and the onion dip, and all of it was really tasty. We planned on sharing the whiskey cake for dessert, but we were completely stuffed and couldn't eat another bite. Portions were generous, and we still ended up bringing leftovers home. Service was friendly and checked in just enough. Overall, it's a solid spot with good food, a lively atmosphere, and it's a good idea to book a reservation ahead of time. I'd definitely go back again.

    Wow!! We were looking for a brunch spot in Round Rock and this place surpassed all of our expectations. The food was superb, everything we ordered came out hot, super fresh and absolutely amazing! Service was quick and efficient, even for a busy weekend day during brunch. If you visit, you MUST order the jalapeño biscuits - they are incredible. Also highly recommend the short stack pancakes and the steak & egg hash - both were to die for. The indoor seating is vast and the decor/furniture makes this place such a vibe. Highly recommend - I would come here every weekend if I lived in the area!

    The Pork chop was amazing
    Robert F.

    It's gone down hill. So basically they keep removing amazing items off the menu and replacing them with mediocre cheaper or just plain old worse items. I don't buy for one bit all the items they have removed over the years weren't selling well enough to keep so they eighty-sixed them. Croquet madam for example was amazing not just by my standards but people used to post it all the time and so what do they naturally do they removed it from brunch and replaced it with more burgers dry scrambled eggs and dry biscuits and tasteless roasted dry chicken. Same with the chicharrones they used to have for happy hour they sold so well they where consistently on everyone's table when I'd go have beer with my wife also a highly posted item on social media and where recommended every time we went. What do they do ? They removed them permanently and pretended they never existed lol. Again I'm just giving a couple out of many examples of why this place is working against its own interests. Most people I ask if they want to eat there or have been there lately have told me it's no longer on their radar because the food they do keep on the menu is just so so and not worth the price. Great ambiance nice staff mediocre to just ok drinks and slightly overpriced for what you get. The place is very clean nicely decorated pretty warm and inviting yet the food doesn't match which makes it a huge missed for me personally. If you read most of my reviews I always consider everything as a whole and rarely nag about stuff because I want to be positive and highlight great businesses not rant and complain like other people with a sense of entitlement do. Meaning you can't just chalk this up to me being one of those consistently negative reviewers that just wants to feel special and important, I truly know this place can do better and have experienced when there where good and know they can come back before it's too late. I want them to succeed and start serving that awesome food I had once enjoyed coming here for. Yet I can't help but feel like the response to this will be something related to how they have never had such complaints and everyone seems to enjoy the hard work they put into making amazing food and sorry I don't also enjoy it ,lol . I really want to like this place yet if I lie to you and say it's perfect and everything is amazing just to flatter the restaurant then what's the use of any of these reviews if flattery is more important than just stating what you don't like about the experience. Either way some people will still like this place for their own reasons meaning my opinion is just subjective to my taste and I encourage others to take these opinions with a grain of salt and see for themselves ,as we all should.

    This was my first time at Whiskey Cake, a chain of restaurants owned by a conglomerate that also owns Velvet Taco. Others in our group of 5 had enjoyed this restaurant on multiple occasions. We had reservations and were seated on the glassed-in porch on the North side of the restaurant. While the ambience of that location was great, the space was quite noisy, making it difficult to hear one another at times. The area where we were sitting seemed to empty out around 7 or so. With happy hour ending at 6, the early clientele likely finished around that time. Service was excellent, and food and drinks were tasty and innovative. The menu is pretty limited, so it's worth staying open-minded and trying something you wouldn't normally choose. My husband and I did that by ordering the prime rib and gouda stack, a sandwich packing a flavor punch with its blend of ingredients. This came with a choice of a side. Others in our group ordered salmon, fish and chips, and another variety of sandwich with fries. There are also salad and beef options. The ketchup served with the fries was exceptionally good. I was told it's made in house. For dessert, everyone had the only choice on the menu, (surprise!) Whiskey Cake. The chocolately, pecan-topped moist cake was served atop 2 sauces and topped by the waitstaff with fresh whipped cream. My husband and I shared one (it was more than enough for us). Pricing is definitely on the high side for what you get. It's justified on some level by the quality and freshness of ingredients, but between the limited menu, pricing, and noise level, this isn't a restaurant I'd visit on a regular basis. We enjoyed the experience and definitely recommend giving the place a try.

She walked us through all of the flight options, and let us know that everything was made fresh to order, so there would be a short wait. I appreciated the transparency, and when our food arrived I soon found out it was worth the wait. The standout for me was the grilled cheese waffle with tomato soup. The soup tasted homemade, with bright tomato flavor and generous chunks of tomato throughout. It was fresh, and absolutely delicious. The grilled cheese featured a flavorful muenster and provolone instead of the standard cheddar you find everywhere else, and the waffle itself was crispy on the outside with a perfect gooey cheese pull. My friend enjoyed the strawberry and cream waffle with Biscoff spread since I'm not a huge fan of Biscoff. I did try the strawberries and cream, though, and both were excellent. The strawberries were fresh, sweet, and firm, while the cream tasted rich and homemade. The chicken and waffles were outstanding. The chicken was crispy, juicy, and well seasoned, and the waffle had a wonderful texture: light and airy inside with a crisp exterior. It was served with syrup and a remoulade-style sauce. The restaurant is clean, welcoming, and thoughtfully decorated with fun murals, word art and nods to Round Rock. For a first visit, Waffle Love made a fantastic impression. The next time I'm in Round Rock, I'll be ordering another waffle flight, probably the same 3 selections, just without the Biscoff spread.

    I'm a hundred percent returning…read more I did not realize how nice of a place this was when I pulled up. I feel terrible walking in after doing yard work. I just ran out to grab somethings and hadn't had breakfast. So I just typed in coffee place and chose the most unique name near me. Oof I walked in and it was beautiful with what looked like gourmet pastries and coffee. Not a place to be covered in dirt and grass clippings. But I was already there, the coffee smelt good and I saw a matcha croissant (I love matcha) so I ordered to go. The girls in front of me bought the last one, but they very quickly made me another one and they were far too nice The food was spectacular and the best I've had in a long moment! The coffee was amazing! The service a 10 out of 10! And the vibe was so cute and relaxing

    Maybe they were having an off day because I only saw one other review about the wait time... don't…read morecome here if you are in any sort of hurry. We were exited to take my niece to the 'unicorn place' and support a plant based shop. It was super cute and she was excited about the decor and unicorns. Came a little after 9am on a Friday, it was maybe half full, but it took about 40 minutes to get two lemon tofu toasts. I was patient until my niece was getting antsy, she finished her pastry, we both finished our mediocre coffees, still no toast... I checked and the Apple Pay time stamp went through more than 30 minutes prior. I asked staff if our toast was still coming and they replied rudely like I was being a jerk to even ask. Pagers for food when they went off were obnoxious beeping. Just give people a table number and carry it out to them. Maybe they have one little toaster and person in the back? That said once the food came, the tofu was DELICIOUS, and a large portion. We could have split it. Croissant was unimpressive as was their chocolate croissant. Macarons were tasty, but not with the signature chew that ones made with egg whites would have. $$ Two plain lattes, two lemon toasts, a chocolate croissant and 6 macarons with a $5 tip was $88. Pretty ridiculous, and I am used to California, Bay Area prices.
