The portions were just right. The deserts were fabulous as well. An Austin treat... more

My husband and I had dinner at Eastside Cafe on a Friday night. Since we did not have reservations, we expected to wait a while for our table.

Eastside Cafe offers a variety of innovative and interesting items on its menu. They utilize the fact that there is a huge garden on the property, and serve all sorts of fresh, recently harvested, vegges.....in unusual and wonderful dishes. The wine list is excellent as well. This place was so good, my group went there TWICE in 3 days for... more

I personally like to see and be able to recognize every morsel of food before consumption. Naturally, I tend to stay away from eating anything that is minced, especially meat, but O.M.G...Eastside Cafe has the best meatloaf ever! Is there is such a thing as "gourmet" meatloaf? My husband and had brunch there recently and that's what he had ordered.... more

east side cafe is completely fantastic. the food is super fresh and delicious, and often unusual. the waitstaff is knowledgeable and friendly, and the ambiance is very pleasant. their garden is amazing, and they use fresh vegetables from the garden daily. this is one of the only places I'll order fish; it's always fresh and very good. more

Good food.
