Great little BBQ place in Austin. Conveniently located downtown and open early (although they don't have BBQ until 11am). Not really a typical BBQ atmosphere, but it is in the sort of corporate - financial district. The BBQ was good, though.

I had such a positive experience here today. The employees were kind and prompt. There was no line for chicken sandwiches. Manager Anthony is doing something right.

This has to be one of the worst ventilated cigar bars I have ever visited. The had fans, some very small, to circulate the air. I'm talking about plug in fans you would use at home. It was not helpful and the place was a big smoke cloud especially on the first floor. The upstairs was less smokey but still not ideal. Food: We were seated at approx 8:30pm (they open at 7p) on a Monday evening. Everything we wanted to order they did not have. No passion fruit mojito. No Philly cheesesteak egg rolls. No lamb chops. I ordered the vegan sliders. She neglected to tell me that there were out of 3 of the 6 toppings. Missing tofu mayo, avocado, and onions. So I was left with a dry ass slider. I would have opted for something else if I would have known. Friends enjoyed the lemon pepper wings and the spinach artichoke dip. Service: Our waiter was good. It was busy so she wasn't as attentive but when she was present she did well. The hostess was very friendly as well. Conclusion: I will not return. The ventilation issues make the experience less enjoyable. It is a very beautiful establishment. The decor is very nice. They could benefit from some better light music to match the vibe. The music sounded like elevator music. If they work on those few things and do a better job at ordering food so they don't run out off stuff so early during service, then maybe I will return.
By Design Pizza

I really liked this place - it was sad we were the only ones in there. I hope it makes it. It's a similar style to MOD Pizza where you can choose one of their creations or choose your own toppings. I like it better because their crust is a little more substantial than MOD and you can really pile on the toppings without it falling apart when you try to eat it. They are also very generous with the toppings and don't skimp on the cheese. Pizzas were baked quickly and were really good. $3.50 beer during Happy Hour which goes until 6. Wine is discounted as well, but they only have mini bottles of Sutter Home...no real wine - that's my only negative.

In the area today with my wife and daughter. My wife found this one on Yelp so we decided to try it out. We definitely weren't disappointed. I had the "Smokey" sandwich (awesome) and my wife got the egg salad sandwich (also quite awesome). We want to come back and try their breakfast. Service was very quick and friendly. A lot of regulars in this place. Love those kind of places. I will be back for sure!

Absolutely amazing place to eat authentic Indian food. They have 2 chefs - one for North Indian food and one for South Indian food. Both of them make amazing dishes.
