Looking for a twist to the usual brunch menu, we tried the asian fusion restaurant @theriseeatery. Their brunch menu takes inspiration from many different cuisines, with Eggs Benedict, Ramen and even Congee making an appearance. We tried "Hog it", a smoked pork belly skillet with a couple of soft poached eggs, and their daily special, a savoury buttermilk pancake topped with pulled pork. Not only did they both look great, but they also bring with it some truly unique flavours. It's definitely a place to visit if you are looking for something that stands out from the norm, and we are eager to try their dinner menu next!

Best representation of real food from Texas. Local, fresh and made in the restaurant - best food in Austin. Brought some friends from NYC - also blown away. Great job to the crew and Jesse the chef !!!

Holy Crap. This place was soooo good. I was worried it might be boring pub food or something and it blew my mind. Completely surpassed my expectations! We way over ordered but enjoyed every bite, stuffing ourselves way past the limit. Had great food for our son. Also, really affordable beer and whiskey flights. Next time we are in Portland, we will definitely go back.

Had a late lunch here. Was seated right away. Had a choice of patio or inside seating. (It's south Texas, it's August, it's a no brainer) Hostess placed our party inside, but it still felt like outdoors in a way. Was seated in the back & we enjoyed the view overlooking the creek. We had the barbacoa stackers (3 to an order) for an appetizer, which honestly that alone was plenty for a lunch in itself. Had the chicken enchilada casserole (comes with a fried egg on top) which was pretty good. Hubby ordered the bacon bbq burger. That looked good however the bun seemed a little too thick & "bread-y" (see pic). Wait staff was spot on. Had tea glasses topped off. Bonus? He asked before just dumping tea into my glass.. (Hey, I go through great trouble to get the exact sweetness/tea ratio just right Lol) Overall nice ambiance, decent food, & great wait staff. Will return.
