Mark BDecember 7, 2018Great food and service. Steaks are done well. Can’t miss with the various sides. Valet parking available on 7th at the Hotel ($9). Over-all good experience in an upscale (not over the top) restaurant.
Russ HarlanMay 27, 2015Fantastic. I had the rainbow trout. The green chile mac 'n cheese is one the the tastiest sides ever. The service was friendly and masterful. Finished with the Mexican creme brulee. I was delighted.
Austin ChronicleMarch 4, 2013Three words: Big Ass Burger. Roaring Fork is actually a lot classier than the name of its signature dish would suggest – think luxe leather couches – but that burger is to die for, y'all.
Upvoted 4 weeks ago- CultivoraMarch 18, 2012Kettle of green chilli pork + fondue pot w/ lamb chops are great. If you're looking for something lighter, try the shrimp and avocado salad. Truth be told, everything we tried so far has been amazing.
Hanna MaierFebruary 17, 2016Me and my fiance ate fish there! It was truly amazing! I don't like that they haven't one vegetarian option but I guess that will come sooner or later.definitely a good place to eat with fresh quality
David PittsOctober 14, 2014Awesome spot downtown. Parking free in street on Sunday. Had the half rotisserie chicken, super good and enough to take home and eat cold later the same night. Guacamole was also really fresh
Naz F. GérdabiSeptember 9, 2014Came here just for the Green Chili Mac n Cheese...OMG! A must!! Friend had The Pork Carnitas and he claims its the best he has ever had! 🍴
Jackie FrederickJune 12, 2014The Waldorf salad was amazing. So delicious. The mexican corn was also excellent. My bf has the burger and it was alright but not as good as the other 2 thing. HH is a great deal
Jim BaileyAugust 2, 2015Enjoyed chorizo mussels for appetizer and a nice pork shoulder carnitas for main course both had exceptional flavor.
Elizabeth McGeheeAugust 30, 2013Probably one of the most fantastically delicious meals I've ever had in my whole entire life. JUST GO!
Pamm Z-HNovember 9, 2013Bacon wrapped tenderloin - tasty! Grilled mahi mahi tacos - life changing! Believe the hype - the green chili mac and cheese IS #amazeballs!
Carlee SmithFebruary 6, 2018The Mac and cheese is amazing! The roasted half chicken is also really good!
Michael OlivierApril 20, 2013The cedar planked salmon is honestly one of the best meals I have had anywhere. And consistent!! Delicious two times now!!
Austin American-StatesmanApril 5, 2011Try the Big Ass Burger. A mile-high burger, with a brioche bun and a beef patty the size of a rodeo buckle. Bonus: Follow link for a their green chili pork recipe... Read more
Danika BrownMay 10, 2013Excellent food, good bourbon. Maddie is a fantastic bartender. Let her make all your decisions and treat her right!
José AyalaNovember 9, 2016Just a couple of salads for vegetarians, and they have a lot of added sugars. The wine list is long and interesting though.
@rynamiteMarch 15, 2012Lamp Chop Fondue, Bacon Wrapped Pork Tenderloin, Cheese Grits, Mexican Street Corn. #Amazeballs One of my fav spots in Austin @rynomite
Martin ThomasMay 13, 2012The fish tacos have the biggest chunks of perfectly grilled fish. Order the 2 instead of the 3, unless you're REALLY, really hungry.
Greg RaaumJuly 5, 2010Try the pork carnitas. Ask for it with a side of bbq sauce and get the mashed potatoes instead of the normal side. It's much better. The big ass burger is also very good.
Lynette YoungMarch 14, 2011The bacon wrapped pork loin is nothing short of amazing! Service is about the best I have seen in a long time, I highly recommend.
Lynn MJanuary 28, 2012Best two things on the menu:1. The Kettle Of Green Chili Pork2. The Green Chili Mac & Cheese
Brian StraussMay 15, 2018Good service. Decent carnitas. Good for a hotel restaurant. Not a destination spot.
Chuck CanningDecember 12, 2011Don't order the Salmon BLT - it should be called the TLBS - $14 for 2-3 oz of Salmon, 2 strips of bacon with lots of tomatoe, lettuce and pickles
Keith WarnerMarch 17, 2011The queso and fresh salsa is great. That and a couple beers during happy hour is $11. How can you go wrong?

Martha GabrielOctober 27, 2011The crab cake and the shrimp on cheese are delicious!! Great place -- food & service.
Kristin MasonMarch 12, 2012The Mexican street corn is spicy and delicious. Individual portion is quite large, so share it!
Adobe SXSWMarch 9, 2010A slightly more upscale lunch and dinner alternative. Whether it's a pizza or grilled goodness, their wood fired style will make you smile.
Oshina ProwseJuly 7, 2012Mexican street corn is amazing. With the queso-n-guac appetizer it's practically a meal.
- Pamela CarpenterMarch 13, 2011The green chili mac n cheese is to die for. The tortilla soup is a close second.
Courtney RileyJanuary 15, 2012green chiles? check! mac & cheese? check! iron pot? check! such a yummy display of mac & cheese!
