"Everything on the menu sounded amazing so it was tough to choose. Our server was wonderful and service overall was great. Our cocktails were PERFECT. We LOVED the french onion soup and wedge salad. We probably could have just had these and another app because we got full so fast. My husband got the NY Strip which as good buy not $90 good. It was a hair overcooked. My seafood risotto was a little too lemony but made for delicious leftovers. The truffle bucatini was REALLY good. I'd definitely come back again for happy hour for all the drinks and apps."

"We first came across Snooze in Denver and were pleasantly surprised to see one here. Menu remains the same and so does the great breakfasts. Choice was our problem. We eventually went for corn beef hash.. the huge taco.. egg biscuit and a plate of pancakes for the table.. Just amazing the whole thing .. Server was terrific too .. As far as breakfast goes .. think Snooze takes all the beating .. Awesome way to start the day ! Comes highly recommended.. Enjoy !"

"I was thrilled to stop by this restaurant while visiting Austin. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the warm welcome from the hostess, and my experience only got better with our cheerful server, Jannah, whose outstanding service truly elevated our meal. We absolutely loved the BST omelet, which was a delightful mix of flavors. The pancakes initially seemed unremarkable, but they turned out to be incredibly delicious, perfectly balancing sweetness. I definitely plan to come back whenever I’m in the area."

"I literally just made a review but I’m going to make another one because for whatever reason someone or somehow it got deleted. I used to be a regular at Bouldin and the service was always amazing but my last two visits have been by far horrible. The service has been so poor that I felt disgusted when leaving the restaurant. There are two girls that work there with light brown hair and blue eyes. Pretty sure one of their names is Rego. My boyfriend and I were served by her before and she seemed nothing but annoyed and couldn’t care less if we were in her section. Barley even interacted with us or asked how our meal was and just seemed disgusted by us, just being rude passive aggressive for no reason at all. I’m a server and I KNOW this isn’t how you treat your guests and the same thing happened tonight. She just seemed like she couldn’t care less if we were there and just seemed annoyed? I don’t mind paying the gratuity if I’m being treated decently but that wasn’t the case and I feel as though they feel like they think they can get away with behaving like mean girls just because there’s a gratuity. I have friends that dine here as well and they have had the same experience. I’m not one to write reviews but I feel this needs to come across a managers attention so they know who they are hiring and how they are treating customers. Really disgusted and disappointing and if this gets deleted again I’ll write another review or just call the store to speak to a manager. Disgusted by their behavior."
