Eighteen Ninety Grille and Lounge -Food CA (Near Granbury)

Steffani Papanikolaou Came here with my husband for lunch and it did not disappoint. Was quite busy and sat at the high top which was fine. Mikey was our waiter and he was attentive but not over bearing. Oysters were some of the freshest weve had in Austin. We love small east coast oysters and they had plenty to choose from. Food quality is well worth the wait. Making a reservation next time to enjoy a meal at a table!

Amber Mofford had an amazing experience thanks to our server, Tera. From the very beginning, he was attentive, genuine, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. He took the time to adjust recommendations to our palate while still staying true to what the kitchen offers, which made every dish even more enjoyable. What really stood out was how kind and family-oriented he was with us. He made everyone feel comfortable and welcomed, and his warmth truly elevated our entire dining experience. Tera went above and beyond in every way—thoughtful, personable, and professional. He is the kind of server that makes you want to come back. Truly outstanding service.

Bo J My dining experience at Masraffs for Houston Restaurant Weeks was truly exceptional. The elegant ambiance and impeccable service set the stage for an unforgettable meal, and the menu they offered for the event was outstanding. For my appetizer, I had the Jumbo Lump Crab Vol Au Vent. The pastry was light and flaky, and it was filled with a generous portion of delicious jumbo lump crab, served in a rich and savory mushroom and white wine sauce. It was a perfect start to the evening. The main course was the Pacific Lane Snapper. The fish was cooked to perfection—moist and flaky with a beautifully seared skin. It was served over a delectable sauce and alongside a flavorful rice and vegetable medley. The combination of textures and flavors was fantastic and showcased the chefs expertise. Dessert was the perfect ending. The Golden Delicious Apple Cobbler was a masterpiece. The crumble topping was buttery and crisp, complementing the warm, spiced apples inside. Topped with a generous scoop of what I believe was bourbon vanilla ice cream and a fresh mint leaf, it was a truly decadent and comforting treat. My wife had the Banana Bread Trifle, which was equally impressive. Served in a charming glass jar, it was a layered dessert with rich banana custard, fluffy vanilla whipped cream, and a satisfying Nilla wafer crumble. Masraffs delivered an incredible fine dining experience for a great cause. Every dish was a work of art, and the quality of the ingredients and presentation was top-notch. I highly recommend it for a special occasion or just to treat yourself to an amazing meal.

Patrick Kennedy Amazing servers, amazing food, and great drinks. The menu is German inspired and the quality is astounding. They have a great selection of cocktails, wine, and imported German beer. The schnitzel was amazing both the pork and the duck, someone in our party also ordered the lamb chops which were also incredible. The appetizers also didn’t disappoint. I would highly recommend this experience.

Sarah Haight One of the best in Austin for sure. Better than Este! I recommend reservations, there was a line before they even opened. Parking is a bit tricky, super small lot but paid street parking available. The staff was friendly and cool. The vibe inside was dark and moody, lots of conversations. Their tequila selection was sooo impressive. I hate when you go to a place and ask for a fancy tequila and they are out of it. They were also SO quick with the drinks. Impressively fast, we were never left thirsty. The food was incredible. Loved the ceviche with the apple broth. The tuna hibiscus aqua chile was great too. Loved the frijoles de veneno AND OMG THE HOUSE MADE TORTILLAS. Also, you have to get the sweet papas (at the bottom of the menu). Amazing. Loved every bite. The desserts were impressive too. The seasonal scoop was actually our favorite bite, lavender. So gentle and smooth. The chocotaco is a MUST. Not like the one you ate as a kid! We stayed for over 2 hours, left stuffed and happy.

Justin Lui Fine, I’ll give it 5 stars. I’m super cheap and the Tater dish with green beans, mushroom, and cheese is pretty boss. It’s small for $16 (about the size of a large gumbo in NOLA valued at $10), but it’s quite tasty. The Caesar salad? Good, solid. The spinach and artichoke dip? Good but even better with their fried bread dipping chip thing. Boss, and quite unique of a design (instead of a chip or bowtie noodle). Their $45 steak? Excellent. In Houston or Dallas, it’s going to be $65 for the same steak with smooth, creamy mash potatoes and a subtle crunchy, well flavored green beans. Overall, pricey but it’s in a fancy hotel. Service at the bar table? Weak. The server is running the bar and the bar-tables so he couldn’t bounce from bar to our table very easily. Nice guy just mostly busy. So…5 star still b/c of the food.
