The Local - Austin, Texas

The host was very nice just entering! I had the parfait and it was delicious ? The breakfast looked simple but that's all I needed because it was delicious and still had my fill! The music helps with great vibes. This place is worth trying because I left this restaurant highly impressed by the flavors I got to witness ❤️

Very happy to discover The Local in the Brodie Randall's shopping center. Steak Frite was yummy and cooked to perfection. An added green of some sort to the plate would have been nice. We're hoping the limited menu will grow with the business.

Background music was fabulous. Service was excellent. If you've been around Austin for awhile, you may recognize some of the staff from other restaurants. The Local has hired some of the best.

The Local had friendly attentive staff
. I ordered the Monte Cristo which came out hot and quickly. I loved the casual vibe while also being aesthetically pleasing. Overall I would recommend the Local and plan to return with friends and family!

I’ve been waiting quite a few months to try out the new local spot around the corner. I chose the classic cheeseburger at $16. You could have won me over…….But I’m so sorry. I should’ve just gone to P Terry’s. That was the size of your cheeseburger. Quality pickles I will give you that.
The meat was pretty good but overall you have to remember the price point on a cheeseburger. As far as french fries go…,They were crispy but mediocre. I would’ve chosen ones “hand cut”with a little bit of love..
Atmosphere which is crisp and classic BUT also lacked local warmth to the Austin vibe. Fresh flowers are good… warm colors on the wall, but bland. Add an Austin local flair by sponsoring local artists as far as artwork for the wall. It would give it that distinctive touch that says we are a local Austin hang….Come join us. “Kerby Lane/Hyde Park” vibes.
Just a few thoughts and ideas from your neighbor.

This is the perfect type of neighborhood spot! Delicious food, simple and comfortable atmosphere, and reasonable price tag considering all of the above. We tried out brunch and can't wait to try more things soon.

My cocktail and my food were good. The price was reasonable. The service made me feel unwelcome. I was sat and provided with water, but had to ask to order a drink and again to order food. The place was almost empty but the next time I my waiter came by was when she brought my check - when I was only halfway through eating. She left it with a “no rush” but I hadn’t asked for the check and might have otherwise ordered another drink or dessert. Overall, it felt like they wanted me in and out, despite it being an hour until close and fairly empty.

I really loved my dinner at The Local! The staff were super friendly and accommodating. The mac bites were SO GOOD. I love that they have a small menu bc it makes deciding easier but also bc I know they have a better chance of being successful as a new restaurant! The atmosphere and vibes are on point too. Can’t wait to try their brunch!

Really cute place - nice atmosphere. Our waitress was lovely. Very friendly and eager to answer our questions and recommend drinks. Check on us frequently but not over bearing, which is great. I was a bit disappointed in the grain bowl. It was cold and was lacking in volume. My Fathers salad was good as was the beer but holy smokes the prices are not matching the quality. If they can get their food up to par, they’d be golden.
