Great down home cooking . Chicken Fried Steak was good with the different sides to choose from. Make sure to try the Banana Pudding for dessert . Very good service and friendly wait staff .
Everything on the menu is good here but as a vegetarian I love the Bella Muffuletta , I will say though the service has been pretty slow both times we've been here so you must have patience.
East Austin native son Hoover Alexander packs 'em in with tempting renditions of Southern comfort food , complemented with a dash of Tex-Mex, a whiff of BBQ smoke, and a pinch of Cajun/Creole spice.
Chicken fried steak was a little smoky, and super yummy! Black eye peas were tasty and homestyle mashed potatoes were great.
Chicken fried steak . Mashed potatoes . Green beans and collard greens . Killer comfort food , great side dishes and one of the best CFS in town .
Pretty good chicken fried steak here. I had the chocolate bread pudding and it was DELICIOUS. Speaking of delicious, my bf had the sweet potato praline cheesecake . Don't pass it up.
I'm one of the awesome grateful bartenders . Our loyal regulars are the greatest! Lots of laughs and great conversations, we are Hoover's family! Stop by for great food and wonderful drinks
Chicken fried steak was excellent, as were the sides. Service was excellent. Classic, old school restaurant with a great casual vibe .
Very average Southern Chicken Fried Steak , okra&tomatoes, fried okra and mustard greens.Average is not bad but it is also not a destination.Staff are very friendly , and iced tea is sweet :)
It's a short hop from the Stadium ; the bar 's flatscreen loves football ; their fresh-orange-mellowed frozens won People's Choice at San Antonio's Margarita Fest; they've got a mean chicken-fried steak . Read more
Everything is delicious, but I must say that it's the best fried chicken that you can buy. Just as good as making it at home.
If your interested in Southern-style comfort food , this is the place to be. Please try their their country-fried...everything. You won't be disappointed!
Southern home cooking , hearty but delicious. All the food tasted great, peach cobbler was delicious.
Try the AusTex Wings and ask for more than the 2 paper towels. The wings are extremely spicy , but delicious!
This Austin classic has above average soul food and a very indulgent breading on its fried chicken
Home cooking and BBQ ! Can't go wrong with this place. We sat at the bar and were in and out in 30 minutes.
Candied yams , collard greens , sweet potato biscuits stole the show. Our waitress (Tyler) was amazing!
Chicken Fried pork chop almost made me slap the girl Sitting Across From Me that's how good it was
The jalapeno creamed spinach is one of the best sides ever put on a plate. And if they happen to have the buttermilk pie when you're there, it's divine.
Amazing food, try the chicken fried chicken . Green beans are to die for, try to save room for dessert .
Everything is yummy. Kids will love the mac n cheese . The Meatloaf is the ultimate comfort food
I'm the mayor. Best brisket sandwich . I want to try their brisket across the street, out WA sold out last time.
You have to try the wings ! Out of this world... spicy and smokey! And yes, meatloaf and chicken fried steak are great as well as the service.

Meatloaf and pork chops are the bomb! Such yummy food.
Best Soul Food in Austin I've tasted so far Great Service reasonable prices
Chicken and waffles on weekend mornings until 2 pm.
Huge portions for good prices! Enough for two meals and a hearty snack ! Chicken fried steak and meatloaf are excellent.
The chicken fried steak is one of the alltime favorite dishes Ive ever eaten.
Try the chargrilled catfish & potato salad . Delishhhh
Order pie to go, just like granny's. Get it wrapped in plastic wrap to lock out the smokehouse scent.
Fried chicken for brunch
Fried chicken & waffles ! Nuff said!!!
Great home cooked style meals!
I use to <3 this place but portions have gotten smaller. The creamed spinach and mac n cheese were watery, weak coffee . This place is like a watered down version of its former self.
Great food. Had Hoover size chicken fried chicken .
The chicken etoufee is insane
BBQ chicken is worth checking out.
Chicken and sausage gumbo is awesome.
We were all very disappointed... jalapeno spinach had a imitation jalapeno flavor, the jerk ribs were flavorless and not spicy at all. This is the 2nd time we've been disappointed so we won't be back!
Wings , gumbo and an Arnold Palmer !! Mmmmm!!
The hoe cakes are really good and a must try for breakfast
darn good food but downright spectacular service from Ron
Big delicious portions.
Mmm mmm! Weekend breakfast honey-fried chicken n' biscuits ! Just remember to get there before 11:30!

Long line but once you order it gets done quickly and fresh. Well worth it - Leo Talbert
The fried chicken is delicious! I personally like the wimpy when it comes to the hot-o-meter. The Cole Slaw is a must to try. Big thumbs up! - raje heyer
Not just your typical coffee shop. Great place to both study and hang out with friends. They have a passion for both great coffee and beer, so you won't be disappointed! - Do512
Amazing acoustics. World class facility. Bring plenty of cash, though, because a glass of boring, industrial wine will set you back at least $9! - MetroSeeker.com
Must do stop for Austinites and highly recommend for tourists. Al about LBJ but usually some cool temporary exhibit. Don't be afraid to learn something! - Josh A
