Dish Society

Happy Hour menu and cocktails are the best deal in town. The staff are very friendly. Cute interior. As far as the food, it's a bit bland and somewhat lack luster... We had the avocado toast. It was good but a bit strange with the sweetness of the marscapone spread. The hummus plate was OK. Not much flavor there. The truffle Mac-n-cheese grew on me after several bites... I would definitely come back for the cocktails.

Great counter service addition to South Austin. Everyone we interacted with was super nice. The food was great, The hot chicken sandwich was very moist and made to order. I only wish it was cut in half because it is enormous. And the Happy Hour options are great. We got some HH priced pies to go.

Friendly service and good quality delicious food made with fresh ingredients. We had the Brisket, Eggs and Smoked Gouda Grits, Chicken Salad Sandwich and Pretzels with Queso. The Brisket was tender and flavorful. Chicken Salad Sandwich was delicious on tasty multigrain bread. The pretzels with Queso were a yummy snack. Beautiful restaurant but a bit noisy.

I came here for brunch and the food was absolutely delicious. I got pancakes, fried chicken, seasoned potatoes, and a house biscuit. All of my food was delicious and my only complaint is that the chicken was a little dry, but otherwise it was seasoned excellently and had a nice crunch.

Checked out Dish Society on South 1st today and ended up staying way longer than planned. Came in for lunch, but the vibe was so good I got a few hours of work done too. It’s that sweet spot—quiet enough to focus, but still lively if you’re just hanging with friends. I had the Citrus Glazed Salmon with quinoa—fresh, flavorful, and filling without feeling heavy. I also tried the grit balls, the charcoal lemonade (refreshing and different) and a matcha latte, which was really good. Food’s healthy without being boring, prices are fair, and the coffee lineup makes it easy to turn lunch into a full afternoon spot. Definitely adding this to my go-to list.

Not sure how this place has such high reviews. Grits and pancakes were tasteless, chips were burnt, and overall most of our table did not enjoy their food. We ordered using the QR codes on the table and somehow 2/3 of our table ended up with to go orders instead of table service, leading to a disjoint and disappointing group brunch experience. On the positive, the juice was good, bacon was decent, and staff was kind.

We had a bit of a hiccup during our visit—due to a mix-up in the kitchen, our order was delayed and we waited about 50 minutes. But honestly, what could have been a frustrating situation turned into one of the most memorable dining experiences we’ve had, thanks to the exceptional service from Mark. From the moment he realized what happened, Mark went above and beyond. He was kind, professional, and sincerely apologetic. Not only did he take the time to explain the situation and keep us updated, but he also completely made things right by refunding our checks and even bringing out some extra complimentary items from the menu. His attentiveness and care turned a delay into a chance to feel truly valued as a guest. And the food was phenomenal. My friend and I got the Memorial Trail Scramble and it was so flavorful and fresh —well worth the wait. Despite the initial issue, we left with full hearts and full stomachs. Thanks to Mark’s exceptional service and the quality of the food, this restaurant has earned a spot on our favorites list. We’ll absolutely be back—and recommending it to friends!

Tasty AF! Came here with my wife. I got brisket and eggs. She got the salmon avocado toast. Both were incredibly delicious and made with quality nutritious ingredients. Feeling full but not bloated and uncomfortable! Staff were all incredibly friendly! Highly recommend!

Love this Place! There are a LOT of options on this menu! Lots to play with. Food is fresh and the pies are baked IN HOUSE. The mocktails are epic. (I don't drink alcohol so AWESOME!!!) I am a sucker for gluten free pancakes. They were winners!!! I wish they had real maple syrup but they team brought out honey for me and it made it all perfect. We sat outside and it was awesome! MARC was probably the best part of the experience. He came out and made sure we were 100% taken care of. He is the reason we felt this place so much. The whole team is solid, so let's make sure not to discount that. Go there. We'll definitely be back!!!

We came here for a Friday dinner in late June. The place was not full. So we were happy we didn't have to wait at all. By this time of the year, the temperature outside was warm. We initially sat inside but there was a screaming kid inside and the dining room inside amplified the sound. So we moved and grabbed a table outside. It was not bad in a shade. I ordered the poke salmon bowl. It was yummy and quite the right portion size for me, which probably means too small for most people. Ppl in my group liked their food. The spicy strawberry marg was meh. We might come by again to try out other dishes.

I, for one, support the expanding Dish Society empire. This is now their second location in Austin and sixth overall. I can't speak to the shops in Houston, but this new one has the edge of Mueller for their totally stress-free parking. Use the garage and get it validate for 2 hours, no muss, no fuss. Naturally, the thing that makes me want to drive the further distance is the food. They menu is careful to include options for everyone, spanning traditional brunch/egg dishes to Tex-Mex and a touch of the Mediterranean. The new Vegetarian (vegan by nature) Pita Wrap is a winner by any measure, with a soft flatbread swaddling tahini-rich hummus, crispy plant-based protein (I'm guessing a Beyond or Impossible patty?), and fresh veg and pickled onions that sparkle with mint and dill. You get all that an a pile of chips, literally. They're thick sliced kettle style and actually worth eating, not just some bulk plate filler. This is a great place to bring the family. Kids eat free every Tuesday, too!

Have heard wonderful things about Dish Society. They were absolutely not wrong. So many wonderful voices to choose from for brunch or lunch. We had the breakfast tacos, shrimp and grits and all American breakfast. Also a Bloody Mary and the prettiest mimosa ever! Get there early before the crowd for sure. There is validated parking for 2 hours in the garage around the corner. Ambiance is fun and has a chill vibe. Lots of groups so noise levels can be a bit much but when it is cooler I bet the out side dining is perfection.

This is an order at the counter and they will bring it to your table kind of place - very casual and relaxing. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The food seemed like farm to table in terms of options and freshness. I enjoyed the grilled shrimp with truffle Mac & cheese and a tortilla soup. They also have a lot of pie options - we tried the silken pie and it was delicious but I wish it was more on the dark chocolate side vs milk chocolate.

Food - 4 stars Service - 4 stars Ambiance -3.5 stars This is a cute little place. Good food, good menu offerings and friendly service. Seating is not very comfortable as it is mostly hard except for the very limited number of booths which are more communal type unless you have a larger party. We had the spicy chicken and biscuits with gravy. It was good and gravy was plentiful. We also had the brisket and eggs. This was delicious, but I ordered the eggs over easy and they were over hard. This is counter service only at this time. There is a QR code on the table that says you may order via the QR code, but it did not work. Coffee and sodas are also at a self-serve station. They serve a nice variety of coffee drinks and wine and beer. There is also a nice patio. Oh! And the best part is they validate for the attached parking garage! This is a huge bonus on S. 1st St. We will definitely return here whether it's for breakfast, brunch or lunch!

Dish society might be my new favorite brunch spot. There is an ample amount of seating and it is well lit. I came early on a Saturday before the morning rush. I had a spicy strawberry margarita, which was refreshing. My partner and I ordered beignets for a sweet start. They were freshly baked and came with a delicious sauce. I only wish I had more. I ordered the breakfast skillet for a savory finish. The gravy gave the dish a great texture with the potatoes, sausage and eggs. The portion was quite large so I got to enjoy it at home as well. I would definitely return to try a different dish.

Service - quick and friendly! People were very cool! They also gave us parking validation! Ambiance - very modern vibe yet also diner vibes that make you feel homey Food - YUM!!!! Beignet bites were SO GOOD OMG! I am still thinking about them. The brisket and eggs were also very tasty. They were also nice to accommodate to our egg preferences lol - both members of my party like them differently. And then the coffee was so good - honestly was delicious black which I don't think a lot of the time! But with cream, send me to heaven with the coffee.

I. LOVE. THIS. PLACE! Okay, so, this is a super cool, non-pretentious, fresh, friendly, affordable, and stylish restaurant. Your date will think you are super smart and savvy. Food is locally sourced and very creative. I had the Super Salad and added crispy fried chicken. (To balance the health quality.) But next time, I'm ordering the Watermelon salad ... it has goat cheese, tahini, arugula, strawberries... dude! This place is super cool. Check them out. Oh, and I had a few of the alcohol drinks ... Lavender Blush, Spicy Strawberry Marg, and what was really great was the Bartenders Breakfast Shot, made of Jameson, maple syrup, cream, and espresso. I even made a video of it and sent it to my friends. The bill was only $50. Que magnífico!

Was there yesterday, cute place and very tasty food! Service was lovely and my husband and I had a great time

Went in for the first time tonight. Food was amazing. I would think a great spot for lunch when you want a fresh salad or sandwich. I got the Super salad and added shrimp. Great new local business!

Great happy hour deals including bites, burgers, and delicious cocktails! Very friendly staff & they validate parking! Looking forward to trying other items on their menu!

Tried dish society for the first time. Ordered the southwest scramble, it was pretty good portion but wish there was a little bit more flavor. After adding hot sauce it tasted awesome. You go up to a counter to order and then they bring the food to you. It was pretty busy on a Saturday during lunch time so prepare for that. Would maybe go back to try some other items on the menu. Definitely a place with more healthier options.

Dish Society is one of my favorite restaurants, so I was excited to hear they're opening a second location in Austin. I checked it out during their soft opening, and everything was as amazing as expected. I decided to branch out and try some new things, so I ordered the Salmon Avocado Toast which turned out to be practically an entire salad on top of some avocado toast! I added an egg to the top, and the combination of salmon, cream cheese, avocado, egg, arugula, onion, and whole grain bread worked together deliciously. I'm not really an avocado toast person. I actually don't think I've had it before. It just sounds boring. But this one was anything but boring, and worth ordering! I also tried their watermelon salad, which I'll have to replicate at home, possibly to take as a side dish to our next church potluck. The watermelon, strawberries, greens, cheese (goat or feta?) and vinaigrette made a good, unexpected combination. Of course I also had to get one of their browned butter chocolate chip cookies. All the staff was extra helpful and friendly. I sat outside and watched the world go by on South First street. They have a nice covered patio area with tables and even some comfortable chairs, along with their normal inside dining room. It helps to know they validate parking at the attached parking garage, but since I wasn't aware of this, I parked about a block away on the street. I'm not sure if I'll end up going to this location or their Meuller location more, but it's nice to have this option!

Just tried out Dish. They are fantastic! They are very new and "working out the kinks". However, I experienced no kinks. Food was delicious and what we ordered, service was fantastic. Everyone was so kind and went above and beyond. We will be back and you should too!

Service was great. Kind of self service. Food was good but biscuits with gravy were slightly salty.

Highly recommend Dish Society! Everyone is so friendly. The menu is beautiful. Everything is delicious! Reasonable prices. Easy parking too! Win, win, win! Shout out to Marc & Joshua who have served me here - always with a smile and positive attitude.

Fantastic breakfast PANCAKES with quinoa, chia seeds, coconut flakes, & berries was so yummy Hubby had HOUSE OMELETTE three vital farms eggs, spinach, shallots, crimini mushrooms, white cheddar, & side of skillet potatoes. Self order and they deliver to the table Relaxing ambiance Some cool old cookbooks Reasonable price

Love love love this place! Found it online and decided to give it a try. Wow their food is amazing, and cheap and the service is super nice, the ladies did an amazing job! Kiddos! I will be back soon, ambiance is cool too!

I looove that this place has so many meal options! The staff is friendly and the service is quick, perfect for a lunch break from work.

Super yummy food and well priced. The actual restaurant is super nice with nice decors. They do validate parking which is great.

5 Stars! Dish Society was truly a wonderful restaurant with a great atmosphere and delicious food! We started with the pretzels and queso, and fried grit balls as appetizers--both were amazing! For our main courses, we had the chicken ancho bowl, steak tacos, and pesto chicken pasta. Each dish was packed with flavor! My daughter got the kids' chicken tenders, and I kept sneaking bites because they were so good! For dessert, we enjoyed a gooey chocolate chip cookie and a slice of coconut cream pie. The entire experience was fantastic! Highly recommend Dish Society to anyone looking for a kid-friendly spot with tasty food and easy parking. Can't wait to come back and try brunch!

Love the new Dish Society's location on South 1st in Austin! Great covered patio space! Cool vibe inside. Food is great! Something for everybody. The seasonal watermelon salad is on the menu now. Strawberries, arugula, tx goat cheese, cucumber, shaved red onion, mint, tajin, lime vinaigrette! So yummy!! Food is locally sourced and they have great gluten free and vegetarian options.

amazing top to bottom !!!! service food ambiance!!!!! fantastic food and im very picky !!! manager was amazing server at register amazing!!!

This is my go to brunch and lunch spot in Austin. I love that they have coffee and Matcha lattes as well as plenty of healthy whole food meals to choose from. I also love that you just order and sit down and have your food delivered. I really prefer that style of service. It makes everything so fast. The food always comes out really fast. The staff are always super friendly if anything ever goes wrong, they're always readily available to replace or fix something and there's always something to please everyone so I love that too.

Just came here for breakfast for the first time. Love the decor and atmosphere. The food was delicious...we had pancakes, the smoked salmon avocado toast, and a granola bowl. The fresh squeezed orange juice and lattes were great...the service was wonderful!...highly recommend!

Service and food were fantastic. We ate there this weekend and my kids, brother and I loved it. Food was fantastic, fountain drink options for kids were "healthier", coffee self serve bar was great, and food looked and tasted great. We sat outside and everything was clean, comfortable, and relaxing. The details/accents on the kids pancakes is what had me deciding I would be leaving a yelp review. Gina was our cashier/host and was insanely welcoming and knowledgeable. I'll be going back.

I ate at the new Dish Society with my wife and friends yesterday afternoon. I ordered the Dish Society burger with the optional Pecan Salad. The food arrived quickly and was piping hot. The Chef came out to our table to introduce themself a few minutes after our food arrived. I couldn't be happier. At 66 years old, I've had a lot of burgers in my day and this one ranks near the top. Service was top notch and the setting was relaxed and comfortable.

The place left a good impression. The food was delicious, everything looked fresh and attractive. The service was attentive, but at some points it seemed a little slow. The interior is neat, the atmosphere is cozy - it's nice to sit together and with children. Some little things can still be improved, but in general we were satisfied. If you are nearby, you should visit.

Delicious food, great atmosphere, and tons of parking. All of the waitstaff were very attentive. I highly recommend!

There is no table service except at the bar. The portions were generous. Bloody Mary had yummy garnish but was a bit too salty.

Food was great. We had the crispy shrimp tacos, smoked gouda grit balls, beignets and a fauxjito.
