"The odds are high you see someone having a full conversation with a brick wall on Dirty Sixth, which is why we’re consistently surprised by Parkside, located right in the heart of Downtown. There’s a raw-bar selection and things like pork chops and steaks on the regular menu, but there’s also a bar menu (that you can order from in the main dining room) with a burger. Make sure to get a real cocktail before you head somewhere nearby to drink like you did in college." - Adele Hazan
"The downtown New American restaurant reopened this year, still offering its wonderful private event spaces. There’s the dedicated second-floor space with an alfresco patio and its own kitchen for up to 200 guests; and the first-floor private dining room, both accompanied with food and drinks." - Erin Russell, Nadia Chaudhury
"Before closing for renovations back in 2022, Parkside used to be home to one of our favorite Downtown Happy Hours. They just reopened in the same space at San Jacinto and 6th Street. You can expect mostly the same menu, including the ever-popular half-priced oysters and bubbles on Wednesdays. " - nicolai mccrary
"Looking to add a raw bar (oysters and bubbly is a signature move at this restaurant), bacon cheeseburgers and garlic fries, or seasonal meals to your wedding? Parkside offers all of that. Catering can be requested online." - Darcie Duttweiler
"Dine on oysters and overlook downtown Austin from Parkside’s newly renovated rooftop patio deck. The banquet room and bar are available for rental, too." - Darcie Duttweiler
