I have a two complaints… the second, ties into the first.
The Complaints:
1) I stopped in at the bar for a drink before going to my room. I ordered a single 2oz pour of Oban 14, Neat… (Oban 14 is about $80.00/bottle; Figure about $10-20 (+/-) a 2oz pour in most places. I was shocked to see that they charged me $40.00 for the pour! I looked at their menu (picture attached) and they have listed Oban Little Bay at $40.00 (approximately same price/bottle. as the 14). I decided to cash out… and this brings me to my second complaint.
2) They automatically charge an 18% gratuity to every transaction. Admittedly this is rather nit-picky… Some probably prefer to have them assess gratuity and then they dont have to worry about it. I however, prefer to apply gratuity based on service; I tend to tip extremely well in this regard. However in this matter. I was, in my opinion, overcharged for bottom shelf glass of scotch. Then charged a $5.00 gratuity on top of it without my knowledge. I do not like establishments arbitrarily taking money out of my pocket. The next morning, I brought my concerns to the bartender, who, equally surprised, relayed it to a manager… who declined to facilitate any type of compensation. Which is fine, I honestly did not expect it…. I had hoped they would in adjust the price accordingly to their stock and save others from the shock of inflated pricing. Thats all on that matter.
Now, the Good news. Later that evening my wife an I returned for dinner , we had a meal and a cocktails and the bill only came to a surprising and much more reasonable $35.00 and change. The food was very good. The Bartenders were attentive and helpful. However I still cringe at the auto gratuity, but I tipped extra for the exemplary service.

Here’s a review you could use:
We had a wonderful dinner at Uptown Lounge Craft Kitchen and Cocktails tonight! We started with the feta dip served with sourdough bread—creamy and full of flavor, a perfect start to the meal. For our main courses, I enjoyed the creamy linguini with shrimp, which was deliciously rich and perfectly cooked, while my husband had the patty melt, which he loved. The bar menu was impressive, offering a great variety of options. Our servers, Tori and Ashley, were friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home. The ambiance was quiet and dimly lit, ideal for a relaxed evening. We’ll definitely be back!

Loved our first lunch at Uptown! The menu is nicely varied with good options for those looking for a light lunch as well as those wanting a delectable full meal. Will definitely be back! Share the mini tuna tacos with a couple friends or have them with a salad for a light lunch. Don’t pass up the lamb meatballs! The sauce is so good you’ll dip the toasted bread in it after the meatballs have been devoured. I also greatly enjoyed the turkey club sandwich and fries, taking half home for dinner. Pro tip: After 4 mins in the air fryer, the sandwich was every bit as good as it was earlier at the restaurant.

This hotel restaurant is 5 minutes from our house. It’s been there for approximately 2 1/2 years and I had no idea it existed. While running errands at five in the evening I decided I didn’t want to cook so I googled restaurants in my zip code. This restaurant popped up with 4.5 stars. The reviews were impressive so we decided to try it. I’m so happy that we did. The hotel and grounds are beautiful. The restaurant is lovely, well appointed, and has great ambience. The bar tender, Ray, was so attentive and helpful with the menu. Probably the best martini I’ve ever had. I don’t say that lightly as our business was based in travel so I’ve dined in some very prestigious hotel restaurants as well as enjoyed fine dining during many business dinners. The drinks were stellar and the food exceeded my expectations. We enjoyed the lamb meatballs in an agradolce sauce and the brisket nachos. Both were superb. I am extremely critical of food as I’m a very good cook(aspiring chef) This will be on our frequent flyer list from now on. The prices are very reasonable. In today’s economy we have experienced a sudden and universal decline in food quality with more than a few restaurants. This was such a pleasure, surprise, and all around delightful experience. Fresh ingredients with perfectly blended spices speak for themselves.

Explanation re the stars.
5: What I would expect at a Michelin star restaurant
4: Really good. Above average. Exceeds expectations.
3: Average. What I would expect
This is my long awaited neighborhood bar. I hesitated trying this space as it is situated in a hotel. The food and beverages served at most hotel restaurants generally fall in the mediocre category. Okay in product, generally not worth the price. I am delighted that I can walk here from my home in about 15 minutes.
Staff:
Tory is a love. She makes a great cocktail. She knows how to read a room. She knows when people want to engage in conversation and when not to.
Cali is super knowledgeable. Know’s her palate. Understands flavors. She’s the one you go to if you want to try something new and want a friend to introduce you to it.
Drinks:
Mexican Martini: One of the better ones in this city. Balanced flavors. Very easy to consume.
Brown butter Old Fashioned: the fattiness of the brown butter tempers the harshness of the Still. Again, flavors are incredibly well balance.
I will say that both beverages were a skosh sweet for me, personally. For baseline reference, I prefer my coffee black and whisky and bourbon on the rocks if not neat.
Italian Job: Hello friend. **Caveat: True to having excellent mixologists; at this point, they have engaged with me to know I prefer my beverages on the less sweet side.** I had an amazing cocktail that featured the bourbon while playing with flavors. The herbaceousness of rosemary complemented the lemon bitters and the combination of those two allowed the sweetness of the bourbon to shine.
Food:
Dynamite Spring: Perfectly fried. Crispy. Flavorful. A lovely warmth. For some people, this might read a little spicy. Recommend.
Cheese flatbread; added onions, red peppers, basil: This is completely accurate. Please do not get this and get mad that it doesn’t have enough “red sauce” as this is NOT pizza. This is a wonderful flatbread.
Queso: Quietly elegant. Flavorful. This is not overfussy. The poblano flavor actually come through.
Ambiance:
Sunday afternoon. Cool. Calm Chill. The perfect place to get work done and have great food and yummy bev.

Great food and great service. The cocktails were fantastic and the bar tender was awesome! The burger and the old fashioned were top notch! I will be back.

It’s set inside a hotel, so they can’t do much about the ambience. But don’t let that scare you away. Everything we had on the menu was fantastic. We were very surprised. From the chicken to the pizza to the pasta, it was all much more tasty than I felt it had a right to be.

There are some great healthy options and some of the less healthy options are decent. The brisket nachos were questionable at best because they didn’t have any cheese or bean (the jalapenos were awesome and the chips and brisket decent). I will definitely be going back for beer and wings during happy hour.

We chose the Cambria for an evening cocktail and light dinner and were blown away by the quality, service, and value. This is truly a hidden gem in North Austin close to the Domain and not far from Mopac.
We had a classic martini, a disco devil, and the house 12 oz pork chop.
