    Terrific food and service. Only downside was that our party of six was crammed into a booth, and it was very uncomfortable for a few members of the group. Otherwise an amazing meal and service. Thank you!

    A nice fine dining experience. Cocktails were amazing! Food was good, but not mind-blowing.

    Service was great, chicken was fantastic. All the other food was highly overrated, and cocktails were not good at all.

    Service was excellent. Drinks were ordered and never delivered and the party nearby was bit chaotic and loud. All around excellent meal.

    I am a traveler from the Philippines, and I really wanted to try some fine dining. I read online that Comedor had a New York City feel to the food and experience, so I gave the restaurant a try. I cannot tell you if the restaurant is anything like NYC but I can say that it was a very different experience than any other Austin restaurant. If you have an adventurous palate, Comedor is the place to try. Feels like what a classy restaurant should.

    The bar blew me away the most. Some of the drinks are really impressive. Our waiter told us that they make some of the liquors. Definitely ask and give them a try.

    I recommend trying the fish dishes. Not a lot of seafood in Austin and finding a spot that prepares fresh fish was really refreshing.

    Really good. Nice place to eat. No complaints. Make sure you order a few things and pass the plates around!
