I’ve been coming to Hyde Park bar and Grill for 30 years and it’s always been excellent. They are famous for their french fries, and their fries are extraordinarily good but so is everything else here. I really like most of their sides and their chicken fried chicken is very good.

Went for lunch on a Friday and ordered a Chicken Fried Steak. Hyde Park bar and grill served me one as big as my head and it was great! Never had a CFS before and it lived up to the hype! Want to give a shout-out to our great waitress, Brooke! She put the gravy on the side so I could dip my bites and keep the CFS from going soggy. Very Austin vibe with weird art on the walls for sale.

Had a great meal here at Hyde Park Grill. Orderded the famous buttermilk fries to start and they were crispy and satisfying. Chicken Fried Steak for dinner, it was tasty but I wouldn’t say the best I’ve ever had. I would like to come back and try another dish. I would dock half a star for the heat inside, the area we were sat didn’t have a fan over it and got pretty hot as the meal went on. Was definitely ready for the check to arrive. I would recommend this spot, has a classic restaurant vibe to it.

Unique spot. Food was good, however if you're concerned, definitely ask how your dish is prepared. I asked what the steamed broccoli is seasoned with, Server said nothing. 😶 The painkiller drink is tasteless so I'd recommend skipping it. I'd totally eat here again! I enjoyed the bacon glazed meatloaf and avocado fries. The collards w/ bacon was a hit...after I added a touch of honey.

Everything was really good. Went in for brunch and was sat immediately. Server was so on top of things we had drinks shortly after arriving and food not long after, I cannot emphasize enough how good the service was. Order the fries and two different egg benedicts. They were hot and flavorful and unique in their own ways. We ordered a small fry and it was quite large and piping hot, they were very crisp and well seasoned. We also ordered mac and cheese but were a tad disappointed it came with bread crumbs on top, next time we will get it without them! Will be coming back soon!

The crowd here is on the older side. People come with their families or even on dates. The drinks are strong. The happy hour is cheap but only limited items. There is plenty of parking in the front, back, and a bigger lot further back. We ordered 4 of their happy hour drinks, they were tasty and came quickly. For the food, we opted for happy hour finger food. We got their famous fries, fried beans, and fried avocado. The fries were delicious, they are coated in some starch and fried. The avocado tasty so good, like creamy egg yolk. The fried string beans are just as you’d expect. The dipping sauces were yummy!! The portions here are very big for their happy hour price. The staff was nice and quick. I would def come back again to try their chicken fried steak entree.

This iconic comfort food haven has been an Austin institution for decades, and it never disappoints. Since we came on the Monday before Thanksgiving, the huge fork standing in front was holding a turkey! I love the laid-back ambiance of this place, warm and filled with natural light. There’s a full bar, and while there are only a few beers on tap, I was able to get my favorite Austin-brewed hazy IPA. The menu has so many good choices you can’t go wrong. Number one recommendation? The FRIES. I’ve had them all over the world and Hyde Parks are the best! I got an order to eat there as well as a large order to bring home and reheat in the air fryer! I get fries every time, no matter what else I order. Other things I rotate through: the burgers, chicken fried chicken, bacon glazed meatloaf, the Asian chicken salad, and the Sonora salad. The sides are excellent, with my favorites being the buttermilk mashers, the grilled broccoli, and the cheddar poblano grits. The other thing I get every time has an odd name but is simply delicious: Wom Kim’s Peach Pudding. Just try it. The weekend brunch is also amazing. Join lots of Austinites in this weekly celebration.
