Longleaf Craft Kitchen & Bar

Overall, the food was amazing; overpriced in our opinion but delicious!! The staff were nice, but could have been a little more attentive, especially since it wasn't busy. For example, we had to baby our water to ensure we had enough before it was refilled. NOT a huge deal, but the small details always make the experience. We would recommend coming and trying a few different things. We ordered a few appetizers and shared a main course (ribeye - not pictured) so that we could try different items on the menu and not break the bank. I don't think you can order "wrong", it was all delicious. BUT! Expect to spend a little more than you maybe used too.

This is for the 2024 NYE dinner only, as I've never eaten here before and probably won't again. It was extremely disappointing. There were 2 of us, and we each had one cocktail. Our bill was $199. Added to the $100 deposit to hold our reservation and it was a $300 meal, not including tip. For that kind of money, this dinner should have been off the charts amazing. We left hungry and went to HEB afterwards. Our server, Kate, was lovely. The restaurant was cozy. Drinks were decent. One glass of free champagne was a nice touch.It was a 3 course, plated dinner. We ordered the scallops, lobster, and the spiced pear and chocolate mousse. The scallops appetizer was actually ONE scallop. It was overcooked but had a decent flavor. The sauce was amazing. But seriously...ONE scallop? For a three hundred dollar meal? Next was a very tasty palette cleanser. The menu said "additional small bites." Was that the additional small bite? Because that's the only additional thing that wasn't listed on the menu.Next, the lobster. It was SO dry & over-cooked, we struggled to get it out of the shell. Very chewy. It was topped with a "crab relish". I don't know how it was supposed to taste, but it was dry and flaky, with zero flavor. The saffron risotto was very good.Dessert. The chocolate mousse was nothing special but the spiced pear was amazing. Not the worst meal I've ever had, but it wasn't worth $300, at all.

This restaurant was ok. While walking in the square, we decided to stop in for lunch. We walked up to the hostess stand and the hostess asked us if we had a reservation, which we did not. She then told us there was a bar table so we took that. When we got inside, the place was pretty empty, so I didn't understand the need for a reservation. The food was good. I had the Strawberry salad, which was pretty tasty and my hubby had the sirloin sandwich. Service was a little slow; considering it wasn't very busy inside, not sure what keep the waitstaff occupied. There are a lot of places to eat around the square - not sure if I would choose this place again.

My wife and I ate here on a late night adventure. It was a fun date and what made it even better was the kind staff and attentive service. Our waitress was quick and informative. Although we were handed the lunch menu, she was very apologetic when we asked if we had the correct menu. For appetizers we ordered the warm bread and butter which was delicious and the butter had a nice salty tang. We then ordered the Shrimp en Croute, which was ok... but, I don't think I would get it again just because it didn't have the rich flavor I was looking for. To drink I had the Agave in bloom which had a nice lavender note making it very relaxing to sip. My wife ordered the Zen & Tonic which had a cucumber & orange peal taste. It was refreshing to say the least.For entrees I ordered the Wagyu beef burger (medium rare) which rocked my socks. I went to bed thinking about that thick piece of meat. My wife ordered airline chicken breast, the chicken breast was juicy, tender, and had great flavor. the chicken was sitting on a bed of creamy spinach risotto that was so comforting. It was topped with crunchy fried onions which really brought the dish together. Overall, a great experience. My only complaint is the price for the drinks and appetizers... I will say it was a fair price for the entrees, they were simply delish.Much love, J. wall

Came to Wimberley for a day trip to sightsee and walk around today and decided to try Longleaf. The prices seemed pretty reasonable on the yelp pictures but they have raised them slightly since said pics were taken. The interior is definitely taken care of and kept very clean. It has a very relaxed ambience albeit a little quiet. This is probably because we came in before the evening crowd. The restaurant was basically empty besides a few tables. Our server was very nice and made sure we didn't have any questions. We didn't really see her the entire time. She seemed to maybe be occupied with other things.she neglected to ask about refills or anything else. We only ordered appetizers and it seemed to take a really long time considering there wasn't really any customers and a huge staff of employees. Considering how many people were on the floor , there wasn't any bussing going on. Employees would just walk by the table and stare at the dishes we stacked. The food arrived and was beautifully presented and the flavors were spot on. I especially liked the deviled eggs with a rich yolk/bacon filling with fried oyster on top. We also ordered the shrimp en croute. I could not really tell from the menu description that it was 4 small tartlets. I guess i imagined it would be one bigger en croute tart or vol-au-vent type preparation. This is also bringing into account the $16 price tag which I thought was steep for the portion. Maybe it could be 6 tiny tarts instead of 4? ( i know its shrimp but its a batch filling mixed with alot of cream cheese i would imagine) Besides the price , theflavor was incredible with an intense ( in a good way) shrimp and wine filling. I still felt that i got good value here as the fried oysters i ordered were massive along with the generously stuffed eggs. All the criticisms above are pretty minor and I enjoyed my experience here and would encourage anyone visiting Wimberley to give it a try.

I rarely (if ever) leave bad reviews, well today's the day and here's why. To kick things off, I don't find satisfaction in bashing people or businesses for the sake of bashing, this review is to shed light on the reality of parenting for those who either do not know or seem to have forgot.....hello there. My family & I drove in all the way from Georgetown for a relaxing lunch at Longleaf (where we have been before)....and that was quickly cut short. After ordering food my 2 year old daughter for no reason decided to throw a tantrum (as many 2 years do) however I choose, as I always do, regardless where these tantrums take place in public or not - to ignore my daughters tantrums since I choose not to reinforce my daughters behavior by calling attention to it. That said her tantrums typically pass within minutes of me dismissing them, otherwise I take it upon myself to remove myself from whatever public situation we are in to avoid causing any disturbance to the surrounding guests. (Yes, believe it or not parents of the crying children don't find it fun, appealing or enjoyable anymore then the person sitting next to them does.)However, today at Longleaf, the manager of this establishment: Pam Tise (pictured here) quickly approached our table (if I could guesstimate ...probably within less than 3 minutes of my daughters tantrum kicking in) to tell me my daughter is disturbing the guests & we need to take her outside or leave (mind you it is 99 degrees today, taking into consideration humidity .....) I informed Pam Tise of two things: it's nearly 100 degrees outside & my daughter is just a baby, she isn't accustomed to this heat (I'm a Texan native for nearly 40 years & I'm not even accustomed to this heat, you think a child is??) and mentioned (although I don't need to explain my parenting approach) dismissing my daughters behavior is what results in the behavior stopping. And in the event the behavior doesn't stop: I take it upon myself to leave. Simple as that. Furthermore, I worked in the service industry myself for numerous years - I get it, it's annoying, it's uncomfortable and unpleasant for guests - let me reiterate: it's the same for the parents as well. Furthermore Pam Tise also came clapping back at me, accusing me of saying the "F" word at her, which was outlandish as I would not publicly disrespect someone in front of my daughter (however let it be known I have no issues with the "F" word, simply not my choice of language when being confronted in front of my child.) That said, I was disgusted by Pam Tise's attitude, therefore my family and I abruptly left.***NOTE TO LONGLEAF OWNERS**** Please educate your managers on parenthood, namely Pam Tise - it seems like it's been a while since they have raised a child. Give the parents a hot minute to restore order before attempting to push out loyal customers so quickly. Second, I suggest retraining your management on Longleaf's mission, passion, and purpose that states, "serving approachable food without the pretense or price of fine dining...... with exceptional hospitality in an atmosphere of warmth, where everyone is welcome." --- today's experience demonstrated that mission, passion and purpose is FAILING as a result of YOUR management, namely Pam Tise and their accusatory, unprofessional and disrespectful behavior.Rest assured - ya'll have our commitment we will NEVER be returning to your establishment again. We am not the first, and I am certain we won't be the last as long as Pam Tise or any of your management & service team treats your customers this way.

Have you ever had an apple tart so good that you felt like eating it was illegal? If yes, then you've had the tart from here. Beyond delicious!Do you need more than an apple tart to go here? Fair!Clean, cozy, and friendly atmosphere. Our server's name was Eric and he was so nice! Struck up some casual conversation, answered any questions we had, and stayed on top of our needs. He was seriously never too far away. The food! Besides the tart I absolutely enjoyed the vegetable lasagna. I did not see much in terms of vegan options, but it felt like the kind of place that would make accommodations if you asked. I was told the quail dish was well cooked and tasty. At one point the chef came out of the kitchen and checked on everyone, he was so kind as well. I am totally coming back here if I ever end up in Wimberly again.

This was my second time dining here and it's just as good as I remembered. We had lasagna, eggplant parmigiana (not your typical kind) salad and fried oysters. Everything was delicious. The chef came out and asked how our meal was and the staff is friendly. Love the outdoor seating.

Longleaf Craft Kitchen is a gem of a spot in Wimberley...they never fail to impress me with the incredible cuisine they create here. This is the third time my daughter Karen and I have dined here, and it's always a culinary adventure. We started with the Hangtown Deviled Eggs...these are deviled topped with a fried oyster, some bacon, and a drizzle of garlic aioli. You cannot say no to these, they are absolutely delicious! The sautéed pork chop with the calvados-infused apple sauce is like having dinner and dessert at the same time. While the Lyonnaise potatoes are very good, the crispy potatoes are in a league of their own. The ribeye...perfectly cooked and the butter really put the flavors over the top. I've never had fondant potatoes before...there were a great accompaniment to the steak and delicious. This place creates great food and our server Toni was wonderful and took excellent care of us. In the summer outdoor dining is wonderful and the history of the building is very interesting.

Had an absolutely wonderful time at Longleaf a few days ago with my wife. It was a chance visit as we were driving through town back towards Austin from New Braunfels. The cocktails were wonderful made and the food excellent. We had the Hangtown Deviled Eggs, the maple bourbon Brussels sprouts (soooo delicious!) and the lasagna and Eggplant Bocconcini. Top notch all the way.And wonderful service too, especially the general manager Keisha!
