Cute place!Little Wasp is such a cute spot in a really aesthetic area--perfect for brunch with a group.The brunch menu is a bit limited, but the options they do have are solid, and everything we tried was great. Service was super friendly, and the Bloody Mary? Fantastic. Definitely worth a visit!

Honestly don't understand how this restaurant has 4 stars. Our group made reservations at LRW since it is close to the convention center where we were attending an event.The fish and chips were dry and fried unevenly. At least the fries were decent. Definitely not worth the $31 price tag.Have you ever seen an anemic chicken fried chicken? That's what we were served. The fry on the chicken was so pale, and the mashed potatoes with gravy taste was bland.The Brussels sprouts tasted like they were microwaved, not freshly roasted. They weren't crispy at all and were soaking in liquid in the bowl.The spaghetti meatballs taste like cheap freezer meatballs that you get from a grocery store.I think this restaurant survives alone on hotel guests and convention center attendees.Overpriced and underwhelming. At least the service was fine.

We came here for a quick lunch before the airport. We came on a Saturday morning and the place was more than half empty. I would imagine it would be more busy for dinner. I had the double burger and it was a decent burger. The kids pasta was just ok, my kid loves pasta, but he just wasn't into it. Service was a bit slow for the place being so empty, but if you're looking for a quiet place for lunch, this is it.

This downtown location with valet parking if needed, is a lively fun spot with upscale sandwiches and salads. We had scallops and grits and the pork shank tacos. Both were very well prepared and delicious. Service was prompt and friendly. the restaurant has a cool bar, nice booths and would be appropriate for all age groups, business, friends, family. this was a great spot and I will return. Dishes are a bit expensive but that is dining out now, right?

I was staying in downtown Austin, and decided to walk over to the little red wasp for a bite to eat. It was during that very, very cold snap in January, so I didn't want to go too far from my hotel. The inside of the restaurant had a bit of a diner feel to it. Very simple but sufficient. I sat at the bar, selected a beef dish from the menu and it was delish. Their drink menu seemed to have a lot of variety on it, but their wine was incredibly limited. I requested two different wines that were on their menu, and they were out of stock. The bartender was very kind and attentive, and she said they were reworking their wine menu, which is why things I had requested were not available. I might give it a try again in the future.

So decided to do a follow up on this place. Had the shrimp roll, the green eggs and ham and the bread pudding. Service was first class and love the ambiance there. It was a low key Sunday for us. Green Eggs and Ham had an amazing flavor that was balanced well with the cheese and the avocado. The Shrimp Roll was VERY fresh and very good flavor. The Bread Pudding was very good and the pecans in the bourbon caramel sauce was very good.

This place is always a good choice Downtown. It's a pretty small menu but everything I've tried here is yummy. Today I got the Reuben on the brunch menu, and the little got the kids pasta with red sauce (which she swears is the best pasta sauce she's ever had). Service is consistent and attentive, and the vibe is chill and laid back.

Can't say much about the vibe of this place since we ordered for takeout. We found this place through google maps and it was literally right by our hotel, so my husband went and picked it up. We ordered a few things:- Deviled Eggs: good, they did not skimp out on the filling. - Donut Holes: a nice little sweet treat after our meal. -Reuben: my husband said it was good. -Salmon & Lox Bagel: this was good too, but I've had better elsewhere. Overall, the food was good, we'll keep this restaurant in mind next time we're in town.

Upon arrival, there was a faint odor resembling old cleaning water. The vent near the host stand had condensation on it, and a water droplet fell on my head. This issue definitely needs to be addressed.I ordered the crispy chicken sandwich for my meal which was tasty but definitely not worth the $19 price tag. The chicken was well-seasoned, and the slaw, sauce, and jalapeños made for a great combination. The meal comes with house-made chips, which were just okay. We initially got an old batch that wasn't crunchy, but our waitress noticed this on her own and promptly brought us a fresh batch straight from the fryer.While I enjoyed my meal it's nothing that I plan to return to order again.

Had a quick lunch on the patio and it was so nice. I had the avocado toast scrambled... must try the salsa verde it's warm and one of the best I've had. Service was so so but overall a great spot to try.
