I was extremely impressed with guest house, for being new the service and atmosphere was already top tier. Music seemed on point for the type of guests that were there, it encouraged a fun environment over a quite formal one which I appreciate. The drinks I had were unique and a refreshing change from classic cocktail and the typical cocktails you see in Austin. I look forward to see what new drinks y’all come out with I hope you keep the trend of keeping the cocktails uniqueThe food was insanely delicious! The salad and bread were both seriously some of the best I have had in my life, I would also recommend the steak over the chicken. The sauce on that steak is really amazingWhat I liked most about guest house is that it felt like elevated American food with a twist. However the style of courses and the way they came out felt like a Eastern Europe experience or a family meal. You don’t get you own bite per say, you share a plate which can be great if people you are with are used to that but some Americans def need guidance. I do wish there were more serving utensils available on a couple of the courses because I felt like some of my party was uncomfortable serving themselves or using their utensils while the rest were a bit more used to shareable plates and kinda just went for it.All around 10/10 very impressed already and can’t wait to return soon!

I dined on March 2nd and had an INCREDIBLE experience! Our waitress, Amanda, was attentive, genuine and caring throughout our entire dinner. We had a big group and tried most dishes in the menu. The theatrical drinks, music and overall ambiance also enhanced the experience. I will be back!

A great date spot.This restaurant is a wonderful girls night, happy hour, or date spot.Very comfortable “American” food options with a fun high end “inspired” option in each section. This is a wonderful spot for someone looking for great ambiance and food they know and understand.Which makes for a beautiful, high end, and comfortable night out for most.The endive and apple salad was delicious. The miso mushrooms were magical ( our vegetarian dining companion said they were some of his favorite mushrooms in town.)The encrusted steak was indulgent and delicious.This is a fun spot. There is a love DJ setting the vibe and whimsical drinks (not sure why they have an Alice in Wonderland theme - nothing else does but they are fun.)This is a fun, light, American fancy food night out.Some restaurants are serious and deserve to be taken that way.Guesthouse is your comfortable “fun” spot to dress up and enjoy a night downtown in the ACL area.

I dinned here on February 26th and I fell in love with this restaurant. The atmosphere is modern but with nice touches of elegance and greenery. The table settings were adorable! The service was amazing, Amanda took care of my table and was really nice and offered suggestions on menu items, showing a high level of professionalism. The drinks were pretty good over all, and the food was amazing! I got to try a bunch of dishes and I highly recommend the beef tartar, spicy rigatoni, kale cesar salad, and the island salmon. Each dish was unique and equally as tasty. Highly recommend this spot for a nice upscale date night!

Started off with the sexiest bread service I’ve seen. Beautifully crunch crisp brioche on the outside, flaky and buttery on the inside. Execution of dishes was on point and plates were colorful and balanced. The sticky toffee pudding with its nutty dark cake was insanely good. Loved the steak tartare on toast points topped with micro chives and aioli. All in all, an excellent meal from creative cocktails to knowledgeable service to well-executed dishes. Can’t wait to come back again soon!
