This was quite possibly the best meal I had in my four nights in Austin. The service was spot on and my meal was outstanding. The bone marrow appetizer was the best I've ever had. And my steak entree, Texas beef of course, was equally excellent. All paired with a delicious Aglianico wine and a great table of business colleagues made for a great evening.

Went for a nice Saturday brunch... can’t recommend this place enough but almost don’t want to because it’s a gem and it wasn’t packed on SoCo. The chicken & biscuits with jalapeño gravy may be one of the best things I’ve ever put in my mouth. Got to taste dishes from my table and nothing was sub par... FANTASTIC FOOD! I was blown away. Service was even better - an Aussie gentlemen. He was wonderful. Will definitely be back every chance I get.
My favorite dishes were the oysters and the Banoffee tres leches dessert. The entrees we ordered were the Prime Rib and the Market Fish. The Prime Rib was cooked perfectly, paired nicely with the horseradish cream sauce and had a nice crust. The issue I had with it was that they put a sauce on top of the prime rib which I felt was overkill. A simple aus jus would have worked. The potatoes and brussels sprouts that came with it were great. The Market Fish was Black Drum fish which was a nice tasting white fish and came with green beans, peppers and cashews. It was decent tasting, but it's not amazing and I probably wouldn't order again. The fries were nothing out of the ordinary, but the fry sauce was great and was Dijon mustard based. Overall, it was a decent dining experience, but I wouldn't order the same meal again.
Good food and great service! I wish the draft beer selection list was a bit more extensive, but they do have some good choices. Smoked nuts as an appetizer and then I ordered a sloppy veggie 🍔 with fries. Wife got a side salad 🥗.
The COVID menu is a limited but I love the nice cool vibe of the outside patio.
First time visit Central Stanard. Visited on a Saturday for brunch and did not need a reservation luckily. There is a parking garage close by making it easy to park. The location is right on South Congress and from there you can walk to the different shops.
The interior was very nice and they were able to sit us by the window so we could look out. The menu looked delicious and I decided to order the Maple Bourbon Donut and the Standard Dip with a mimosa. The pricing is a bit high and I personally would not have put a mimosa at $8 when it is in a small champagne glass. Portion size was fairly big and I would have had leftovers, but I was hungry. For the maple donut, you can order a small side of bourbon to go with the donut, which we did. Watch out because the bourbon is strong at least for us it was.
The only thing I would say about the meal was that I did not care for the au jus. It was just there for me.
Excellent experience! Very convenient location on S Congress, which is great for walking up and down. The menu is a bit all over the place but my party of 5 really enjoyed the food. They even have octopus on the menu! It’s not your typical Texas BBQ but is welcome to a wide variety of foodies. They do not have your typical Mac-n-cheese and chicken fingers so I wouldn’t recommend for picky kiddos. Overall, 9/10 would recommend.
Wow!!!!! The prime rib hash for brunch was the best thing I’ve had in a while. Nothing special but the way it was prepared and seasoned was so well done I couldn’t stop raving throughout the meal. So happy we went here!
"DAMN THAT'S A GOOD PIECE OF MEAT!" Simply one of the things that you might spontaneously say upon your first taste of their pork chop. The entire dining experience is refined without being pretentious.
We had a great brunch on the patio at Central Standard! Incredible food, good oysters, big menu with something for everyone. We had excellent service and an all around great time.
Deviled eggs are the best! So good!
Came here during restaurant week and got to try a lot of things on the prix fixe menu. Everything was tasty and the service was friendly. My only complaints we're that the door to the patio slammed loudly every time it was opened, and there was a bit of messy repair work being done on the ceiling over the bar that sort of interrupted the ambience.
Good food as you’d expect. For brunch I ordered the deviled eggs appetizer with chow chow topping, which was different and delicious. My main was their take on an English breakfast with a couple of eggs some blistered cherry tomatoes, some sautéed mushrooms, and two small pieces of toasted bread. For $16 it was a little lackluster. The drink are also outrageously $$$$. All in all good. Can’t beat the SOCO area ambiance either.
The prime rib hash was amazing. It’s a little loud, but full of energy and charm. The decor was very retro modern and made for great atmosphere. Overall a terrific experience.
