My friend and I attended a graphic arts conference in Austin a couple of months ago, and we didn't know where to eat, so we looked online - Stubbs was rated as one of the top 10 restaurants, so we went. We weren't thrilled with the food - it was OK, nothing great; however, while we were eating, a RAT came running out of the kitchen into the restaurant. We were eating late, so there were very few people there. We informed the waitress, who promptly screamed, the kitchen staff started kicking the cabinet that the rat had hidden under - but no managers came out, nobody said anything. We were handed our bill, which we paid, and the waitress disappeared. When we walked through the bar to leave, the staff were all sitting around talking like it was happy hour. I won't be going there again.
I think this restaurant relies on tourists for its business. If I was a local I wouldn't come here on a regular basis if at all. The food is fair but ridiculously overpriced. Portions are meager. Ambiance is average. Beer is nothing to write home about. Clearly this place relies on a phony reputation.
There is no good BBQ in Austin and this place is no exception.

Lol,....good one from a current employee. Stubbs is for entertainment not food.
