About:South Congress Cafe has it all, a delectable menu, happy hour and a ritzy location in the upscale shopping area of Austin. The decor is airy and trendy with large windows overlooking the streets and slick booths that are comfortable. The cuisine leans towards South western and the restaurant serves brunch, lunch and dinner. Dishes to look out for are the scandalously succulent pork tenderloin, cajun seafood scampi and blue-corn crepe. The portions are humongous so you may want to skip dessert.

    Love this place.If you are having a hard time in figuring out the best place for a date this is the one. The setting is simple and comfortable but romantic. The staff is very friendly and their timing on services is just great. The portion of the food is just right amount to be satified and not stuff.The parking may be consider hard to get too but not so bad to ruin a night out on the town.

    Because I can't cook at all, I eat out a ton in austin and developed pretty picky tastes. This cafe blew me away. Everything about it was a 10 out of 10. Their atmosphere is unique and invigorating. Their menu was eclectic and sophisticated. Their prices are VERY good for the quality and the food is amazing. Even the dishes you are eating on are more interesting than most restaurants I've experienced. You have to go to this place.
