- EEricVIPSan Francisco Bay Area •9 reviews4.0Dined 4 days agoMy wife & I enjoyed Saturday brunch here. We absolutely want to come back during evening service. Homey Moon has a great looking patio, and the first stop once inside a super cool bar that looks like a speakeasy and a western saloon had a love child. I would have loved to have a few drinks and test the bartenders, but, well, brunch is a little early… The menu, like the restaurant itself, is eclectic; but unfamiliar; a really nice change from the same ‘ol same ‘ol. The service was on point, with everything arriving on time and at temperature. The room is a bit noisy, so a meal here is more fun and vibrant vs. quiet & romantic.More infoHoney Moon Spirit LoungePrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Central Austin•4.8

Also desserts sooo good. Service impeccable. Only complaint is serving sizes were normal which meant no left overs and was pricey.More infoThe WellPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• Downtown•4.7
