                                                Great experience with Rachael! Lobster Benedict and Buffalo truffle chicken sandwich were perfect! Tons of lobster on the Benedict too! Loved the ambiance on the patio too ❤️

                                                Dear Christie, Thank you so much for the kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed your experience with Rachael—she’s a rock star and we’ll make sure she gets the lobster-sized high-five she deserves! 🦞 We’re also glad to know the Lobster Benedict hit the spot (it’s hard to go wrong when there's that much lobster, right?). And yes, the patio ambiance is like the cherry on top of a perfect meal! We look forward to welcoming you back for more deliciousness soon—whether it’s for more lobster or another Buffalo Truffle Chicken sandwich (we won’t judge 😉). Cheers, Carlos Urioste Food & Beverage Manager Verbena ATX

                                                Tried a bite at austin food and wine festival so decided to go in. Ambiance and vibe are great, but felt like the food did not really come out piping hot. Scallops were great (sauce was weird) carrots were nice, but the service was poorly timed, he took a bit to take our order, said he would course out our meal and then brought out 2 dishes, then the next two entrees when we were one bite in on the first two apps. So it was a little weird on timing.

                                                Dear Ashley, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the ambiance and vibe—creating a welcoming atmosphere is one of our top priorities. We’re sorry to hear that the food and service didn’t meet expectations. Timing is crucial, and it sounds like we missed the mark on coordinating your courses, which we’ll definitely work on improving.

We hope you’ll give us another chance to provide a smoother experience next time. Thanks again for your review, and we look forward to welcoming you back soon!
