Where is the Best Late-Night Dining in Austin, Texas?
I personally think this is the best restaurant for dim sum in Austin. Love their char shiu pau (steamed buns with bbq pork), shu mai (pork and shrimp dumplings), turnip cake and tau foo fah (desert:bean curd jelly). The rest of the items are pretty decent as well. As the other reviewer mentioned, the waiters would get the dish for you personally if it was already gone from the cart.This restaurant also serves Chinese and Malaysian cuisine. I haven’t really tried their Chinese dishes before so I can’t comment. As for their Malaysian dishes, it is alright. Some of the ingredients have been substituted since you can’t get certain ingredients here, so it is not quite as authentic.Pros + dim sum, serviceCons – wait on Sat/Sun
Before anyone complains about the food/service at Taco Cabana, come to Denver. There is NO Tex-Mex to be found and the service in most restaurants and fast foods is worse than any experience I ever had at Taco Cabana. We especially enjoy the tortillas, queso and fajitas. Not to even mention the bean and cheese breakfast tacos. On a recent visit to San Antonio, we ate at the restaurant on Pat Booker Rd. 5 out of the 7 days we were in town. Thanks Taco Cabana, we got our fix : )Pros + Clean, Inexpensive, Good Value
My fiance from the Eastcoast and I absolutely LOVE this place!!!!!!! I cannot put into words how romantic and FUN this place is. Whenever he is in town, our weekend ritual is: 1)Drive to Saba, 2) check the car in at the Valet, find our favorite secret spot (we have 2 and I’m not telling). 3) I order the Fresh Mint Mojito and he orders water with the crusted shrimp appetizer, 4) I order the grilled Talapia with Jasmin rice instead of the pinneapple rice & he orders the steak dinner. 5) We both praise how wonderful Saba is and marvel at the excellent customer service from all waitresses and staff. One time, the owner offered to make arrangements for my guy to access cash from his card, in order to pay valet. He went above and beyond to make it happen and we’ve been patrons ever since!Their Mojitos are the BEST here! And the fun part kicks in as we wait for our car outside and listen and dance to whatever live band is playing in the neigboring courtyard. WE BOTH LOVE YOU SO MUC
