Great new restaurant in SW Austin - Cypress Grill

[AkakHorn]

They're located on William Cannon, just west of the Randalls on MoPac/William Cannon in the Gold's Gym (or whatever their name is this week) shopping center.

They left a flyer in my door the other day and tried them out last night, and it was great food. Kinda a combination of cajun food and salads/sandwiches, plus other seafood. Casual place, with a full bar, and $2 Abita and Shiner all the time.

I had the crawfish linguini (like fettucini alfredo) and wife had a grilled chicken sandwich, and both were fantastic. Service was great, prices were good ($20 for our meal including a beer), and plenty of parking. Kid's menu as well (I didn't see it).

For those of you out here in the good restaurant-starved Southwest Austin area (I'm in Circle C area), check it out.

Great, thanks for the recommendation. Saw their sign up and wondered what they were all about.

A place we're glad we gave a second chance: Fu Lai at William Cannon and 71. We ate there when we first moved down here last year, and it was lousy. They're under new management now, and both the decor and food have improved greatly.

I think it's owned by the same folks as Wok N' Roll...the menu is mainly several meat options with your choice of sauce, and several noodle dishes. The potstickers and coconut shrimp appetizers we had were really tasty.
