*Located 1/4 mile from the new Hill Country Galleria Mall* The Emerald, a little touch of Ireland itself, is a cozy Irish cottage nestled in the beautiful Texas hill country, fifteen miles from Austin. This exceptional twelve star (awarded four for food, four for service, and four for atmosphere) restaurant offers excellent food, an extensive wine list, imported beers, and of course the 'water of life', fine Irish Whiskey.

One of Austin's Best Kept Secrets
by megwoodut
This restuarant, while may be a bit far for some, is definetely worth the drive. The true Irish owners not only graciously welcome you at the door, but they truly appreciate your business - unlike other places that take you for granted. Portions were huge, and there's something to please everyone at the table. Just realize that everything on the menu is a pricey. Guys - they give you the menu with the prices btw (very traditional). This is another Austin landmark that has been fortunate to withstand the test of times and everyone should dine here at least once or on those special occassions. Well worth it.
- Pros: Portions were huge, authentic Irish food, service excellent
- Cons: It is pricey
$88.00 -Complete Four-Course Dinner per Couple!!
by lizbethcerna
We had always wanted to try out the Emerald-we had passed by it many times on our way out to LLano and when my husband was given a coupon that stated that both of us could dine at the Emerald for $88.00-we were thrilled. We both started out with the Irish Potato Soup which was homemade and creamy. Then we had salad and then we had a choice of Filet Mignon, Snapper with Shrimp or Celtic Chicken. I ordered the Chicken and my husband ordered the filet. Both came with a ton of vegetables which were fresh and delicious. We finished up with big pieces of Irish whiskey cake which is made by the owner, Paul. Very good, high quality food and the service was so attentive without being overbearing. I have to mention it again-we both ate a wonderful four course meal for only $88.00-for both of us. We had a coupon, but the owner said that since this is the 25 year anniversary of the restaurant, they are honoring that price for the rest of the year-so just mention it. You cannot use any other coupons-but that makes sense. Can't wait to go back and try the fish.
- Pros: Delicious-huge amounts of food!
- Cons: None
What a Find!!Finally!! Update Phone Number and Map!!
by Malloryhenderson
Wow-my husband and I had a great meal (lobster and steak...yum!)but I never knew how near this restaurant was to the Hill Country Galleria or Lakeway or that it is in Bee Caves!! The phone number on Citysearch is wrong-it should be 512-263-2147 and the map on Citysearch is way confusing-We went to a movie at the Galleria ( the Ugly Truth-very funny!)and afterwards went for dinner-it took us 3 minutes to get to the Emerald!! We tried the lemon cheesecake and it is perfect for summer-nice and citrusy. There was a harpist playing and how great was that -added to our romantic evening- a nice surprise.! What a great evening-thank-you! Mallory and Jeff
- Pros: Great Food and Atmosphere
- Cons: Please Update Phone Number and Map
