In Short – Guests sink into roomy leather armchairs at tables and enjoy the view of the pool and the wide expanse of Lake Travis. Everyone is welcome, but the place seems to draw Lakeway residents and clubby types. The menu is impressive. A delicious deep-fried avocado is stuffed with chicken salad and doused in mildly spicy chipotle pepper sauce. Coconut creme brulee bread pudding is just as decadent as it sounds.

Great place to get cherry pie that tastes more like a burger
by utcutie11
Well, we went to the Travis restaurant for a nice meal while staying at the Lakeway Resort. It was disgusting. I ordered a veggie burger that was basically mush on bread. My mom ordered a 22$ fish dinner that tasted like Gorton's frozen fish. Ew. Then the next night we were craving some sweets, and ordered room service. The only thing good was the chocolate ice cream & gummy bears my sister ordered...i mean how can you mess that up? However, I ordered (and this is straight from the menu) a Potted Cherry Pie that was supposed to have a flaky crust but smelled like dog food/burger/bbq. And it was cold. Not even room temp. Soooo if you are craving a burger/and or dog food, order the potted cherry pie and you won't be let down.
- Pros: Nice atmosphere
- Cons: Sh*tty food
