Editorial Review for Doc's Motorworks Bar & Grill – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
Once a popular neighborhood automotive shop, this prime piece of South Congress real estate has transformed into a casual American-meets-Mexican restaurant and sports bar. The sprawling front patio, filled to the brim with colorful tables and chairs, is the most popular seat selection for its front-row view of the steady SoCo traffic. Diners' choices range from traditional appetizers and burgers to enchilada platters and egg rolls--all washed down with a choice of 31 beers on tap.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

I dont know why so many people wrote such bad reviews for this bar! Every time I go I have a great time! The servers are friendly, cute, and fun! They don't bother you while your trying to sit, relax, and enjoy your night, unlike most sit down restaurants. The servers is fast especially considering how busy it is there! If your visiting Austin Texas I definitely reccommend that you stop by and have a couple drinks!

Pros: foood drinks fun service!!!

Cons: none

2 Star Rating: Below Average

I was extremely disappointed in Doc's. I paid $8.99 for a salad with chicken, bleu cheese and field greens. THAT'S IT. The service was awful. VERY slow. We were there for at least an hour and a half. Not worth the effort.
