It's over the top. It's amazing. It's a blast and outrageous and a down south guilt pleasure. Get these big fat donuts! At least try them once. There's a reason why there is so much hype around this place. I love the variety of sweet and savory options. Portion sizes are huge but you're also paying for presentation. The country clucker was by far my favorite- it's served with creamed corn and candied jalapeños! If you can only pick one- then I'd go with sweet because that's what they are famous for and you can at least remember your last few moments in Austin with a sweet sugar coma.
I was looking for a bite and stumbled across gourdough’s and wanted to test a savoury donut! Omg it was deadly…. In the best way possible. The jalapeños were sweet and spicy and those huge pieces of bacon added the perfect amount of salt. The dough was chewy and delicious! Definitely happy we tried it out!
We went on a Sunday at lunch time for our first ever visit. I've always wanted to try this spot. The hostess was nice and the waiter was very attentive. It appeared they are a bit short staffed since there were lots of clean tables open but they were on a 30 minute wait. No worries, everyone is dealing with the same issues. The food was great. My kids loved the idea. My only gripe is that I ordered the pork belly dish which was like $15 and only got three tiny pieces of pork belly (see pic). What I got was delicious. Maybe my expectations were too high but I was expecting more pork.
Gourmet donuts. Great dessert spot, especially if you like donuts.
They’ve mastered the dough.
Queso was ok. Using weird ruffles with ridges Burger was just ok. Not delicious. Just good
