Copper Dessert Lounge - Austin

I recently discovered Copper Restaurant Dessert Lounge in The Domain, and it’s hard to believe it's been around for nine years right next to California Pizza Kitchen without me noticing! It’s a fantastic spot for happy hour snacks and drinks, so I decided to try it out. I enjoyed a flight of peach whiskey and margarita, accompanied by some delicious cookies and Brussels sprouts. To top off my meal, I had the bacon-wrapped pig in a blanket, which was fantastic! The Brussels sprouts and cookies were incredible, and I especially loved the tender medallions. This was my first visit, but I definitely plan to return!

- Peachy Keen - Orange Margarita - Bacon-Wrapped Zartloin - Redfish Tacos - Goat Cheese Balls - Bread Pudding with Vanilla Ice Cream - Hot Mess Dessert - Two Cake Balls Everything was fantastic!

Excellent food and service! We visited during Saturday brunch without a reservation. We were seated outdoors, which was pleasant since it was covered. I really enjoyed the deviled eggs, and the shrimp hush puppies are a must-try for seafood lovers! I also have to mention that the cake balls were incredible, and there was a fantastic variety of drinks available!

The front door floor is stained/dirty, but someone immediately greeted us and knew about our reservation. Our server, Rebecca, was great. She was also the bartender and makes a brightuva drink. The appetizers were delicious. Entrees had not the same great taste of appetizers, but still decent. The restaurant itself was warm, but we sat near the kitchen.. also has a little smell. Overall, we will try again, the things we did not achieve this time.

We had a party of 11 around 11:00 on the Saturday morning of ACL weekend. There wasn’t a wait when we got there, but there was when we left, so get there on the earlier side. Service was great! Here’s what I tried: Truffled Breakfast Panini $14.95): Super good. Wasn’t a fan of the sweet potatoes though. They were definitely boiled. Wish they had been more of a hash. Crème Brûlée French Toast $12.95): Amaaaaazing. So delicious. My husband got the Southwest Benedict $14.95) and said that the panini I got was way better. Convenient if you’re staying in the Domain!
