Lambert's - Austin
Went for dinner at Lambert's tonight. Arrived at about 6PM and was told that they were booked for the entire evening. The full menu is available at the bar so we opted for that. Overall, the meal was a little underwhelming but I like the atmosphere and interior so I will probably go back again. Ordered the Cornmeal Fried Rock Shrimp and the Warm Spinach and Frisee salad to start. Shrimp was okay. The honey/lime dip seemed basically like duck sauce. The Spinach salad is impressive, but ventures dangerously close to gutbomb territory. Layer of waffle fries mixed in with lardons topped with frisee and spinach and a double sunny side up quail egg on top. Definitely not a light starter. Main courses were the tuna and kobe short ribs. The short ribs were 75% fat, and the tuna was cooked well but a bit salty.
