RE: Ruined our wedding weekend 3/10/2012

by Noturmonkey at Citysearch Provided by Citysearch

@IncrediB74: Wow Hilton ruined your wedding weekend by charging you for optional services that you willingly accepted? I'm certain there is a Motel6 in the area. They provide free internet and don't charge for valet parking (because there is no valet). You even get to carry your own bags to your room! I don't think they charge for incidentals either, because economy hotels generally don't offer any services you would need an incidental folder for. I work for Marriott but no matter the brand, you always have the guests that ask for a Cadillac service on a Kia budget. Good luck, sir. more

A nice, pretty standard business hotel. It is what you would expect from a large Hilton - clean, comfortable rooms, central location,... more

Ruined our wedding weekend 11/29/2010

by IncrediB74 at Citysearch Provided by Citysearch

My wife and I stayed here the weekend after our wedding, and while the lobby and amenities are quite good at this location, the service left MUCH to be desired. When we arrived, me in my tux and her in her wedding gown, the valet wrote on our ticket that he would comp the $25 charge. However, when we checked out, the $25 charge was there and I'm STILL trying to get HIlton to refund my money. Not to mention they have yet to refund the $50 incidentals deposit. Also, it's 2010 guys, why the heck do you not have free internet? Paying $15 per day for internet in my room is absurd, and borderline price gouging! Before that weekend, I'd been a regular customer of Hilton and never had to pay for internet. Seems like they're just trying to nickel and dime us now. And to a young couple that just finished paying for their own wedding, every cent counts. So thank you, Hilton. My wife and I will be looking elsewhere for hotels from now on. more

Bad Service and Worse Food 3/11/2010

by CRule45 at Citysearch Provided by Citysearch

The wait staff was totally incompetent and several errors were made on our order. Our waiter could not make a recommendation to save his life. The food itself was way over priced and mediocre at best. We ordered several rolls and one of the "chef specials". My wife made the comment that it was the worst sushi she had ever eaten and that the pre-packaged stuff at the HEB grocery store was better. I have to agree with her assessment. We would not recommend this place to anybody!! Pros: Seating Area was well decorated Cons: Slow service, mediocre food, indifferent staff more

Love the Sushi! 12/10/2009

by CPO at Citysearch Provided by Citysearch

The sushi was the best I've had in Austin so far. I loved the "Finn". It was fresh and uniquely prepared. Daily specials are offered and several at the table raved about the filet stuffed with crab meat. Great spot for a special evening or for a business dinner--I might have to just grab sushi at the sushi bar on my next visit. Pros: Great Food, Good Service, Nice Atmosphere more

Wonderful seafood experience 11/24/2009

We went on a night that was quite busy and our meal took a while to arrive. Our waitress was very helpful and even brought us something extra for our troubles. We will visit again. Pros: Delicious food, great service Cons: kitchen was a little slow more

Great place 10/16/2009

by JB55 at Citysearch Provided by Citysearch

Great service staff. We had dinner in one of the new private dining rooms (table of ten, highly suggest securing the "small PDR" for a group this size, our waiter Doug was fantastic. Both the General Manager Jason and the Chef Ryan visited our table. We opted for the sushi platter as a starter and then I chose the roasted duck breat as my entree. While the food was exceptional, I found the wine list diverse with many great wines by the glass. My wife and I chose an Albarino at the staff's suggestion and it was absolutely delightful. (without breaking the bank). Highly recommend and we'll be back! Pros: Great food with approachable wine list more

by rebsawy at Citysearch Provided by Citysearch

This restaurant is always a great experience! They have wonderful Salmon, & the sushi is excellent! The 1/2 price sushi happy hour is worth a visit! The atmosphere is elegant but not stuffy. This is my first choice for a nice dinner with friends or my husband in downtown Austin! Pros: Great Sushi!!!!! more

Amazing Dinner & Excellent Service! 6/22/2009

by hpnotiq_dime at Citysearch Provided by Citysearch

We went in with a group of 12 total for a nice dinner. We were seated in the semi private dining room and taken care of very well. Our servers were polite, attentive, & truly concerned about our comfort. Our group sampled everything from the calamari, to sushi, to the Trio-of steak, lobster & a crab cake! It was AMAZING. My hawaiin mahi mahi was fresh and perfectly prepared. Everything was exactly as I would expect from a fine dining establishment. I look forward to my next meal at Finn & Porter. Thanks to everyone for a wonderful evening. Pros: beautiful semi-private dining room, amazing staff! Cons: None... more

awful dining experience from beginning to end 6/19/2009

by austinfoodlover09 at Citysearch Provided by Citysearch

Wow!! What a mistake! My husband and I came here based on the decent reviews and couldn't have been more dissapointed. The waitstaff was unknowledgable, sloppy, and slow. The waiter knew nothing about wine and brought our drinks out 15 minutes after our dinner. My husband's dish was cold and had old mussells in it and mine had to be sent back because it was so off!! All in all a really bad experience for a fine dining establishment. There are so many other fantastic places in Austin. Don't waste your time or the hefty valet parking fee!!! :o( Pros: none Cons: cheesy atmosphere, sloppy waiters, bad food more

Had a great dinner at Finn & Porter the other night. We had a party of 8 and they were able to put us in a private dining area which was really nice. The waitstaff was very accomodating and the service was top notch. They had some sushi happy hour specials so the prices weren't bad at all. We got some calamari - big portion - for $5. This is a great restaurant for a group of people and the atmosphere is very nice. You forget that it's inside the Hilton. more

Overrated 5/6/2009

by Bukowski at Citysearch Provided by Citysearch

I took my wife and daughter there for my daughter's birthday. We were seated around six, and the light shining through the windows was so bright that it blinded us. We had to move to another table. The sushi rolls were good, but the steak was overcooked and tough. Our waiter was a nice enough guy, but he was sloppily dressed and slow. The noise from the bar upstairs was very loud, too. Not worth 200$. Next time, I'll go to ALC. Pros: Sushi rolls Cons: steak overcooked more

Great Steaks! 2/11/2009

by foodlovinmom at Citysearch Provided by Citysearch

We had a wonderful dinner here on a Monday night. We were actually staying at the hotel and I went on line to find a recommendation for a good steak in Austin..I was surprised to find Finn and Porter and all the wonderful reviews given here. It was a wonderful experience. Recently renovated and beautiful it has wonderful ambiance. Jason the manager made sure we had the most wonderful dining experience. Our server was equally greatl and the food was out of this world. My daughter and husband had the bone-in rib eye and said it was fabulous. I had the Finn and Porter trio and every bite was delicious. The crab cake was the best I have ever had! This is a wonderful place for a group or a romantic dinner. You will not be treated better anywhere else! Pros: Food and service Cons: none more

Fantastic! 10/19/2008

by Khouston at Citysearch Provided by Citysearch

For my Dad's retirement party dinner we wanted a restaurant that would provide not only a wonderful ambience, but outstanding food and service as well. Finn & Porters was the perfect choice! The manager (John) was helpful, knowledgeable and made us feel right at home. The food was fantastic. The crab cakes, sushi, and oysters were perfect. My halibut had an unepxected zing and flavor. Our steaks, and stuffed chicken were amazing. The wine options were outstanding. Every detail was taken into consideration by the staff and kitchen - and every course was worth the wait. The restaurant can be a little noisy thanks to the acoustics, but its well worth it. The menu is reasonably priced, the food and wine pairings are wonderful, and the staff is attentive and helpful. This is definitely a place worth putting on your favorites or must visit list! Pros: Food, Wine, Ambience, Service Cons: Parking, Construction on nearby streets more
