Absolutely beautiful place to grab a quick bite. The water views and the jovial atmosphere makes it a really unique place to... hang out with friends or family. Also great for first dates. Read more
For those who haven?t been since the re-concept and re-opening this year, it?s worth it to pay a visit! What a breath of fresh... air! Clean new look (dare I call it lakeside retro chic?) with friendly service and great food. Several different zonesincluding a new air conditioned dining room and inside bar. Drinks are now served in real, branded glassware. Bathrooms now haveA/C. Boat parking has been improved, and best of all, the staff is now smiling! Read more
The new Ski Shores is a major improvement. The food is better. The service is better, and it still has the same great local... vibe. My family all loved what they ordered. I ordered the Cobb salad which was so yummy even without adding a protein. Ioriginally was going to order the fish tacos, but they didn?t have corn tortillas as an option (I?m gluten free). We boated upwith friends which is the only way to visit IMO. Read more
Great view and the atmosphere was great. The fans with misters helped in the triple-digit summer heat. We liked the QR code... online ordering app via ToastTab and made service faster. The kids have a great playground, too. Food and drink were top notch,too! The shrimp were not overcooked! Read more
We used to come here at least biweekly just enjoy ourselves, we were so excited for it to reopen. Definitely not disappointed!... They kept the great local vibe and elevated it. The food is SO MUCH BETTER and new drinks are great, too. The new staff is alsowonderful - kind and fast. This is a great place to relax with your family for a good meal on the lake. Great area for kids toplay still as well. We?re so glad to have our favorite local spot back open and couldn?t be more thrilled with the improvements. Read more
We were sat right next to the water. Excellent view. The food is your standard fried food affair. The view is what pulls you in.... They have speciality drinks. I ordered the frozen margarita, it was little on the small side, but definitely did not skip on thealcohol. Fried shrimp was very good. Rose I was told, is on the dry side rather an sweet. Worth attending if you have a boat. Read more
A group of us shared a few apps (chips w/three dips, and two sets of wings) and I got a Black and Bleu Burger. The chips and... dips were all tasty with good flavour. For wing flavours we ordered Lemon Pepper and an order of Buffalo. The Buffalo spicelevel was nice and mild, very traditional. Lemon Pepper was well balance and not overly citrus. One of the things I thought wasreally good about the wings was how they were very crisp but still moist on the inside; a balance a lot of places strugglewith. The burger was alright. I enjoyed it, I'd order it again; it just didn't really wow me. The bread for the bun was anexcellent choice; for light and fluffy but they lightly toast the interior part of it. Then there is the atmosphere. You areright on Lake Austin and fish and turtles swim right up to you! A beautiful scenery, great food, definitely makes this a returnplace. Read more
Absolutely loving the new Ski Shores, the food is super yum! Great space, love the updates, super friendly staff. The only... thing to modify could be fresh-brewed iced tea, but overall the most wonderful place, fun, relaxing & so lovely! Updatingreview as they've added Electric Jellyfish IPA to the menu, great for craft beer lovers + dog friendly! Read more
