Specialties

Freshly crafted meals, using quality ingredients. We don’t have a microwave any where in the building! When you order it, that’s when we make it!

History

Established in 2013.

The founder of Austin’s is a 7th generation Texan who has lived in North Carolina, Georgia, Puerto Rico, and Belize, Central America. In his travels, he picked up many culinary nuggets and infuses those in his menu. It doesn’t hurt that his mother was a Texas State Fair cooking champion. At Austin’s, you’ll find an ecclectic mix of items including traditional American fare, but also incluences from Latin America, Asian cuisine, and more.

Meet the Business Owner

Steven A.

Business Owner

Steven Austin Stovall was born and raised in East Texas, which geographically, is a confluence of Texas BBQ, Mexican cooking, and Cajun cuisine. This variety had a unique influence on him as did his mother, who was a Texas State Fair cooking champion, winning Best of Show. Having lived in numerous places — including Puerto Rico and Belize — it is easy to see how his love of good food, made with fresh ingredients permeates the Austin’s menu. In addition to owning Austin’s, Stovall is a professor of business at nearby Wilmgton College, where he teaches entrepreneurship, human resources management, and business strategy.

The food is made with fresh ingredients. My favorite dish is the Timichanga. We go often and the only complaint I have is that the service can be quite slow, even when they aren’t that busy. If you aren’t in a rush, this is a great place to go.

Great atmosphere, average food, good service. I’d expected a little more. But overall not bad, and will return again.

Found austins by using Unilocal.We were in town for a car show. Husband and I decided to sit at the bar where the bartender was pretty funny. She had most of the bar laughing. Hubby had from recommendation the pb burger and I had the chimichanga. The burger was very sweet almost too sweet but the chimichanga was great. We will come back. It’s worth a try to anyone who hasn’t.

We came for lunch. It took over an hour to get appetizers. Mac and cheese bites were yummy, ancho fries would have been good if fresh. Three of four kids meals were cold and the fourth was cold and burned. The adult meals were very inconsistent. Nothing came out fresh. The place has potential but the service was way too slow and the food as prepared was mediocre.

This is my third time having lunch at Austin’s
All three times the food has been great. Wonderful wraps and for the adventuresome you have to try the Peanut butter and jelly burger.

Been here 3 different times, and have had a bad experience every time. Went in for lunch, waited approx. 5 min to be seated, and about 20 minutes to order food. They weren’t very busy, and only had 1 girl waiting tables, another lady was just sitting by the bar not doing anything. I am very disappointed and will not be back.

I wonder now why I waited so long to try this place. My wife had the Apple Butter Pork Chops and I had the Stuffed Burger and we where both very happy with our choices. Service was fast and better than most.
Can’t wait to try the rest of the menu.

Wow what a terrible experience. Just very disorganized and slow service. My pork was everything you don’t want pork to be… Dry and lifeless. My friends steak was equally tragic. I went in with high expectations based off Unilocal reviews and this is honesty one of those times Unilocal couldn’t be more wrong. I actually felt sorry for the people going in as we left which is a rare thing for me.

Food was very good, but service was only ok. Waitstaff did not seem to want to be there.
I got one of the specials, chicken strawberry pecan salad with feta. Pecans had a delicious spice coating and feta was moist and not dried out. It was very yummy! Have to say that the regular menu could use a little more variety, but they seemed to have staples that would please most.

Food is really fresh, daily specials, fair prices, often have new menu items to try, drinks are great, and staff is always friendly. Not a lot of great places to eat in this town, but Austin’s never disappoints!

After reading the reviews I thought this place would be awesome. I think we picked the wrong day, ordered the wrong thing and came at the wrong time. I’ll give it another shot but I don’t like leaving a restaurant hungry.

My husband and I went to Austin’s for our anniversary in May. I enjoyed the laid-​back atmosphere and the varied menu selection.
I am allergic to dairy, soy, gluten, and eggs, so dining out is a challenge. Not only did they have several options for me to try, but our server was more than willing to ask the kitchen staff about what was in their rice (which was delicious).
The menu is priced just right for what you get — not a bargain but I didn’t leave feeling like I overspent.
This is a good option for Wilmington residents sick of Hamburger Alley and who aren’t in the mood for Beaugard’s, Happy Wok, or El Dorados (my other choices for food that doesn’t disappoint).

Ate here on a solo late lunch. Since it was 2 PM on a workday, it wasn’t crowded. They have specials written on a huge wall visible to the entire dining room, which I like so I don’t have to ask the waiter or get out of my seat to go read it. Ordered a wrap w/​fries for $ 8. Tasty, well-​presented. Service was friendly. Nicely decorated with a nice bar in the back.

I found out about this restaurant from a lady in the Christian bookstore. I had lunch for the first time here and I ordered the Grilled Chicken Teriyaki Salad special. I thought it was only $ 8, but the price wasn’t marked on the chalk board only to find out it was $ 10. It always pays to check with the waitress next time if something isn’t marked down. My waitress was friendly and made sure everything was to my liking with the salad. I think they should put more greens in the salad because I’ve went to a place in Pittsburgh, PA called Red Oak Café that gave me plenty of greens for a $ 9 salad. Overall, I thought the salad was average. I’ll have to come back and try other menu items.

We have deeply mixed feelings about Austin’s. The service is hit or miss from our experience. One server clearly didn’t want to be there, and it really showed. Overall the service is friendly, but very slow.
The food is almost fantastic, except for one problem: if you order a salad, you’re going to spend some time picking out rotten greens. This has happened every time we’ve eaten there. I know the logical option is to not order salad, but that shouldn’t be an issue in any restaurant!
The rest of the food is wonderful. Their loaded potato soup is the best I’ve had, hands down.

The Cuban wasn’t the best I ever had. Still good though. Maybe some different bread besides a hoagie. I’d order it again. Side salad was fine. Didn’t care for the red wine vinaigrette even though I enjoy a balsamic. Service a tad slow. I would come back to try other dishes. Nice interior.

Pros– clean, family owned, reasonably priced, cheeseburger and timichanga were both good, variety of unique homemade dishes
Cons– waited 36 minutes after ordering for food to arrive, appetizers (pizza sticks and pretzels) were nothing too exciting, owner walked around and spoke to people he knew, but didn’t seem to concerned with «out of towners» and it was 65 degrees so bring a coat to wear!

Kylie gave slow and abusive service. Stepped on my toe and made me serve the table. Actually she was wonderful!!! They hire very well here. 90 minute interviews one server told us. The front of the place is poorly designed and market is weak. The owner needs some advice on marketing but he/​she hires well and has a great chef. This is a nice oasis in small town Wilmington.
