McArthur’s is one of the snazzy new restaurants at Oaks at Lakeway with big televisions, a roomy all-season patio and an enormous bar. Think gastropub with a sports bar twist and sprinkle of modern industrial flair. The atmosphere is sophisticated, yet easy-going and friendly — conducive to watching any and all sporting events with ease.
And now the food matches the sophisticated vibe.
McArthur’s has been consulting with an executive chef out of California to elevate their menu and the overall experience. New dishes like the Louisiana Hot Fried Chicken Sandwich, the Wine Country Burger (pictured above) and Cumin Roasted Salmon are delighting local palates.
Wait … we haven’t even talked about weekday happy hour specials, breakfast served daily and Kids Eat Free night yet!
What You’ll See
McArthur’s is just one of those places that’s fun to visit. The space features an indoor-outdoor bar with plenty of seating.
On most days, everyone flocks to the patio because it’s so inviting. You can lounge at a big table or sit at the the pass-through that divides the indoor/outdoor space with glass garage doors. They even have a lot of blankets, so you can stay warm on a breezy evening.
The indoor dining area can easily accommodate groups of all sizes. There are bar height tables and counter height tables, as well as comfy booths tucked away in the corners. It’s perfect for date night or family night.
Peppered throughout the restaurant are flat screen TVs and sports memorabilia, so it definitely embraces the community’s love of all-thing sports.
What You’ll Get
General Manager Robin Martinez is happy about the new direction McArthur’s is exploring.
“The changes we’re making are very exciting, because we’re getting great feedback from our patrons. When you walk in, you’ll get the true McArthur’s experience with food that tastes delicious and looks beautiful on the plate.”
Other menu additions include a Smokey Salmon BLT, the Miyagi Burger with teriyaki, bacon, avocado, and onion tempura.
One Heck of a Margarita
If you’re in the mood for a margarita, McArthur’s serves them up with style.
According to TJ, he makes one of the best margaritas in town. And perhaps he does. He makes them naturally skinny with fresh ingredients and good tequila. He describes it as, “no frills.” Not too tart; not too sweet. In other words, perfection.

Which new dish is making your mouth water?
Tom D. says
Patty is the abbreviation for the female name Patricia. If you must abbreviate ST. Patrick’s Day, it would be Paddy’s Day.
