The Downtown location of Garbo’s Lobster revitalizes the historic Counter Café building at Lamar and 6th, bringing new life to a long-vacant Austin landmark. Working within a compact 720-square-foot footprint, the renovation replaced outdated infrastructure to meet modern standards while preserving the site’s unique character. Designed for efficient execution, the project supported a fast turnaround from build-out to opening, restoring a familiar corner of the city to active public use.
