Such a good lunch spot in Austin!

Excellent value. The price was right. The anti pasta was better than the main. But I loved the little anti pasta bar. I think the meatballs were just not my style. Many others had them and seemed way more enthused. I loved the staff – the guy who helped me was awesome. The atmosphere was great. Park behind the restaurant. Excellent lunch or brunch spot.

Incredible spot! Great food for a great price! The happy hour was a nice surprise and the little snacks they dish out were very tasty. The meatballs were definitely the star here. I highly suggest you try them! The patio is a vibe and the staff here were very chill. We got some spritzes and I highly suggest getting them! We’ll be back for sure!

LOVE. we live in Lakeway and everything always closes early so was so grateful to see this place open. I was craving pasta with red wine and they had the most delicious red wine open and I had the shrimp scampi. The pasta was out of this world and the atmosphere felt like cute cozy whole in the wall. The lighting had great vibes and music was calming and created a cute ambiance. Our bartender was so chill energy yet friendly and the service was perfect! We will be back!

Its a cute corner shop where locals hung out for coffee, wine, varieties of sweet and savory food. Unfortunately for us, some items we wanted to try the most wasn’t available. What we choose eventually was ok, but i wish to switch to a _real_ cheese on your sandwiches. What teal cheese is and how it taste and looks like can be find out at the cheese shop next door. I like my mocktail.

Great little place, they have a good selection of pasta dishes, we ordered Rigatoni and fettuccine alfredo and they were both really good. And at a good price $17-$18

The staff was very attentive and pleasant. They were busy and still managed to keep up with everything with a smile. Veronica took great care of us, and her attitude just made everything about the place better. Some fans in the corners may help keep the guests and staff cooler during 100+ temps. Other than that the place has a s great vibe.

Stopped in for a quick happy hour for a refreshing cocktail and a snack. The drinks are solid, the Italian inspired cocktails, called Spritz we had the namesake and the Bacca. Both were delicious. We also had a cheese plate that was unfortunately very underwhelming. But it’s a great neighborhood stop. Drop in for some breakfast and an espresso, a beer and a sandwich, and a solid happy hour. Thanks to my Love who is always open and excited for our next adventure. Life is sweeter with you in it. Love you

I ordered the parfait, the mini ricotta pancakes and Nicky’s favorite ice coffee. The coffee is iced and it comes with oat milk. It’s so thicc and it’s rich chocolate flavor is delicious. I think the ice cubes are a nice touch it lets the coffee stay thick and will not dilute. The pancakes are a refreshing flavor. They are not overly sweet. If you like overly sweet add the maple syrup. The parfait was good. The fruit was not ripe so everything was a little more sour than I personally like. I think more honey would have balanced the yogurt and the tartness of the fruit. Overall everything was good one complaint is there was a fly buzzing around and it was annoying.

Had the chicken Alfredo. Noodles were perfectly cooked and chicken was tender. Sauce was good and I liked that it wasnt over salty.
