My new favorite restaurant in Austin! The service and ambiance were perfect. Absolutely delicious food and drinks. Their Rosemary Sourdough Focaccia, Spaghetti Cacio e Pepe, Conchiglie, and Chicken are must tries! Everything is sharable and served family style. Definitely worth eating at this restaurant!

Overrated & extremely expensive “Italian” cuisine.

Appetizers and a bottle of wine is a must! The main dishes tasted great and the staff was able to provide a small birthday surprise.

We ordered the Tagliatelle and Creste di Gallo. They were nothing short of spectacular. The pasta was cooked to al dente perfection, and the balance of flavors in the sauce & ingredients was exquisite.

The Mysterious Diner
Fantastic drink menu and great neighborhood style restaurant but the current menu is a bit let down. Overall, I would come back for a different menu or items, and the spritz was great. You guys definitely put thoughts on the menu. Lots of techniques, interesting ingredients and recipes were used, but everything seems a bit experimental aka too much fusion.

We found this amazing Italian fusion place that I can genuinely recommend as an Austinite to people who are visiting us. I think the food was just so unique and flavorful. They just didn’t take the easy route – hybridizing a pizza and selling it. They source sustainably and they have limited their menu to a small selection, highly curated and every detail is well thought out. We loved the sourdough focaccia and the fresh mozzarella with pickled shishito pepper! The meatballs in the polpette were fresh and delicious and I’ll also highly recommend the Tagliatelle. But what blew me away was the pistachio risotto with crispy fennel on top, that was just fantastic. Make sure to get a reservation and street parking is limited but available. Everyone is really nice and caring, the place gets busy so plan accordingly. One of my Austin favorites as a local guide.

Beautiful evening so we sat outside as the sun went down. The staff was kind enough to light the heater for us. (Noticed they also have wall space heaters over some of the tables! Nice.)

One of our favorite restaurants in Austin. They always serve up beautifully presented and delicious food. We came here for a quick after-dinner tiramisu, and accidentally ordered the cannoli as well, whoopsie. I’ve never been a fan of cannoli, but this one was crispy, light, and perfect. The tiramisu is honestly the best I’ve had, ever, it is even better than my own, which I begrudgingly say. It’s like it’s handed down from heaven. A perfect creamy, espresso dream.

Interesting flavors and colors cascade against the vanilla Mueller veneer. We were surprised how smokey the kale and broccoli was. The pasta was thick and spicy while the risotto was fluffy and tangy and kept you going back for more. Able to drop in without a reservation on Thirsday night.

We LOVED our dining experience. We sat on the patio as we brought our service dog in training. The staff was all very friendly and attentive, even bringing our pup a bowl of water.
