Best Lunch Restaurants in Texas Hill Country

Is it worth the hype? 100%. We were able to snag a reservation for my birthday and it couldn’t have been better. Our reservation was at 5:15 and we arrived early at 5 and there was already a line out the door. It moved quickly and upon our turn we were taken to our table which was actually right at the Chefs table. While we were initially a little concerned about how it would affect our dinner, it made it so much more enjoyable. We had so much fun watching the chefs cook and getting a sneak peak at all the food. For starters, we had the tomato and burrata. It was such a clean and refreshing dish to start with. Tomatoes were roasted perfectly and the seasoning was great. For our mains, we had the 10oz filet, and the half portions of each of the following pastas: Agnolotti Alla Piemontese, Handmade Potato Gnocchi, and the Bishops Hat. The filet was cooked to perfection at medium rare. Had a nice crust and was seasoned nicely to bring out the steaks natural flavor. Out of the pastas, the gnocchi was probably our favorite but it is a tough choice as they were all so good! To finish, the Hot Chocolate Gianduja Cake. It came with a gelato that you could tell was homemade and I’m pretty sure we will be talking about it for months to come. The cake itself was so warm and the peanut butter was paired so nicely inside. We travel a lot and love to try new places. I am so glad we were able to get reservations as this may be our new favorite all around restaurant. Ambiance, service, food, value, everything 10/10.

My third time eating there, they never fail to amaze. Easily one my favorites in Austin. You cannot go wrong here, every time a great experience!!. Wonderful people working there and food to die for ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.

Wow! 5 stars all around. Our waiter was just so incredible - hand wrote on the menu which items to avoid and which could be modified based on an allergy that one of our party members had. He recommended such good dishes and even customized a little meal for the baby that was with us. Seriously, he is impeccable at his job. The food and drinks were 10/10. So fresh, such great flavours and beautiful presentation. Will be dreaming about the guacamole for months!

Huge shout out to our waiter Gio!! Best service I have had in a LONG time! Ask for him when making a reservation.

Food was delicious and shareable when in a big group.
