- SShantaeAustin •6 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoThis has to be my new favorite restaurant! The food was incredible. I ordered the Croque Madame for brunch. Packed with jamon and topped with a fried egg…was absolutely heavenly. The atmosphere is so delightful… I felt like I was transported to a Parisian cafe. Such a great experience and can’t wait to go back and try dinner there soon!More infoJune's All DayPrice: Moderate• Contemporary American• South Austin•4.8
- LLaurenAustin •4 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoIf you’re looking for a dining experience that perfectly blends French elegance with bold Texas flavors, this restaurant is a must-visit! From start to finish, every bite was an adventure. We started with the whipped chèvre spread—possibly the best goat cheese I’ve ever had. It was perfectly balanced between tangy and savory, with a delightful crunch. We even saved the last bits to pair with our entrees! The Bacon Jam Gougères were the ultimate French/Texas fusion—flaky, savory, and absolutely indulgent. For entrees, the duck confit was cooked to perfection, and the sea bass had an unexpected twist that elevated it to the next level. Both were amazing and highly recommend. Just when we thought it couldn’t get better, we ended with the pecan pie-inspired éclair. Imagine all the richness of pecan pie reimagined in a light, airy pastry—it was pure genius and the perfect sweet finish to an extraordinary meal. The ambiance was warm and inviting, the service flawless, and the menu’s creativity unmatched. Whether you’re celebrating or just treating yourself, this place delivers an unforgettable experience. We can’t wait to come back and explore more of this incredible menu. Props to the chef of this fantastic addition to the Austin restaurant scene.More infoSerenade American BrasseriePrice: Expensive• Contemporary French / American• Downtown•4.1
