Best Live Music Restaurants in West Austin / Westlake

Long-time favorite. Latest visit was to celebrate an anniversary -- which we noted in the reservation and the restaurant made it very special, from adorning the table with some decorative touches, a Happy Anniversary placard, and even a special dessert to make the occasion even sweeter. Service is always on-point, food is delicious, and the ambiance is charming. In a city where new restaurants and dining spots are coming and with the latest fads, this place is a tried-&-true institution that sticks to its roots! And for that, I always enjoy my meal and my visit and will continue to return. This place is as special as the reason to celebrate!

Always fabulous food, fun ambiance and wonderful service! Very friendly staff and attentive care! The jazz on Saturday night was fantastic! Love the Mexican martinis!

We had an amazing experience. Our Server recognized us from the night before and he went out of his way to prove that Laurel dropped the ball the night before. We were treated like royalty and we didn't even ask for it. We were visited by an Executive and he apologized, as well, for the night before. There are a lot of places near the hotel to eat. I am glad that we didn't allow our Valentine's Dinner experience to stop us from an outstanding Breakfast experience!!!

We really enjoyed It's Italian Cucina. The food was excellent the service was very good. We utilized the prefix menu for Valentine's Dinner and enjoyed every course. Our waitress Katie was quick to help us choose a good wine to go with all our choices. The gluten free options were a nice bonus so my wife could confidently choose her dishes. The service was very well timed, enough so we could enjoy but not so long that we had dirty plates waiting in front of us. Over all an excellent restaurant for a special meal like Valentine's. It was remarkably inexpensive as well. I was surprised the prefix menu with a bottle of wine for two was less than $80 before tip. I would definitely recommend.

Very pretty place, including the hotel itself. Spent some time at the bar downstairs and then up at Geraldine’s. It seemed almost quiet in comparison, which was great for dinner and then around 9 o’clock. The band came on and it was extremely loud but if I was coming to see the band that would’ve been great. If I had started my dinner 10 minutes before they went on I don’t think we would’ve been able to talk that much. But depending on what you’re wanting to do either experience would be great. Just good to know what you’re getting into. It worked out perfect for us as we had a long three hour dinner and then caught at the beginning of the band before moving on. Good times will definitely come back.
