Neighbourhood gem
Charming
Great for fine wines

We are a bustling neighborhood restaurant in the heart of north loop. We are one of Austins oldest farm to table concepts. Our menu is foreign in style, while domestically sourced. Our menus change with the season, farm availability, & on chefs whim. Join us for our nose to tail tasting menu nightly if you appreciate whole animal usage. Our wine program is aimed toward biodynamic natural small production wines. If you'd like to have pre or post dinner cocktails, our awesome neighbors include the tigress bar & drink.well.
Please note that we have a 15 minute grace period on reservation arrival times. Should you find yourself running late, please give us a call or the table may be released to a waiting guest.
Tables of 1-2 guests will be reserved for 1.5 hours, tables of 3-4 will be reserved for 1 hour and 45 minutes, tables of 6+ will be reserved for 2 hours. These times reflect standard dining times of our guests. Should you feel that you need additional time, please notate this.

Had the best brunch this weekend. The small plates all sound too good too choose one.The popovers and cinnamon rolls are delicious. The f&d benny was a favorite and washed it all down with the blueberry and oj mimosa. Definitely will back for the biscuits, crepes, pancakes and fried chicken biscuits!

I had the cassoulet and it was extremely delicious. The duck leg was confit and then they put it in the oven to crisp up the skin.

great service and the food was really good. I only had had some issue with the steak since was a little raw and not as much medium rare but think the cut of meat was not my favorite but the rest of the dishes were superb

Another outstanding meal at Foreign & Domestic. This really is at the top of the Austin dining tree - seemingly simple food, executed flawlessly, and served with grace and warmth. The menu is pin sharp, not messing around, and every bite delivers. Cannot recommend it highly enough.

This place is a gem !!! Fresh and wholesome farm to table delicious food. Our waiter and host were terrific. Just a personal pet peeve of mine is not enjoying having to order my food all at once. It would have been nice to have the food more staggered. Overall, a restaurant that I love to return to.

farm to table restaurant. quality ingredients locally sourced and excellent dishes, but expensive overall. service was attentive. only beer and wine, no cocktails. Happy hour is 50% off wine bottles < $100 and they had nice $1 small fresh East Coast oysters. This is a special occasion restaurant.
