  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Charming
Nestled between East Austin neighborhoods, Este celebrates fresh seafood, Mexican cuisine, and charcoal cooking. From the team behind the East 6th favorite, Suerte, Chef Fermin and restaurateur Sam Hellman-Mass are taking their love for masa coastal.

In a location with a rich history, Este’s bright dining spaces, artisan decor and spacious outdoor deck bring the energy of seaside towns to East Austin. An extensive wine list and vibrant coastal-inspired cocktails are the perfect pairing for aguachiles, ceviches, oysters y otros mariscos!

Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: From 2024 James Beard semifinalist and acclaimed Suerte chef Fermín Núñez, this chill seafood spot is all about mariscos—think shrimp aguachiles, tuna tiradito, and oysters splashed with salsa negra. The light and airy space features white rafters and hanging plants, and happy hour spills out onto a big back deck. All of it landed Este on Bon Appétit and Esquire’s best new restaurant lists in 2023.

    10/10. Loved the chips and salsa. The Saladito. The cevichito. The chocolate cake. Might skip the fried tuna taco/fish taco next time and go for the tuna tiradito instead. Delish!!!!

    Wow. The food was so good. We loved our waitress, ruby!! Our fave dish was the black cod. I was so surprised. But we also liked the ceviche, oysters, And the steak tacos. The best corn tortillas I have ever had!! The lime mezcal dessert was a very bright, tasty end!!

    Had a wonderful dining experience at Este. From the moment we walked into the restaurant, we could tell the next 3 hours were going to be delightful and memorable. The unique cocktails were a fun start to the evening. The wine list is manageable, yet broad and inclusive. Delighted in a fabulous orange wine and tasty Beaujolais. The food was delicious, creative and took your palate to the playas of Mexico. Be sure to conclude your evening with the Feast of Sweets, it is well worthwhile to try them all, but the Key Lime pie was sublime. Our server, Vanessa was exceptional! Her bright personality and knowledge of the cuisine ensured that we were going to have a uniquely Este experience.
