    Food and drinks were both fantastic! The crab tartlets and the bone marrow were our two favorite dishes of the evening.

    The cocktails and the cornbread caviar were amazing. The appetizers and small bites were very good, but the main courses were a disappointment. The aged Wagyu sirloin was chewy and definitely not medium rare. The outside was like charcoal and the inside was very rare. The pork was flavorless and was half fat. The broccolini was tough and too salty.

    After eating the oysters, which we liked, my husband got sick fairly early in the meal and had to make three trips to the restroom and was ill all night. I will likely inform the manager that perhaps one of the oysters was tainted. Overall, we were surprised by the Michelin star. There are a couple of other restaurants in Austin that are much better in food and value. The sirloin was cooked medium rare per request and was tender, but it was somewhat bland without the sauce. Unfortunately the fingerling potatoes were undercooked; the bocarones made it somewhat interesting. The chicken was a miss altogether - rubbery skin, overly sweet glaze, bland meat, sides were overly salty and just off. While we enjoyed the wine, the mark-up on the bottle was ridiculously high. We sat in the side dining room (the ambience was just okay) but still left smelling like roasted meat, which is not ideal if you have plans afterward. We had to leave without ordering dessert for my husband's birthday because he felt so ill.

    Most everything was far too salty and not at the caliber expected for the price point.
