Located on the 5th floor of the Austin Proper Hotel, La Piscina Ceviches & Fajitas is a convivial poolside restaurant and bar serving Texas-inspired Mexican cuisine. The vibrant, open space overlooks the downtown Austin bustle as groups convene over family-style platters, ceviches and table-top sizzling fajitas, with fresh seafood grilled over a wood fire and house-made tortillas from an open comal. The bar provides an accompanying selection of frozen margaritas, native Mexican spirits, small-batch tequila and mezcal as well as an assortment of outdoor-friendly snacks.

A complete homerun! La Piscina was recommended by a colleague as one of the best places to get fajitas, which is saying a lot to someone from San Diego. Every single dish was amazing! The Red Snapper Aguachille (like ceviche but better) was so tasty we immediately ordered another! The lobster quesadilla was great, full of hearty lobster meat, not overly cheesy at all. The ribeye “aranchera” fajitas had some of the best flavor we’ve had. Our server Jorge (gorge? sp?) was incredibly helpful! I love when servers really guide you, invested in your experience not just the price of a dish! He steered us in and out of all the perfect dishes. We WILL be repeat offenders!

La Piscina is my all time fave Austin eatery. 10/10 across the board every time. Took my mom there for her first time (she's picky) and she loved it. The interior design is super aesthetic yet comfortable and we love that.
