Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Chef/Owner John Carver

From the OpenTable editors: It can take months to get into Chef John Carver’s wildly popular Italian restaurant, where there’s a custom woodfired grill at the heart of the industrial space. But it’s worth the wait for fresh pasta and epic steaks, like the cappelletti “bishop’s hats” stuffed with spinach and sauced with brown butter, alongside a 50-day dry-aged porterhouse “la Fiorentina.” Don’t miss the charred veggies, like roasted vine tomatoes with creamy burrata, and wash it all down with a house negroni.

    My wife and I chose Red Ash in Austin to celebrate our 1st anniversary, and from the moment we walked in, it was clear we were in for a special night. The entire staff remembered our occasion, and their hospitality went above and beyond—they surprised us with a signed card from the staff and complimentary champagne, making us feel truly valued as guests. The service was excellent—attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly without being intrusive. Our server Jarrod guided us through the menu, ensuring we had an incredible dining experience. Now, the food… simply outstanding. We ordered: Bruschetta with steak trimmings – A rich and flavorful start, perfectly balanced with a slight crunch. Grilled octopus – Cooked to perfection, tender with a nice char and a smoky depth of flavor. Angliotte pasta – A fantastic dish, fresh and delicate with a savory sauce that complemented it beautifully. Blue crab pasta – Easily one of the highlights of the night—generous portions of sweet blue crab, perfectly paired with the pasta and sauce. Every dish showcased Red Ash’s mastery of wood-fired cooking, with bold flavors and high-quality ingredients. The ambiance was warm and inviting, perfect for an intimate celebration. If you're looking for a memorable fine-dining experience in Austin, whether for a special occasion or just a fantastic meal, Red Ash delivers on every level. We’ll definitely be back!

    A Must-Try Dining Experience! I highly recommend starting with the bone marrow appetizer—absolutely delicious! The gnocchi side dish was rich and flavorful, a perfect complement to the meal. We also shared the porterhouse, which was cooked to perfection and simply amazing. I’ll definitely be coming back!

    Made reservations in January for March 5 a weeknight. Delicious food and great service starting at the the hostess desk. Our server was very Knowledgeable in the gluten free options for those that require safe options. Many selections that can be modified. The gluten free homemade penne was delicious in the red sauce. I added lobster tails. The meatballs contain gluten. The in house made gelato was superb.
