    Addi was our server and she was so sweet! I think we got lucky cause we were the only ones there for almost the whole time we were there so we got spoiled with time. We had the garlic fries and carrots for an appetizer. The portions are PERFECT!! Not too much, not too little. I hate wasting food so it was the ideal amount for 2 people. We each had the steak. He had the Kansas City and I had the Denver. Beautifully prepared and served. SOOOO GOOD!! We also don’t drink and they had a really wide selection of mocktails and non-alcoholic drinks. I got the watermelon mojito and it was delicious. For dessert we had the churro donuts. They are 4 little churros in a donut shape with a nice scoop of coffee ice cream. Perfect way to end the dinner. The ambience was really nice. Since we went on a Monday I couldn’t tell you what it’s like when it’s busy but the place was very clean. I’m glad we came here and next time we’re in Austin, we’ll come back to try more stuff from the menu.

    The vibe of the restaurant was great. The other parts of the restaurant did not live up to expectations. The waiter was not attentive nor was he proactive. We needed to ask for refills on wine and drinks the entire evening. The food was slow to come out and it was extremely salty. We had high hopes of a great evening but we felt extremely let down. Everyone has a bad night, and maybe this was theirs. I cannot recommend this restaurant, but maybe they redeem themselves with the next patrons.

    The food is good and well executed. However the menu is all over the place in terms of flavours. Indian/ Italian/ Asian/ American. They need to narrow down the menu and focus on one cuisine. That said the crab fried rice and mussels were excellent. Scallops were cooked perfectly but the romescu sauce was too acidic and the rice lacked flavour. Good drinks, but pricey. Service was good and attentive.
