    Tiramisu
    Melissa B.

    The Good: The food and service was a great! With so many places trying to put a twist on "old fashioned" Italian cuisine, I was in heaven. Also, don't discount the stuffed mushrooms - they were amazing. The Not So Good: The ambiance was pleasant but the decor could probably use some updating. The Bad: My friend ordered the carbonara and it came out salty for her taste. Could have just been a one off moment in the food prep for the evening.

    5 stars for being a neighborhood staple for decades. It's not often that a small local restaurant is able to last this long. 5 stars for almost always having availability. 5 stars for really good service. The food itself is above average Italian (maybe 4 stars imho), but the biggest rec I have is to always order the tiramisu here!

    Look for this sign!

    This could have been a WONDERFUL dinner...... however this evening was the night the 3rd worst storm in Austin history landed as we were literally walking to the restaurant Small neighborhood Italian restaurant lots of 50's like atmosphere without records, poodle skirts & juke box, more rat pack without the Frank, Dean & Sammy photos. We ordered and our food did come out quite quickly ~ I ordered fresh corn risotto arrived with beautiful slivers of pecorino cheese & a handful of arugula, really good definitely would order again. My hubs ordered the carbonara, which gets mentioned a lot as a restaurant favorite was exceptional, he orders it frequently so I take his word for it ~ Asti survived the storm, we all stayed dry however their fan exhaust on their roof didn't~ so they announced they would get all the orders out, then would be closing for the evening ~ I know they are open again so will definitely be back very soon

    In the very established neighborhood of Hyde Park, Asti Trattotia feels like a very established restaurant filled with regular customers. The staff were friendly and efficient and the restaurant itself was intimate and cozy. We ordered a slew of dishes and decided to treat dinner family style in our group of three. We all ordered Capelletti spritzes which were delicious and refreshing. We then got the calamari and Caesar salad as appetizers. The calamari was tough and the breading tasted like old oil and the lettuce used for the Caesar salad wasn't as fresh as I would have liked it to be. For mains we got the margherita pizza, the lasagna rotolo, and the risotto. The pizza was good everall with soft crust and fresh topping, the risotto was good as well, but the lasagna was definitely not what we were expecting. It was a rolled lasagna with only one sheet of pasta and the rest was a dry and extremely salty bolognese. It was broiled or baked before serving, so the top of it was burnt and charred which was not very appetizing. Overall, the food was fine, but the quality does not justify the steep prices. We probably wouldn't make the drive to return.

    Spaghetti Carbonara
    Jason L.

    I'm a sucker for carbonara and almost always order it when it's on the menu so when in Rome, er Austin, I had to give in. Glad I did. It was creamy, cheesy, had just the right amount of egg and it carried a lot guanciale fat and flavor from the big chunks of it strewn throughout. Quite good. Every table gets an order of fresh olive and butter focaccia too. Friendly service and very nice, cozy atmosphere.

    Stuffed Mushrooms ($14)

    Asti Trattoria is a fantastic spot for a date night, celebratory dinner, or just enjoying some delicious Italian food! The pricing is reasonable, the food was tasty and presented well, and the service was great overall. This was our first visit but we will definitely be back! My husband and I made reservations for 8:00 pm on a Saturday night and were seated right away. We noted on our OpenTable reservation that we were celebrating our wedding anniversary, but that wasn't acknowledged at all. FAST FACTS: *Parking - available on the front and side of the restaurant (additional parking in the Fresh Plus lot next door) *Reservations - available online through OpenTable (call the restaurant for parties of 5 or more) *Online ordering - available on their website for pickup through ToastTab *Patio - fully covered and heated *Closed on Mondays *Happy hour - Tuesday through Friday from 4:00 - 6:00 pm *Brunch - Sunday from 10:00 am - 3:00 pm SERVICE - Our server, Mitch, was great overall! He had a great personality and did a great job of recommending dishes. Our food came out quickly after ordering and was paced well throughout the meal. Toward the end, we were the only ones seated in the back section of the restaurant so there were a few times when we were waiting a while for refills on our drinks. PRICING - The total was $117.99 after tax ($8.99) but before tip for stuffed mushrooms ($14), salad special ($18), fig & prosciutto pizza ($17), two spaghetti carbonara ($21 each), side of fingerling potato salad ($6), and tiramisu ($12). I think the pricing was reasonable for the portion sizes and quality of ingredients. Complimentary focaccia bread is served to the table and you can ask for more if needed. It isn't warm but it's very fluffy and tastes great! STUFFED MUSHROOMS (9/10) - These were phenomenal! We got 7 mushroom caps so it made the perfect appetizer to split. The combination of ricotta, parmesan, and goat cheese was DELICIOUS! I'd order this again! SALAD SPECIAL (6/10) - We decided to try this since it was a special for the night... it had whipped ricotta, beets, seasonal greens tossed in a lemon vinaigrette, and was sprinkled with crushed pistachio. It was good but didn't blow us away because the flavors were all pretty muted. I did appreciate that they split it between two plates for us. I probably wouldn't order this again. FIG & PROSCIUTTO PIZZA (7/10) - The pizzas are a great option for an appetizer! The crust is super crispy and you can tell it's housemade... plus the pizza overall isn't greasy or oily. The taleggio and mozzarella cheeses were so flavorful and the prosciutto was cooked perfectly. I would have loved more fig preserves throughout the pizza to bring more sweetness and the watercress didn't add anything to the pizza. I'd definitely order a pizza again but might try a different flavor next time. SPAGHETTI CARBONARA (9/10) - This was the highlight of the meal! The portion size is perfect and the spaghetti noodles are housemade and on the thicker side which I loved. The sauce was delicious, had the perfect consistency, and the guanciale was so flavorful! The cracked black pepper on top was tasty but I could have used a little more salt (the bites with guanciale were great but bites without were lacking slightly). I'd order this again! FINGERLING POTATO SALAD (8/10) - I loved this side because it's very unique! I've never had fingerling potatoes in a potato salad but the texture was great! The server described the potato salad as being between a Texas potato salad and a German potato salad and I'd say that description was spot on. It's very creamy but has a slight sweetness to it. I'd order this again! CLASSIC TIRAMISU (8/10) - This was a different take on what I'd consider a "classic" tiramisu but I really enjoyed it! It leans more on the chocolate side than espresso... I would have loved a dusting of espresso powder on top or a stronger espresso flavor in the soaked ladyfingers. But, the candied almonds were very unique and worked well with the flavors! I'd order this again! I think Asti Trattoria is highly underrated when it comes to Italian restaurants in Austin! I'll definitely be back to try some other dishes and will recommend it to others!

    LOVE! The pasta is absolutely delicious and service and ambiance were on point. Highly recommend!

    GF focaccia
    Kalei L.

    Takeaways: literally wish I live in Austin so I could eat here again, incredible experience for both gf and non-gf people Food: 5 Gluten Free Options: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4 Cleanliness: 5 Restroom cleanliness: 5 Summary: I was here w my sister, I am gluten free and she is not. Both of us were SO happy with our experience. Service was attentive, welcoming, and helpful. We only ate a couple of things, but it was FIRE. She loved their crunchy bread sticks that were on the table (idk what they're called lol), and when they found out I was gluten free they brought me GF focaccia that had both my sister and I eating carbs like calories don't matter We both ordered the spaghetti carbonara and it was INCREDIBLE (we ate it too fast and forgot to take a picture). Her non-gf was delicious, and my gf noodles were sooooo good - not crumbly or overcooked. Everything is made in house except the gf noodles, the gf focaccia was in house too. Sauce was a 10/10. I saw someone else in a review complaining about small portions - I thought it was just right. We both finished our meals and weren't hungry after but we also weren't stuck to our chairs. The only reason I have a 4 for atmosphere was it was kind of quiet in there, but to be fair we were like the first party in there when they opened.

    Asti is a cute Italian restaurant that was converted from an old fashion countertop diner. The service was good. No complaints there. The food was good - I had no complaints with our meal. Is it my favorite Italian food in the city - no. But it was fine. The lasagna was okay - I have had more better, I wouldn't get again. The pizza was also okay - smaller than expected and just again it was okay, I wouldn't get again. I tried my dad's Duck Parpadelle he got and it was the best dish at our table. The duck was super tender and shredded nicely into the sauce. It is a very heavy dish so you will have leftover. The homemade pasta noodles in this dish were great as well.

    Stuffed Mushrooms
    Matthew H.

    Some people might assume after over two decades in business, a restaurant may become stale. They could rest on the tried and true, deftly serving a loyal clientele favorite dishes, fine wines and sweet desserts. ASTI Trattoria has been in business since 2001. Forget stale: Their menu is innovative offering true Italian cuisine, some straight traditional and some with a little twist of new ingredients and presentation. Chef and owner Emmett Fox works in the front-facing portion of the kitchen line, making sure each dish looks beautiful before heading to the table. It also gives him the chance to greet guests and table check how the food tastes. We had two courses going with the Stuffed Mushrooms ($14) and the Burata Caprese ($16) as an antipasti and the Grilled Rainbow Trout ($27) and a pair of pastas for the Primo course. The mushrooms were stuffed with three cheeses - ricotta, goat and parmesan topped with bread crumbs and truffle oil. Six to an order. They go great with an opening cocktail. The trout is served with skin on and plated with an eggplant caponada (sweet and sour Sicilian version of ratatouille) and herbed fregola (small round pasta). Also served with a grilled half lemon you should squeeze it on the fish. Trust me it a really good idea and tastes different than a raw lemon. Our waiter Mitch did a fantastic job all night. I had a hard time deciding between the Seafood Risotto ($36) and the Saffron Spaghetti Carbonara ($21). Apparently I am not the only one who had a hard time choosing. As a result, he explained that ASTI offers half portions for half price. Problem solved. Note: The prices listed for pasta are for full portions. ASTI's carbonara is as authentic and delicious as any you will find in bistro in Rome. They use real guanciale, not bacon or even pancetta. NO cream, and mixed with pepper, egg and parmesan cheese for that salty, creamy flavor. When I return, it's a full portion for me. I equally love risotto, particularly when it is made properly. It takes time and attention. For those who cook it at home, you know what I mean. Topped with clams, mussles, shrimp and calamari. The full portion is the most expensive dish on the menu...worth every penny. Seriously, if love Italian seafood dishes you must try their version. Getting long winded, so hop on line and make reservations as soon as possible. You need to put this on your places to visit. One trip and you'll be hooked. Grazie al cuoco!

    I wish i knew this cocktail name.  It was so delicous!

My favorite thing about this place, other than this pizza, is the Willie Nelson mural. The toppings are about what you'd expect- the pepperoni is not heaped like a meatlover's pizza or something obnoxious- more thoughtfully and tastefully placed. There aren't strange flavors like sheep's cheese and apple, like you might expect to find on some Austin pizzas. Instead, it's just margherita, cheese, pepperoni for the to go. (I think...)

That's to be expected when we descended upon the restaurant with such a large group. For six people, we ordered three pizzas to share. We definitely could have shared with more people because we had some pizza left over. We got The Works, Shroomin' Goat, and Texas Chicken Ranch pizzas. The Texas Chicken Ranch was by far our favourite. It was really good, while the other two were alright. The crust was weirdly bubbly and amorphous looking. There was a lot of crust. The Works was okay. The sauce and meat weren't particularly tasty. The Shroomin' Goat was a vegetarian pizza with a lot of arugula, which is not my type of pizza, but our vegetarian friend said it was okay. Great vibes at Pinthouse overall though, and I have enjoyed their other pizzas in the past.

There is nothing more delectable than their unique and unbelievable slices of pizza. On top of that, their Caesar salad, and everything else in between is incredible as well. The only "issue" with Allday in Hyde Park is that you are always waiting in line. Their location in Hyde Park is their second location and is their most popular by far. Though the wait in line at any hour is worth it. Sometimes you just don't want to make that commitment. That's where their location in Terrytown shows up as the true superstar. Located right off of Lake Austin, the Allday Pizza is attached to Flo's Wine Bar and Bottle Shop as a walk up window. There isn't a lot of parking at Flo's, but plenty of free street parking right next to Allday on Pecos Street. What is crazy is that when we walked in at 12:15 PM on Sunday, might I add, there was no line to order. Plenty of people going to town on their pizza, but no line to order. This was incredible. In Hyde Park, a 12:15 PM arrival would mean a 1:30 PM meal. Not here! The outdoor space is shaded and well covered which was great for a rainy day like today was. You can also sit inside Flo's with your pizza and enjoy some wine alongside it. You can do no wrong here! Another reason I wanted to go to the Terrytown location was because unlike Hyde Park, they serve by the slice cuts of the Cacio E Pepe that I've been dying to try. After our order, we grabbed some plates, cups of water and napkins, and our food was ready in mere seconds. I had a slice of the Stracciatella, the Pep & Pepp, and of course, the Cacio E Pepe. The Stracciatella is creamy and delightful and the Pep & Pepp has a minor kick but really balances against the Stracciatella. The Cacio E Pepe was fantastic. No tomato sauce, but the peppery flavor (that you would expect in a cheese and pepper pizza) was outstanding. It tasted like a well done sauce on crust. My girlfriend got a Tomato Tomatoe that I tried a bite of and was impressed. The lemon pepper panko is just like the one included in the MVP Caesar Salad and it really did a lot of heavy lifting in the slice because it is simply so incredible. The salad which I got a bite of is delectable. How do the greens taste so fresh? Why is the dressing so delightful? It's still the best Caesar I've ever had. Because there was no line, we indulged a bit and got a Dirt Cup to share for dessert. It consisted of their Dark Chocolate Soft Serve, chocolate sauce, an Oreo crumble made in-house, and gummy worms. The soft serve gelato is nuts. I haven't had it at the Hyde location and this was my first impression. What a star on its own. I have not had a single bad menu item at Allday. You can't go wrong. Hyde Park's location might feel a little more sophisticated with its beautiful architecture, full bar with wines, cocktails, and beers on draft, and a little bit more expansive of a menu, but the Terrytown location feels a little more peaceful. It is in a beautiful area of Austin and the ability to arrive and be done with a meal in about 45 minutes is magical. I think Allday in Terrytown might take over the Hyde Park location as my favorite restaurant in Austin, but it's a close race like debating if Wemby or SGA deserves the MVP more. Both are ceiling raisers and the best food you can have in Austin. RIYL: The best food you can have in Austin with little to no wait.

It comes with Pepperoni, Soppressata, and Italian Sausage. I really liked the flavor of all of the meat in the marinara sauce plus the pizza crust is light and fluffy. Overall Pieous is a great place to get some good pizza. The service and pizza were good. I suggest going at an off time that isn't the typical lunch or dinner time.

    I am so glad I finally timed it right to try Pieous. Many times prior I tried but they were closed…read more From what ai was told, evidently this family owned business closes for month at a time so the owners can go back to Italy to vacation. Make note of their hours as well because they are closed in middle of day. 4-8pm I'm the afternoon does not give a big window to choose your dining time. But the restaurant checks all the boxes. Great ambience. Fun indoor and outdoor seating. Tasty food. Big outdoor space for little ones to play. Convenient location. Decent pricing. The salads are served on big trays which makes sharing easy (even when I didn't really want to share my yummy tossed salad with toasted garbanzo beans and Chunks of fresh mozzarella and a super yummy dressing. The pasta and pizza tasted really good. From an owner of a few pizza places in Houston, I was disappointed in the crispness of the dough. I don't care for pizza that can hold its shape when being held. But if I just told myself it was bread instead- I enjoyed it. It was really the pasta and salad for me. We didn't try too much because we were actually surprised it was open. Many friends mentioned the desserts were to die for. Even Guy on DDD mentioned the caramel rolls were what cinnamon rolls wish they could be. He also LOVED the pastrami sandwiches. So I'd i could do a 1-10 scale I'd give it a 9 for the extra work we had to put in to align with their limited open hours and for the soggy crust. But highest marks on the rest. They also have a room you can rent out in the back or the restaurant and good parking. Next time you want pie- Give pieous a try

    In a city filled with amazing pizza joints, Baldinucci is definitely near the top of the list…read more Located in West Lake Hills, I was pleasantly surprised by just how many pizza options they offer. They're especially known for their Roman-style pizza so I highly recommend giving it a try. As for flavors, you really can't go wrong but the standouts for me were the Potato, Chicken Parm and Lasagna slices. They also serve calzones, New York-style pizza, gelato and wine, so there's truly something for everyone. The pizza is priced by the slice, which makes it easy to mix and match like I did, though you can also order a full pie. I will say this definitely isn't cheap pizza, but you're absolutely paying for quality ingredients and incredible flavor. I ended up taking mine to go, but they do have a few tables inside and outside if you want to dine in. With plenty of parking, fast service and mind-blowing flavors what more could you ask for from a pizza spot?

    Baldinucci Pizza Romana on Bee Caves Road (next door to Flower Child) is a great pizzaria…read more Baldinucci reminds me of being in Florence, Italy with this charmingly small size and authentically Italian music playing in the background. Two things grab you immediately, the variety of pizzas available and other offerings such as gelato (yes! Gelato...so uniquely Italian). The Roman style slices were light, airy, and crisp. In addition, they also serve New York-style pizza pies as a classic pizza offering. Customers can elect to have a whole pizza, a variety of pizza slices to equal a whole pizza or pizza by the slice. Literally, even the most discerning palate can find can pizza at this location - vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free options...yes...traditional selections and creative combinations...yes! You can taste the exquisite quality of the ingredients, from the crust to the toppings. We ordered the Italian sausage and pepper pizza. For a person who does not eat a lot of pizza, this pizza was delicious. The Baldinucci vibe was uniquely European...families sitting outside enjoy pizza and all the trimmings along with friends, colleagues and family members also dining inside. There was a constant stream of customers picking up "to-go" orders as well. While in route, we got a bit lost circling the Randall parking lot twice. Once we reached staff, they were so helpful to point out a major landmark, which helped navigate us to the building. Excellent dining experience...
