While the prices are certainly on the upscale side, I truly believe the food lives up to what you're paying for. The bone marrow and Caesar salad are two of my absolute favorites, and I almost always order the blue crab pasta as my main entrée! The atmosphere can get a little noisy, but it's never taken away from my overall experience. The service is consistently good, although I do think it could be a bit more refined to match the upscale nature of the restaurant. I recently celebrated my birthday here, and the staff left me a lovely handwritten card, which was such a thoughtful touch! It's little gestures like that, along with the incredible food, that keep me coming back. Already looking forward to my next visit!

Open till 10pm. Parking is difficult since it's located downtown. I parked two blocks away on the…read morestreet. I came here because of the Michelin 2025. Made a reservation and was seated at the bar since I was dining solo. I was totally fine with that, I actually enjoyed chatting with the bartender. There were so many dishes I wanted to try, making it hard to decide. The staff was very helpful and recommended dishes based on portion sizes, which made choosing easier. I Ordered Sourdough Bread with Special Butter & Smoked Pear Honey. This was a nice way to start the meal. Bread crust was crunchy and paired well with the special butter and smoked pear honey. Pappardelle (Smoked Wagyu Short Rib, Crème Fraîche, TX Olive Oil) was really good. The beef was tender, and the pasta was flavorful. Definitely my favorite dish. Ruby Rind Cocktail ( Strawberry Top Aperol, Watermelon Honey, Pickled Watermelon), the bartender made a different drink for me, he realized the mistake and remade it for me, so I ended up with two drinks. I like the ruby Rind, it's refreshing with the watermelon flavor. 'Cacio e Pepe' (Blue Beard Durum Spaghetti, Challerhocker, Black Pepper). The person sitting next to me kindly let me try some of theirs. Glad I got to taste it before ordering because I found it quite bland. It wasn't for me. Overall, I enjoyed the bar experience, the helpful staff, and especially the pappardelle. There are many interesting dishes on the menu, so I'd love to come back and try more in my next visit to Austin

Incredibly tasty happy hour! Not a single bad bite in everything we ate and we ate a lot! I'd say…read moreexpect them to be small bites as its tapas style but the burger is a nice touch to fill you up. The basque cheesecake was decadent and so tasty. I got the kalimotxo (wine+coke) which was nice but not as tasty as their tinto de verano (which was my personal fave when I was in Spain). They make their own chips too! They were so light and fluffy and felt like they melted in my mouth....being topped by jamon was just the pièce de résistance Service was great, the spot was decorated beautifully, and I enjoyed my visit. We only expected to get a few bites but everything just sounded so yummy and they do have valet which was nice (considering how hard it is to find street parking on the east side).

When we arrived, they were still getting ready our table so we did wait a little bit. But the hostess was so nice and then our waiter was amazing. I love how they explained each dish and knew what to recommend. And when I ordered our wine, I loved that the person that brought it out was like a huge enthusiast on it and explained to us all about it, which is so cool. I was so excited to know that they had real hormone ego from Spain. It was pricey, but that's just because of the import, but it was amazing. I was so happy it felt like I was back in Spain eating this cause it's literally my favorite thing to eat. We also got the Popeyes bravos, which was delicious the sauce and it was so good. We did order other things that I didn't post here but let me tell you everything we got was delicious. Everything is for sharing so you do need to go with that mentality about it. And as for the wine we asked for it to be in that special bottle because we wanted to do the whole thing of where we poured in our mouth which was really cute lol. The place is really cute. Has good music nice date night vibes or even go with your best friend vibes.

It added to the fun, whimsical theme of the restaurant. Prices were on the higher side, so this probably won't be a frequent spot for us, but the food quality was genuinely great. The torched crispy rice trio was amazing! We got the Smoked Chicken and the Short Rib which, portions were much larger than expected, and tasted amazing. Our waiter was very attentive and friendly throughout the evening, as well. I also loved the small touch of carrying Starbase Brewing beers to keep the space theme going all the way through the drink menu.

This restaurant is located inside the Hilton Austin Downtown, and I had a breakfast voucher to eat…read morehere during my stay, so I tried several different dishes over the course of my visit. Bat City Breakfast Burrito - $19 Honestly, overpriced for a breakfast burrito. Maybe it's because it's inside the Hilton--similar to how Starbucks inside hotels often charges more than regular Starbucks locations. Brisket & Egg Taco $17 for one tiny taco feels way too expensive. The portion definitely didn't justify the price. Please see my pic in this review. All American - $22 Two eggs, applewood-smoked bacon, pork sausage, breakfast potatoes, and toast. A pretty standard American breakfast. The cherry tomatoes were actually the highlight--fresh, juicy, and sweet. Texas Benedict - $25 House-smoked brisket, spinach, English muffin, poached eggs, and breakfast potatoes. Everything was nice except the potatoes. The brisket and poached eggs were good. ATP Parfait Greek yogurt, mixed berries, house-made granola, agave nectar, and mint. A nice lighter option, with lovely fresh fruit. My favorite for a busy morning. One downside was the slow service, especially considering there weren't many customers when I visited. If you're staying at the Hilton, and given breakfast voucher, it's okay. But if you're paying out of pocket, I think the prices are on the high side. Especially the brisket & egg taco was definitely not worth $17.

Overall: 4.4/5 [dine in]…read more We came in on a weekday night and were seated right away. The place is nice and quiet, the service was good, and the food was even better than our last visit. They change their menu often so there is always something new to look forward to. Charred Edamame With Pop Rocks ($9): So fun to eat and quite addictive. The chili oil was spicy to me but not my husband so just be aware of your heat tolerance. The salt pop rocks combo is genius and so good that we wanted to take it home to season our steak. The edamame were also perfectly charred. Highly recommend! Lamb Pops ($28): Came with 3 lamb pops that were perfectly cooked and so delicious. Even better with the yuzu yogurt. 44 Farms Tartare ($24) + Quail Egg ($6): This looked like a bird's nest and had so many textures going on. A great sensory experience and it tasted really good too. I would say a little less of the crispy bits would help since I felt they were close to overpowering the rest of the dish.

Swift's Attic changed its menu and plating style in 2025 to focus on small, shareable plates, but…read morethe dishes have been somewhat hit or miss. Before the change, I would have rated this spot closer to a 4.5/5, so the new format feels like a noticeable step down. It can still be a fun place to visit with a group so everyone can try a variety of items, although some of the portions are so small that they can feel awkward to share. Considering the price of each plate, I'd say it's mainly worth visiting if Swift's Attic has been on your list and you're curious to try it for yourself. Otherwise, Austin has plenty of other dinner spots that offer a more satisfying experience and better value.

You wouldn't think a bar in the lobby of the Aloft could be so trendy and fun, but we had a blast and some great and somewhat reasonably priced drinks to boot! The decor is a lot of fun as was our bartender, Sam! He was fantastic at being honest about which drinks were actually worth getting off the cocktail menus and he didn't judge when I ordered the "No Ducks Given" just for the floating rubber ducky! We ended up here because my friends were specifically looking for dirty gin & vodka martinis, respectively. I'm a bourbon girl myself, but Sam made some mean martinis! I also had the Tom Collins w/antique barrel-aged gin that drank more like a scotch and was fantastic! The only thing I would say is the spinach feta "pretzel" here was not good and definitely not at all worth $7. It was definitely the "pop in a microwave" variety and wasn't even really a pretzel, it was more like a p'zone if anything else. So can't rec that here, but the drinks were great as was the company of our fellow "barflys" for the evening!

The beet salad was OK but had some very bad avocado segments that I had to discard. The arugula was getting a tad old too. The butcher's board was missing 2 out of 3 meats which we were warned about beforehand. But the cooks don't compensate for the missing meat. In fact the entire board was sad and dismal for the price tag. I compared it against other pictures and it was missing the selections and portions that would be normally on the board. I did ask for water to wash down the arugula but my glass came with a fresh pick lipstick stain. The check was given with no pen to write in a tip. The little details missed at this location ensure that I'll keep eating elsewhere.
