If you're craving a high-end steakhouse experience in Austin, look no further than Red Ash!…read more The service was top-notch, and they delivered an easy 5-star experience. I normally don't order steak at restaurants because I genuinely believe I can make it just as good, if not better, at home. (Feel free to DM me for cooking tips!) That said, Red Ash definitely gave me a run for my money. I ordered both the New York strip and the filet, cooked a perfect rare because I want my steak still mooing on the plate. Both were succulent, juicy, tender, and downright delicious. Insert whatever adjective you want because these steaks deserve them all. Mamma mia!!! Honestly, I couldn't even tell you what sides I ordered because the steaks completely stole the show. Choosing a favorite between the New York strip and the filet is like flipping a coin. They were both that good! The wine selection was equally spectacular, and our waiter offered excellent recommendations that paired beautifully with the meal. Now, be prepared to spend a pretty penny because this is definitely a splurge. But when the food, service, and overall experience come together like this, it's worth every single cent.

Restaurant week restaurant number one, and I was definitely not disappointed. Had a reservation and…read moregot sat near the same area as the first time and the gentleman who assisted me was also there. Of course, now I cannot remember their name however they also recalled me which was a nice little ketchup and a welcome back to the restaurant. For $75 you got four courses, including an appetizer pallet cleanser, main course and then dessert. The appetizer I went with the whipped ricotta that came with focaccia bread. It was a smaller version than their normal appetizer, but still just as tasty. Second course was a summer melon salad and this just paired beautifully to be nice light and refreshing right before you ended up having your main meal. This was a full-size so I definitely had leftovers. third course I went with the. smoke pork shoulder, which came out in a decent size I would say a full-size mill. The sauce with it as well as the sweet potatoes. Very nicely there was some seasoning on there that I couldn't quite put my finger on. I wish I would've asked what was on it overall very decent dish. Last but not least was dessert, which was the brown butter cake. And y'all when I say this was amazing. I'm so glad I saved room specifically for this because everything on it was delightful. The cake was soft and room temperature. The pecans on it were nice and candied. Very tasty. Also kind of soft due to sautéing. I wasn't too much of a fan of them meringue so I didn't eat that part of it. and the cinnamon gelato scoop on top pair really nicely as well. Overall, very consistent service from entering the restaurant to being sat to having the staff assist you. They definitely have a good teamwork system where someone sees that your plates finish or they ask for someone to assist if they might have their hands full. I really enjoy that about this restaurant.

The complementary bread was somewhat lacking. Being Italian myself I found it just OK. We all had drinks and although I ordered two different speciality drinks, both were the same. I think our waitress got confused. She seemed to be having trouble with the tablet or she was new and was just figuring it out. The service was a little slow with me asking for a water refill and the waitress returning to fill only one of our group's glass. LOL. The inside was nice and it had a comfortable feel. Our total with tip was $400. It is definitely not someplace I would visit often due to the total, but we did have two apps and several drinks so that's on us I guess.

There can be a bit of a wait, but it usually goes by pretty quickly. Now the reason we all come here is the pasta. I ordered the spicy rigatoni vodka.

It really has my heart!

It's a small restaurant, but it has a cozy atmosphere that made the whole experience enjoyable. The staff was amazing, friendly, attentive, and on top of everything. I absolutely loved the Pizza "Stria," a crispy flatbread topped with EVOO, sea salt, and fresh rosemary. The bruschetta and Caprese skewers were incredible. Honestly, I could've made a meal out of just those appetizers. For my entrée, I ordered the lasagna, and let me tell you...the portion was huge! I shared it with four coworkers and still had plenty left for myself. Best of all, it was absolutely delicious. Artipasta did not disappoint. Great food, great service, and a great experience overall. I'll definitely be back!

Such a good find in Austin!…read more If you're ever craving pasta, this is the place to stop by. We went on a Thursday night and it was pretty busy, but everyone who came in was still able to get a table. It feels very authentic. No Italian-American staples like Alfredo, meatballs, or garlic bread, which was actually refreshing since I'm so used to that style. You can either sit down first and take your time with the menu, or order in line before grabbing a table. Either way, they're very chill about it. Another cool thing: they're BYOB and will even cork it for you. Saw other guests bring their own glasses too, which was a nice touch. The pasta is clearly fresh. I'd recommend the macaroni with mushrooms and sausage. I got the tagliatelle with lemon shrimp cream sauce and loved it, though now I'm curious to try one of their non-cream-based sauces next time. Also spotted another table's lasagna go by and the portion was huge. Already excited to go back next time I'm in Austin. Definitely check this spot out!

Italian cooking is ingredient dependent - Even if the cook is a combination of Escoffier, Paul Bocuse and James Beard, An American tomato is an American tomato.

That dish will fly you to the moon. Other more tomato-dependent items on the menu are pleasant enough. It is sad to see this enormously talented individual being as underutilized as he is.
