It feels like these days, you're never truly taken care of. You walk inside a grocery store, and you're forced to check yourself out. You visit a restaurant and you order via a kiosk and get your own beverages. Pretty soon, we'll be entering the doctor's office and drawing our own blood. But Fabrik? They take care of you like it's 1990 or something. I've never had a dining experience like this. For example, at one point, I went to the bathroom and left my crumpled up napkin on the table like some sort of barbarian. When I returned, the napkin was neatly folded and my silverware had been replaced. It was so shocking that I almost wanted to test it again. How many times would they fold it? Beyond the exceptional care by the staff, the food was absolutely divine. You can tell the chef planned every course with care and a knowledge of food I could only dream of obtaining. I had never been to a restaurant where you're served multiple small dishes over the course of two hours. I was honestly worried I'd leave still feeling hungry. I was wrong. So wrong. The last time I felt this full was Thanksgiving 2004 when my aunt accidentally made too many mashed potatoes. At one point during the Fabrik dining experience, I said out loud, "Oh my god," and then quickly remembered I was in a public setting. Every course was delicious. The bread, the pasta, the white bean dip, the banana miso mousse... IT''S ALL SO GOOD! If you're wondering, "Should I really spend this much money to eat?" the answer is yes. You should. Sell a kidney if you must. It doesn't have to be yours. Just sell a kidney. read more

Dinner at Fabrik is more than just dinner, it's an experience. From the sleek interior perfect for a small group or intimate night out, to the plating and delicate fusion of flavors in every dish, every aspect of our meal seemed meticulously thought out and perfectly executed by Fabrik's wife and husband team Je and Silas Wallerstein. I was lucky enough to snag a table for three during Fabrik's earlier timeslot (5:45 p.m.) on a Friday night. I've been dreaming of visiting Fabrik since it first opened in 2023, so when I received an email about the opening of Fabrik's new Tarrytown location, I knew this was my chance. Fabrik's tasting menu costs $105 a person, with an extra optional wine pairing for $65. We opted to purchase a bottle of bubbles instead of the wine pairing, as the pairing includes approximately three glasses of wine (too much for us). Each course is a special expression of in season produce and other ingredients. Fabrik tries to use local ingredients whenever possible. Fabrik's friendly staff explain the details of each course to your table as they're serving. My favorite savory dish is "black and yellow" which features shiitake mushroom cappelletti in a corn cream reminiscent of corn chowder, served alongside corn madeleines (the first savory expression of a madeleine I've ever seen). Another favorite is the "verdant" featuring scalloped potatoes with homemade cabbage and topped with an aromatic lemongrass hollandaise tableside. After telling friends about our visit to Fabrik, multiple people asked if I was full after a fully vegan meal. A resounding yes. Each plate is on the smaller end, which is necessary because there are eight courses. The last three courses are sweet, which is a delight for those of us with a sweet tooth. My favorite sweet course is the "open sesame" with banana miso mousse and roasted banana compote, served alongside a crunchy black sesame sable. This dish is topped with an extremely realistic "leaf" made solely of banana and sugar, showing the true artistry of this restaurant. Our meal ended with a delicate yuzu macaron topped with a butterfly, which was the perfect citrusy end to an otherwise equally superb meal. Each member of my group left with bellies full and dreams of our favorite courses. After visiting this unique spot, it's easy to see why Fabrik is Michelin recommended. This was maybe my favorite meal I've ever had in Austin. Fabrik's tasting menu changes seasonally, so we tried their "Summer" menu during our August visit. I hope to return for their winter dishes. Try Fabrik for a night to remember, if you can snag a reservation. read more

Came to Fabrik for a late birthday dinner--such a thoughtful gift from my family, I was seriously impressed. From the ambiance to the service to the food, everything was absolutely impeccable. We opted for the seasonal 7-course tasting menu: 1. Local corn and onion snacks - Loved the corn soup and the sweet potato crisp. The polenta was good, but if I'm being honest, I could've used a few more of those sweet potato crisps because they were dangerously delicious. 2. Bread with blistered shishito pepper cream, garlic butter, and tarragon chermoula - All were great, but the blistered shishito pepper cream stole the show. I quite literally licked the plate clean. 3. Glazed carrots with carrot cream - Refreshing with a subtle kick of Asian-inspired flavors that really elevated the dish. 4. Cauliflower and white grape soup - Hearty, comforting, and perfect for the cold weather. I was skeptical about the grapes at first, but they worked beautifully, adding just enough sweetness to balance the saltiness. 5. Squash cappelletti - The pasta was cooked to perfection with the ideal amount of filling. I was already getting full at this point, but there was no way I was leaving this unfinished. 6. Cranberry & ginger popsicle - A fantastic palate cleanser that actually helped reset my appetite for dessert. 7. Concord grape sorbet - I neither loved nor disliked it, but it was refreshing and surprisingly nostalgic. It instantly reminded me of PB&Js with grape jelly that my mom used to pack for me as a kid. 8. Burnt butter apple cake with maple ice cream - I'm a sucker for anything apple, and this combination was next-level. The perfect way to end the tasting. Overall, I had an amazing experience. The service was outstanding, the space was intimate and ideal for a date night, and the food was thoughtful and creative. I'll definitely be back for the spring menu. You don't have to be vegan to love this spot! read more

I can't stop raving to everyone who will listen about how much I loved Fabrik. From the sensational food to the warm service and intimate atmosphere, they offer an out of this world dining experience. I was skeptical about vegan fine dining as a concept but my tune quickly changed as I went through the experience and found each course to be better than the last. The food was fresh, unique, so flavorful and very filling. Presentation of each course was stunning as well. Completely worth the $75 pre fixe price. The restaurant is very small with maybe 10 tables per seating and only two seatings per evening. Plan ahead to visit this gem as they book out months in advance. I've already booked my next reservation for April :) read more

Fabrik was the best culinary experience I think I've ever had in my life. A 7 course vegan tasting menu? Sign me up! I went here twice, one was for their winter menu, and the other for their spring menu. I was completely amazed both times. The food is so tasty! They use ingredients that are readily available for that season, and they transform them into something you would never think about. On top of that, it's incredibly filling! I was about to tap out by the 5th course both times but had to keep going for the desserts. I genuinely recommend Fabrik to anyone, it's an experience worth going for! I can't wait till I go back :) read more

Fabrik - Austin - Really just so good - Vegan Near Me - Austin, Texas

First off, I'm not vegan. Not even close. But, I'd consider it if Fabrik was making all my meals! The service is great and the small dining area is intimate and cozy. We have paid twice as much for a fixed menu and left half as satisfied. There wasn't a single course we didn't enjoy and there were several I'll be dreaming about for a while (namely the carrot chowder, the bread course, and the amuse bouche.) I enjoyed the wine pairings as well. I don't usually like Chardonnay, but I'll be trying to find that bottle! Looking forward to bringing others and trying more seasonal menus. Well done! read more

I really like Fabrik's vegan concept. They have a creative menu, and they excel on several levels. But they have room to improve in certain areas. Expect to street park in the neighborhood if you've drive. The entrance to Fabrik is on MLK. Parking is generally not really an issue if you are mobile and can walk. I would imagine wheelchair access on the street is more difficult. However, there is a ramp that leads up to the restaurant. Once you enter, you'll have a choice of seating depending on when you arrive. They have two seating areas. The first is more brightly lit and closer to the kitchen action, where you first enter. The second area is darker, stuffier, "upstairs" room illuminated by hanging lightbulbs, adorned by a black curtain, and hallway to the bathroom. Staff frequently pass through the curtain with beverages. The single bathroom down the hallway is clean and has a sliding door secured by a latch. We opted for the non-alcoholic beverage pairing to go with the seven course autumn 2024 menu. Incidentally, their NA pairing was just a NA wine pairing. It was fine, but I did wish they offered a custom beverage pairing featuring items other than fermented grape juice. I would skip the wine pairing next time. Service was polite, but it was also surprisingly sloppy for this style of restaurant. Although each dish and beverage was explained, the dish and glass placement on the table was rather ad-hoc, though it could be because of lack of table top real estate. What was a clear error was failing to replenish silverware between courses, and not noticing the missing utensils when the next course was brought out. We flagged down a staff member to ask for replacements. Further throughout the evening, we observed sloppier placement: utensils would be placed at an angle to the utensil holder. Even if they were in a rush, this was obvious carelessness and it was communicated through their rushed utensil placement. It would have been better to simply hand over utensils directly. Food: Out of the 7 courses, there were 3 fabulous standouts. Carrot chowder from the amuse bouche set. Bread topped with furikake in the bear hill course. Butternut squash agnolotti from the Johnsons farm course. The Granny Smith course had issues. Perhaps it was meant to be refreshing, but it did not taste so. It was confusing--with daikon probably bitter from the yuzu, rather than a sweet radish flavor. Trying different combinations of items in that dish together didn't really help. The kelp "roe" fell flat--it failed to emulate roe or caviar tastes and textures (it would have been more impressive if they were able to pull this off)--rather it ended up tasting like bland slightly crunchy jelly. It was unclear what they were going for in this bite. Everything else was quite enjoyable and expertly prepared in a way to that really highlighted how they could transform, extract, and accentuate flavors from their ingredients. The amuse bouches were intriguing and carrot-based, and made me realize how little I knew about carrots, especially what seems to be a deceivingly simple carrot chowder. The crisp was interesting. For the bread course, the nut/seed butter was wonderful, and the cashew paste with the tomatoes was a hit. The focaccia was lightly "buttered" with the right amount of salt, but flavor paled in comparison to the lil' furikake-topped bread on the side. Bonfire course contained a crème fraîche like spread, along with a beet-based sauce that went well with the cauliflower and oyster mushrooms. On top of something akin to a crispy cornbread. The hay ice cream had a nice texture with the puffed rice; overall it had that baked apple with vanilla ice cream vibe. The ice cream definitely had an interesting viscous consistency though. The butternut squash course packaged a lot of flavor inside little black bundles, but the addition of the three harissa oil drops in the acorn pumpkin purée made the experience more interesting. The dessert tart was yummy. Presence of the crust seemed to mute the cherry and chocolate flavors; I definitely enjoyed the bites containing less crust because I wanted to taste the cherry and cacao. The toasted meringue did not seem to be toasted, since it was entirely soft and had no shell. Verdict: definitively NOT blow your socks off levels of excitement for a return meal. But, it is definitely a try at least once, considering how they are transforming vegan cuisine: you're guaranteed to enjoy at least 42 percent of your meal. The service element can easily be improved. Their tasting menus will evolve and likely keep improving. If they can pull off an interesting and diverse beverage pairing program consistent with their tasting menu, the pairing + tasting menu would likely garner more interest. read more

This is a fantastic Vegan Omakases experience. The food is unbelievably good. The service is top notch. They have limited seating and it's reservation only. The ambiance is low light and not loud at all. The servers are engaging and friendly. The cocktail program is not to be but they do have a proper wine list. I've looked for a great vegetarian place for high end meals and this fits the bill. Do not sleep on this, go and treat yourself. The price is very good for Omakases style. read more

Tried to get reservations here forever and finally found a spot when someone cancelled on a Friday night. They were featuring the 2025 Winter menu and it did not disappoint. Every dish was delicious. My faves were the bread with spreads, the cabbage dish, the pasta and the two dessert courses. I only disliked one course and it was because simply no matter how hard I try, I hate beets. They gave me a few extra cappellacci when they saw I didn't eat my beets. Service was outstanding, everyone who came to our table was so nice and knowledgeable. I also loved how they have alcohol free wine! I would recommend this place to anyone and I would love to go back! 5 plus stars!!!! read more

Hands down my most favorite place in Austin. I really do hope that they get a Michelin star soon. Well, honestly I am a little conflicted on that because I am worried if they get a Michelin star that I will never get a reservation again at the restaurant, it is so so so good. :) I love the delicious food there and Mary who has served us now twice we like her so much. She knows so much about the food, the wine pairing and is such a gracious person that makes this restaurant feel like we are dining at a family establishment. The food is delicious and of high-quality. The chef really knows what they are doing here And honestly the seven course menu makes you really really full. They have a seasonal menu and I hope to keep going back every season to enjoy the new additions to their menu. as a vegan, I would highly recommend this place. Please definitely go check it out. Reservations are needed much much much in advance so plan accordingly read more

Fabrik is an absolute gem! As a vegetarian (not vegan) I absolutely loved almost all their dishes and did not find myself missing cream/butter that I normally find that I miss in vegan food. Each dish was full of flavor and extremely satisfying. My husband, who is stoutly a carnivore with a huge appetite, loved his meal as well and walked away full. Prices currently when we went was $85 for 7 courses, which I thought was an extremely fair price considering you could go other high end restaurants and spend that much for only an appetizer and main course. This place is great for special occasion or intimate date night and I appreciate there is a high end vegetarian dining option for those who want to have a special celebration. It is a very cozy and intimate space without being pretentious. Our waitress was great and carefully attended to us. My dad is handicapped and I appreciate there were accommodations for him. The restaurant only sits 16 people at time in dinner service. There are two separate seating areas, one upstairs and one downstairs near the kitchen. If you want a more private, moody setting, I would suggest asking to be sat in the upstairs area. If you do not mind a slightly louder ambiance and seeing the kitchen prepare the dishes, than the downstairs area would be best. I lucked out on getting reservations via Open Table two days prior to our dinner - the restaurant staff mentioned that they are booked fully until February 2025 but that if you keep checking the table about 2 days before your desired date tables reservations sometime open up. I would not recommend a reservation greater than 4 people - we had 4 people for our reservation and it took up the table. Almost all their tables are for groups of 2-4 people. Food wise our menu consisted of amuses (appetizers) that consisted of crispy potato croquette, pasta (gondolini) and braised daikon dish. My favorite was the croquette. It followed with focaccia (which was to die for and so buttery), parker house rolls, roasted carrot chowdah (which was deliciously smoky and yummy which is saying something as I hate carrots), charred mushrooms served on polenta, butternut squash agnolliti and two desserts one cacao mousse tart and ice cream served with great apple compote. All the dishes I had were deliciously yummy and after the meal I was very full. Parking wise there is free parking on Leona street or Salina street. read more

I've been wanting to try out Fabrik since they opened last year. They are usually fully booked 6 weeks in advance. Anyhow, I was finally able to snag a reservation and we had such a wonderful experience tonight. My husband and I are not vegans but we loved every single dish that came out. All of the dishes were unique and tasty. The bread course was my favorite - I don't know how they were able to make the dinner rolls so soft and fluffy..it was better than any bread I've had at any restaurant before. My other favorite was the daikon with nori caviar - it was so tasty and it resembled tuna tartare. I also enjoyed the bonfire mushroom dish. The demi-glace was divine. The desserts were also really good. Having two desserts to finish off a delicious meal is always a plus. We will definitely be back and if you haven't been here before you need to book your reservation now ;). read more

I never understood what the big deal was with "fine dining". Until I tried Fabrik. The food is obviously amazing but another great part was how the setup facilitated conversations with the other guests, it felt very communal.

The food here was amazing and incredible as everything is plant based. I have never been to an all vegan restaurant before and was excited to try this seasonal prefixed menu. I went during their Summer menu and it was absolutely delicious, I'm vegetarian myself and my boyfriend eats meat so I was scared he would not really enjoy the courses and leave hungry. However, that was most certainly not the case. We both agreed this was one of the best meals we have ever had and left beyond satiated. Everything was incredible from the food, to the wine pairings, to the server bringing out and explaining all of the courses. We went for my birthday and they brought out another dessert with a candle and took our picture at the end. Everything here was so nice and I can't wait to try their other menus. read more

Not normally a vegan but I do love seeing what fine dining places do with this constraint and what innovations they can come up with using just vegetables. My personal favorites were the wonton tart with squash, focaccia with chili hummus, carrot tartare, cacio pepe, and reisling sherbert. They all had interesting flavors and textures and were nothing like I'd try before. My least favorites were the gochujang mushrooms (really didn't like the gochujang) and apple pie tart (which seemed very popular, but I just thought the flavors weren't very unique but wonderful execution nonetheless). I would definitely come back to try more, as they swap out their tasting menu every season, and I enjoyed the majority of the dishes and thought it was a fun experience. One note I will add is that it's a very small space with about 6 tables and unfortunately, we were seated right by the door. Every time the door opened, a cold gust would blast us. The car headlights ruined the ambience and we could see a cockroach outside on the street, which they aren't responsible for, but I think some curtains or fogging of the large windows would help keep the space intimate. read more

A truly curated experience. There was just a few things that were off so that I couldn't give this place a full 5 stars. The interior felt unfinished, the food felt lacking in some dishes. I would say it's worth the price, but not well worth it; if that makes sense. So the inside is dimly lit with extremely minimalist art on the walls and ceiling to floor black curtains on the windows. It gives one of those On to the food! You can get 7 courses one of which is a couple of slices of sourdough and cream. That sounds simple and uninspired, but you'd be incorrect. It was pillowy and just the right about of chewy. I didn't need the spreads/dips it came with. My friend asked for the hydration ratio and we were told it was a secret. I totally understand. A couple of reviews say that you end up hungry after eating here. That was kind of true for me. There's plenty of food, but not much protein to maintain satiety. In addition to bread there was a crisp, gnocchi, salad, ravioli, and two kinds of dessert. It was a great experience. The server had answers to any questions and if he didn't immediately know, he would go ask. Fantastic. I'll be back. read more

This place is amazing. It's an entirely vegan restaurant and the food is so tasty and beautiful. They also do a rotational menu and when we went in April they were still doing their winter menu so I can't wait to come back for their other seasons. They do two sets of tasting menus a 7 course or a 5 course and we went with the 5 course since the two additional courses are just dessert and we didn't think it would be worth it. Our favorite was the cabbage roulade. It looked just like a seared scallop but the cabbage was seasoned to perfection and was so good. The service was very quick since the restaurant is fairly small. We will be back for their next seasonal menu! read more

Fabrik was excellent! Beyond excellent! Both service and food for exceptional! The 5 course tasting menu was strong throughout and difficult to decide which was my favorite. Though I'd have to land on the fresh pasta with miso butter sauce. Pasta was light and delicate but full of flavor! In the top 3 best pastas I've ever had. The carrot tartare had such depth of flavor, it was crazy. Even their mushroom dish was delicious and my wife actually ate a mushroom which she has never done in 10 years! The restaurant is small and intimate. So glad to have such a nice fine dining option in Austin. There is street parking which doesn't seem to be an issue but we did get there 30min early just to be safe. There isn't much to say beyond it is worth trying vegan or not.

Five stars doesn't even begin to say how good Fabrik is. I have Fabrik on my list of the five best vegan places to eat in the world. Now, to be fair, that list does not include Chinese vegetarian places. Nor does it include Japanese all tofu places, nor Indian restaurants many of which are heavily vegan. But for American/European vegan cooking upscale, Fabrik is one of the best of the best. The other places on my list are in Coral Gables, Philadelphia and two in Prague. Don't wait. Just go. ********* Footnote to the above. The culinary style of headcook Je Wheeler is very different from the style of cooking in any of the other four top notch places. I can't articulate just what the difference is. But the dishes I had at Fabrik don't come close to paralleling or replicating the food at the other legendary places. You will just have to see what the issues are for yourself. ********** Footnote to all of the above. I don't care how good your restaurant is Even if you are legendary. Why would anyone print menus in small faint font on dark paper in a barely lit restaurant so no one can see what is on the sheet? Some people used their phones like flashlights. Some people got up and walked across the room to put the menu under a wall light. Cuteness is nice, but functionality matters. Put lights on the tables or print the menus with visibility in mind. ************ Diatribe over. Fabrik Austin is the Golden Palace of the Gods of Vegan Eating in Austin. Bring a lantern. It will be worth it. read more

I was in Austin visiting for the week from San Francisco and got a chance to dine at Fabrik. It was truly a special, delicious experience, and as a near life long vegetarian and food lover (who's also very particular and picky), it was really meaningful for me to get to taste and enjoy the full journey of courses as the chef intended without modifications or skipping a course. The offerings felt fine-dining in portion, elegance, and presentation, but robust in flavor and creativity without feeling like a collection of salads or sides like I often feel in other fine dining spaces (whether they focus on vegetarian food or not). Food was filling and satisfying with a nice rhythm and progression to the overall meal. The food, wine, service, decor, and, overall, atmosphere, felt thoughtfully designed to maximize each customer's experience and unique needs in an intimate, inclusive, upscale, and friendly environment, and celebrated a genuine passion for and understanding of vegetables and seasonal cooking. It'd be a perfect spot for a special celebration or date night with a price-point that wouldn't exclude it from more frequent rotation of dinner-spots for most restaurant goers. My favorite course of the night was definitely the sourdough focaccia, but the carrot tartar was another crowd favorite from our group of diners and myself. I'm not a mushroom girly, but my table-mates really enjoyed the mushroom dish as well. Every dish was breathtakingly beautiful and flavorful with some unique, global influences in approach, techniques, and philosophy. I would be thrilled to go back as their seasonal menu changes regularly, especially if I lived in town. Full disclosure, I'm related to the owners, but I would have written this review with 5 stars regardless, and seeing other reviews, my perspective is consistent with the experiences of other diners and food critics in town. This is such a sweet little gem of a spot to pop up in Austin that I hope shows the new direction we'll continue seeing as a trend in fine dining with more sustainably-focus, health and earth consciousness, plant-love, warm and memorable hospitality, and diversity in chef perspectives included under the expanding umbrella of "fine dining" in years to come. I hope this is just the start for Fabrik, vegetable-lovers, and fine diners everywhere! Thank to the team for the incredible evening and meal for everyone in my dining party. I'll be dreaming of that bread for quite a while :) read more

When I told friends that my husband and I were going to a vegan micro restaurant people joked that he was a good sport for being willing to go. Turns out the joke was on them because he said it was one of the best meals he has had in a long time! Neither of us is vegetarian or vegan but I had read great things about Fabrik when browsing the internet for places to dine while we were in town. Though unassuming from the outside, this restaurant really is a hidden gem. We opted for the 7 course tasting menu and there wasn't a single bite that I didn't really enjoy. If it wasn't clearly marketed as a vegan restaurant, I honestly would have had no idea. The dishes were as inventive and delicious as they were beautiful. My favorite dish of the night, if I HAD to pick one, would be the carrot gnocchi. It was fluffy and creamy with just the right amount of spice from the sichuan peppercorn. Service was evenly paced through the 2 hour dining window and each dish was elaborately described as it arrived at the table. My only disappointment is that we don't live in Austin so we won't get to try the new summer menu in August. P.S. For anyone wondering, neither my husband or myself was still hungry when we left, portions were great! read more

I did not know the perfect dining experience existed. This was my second time at Fabrik with my girlfriend and they treated us both like family. The food is perfection. I don't use that word lightly but every component of every bite is so well thought out. The menu will dish out surprise after surprise. I've only been vegan for a year but their 7 course menu rivals any other meal I've had, including non plant based! I had to mention the good but the real star of Fabrik is the team. From the second we walked in, they remembered our names, our favorite table, even my girlfriend's service animal's name. We had only been there once!! Mary is the star of the show.

I cannot overstate how incredible our meal at Austin was. The place was intimate, simple, greeted by friendly staff upon arrival. The seven courses were all well-balanced, full of subtle and sometimes not so subtle flavor, and left us in awe that everything was plant-based. Moriah walked us through our accompanying wine-tasting with a ton of knowledge and was amazing throughout. I would put this place up against EMP, Per Se, Le Bernardin any day. Readers should run here before Fabrik realizes how reasonable their price is for a true fine-dining experience akin to what you would find at most 3- and all 2/1-starred restaurants. I cannot wait to return. read more

The recent expansion has allowed me to confidently say this restaurant is perfect. Intimate and still neighborhood. Every course is delicious and meticulously plated. I didn't think I could love anything more than their sourdough, and then they added the Parker rolls?!? Heaven sent! The pasta is fresh and the tasting menu is filling! I was apprehensive my first time, questioning whether I'd get full. 5 visits later and still full every time. Kudos to the great and knowledgeable staff and the undeniable chef! read more
