Some friends took us here for a birthday celebration, taking a chance because they'd never been…read morethere either. What a find! Rosé Gosé (note accents) is in an unassuming Airport Blvd location (right next to Jewboy Burgers, an Austin favorite). It is run by a couple from Belarus that came here right after Covid to open up a restaurant, with a sister in Minsk. Defying expectations, the menu is not Balkan at all. If anything, there is a strong Asian influence with poke bowls and a lot of seafood. But the menu also offers beef tartare on their raw bar menu, as well as a steak offering and grilled chicken. It's a diverse and adventurous menu, all the way from small plates to hefty mains and vegetable sides. For the dessert, try the pavlova, a meringue confection stuffed with coconut mousse and topped with lime sorbet and a grapefruit slice sidecar. Everything is superbly presented, and unquestionably fresh and healthy without veering into twigs and berries territory. The cocktail menu is also playful, with a lot of nontraditional glassware and slight spins on popular drinks; their version of a Paloma uses prosecco instead of a splash of soda. The servers are all dressed in rosé jumpsuits and very attentive. The space is amiable and elegant without being pretentious. The table spacing is a little close, so that conversations carry between guests. The table setting has some nice touches, like the little wooden bench that holds your fork and knife off the table. In European fashion, water can be asked for but it won't be served with ice. Plan on taking your time and enjoying course after course.

My hubs chose Rosé Gosé for my Mother's Day brunch location. In full transparency, choosing a…read morerestaurant is not his jam. However, today major shout out to the hubs. Rosé Gosé was a delightful Mother's Day lunch spot. It is a whole vibe, and it is uniquely French! When we walked in an artist was playing romantic music on his keyboard, which set the tone for the brunch. It is a small restaurant inside with a larger area of seating on the patio. Of course, our reservations were inside in the comforts of air conditioning. You immediately notice a wine wall hence the name Rosé Gosé. The restaurant has many windows which provide lots of natural light. The tables house miniature yellow roses and utensils sat in a small wooden block...very French. All the servers were dressed in mauve clothing that resemble scrubs from a hospital. If someone stepped out in a French beret, I would have fallen over. Our server, Sergey, immediately served us water and took our order. The restaurant was highlighted as a modern European bistro. The atmosphere was charming, elegant, and stylish making it ideal for a Mother's Day brunch. My hubby ordered a ribeye, eggs and French Fries. I ordered the avocado toast with salmon and egg whites. While I'm not a huge red meat eater, I tasted a piece of the hubs ribeye and it was nicely prepared. My avocado toast was yummy to the nth degree! Everything was perfect. The avocado was precisely cut and at the right level of softness. The salmon was chopped into tiny little squares and so enjoyable to eat. We could not be more pleased. With a name like Rosé Gosé you would expect their drinks to be superb. My hubby ordered a hibiscus tea, which was delightful. I ordered a mimosa that had high quality ingredients and was perfectly balanced...so smooth. We were also pleased with the drinks. This was the first time at Rosé Gosé, however, it definitely will not be the last.

It's definitely one of the few restaurants in Austin that feels worth dressing up for, which I really appreciate after living in more aesthetic-driven cities. If you have time, I'd recommend taking a little stroll around the estate to soak in the beauty. The interior is lovely, with hanging pothos throughout that brings so much life and greenery into the space while still complementing the overall design. The bar in particular is gorgeous, and I really enjoyed sitting there with my husband for dinner during happy hour, which runs from 5-10 p.m. on Mondays. My martini came out ice cold and exactly how I like it. The snapper crudo was incredibly fresh, with satisfyingly thick slices. The crispy chicken wings were more standard, so I'd probably skip those next time, but the fritto misto was delicious--it felt like their fancier take on tempura, and I loved it. For dessert, they had grapefruit soft serve instead of the pistachio matcha one I've had before. The grapefruit was a little bitter, but still refreshing. That said, I definitely still prefer the pistachio matcha. Overall, I'd absolutely return to Lutie's, whether for another date night or a girls' brunch. The setting, drinks, and overall atmosphere make it such a special Austin spot.

Halibut and Quail were fine, chickpeas were fine...but the tortellini? FIVE pieces of tortellini, a few tomatoes, and a couple of quarters of squash. The flavors were great and I don't regret getting it but cmon I'll be back, but I'll probably wait a bit...more of a place for gatherings and sharing plates than a date night spot in my opinion. Still fun, would recommend. Just a lot of money for the actual portion sizes, but great quality so I'm not mad.

Dinner consisted of Cesar salad, cheesy bread and lasagna. Salad was spot on with an interesting tanginess. I enjoyed it. Just don't think about it. Get it... I'm referring to the cheesy bread. I usually don't like marinara sauce on the side. This with the bread was outstanding. Let's talk about the lasagna. The marinara was a tad bland. But the components of the lasagna come together very nicely. To be honest a very good meal. Not the best in the world. But worth having. So get in your car and give this place a chance. I've often said a server makes the meal sing. That is definitely true here. Enjoy: the fat man did!
