Postino has one of my favorite happy hours in town! They have $6 glasses of wine and half off bottles EVERY day (yes, that means weekends) until 5p. It doesn't get better than that. I recently came with two friends and we ended up splitting a bottle of their sauvignon blanc which was truly perfection on a warm day. We also tried their fondue and obviously snagged a bruschetta board. We opted to the brie apple fig, warm artichoke, pepper jam goat cheese, and a prosciutto for our omnivore friend. I loved all the ones that I tried but the pepper jam & artichoke definitely stand out as my favorites. I'm obsessed with the whole concept and feel like its the perfect snack to pair with wine. I've heard that they do $25 bottles & board combos after 8p on Monday & Tuesday nights which I can't wait to try! read more

I recently moved nearby and have frequented Postino multiple times already. Wait staff is friendly and has great recommendations, both the patio team and inside. I love the fun decor: keychain wall inside, patio on South Lamar outside, both provide lots of entertainment. Everything I've tried so far is delicious- I am partial to the hummus board and the skewers! Can't go wrong with the bruschetta flights, though, and the happy hour prices rock. read more

Postino South Lamar - Mediterranean board, Skewers Snack, Hi Rise Sauvignon Blanc - Wine Bars Near Me - Austin, Texas

Our server was outstanding. Bravo Zula- you rock. The reason I'm rating this three stars is because the booth banquets are filthy. They need to be steam cleaned. There is so much food dried into that fabric is gross. Time to hire a professional steamer company and deep clean. read more

I think I'm done with this location, they're very nice inside, but their parking system is incredibly skeezy. It is supposed to automatically record when you arrive and when you leave and they have a QR code you can scan for a discount, but this is now the second time in three visits that I eat in the restaurant, go home, and then a few hours later have the parking garage text me saying that I never left and that I am being charged a huge fee. You then call and they correct it but I'm done with having to do this extra step, it isn't worth it and honestly looks like a scam. I'm wondering if the restaurant gets a cut. read more

Met a friend here for wine and to use my free bruschetta coupon. I arrived early and was told all the bottles of wine were $20-$25 for 10 more minutes during real happy hour. I had no idea! I ordered us a bottle of rose, but they were all out unfortunately. We shared a bottle of sparkling rose instead, and it was great for a hot day outside. We sat on the patio and enjoyed a bruschetta board plus one extra toast and the cauliflower appetizer. Everything was really really good and really affordable. I have only been to the Bryker Woods location before, but this one is much closer to me! They validate your parking in the garage too. Great experience. I will definitely be back for happy hour again soon! read more

I came here for their Monday/Tuesday board and bottle deal and loved it!! Such a great deal, $25 for any wine bottle and 4 bruschettas of choice. Fast and attentive service, ambiance was great! I will definitely be returning. I'm only giving 4 stars just because the bruschettas weren't my absolute favorite, but they were still great and it was overall an awesome experience! read more

Postino's happy hour menu is dangerous in the best way. It's one of those places where you swear you'll "just grab a quick drink," and suddenly you're three glasses in, sharing bruschetta boards, and planning your next visit before the check even hits the table. The deals make it incredibly easy to say yes to "one more." The bruschetta lineup is the star: super fresh toppings, great bread, and enough variety that everyone at the table finds a favorite. Pair that with a generous pour of wine or a fun cocktail from the happy hour list, and you've basically hacked the perfect after‑work or weekend hang. Postino has officially become my go‑to spot when I want a happy hour that feels a little special without wrecking my budget. read more

Ambiance is classy, elegant and typical of a wine bar. Lots of seating options: indoor, outdoor and at the bar. We were here for their famed bruschetta boards which came in less than 10 minutes of the order being placed. While we got 8 different ones and they were all unique flavor profiles that worked together, here were my favorites: mushroom & mascarpone, burrata & tomato (we asked for hummus), Brie, apple & fig. I'm glad we tried this, and I think it's a great place for small plates and a chill wine night. read more

Finally got to try out Postino's recently and was fascinated by their concept of designing your own charcuterie and bruschetta boards! We ended up sharing a bruschetta board to start, and decided to try their "Chef's Choice" as one of our 4 toppings because it was a version of Mexican street corn this time. I'm SO glad we chose it because it ended up being both our favorite topping for the night, but both the "Brie, Apple, Fig Spread" and "Sweet N Spicy Pepper Jam, GOAT Cheese" were a close second. I'd definitely come back just to try some of these toppings again alongside some new ones as well. The ambiance inside was vibrant and modern (they even have an outdoor patio area), and there's sufficient space for some bigger parties too. As a heads-up, there is plenty of free parking behind the building while the parking garage is still under construction (as of Sept. 2025), so not to worry if you end driving to this relatively newer location! read more

Went here with a friend and got lucky with their board and bottle deal! We got an assorted bruschetta board that ended up being to die for! Such a creative mix of ingredients and flavors too, definitely a very modern take on Italian classics which I appreciated. We got a bottle of viso red wine to share and it was so good we ordered a second bottle lol. For such a cheap price (I think in total everything was like $30) I was super impressed with how good and filling it was! Also the vibes in here are great and the service was also perfection. Chic and modern, but still colorful and young. Coming back for sure. read more

All of our food was absolutely delicious! I especially loved the panini and the smoked salmon pesto bruschetta. The restaurant itself had such a great vibe -- dimly lit, cozy, and intimate, perfect for a relaxed meal or date night. The only downside was the parking validation; they only cover the first hour in the garage, so just keep that in mind. Other than that, everything was amazing, and I'd definitely come back! read more

Great spot to grab and share tapas and drinks! Not a wine drinker they also have other spirits. Parking is easy in the back garages and just pay on your phone. Servers were wonderful and attentive. Loved how we weren't rushed! The bruschetta choices were all delish and plenty to share when you do the choose 4. Meatballs are flavorful. Salads are refreshing. They have nice outdoor seating as well as plenty of spaces indoor. Make reservations! read more

Postino is an awesome restaurant! The ambiance is great and the food is tasty and fresh! I 10/10 would recommend trying their flatbreads, but on this visit, I had some dietary restrictions. Our server was so kind and gracious as she helped me customized a salad to meet my needs. She even double checked to make sure everything was correct on her device. I appreciated that. And as simple as the salad was, it was DELICIOUS. A testament to their fresh produce and quality ingredients. read more

What is there not to love about Postino? It is the perfect little girls spot and honestly, it has some great Kids Meal options! When I lived in Dallas, we frequented the Addison location because of their great Kids Meal options. I was so happy to learn about the new location in Austin since we recently moved back! They have an incredible happy hour where glasses of wine are $6. My girlfriend and I came for a catch up session where we each got a glass of the sparkling rose during Happy Hour. We enjoyed it so much that we decided to get a bottle because they also have a Board and Bottle special where you can get a Bruschetta Board and a Bottle of wine for $20. For the Bruschetta Board, you get to choose 4 of the options and the standout was the mushroom and mascaprone. Additionally, the service is A+. I was greeted promptly when I arrived at the restaurant and the friendly hostess sat me right away, even though my friend was not there. The server greeted me soon after I was sat and got me my glass of rose so I can get that HH deal :) Overall, we had a 5 star experience and will definitely be returning soon! read more

I'm so surprised at the amazing happy hour deal - $25 board and bottle of wine! Service was attentive and great despite how busy it was. They refreshed our glasses and helped recommend some bottles. I wasn't a huge fan of the boards. My favorite was the bacon one and salmon one. Some of them were too sweet or the bread was soggy, so overall it was just ok. There is free parking under the building which is nice since this area can get tricky with parking. Also it's super cute inside and outside - I will definitely come back! read more

Starting with service, Parker was phenomenal. We came here for my best friend's bachelorette and she was eyeing up a vase they had displayed on the shelves. We asked if we were able to purchase it with our server Parker, he got the manager to give him approval for it and we were able to take it home. The sweetest service we have received here in AUSTIN! Food: The french dip panini and Caesar salad, prosciutto Brie panini, and the boards were all amazing! If you are vegan they will sub the dairy items with an almond hummus which tastes just as good! I did have a hard piece of something on my salmon lox bread that almost hurt my tooth and they removed the board from my bill. They even gave us 2 free donut dessert's to celebrate the bride to be. Truly spectacular. Ambiance: such a big open space inside and outside! Lots of restrooms and quiet enough music to converse with your table! Would definitely come back and thank everyone here who hosted us today! read more

Postino is so cute! The ambience is wonderful they have the perfect patio to sip rose! We arrive before 5 and took advantage of the great happy hour! $6 glasses of wine and it was very high quality! The sparkling rose was amazing! We also got a bruschetta board which had plenty of option to choose from. My favorites were the goat cheese and spicy pepper jam and the mushroom marscapone. The pepper jams had a good mix of heat and sweet and the mushroom marscapone was so good with quality seasoning! I loved this one so much highly recommend getting it to try! Our waitress and the staff were super accommodating and friendly--overall perfect for a happy hour! read more

Still love postino - it's such a great spot! I came on St. Patrick's day for some drinks and we arrived during happy hour, so got $6 glasses of wine (they also have $6 beer). I got a cocktail which was cucumber based (a lot stronger than I expected but I liked it!), and got a glass of Greek rose which was lovely. Our server was friendly and checked in often. My mom got a couple glasses of moscato which was also great, and we got sweet potato fries to offset the alcohol (really good, spiced with tahini etc, but not a very big serving - was $9 i think?). They have lots of parking in a private lot behind the place, and tons of seating inside; it was not crowded when I came but even if it had been they have a LOT of space so you prob wouldn't have much of a wait if any. Will absolutely keep coming back! read more

Love it here, we are always here lol Parking - covered garage, directly behind the restaurant with an elevator to go up Wine list - pretty decent wine list; they even have a non alcoholic wine! Wish they had one more option for that. Their orange wine is a fun choice Food - skewers and bruschetta are recommended. For bruschetta, the French onion has to be one of the options. Service - always friendly and attentive Space - inside area is modern outdoor area is comfortable but faces the busy street (luckily the music drowns out some road noise) read more

Food was okay but the atmosphere was great. A table of us shared a caesar salad with the bruschetta board. The anchovies in the salad dressing were extremely fishy, per everyone at the table. Also it said garlic dressing so this felt even more wrong. I'm a huge caesar salad fan and I have never had this comment. Bruschetta was decent. Got the following 1. French onion, was cold but good flavor 2. Warm artichoke spread, decent 3. Sweet and spicy pepper jam, was my favorite. Great if you like a sweet and spicy jam 4. Burrata Bacon, this was was good as well Overall would go back for the ambiance, great for a group or a date, but wouldn't go back solely for the food. However am open to trying more. read more

If you are a wine drinker, then Postinos happy hour is a hard one to beat. $6.00 glasses of wine until 5p. I know it ends early if you work until 5p but perfect for a Saturday or Sunday friends get together! Their charcuterie boards are delicious and offer several options from cheeses to chef's board which includes some cured meats, whipped feta and charred artichoke. Yummy! Also their Bruschettas are great choices. I Ioved the Brie, apple and fig spread. And they offer gluten free option which was perfect for our group. Bonus- there is parking in the attached garage right behind it which alleviates the problem of driving around looking for a parking space. The only complaint I would add is that it is super loud, it's hard to carry on a good conversation with out a little bit of shouting. I wonder if there is some kind of insulation that could be added. read more

Parking: They have a garage and parking is free! The place was really cute with indoor and outdoor seating. Came here for brunch. It wasn't busy at all for a weekend brunch, but we still made reservations ahead of time just in case. Their espresso martini is soooo good! I had their MEATBALL SHAKSHOUKA which was very yummy, except it only had 3 meatballs. I wish it had at least 5. Their homemade tots were yummy, especially when dipping it into the shashouka for some extra flavor. read more

Absolutely love the ambiance of this restaurant. I wish the lights were a little brighter considering it was so dark at night. The service was ok. It took a long time for the server to make his way over to us and I found myself trying to signal him several times. Another irritating thing was the available wine list wasn't updated so every time I looked over the menu to try to find a bottle to purchase, the server told me it wasn't available (this happened with like 10+ bottles I was inquiring about). Going to give them another shot because I had to join the wine club so I will of course be returning to pick up my wine lol. I would give 5 stars alone for the wine club as it's such a great deal and features 4 different wines, along with a bunch of other specials upon signing up. I would def recommend the wine club to anyone interested. read more

I can honestly say I've loved everything I've tried so far at Postino. We visited on New Year's Eve because they have a special on Mondays and Tuesdays that after 8 PM, a board of bruschetta and a bottle of wine is only $25! My absolute favorite item on the menu is the mushroom fondue. It's rich and creamy and I love it. Their bruschetta boards are legit. They have a variety of options to choose from. You get four pieces on each board. They cut each piece into four slices to make it easy to share. My favorites are the Brie apple fig, the prosciutto, and the tomato bacon arugula. We also ordered Nick's charcuterie board and everything on it was delicious. We especially loved the pretzel and the pimento cheese spread. Both bottles of red wine we tried were solid choices. Service has been great. We'll definitely be back. read more

I had been to Postinos south once before for a happy hour with some coworkers and recently returned to meet up with some friends so it was time to review! The restaurant is cute with both indoor seating and a nice patio area with umbrellas if it isn't mid-July temperatures. Our server was friendly and attentive and kept my water full which is always a big plus in my book. Most important as always- the food! I ordered a bruschetta board: -Brie, Apple & Fig- delicious! It doesn't look like much but the combo of flavors was top knotch, loved the rich cheese and the crispness of the apple, and the amount of toppings was perfect with the amount of bread. 2nd favorite. -Burrata, Bacon, Arugula, and Tomato- this one looks great, I love the tomatoes piled on top, and it was juicy and tasty with a nice punch of flavor from the bacon. This was my 3rd favorite but I have nothing bad to say about it, I just liked the other 2 even more! This is a solid choice. -Ricotta, Dates & Pistachio- least favorite and I actually didn't love it, wouldn't order this one again. The toppings tasted good, but the ratio of toppings to bread was way off. Each bite tasted 90% of bread with a little smear of cheese and some pistachio. I think it really needs more cheese. -Mushroom and Mascarpone- The BEST. It's probably mostly because I love mushrooms, but there was a mountain of mushrooms! The toppings were piled on there and they were perfectly sauteed and juicy and went so well with the mascarpone! We fought over this one lol. I also ordered a cocktail, the Tre Cucumber- it was delicious but a bit dangerous! It comes in a relatively small glass, and it went down fast and was strong. Maybe I would do better with the same drink over more ice in a taller cup lol, but I had to specifically not order a 2nd because it was too easy to drink. They do have a parking garage and validate for 1 free hour- it's easiest if you download the parking app then you can just scan the QR code at the table (ask your server if you don't see it) and it gives you the free hour. read more

Postino South Lamar - P.R.E.A.M. Bowl - Wine Bars Near Me - Austin, Texas

Visited Postino a couple of months ago with Yelp and have been thinking about when I could return ever since. I finally made it happen this week, and am happy to report it was just as great as my first visit! I came with my friend and we split a bruschetta board (of course) with the French onion, prosciutto, warm artichoke spread, and burrata bacon and arugula bruschettas. To drink, I tried the Tré Cucumber cocktail and my friend ordered the espresso martini. The bruschettas were warm and tasty, with crunchy bread and delicious toppings. They could have used slightly more toppings on the two edge pieces of each bruschetta, but they were still good. My cucumber cocktail was very refreshing, and the espresso martini was perfect before a night out. We sat on the patio which was loud as expected (it fronts S. Lamar) but we still enjoyed the lively atmosphere and people (car?) watching. I think Postino is a great spot to meet up with friends for their great happy hour, or for snacks before going out to bars. The location is prime for South Austin, and the free parking is a real perk (not sure if it will remain free or if this is only while the building is under construction). Overall, I'd recommend Postino. My new favorite happy hour spot! read more

First, before you even head to Postino, make sure to sign up for their newsletter! By doing so, you'll get a FREE Bruschetta Board to redeem when you come in. If that doesn't persuade you, here are a few more reasons to visit: Happy Hour is EVERY day--from opening until 5 PM, where you can enjoy a glass of wine or a PITCHER of beer for $6 each. If you miss happy hour, that's not a problem. After 8 PM on Mondays and Tuesdays, you can grab a bruschetta board and a bottle of wine for just $25. Clearly, the Bruschetta Board is the star of the show and the perfect starter for your group. I've been here a few times, and my personal favorites are: 1) French Onion 2) Prosciutto di Parma, Fig & Mascarpone and 3) Brie, Apple & Fig. I had no idea I was such a fan of fig--but now I can't get enough! It balances the salty richness of the bread with just the right touch of sweetness. Parking was a breeze, as Postino has its own private lot--though that might change once the building expands. read more

Came here around 7 on a Friday night and it was JUMPING. We were quoted a 45 minute wait for an inside table and ended up waiting just over an hour. Note: tables on the patio and seats at the bar were turning over much faster and the hostesses offer those as they come up. I also like I can track my place online. They do have a little cute seating area to wait with waiter so we just sipped a cocktail while waiting. I went because of a Yelp elite perk, so unfortunately I can't rate the items I got for free but we did order and pay for a round of wine (Tempranillo and a Zinfandel) as well as the mushroom fondue starter and Nick's board- which is like a German type board with sausages and mustard and pimento cheese. RUN don't walk for that mushroom fondue- it was so rich a thick and melty and seasoned perfectly. My only critique is that they give you a nice hearty cup of it and just 4 measly little pieces of bread. Thank gosh for the lard having pretzel bread on it to use because the fondue to bread ratio was not right. I did enjoy our board but you get 4 teeny tiny, like smaller than a mini hot dog sausage pieces and only three of the other sausage. Plenty of the pimento cheese which I felt was really good but I would expect a bit more meat for the price point. I love the corn nuts but they just scatter them across the board to take up space and they kept falling off and again- take up space that should have meat! I did loooove the peppers on there. I would order again because it's unique. Service was quick and friendly- would absolutely come back here again esp for their board and bottle nights! read more

"Drinking wine at lunch is not a crime!" I love their slogan and I definitely partook in "wine-thirty." I am a HUGE fan of Postino and have been to all six locations in Houston. I am so happy that Postino finally opened in Austin! No matter which location I visit, I always have a wonderful experience. Parking: The parking garage is currently under construction, however it is free to park (for now at least). There's plenty of signs in the garage to guide you to the entrance of the restaurant. I love that every location has a unique themed art wall. Postino SoLa has a wall full of keychains! There are so many and the wall is huge! I actually had fun looking at some of the different keychains. The decor overall was just really cool and on brand with Postino. Nathan was our main server, however all of the staff shares tables. Nathan was so sweet and helpful with suggestions. He also asked if we had any food allergies or dietary restrictions which we appreciated. The menu is basically the same across each location, though I think there may be some slight variation with the wine offerings. I've had many of the menu items and I've enjoyed just about everything I've tried. I went with one of my faves: the Tuscan Tuna on Ciabatta. My mom had the Caprese Panini on Ciabata. We both opted for the side salad over chips. I tasted a bite of the Caprese and it was delicious. In addition to the Tuscan Tuna, one of my other faves is the Smoked Salmon. So delicious! Wine: Take advantage of the free samples! There were some wines on the menu that I've had before (Perfekt Riesling, Ebbio Sparkling Rosé, Altura Rosé). I sampled the Famille Perrin White Blend and the Stolpman Love You Bunches Orange Wine. Orange wine is hit or miss for me. I didn't really care for this one, but I liked that they had an orange wine on their menu. I ended up ordering the White Blend as well as the Leitz Einz Zwei Zero Sparkling Rosé. The zero proof rosé was actually very good! My mom took my suggestion and went with the Ebbio which she enjoyed. If you aren't a wine drinker they do have a full bar as well as NA options including delicious lemonades and teas. The Cucumber Honey Lemonade is so tasty and refreshing! Nathan informed us that they will start serving brunch in mid December. If you visit during weekend brunch, be sure to try a Bellini as that is the only time they're offered. Other helpful tips: -Bottles to go are $20 which is a steal! You can usually get your bottle chilled or room temp. Nathan informed me that the bottle of White Blend that I ordered was room temp which was perfectly fine because I wasn't planning to drink it immediately. -Mondays and Tuesdays after 8 pm are $25 board and bottle ($35 for premium bottles of wine). I love this special and you can also order this to go! The smoked salmon bruschetta is my absolute favorite! -We went at lunch time and they had HH prices for the wine and beer which was a nice surprise. They offer $6 glasses of wine and pitchers of beer until 5 pm daily! -If you order a bottle of wine while dining in and aren't able to finish it, they will recork it for you. -They're open late! 11pm during the week, 12a on Fridays and Saturdays. My mom and I had a lovely time and we are already planning another visit soon. Thank you Postino SoLa for a wonderful lunch! I can't wait to come back! read more

The vibe here strikes a perfect balance between modern and cozy, with a lively energy that's ideal for catching up with friends or enjoying a casual date night. The standout menu item is definitely their bruschetta boards, offering a variety of creative and flavorful options. My favorites were the Chef's Choice--almond hummus with tomatoes--and the mushroom mascarpone. Both were absolutely delicious! For drinks, we ordered a $6 beer pitcher and a glass of red wine. I'm still amazed at the $6 beer pitcher--that's roughly three glasses of beer! I'd definitely come back here for happy hour without hesitation. read more

I had been to Postino in Denver before, so when I heard they were expanding to Austin, I knew the city was in for a treat. I first visited during their friends & family event, and I loved the experience so much that I've already been back twice! If you're looking for the best bang for your buck, I recommend the bruschetta board paired with your favorite bottle of wine. With 12 bruschetta options to choose from, you can't go wrong but my personal favorites were the prosciutto and French onion. If you're craving something more substantial, the West Coaster panini is an excellent choice. It's hearty and comes with your choice of soup or salad. As a wine bar, Postino truly shines with its extensive, seasonally rotating selection of wines from around the world. I tried the Stagedive Pinot Noir from California, which was light yet had enough body to make it memorable. A fun tip: all glasses of wine are just $6 every day until 5 PM! For those not in the mood for wine, they also offer a selection of beer and cocktails. The ambiance at Postino is warm and inviting, with a cozy color scheme and unique design elements, like their eye-catching keychain wall. There's also a lovely patio with heaters, perfect for Austin's chillier nights. The service was fantastic and really rounded out the experience. I'm already looking forward to becoming a regular and can't wait to see what future expansions they have in store! read more

Postino, Austin, claps, claps, claps. I'll admit, I had low expectations due to the nature of Postino being a chain. Regardless, I was excited to try the new location here on South Lamar. Staff was welcoming from the moment we walked in, confirming that parking is free until January 1. Hopeful that parking will be validated after that date... Cool decor, one side of the restaurant offering a more laid back environment and the other side offering more of a cozy environment (appropriate for both hang out and date nights). Check out the hundred of keychains, hanging as wall paper! Very 90s nostalgia. Bartenders Timothy and Andrew were awesome. Both very knowledgeable about the menus, wine and food, and providing exceptional recommendations. Without asking, we were offered to try a sample before making our final wine choice. We, honestly, look forward to returning to the bar seats! The Bruschetta Boards are quite dense (in a good way), meeting the value of the price. It's clear that the restaurant values customer input, as some of the choices were inspired by customer feedback and preferences. Such as the French Onion Bruschetta (my personal favorite). Favorites: - French Onion - Fresh Mozzarella, Tomato, Basil - Prosciutto di Parma, Marscopone - Burrata, Bacon, Arugula, Tomato Oh, and don't sleep on the Skewers (served with one steak and one chicken, on top of a bed of house-made Tzatziki). We will be back to try to the meatballs and other glasses of wine soon. Pro Tip: Happy Hour until 5 PM, $20 bottle of wines after 8 PM and an end of the season Vintage sale. Postino makes it a priority to give their guests a good wine experience at an affordable price. If you're wanting wine, they may even have Trader Joe's and HEB beat for the value. Cheers, Postino! read more
