My friend raved about The Well Westlake so I decided to try it. Monday was very cold with about a 20 degree drop in temperature. Therefore, I was primed for some hot coffee especially a latte. To The Well I went. I did not see any appealing coffees, so I went with peppermint hot chocolate, which I was told was one of the most popular drinks. The hot chocolate was quite delicious, however, in one of the smallest coffee cups I have seen. The hot chocolate was pricey for its size. The Well has a Zen feel from the greenery in the restaurant to the large windows. Overall, it is a small restaurant yet cozy. The menu appears to be varied with many options. According to their hostess, they use clean ingredients, along with local and sustainable farming. I would consider returning to try a lunch or brunch item.

We came here for breakfast and loved it here. Healthy ingredients, great service and very good food. We got the breakfast plate and the burrito and after trying both we liked the burrito more. We sat outside and loved the outdoor seating, they do have fans outside but it gets hot. For someone who wants to eat healthy eating with someone who doesn't care, he still very much enjoyed eating here. We will be coming back!

There's so many positive things to say about this location. The staff is very friendly, food clean, & vibes on point. We went for lunch and had the House Pecan Chicken Salad Sandwich and the Potato and Chorizo Hash. Both were excellent however my freind said the sandwich was a bit oily. Never a dull moment here. 10/10 Free Range Organic Egg

Old fashioned Joe
Anita C.

I ordered the salmon and the Old Fashioned Joe drink. The drink was so good and one of the best old fashioned I've ever had. It had a coffee flavor and I love everything with coffee. The salmon was perfectly cooked and they had the skin super crispy. I would definitely come back here. It's perfectly healthy and great service.

Coconut Curry Squash (Dinner menu)
Megan Y.

Third visit: September 14, 2025 The Well is quickly becoming our neighborhood "don't want to cook dinner" spot. It's healthy, fairly reasonably priced, and good food. We finally were able to bring my sister to give her a taste on the last night of her recent trip. My mom made reservations and we were seated immediately. There was ample parking on a Sunday night, compared to our previous experience on a Saturday. Could also be the hour, as we are early dinner-people. We shared the taco flight, brussels sprouts, and fingerling potatoes. I finally got to try the spinach pesto pasta (with added chicken for protein) that I look at longingly on the menu each time I've been here before. I KNEW I had already tried the coconut curry squash, because it sounded so familiar! Everything was lovely as always. The only comment is that you can get better tacos elsewhere in Austin but this is probably still the healthier choice, even though they broke apart easily. The brussels and potatoes are a hit with their crunchy and flavorful textures. Finally, the pesto pasta is a crowd pleaser as my sister got the same thing (no chicken) and the server agreed with us too.

Came here after a morning hike and it delivered - Delicious food! We sat outside in the shade and it was comfortable, despite the hot day. Our server was friendly and helpful! I would come back - but get here early as it started getting crowded by the time we left.

I came to this place to get a Chai Latte on my way to work and it was pretty good. The service was quick and everyone was super friendly. The place itself is lovely, super cozy. I need to come back and try the food which I heard it's really good

Grass-fed Wagyu Ribeye and Crispy Brussels Sprouts

The Well consistently delivers a quality dining experience. brought some friends who were first timers and they were all blown away at their meal. Clarabelle provided friendly attentive service. We enjoyed lettuce wraps and the beet salad for appetizer. Friends tried the Mezcal and rum cocktails, which were unique and refreshing. We enjoyed the squash curry, make you steak, pesto, pasta, sautéed mushroom, and sweet potato. For dessert, we tried the chocolate mousse, the apple crumble and the violet ice cream. Do not skip dessert! It was my friend's birthday, and they gifted him an espresso martini, which was a very nice touch. I look forward to my next meal at the Well.

Taco Flight
Cee Cee E.

looking to do more food reviews outside of DFW so here we are. This place has unique taste of food. This is an organic restaurant and the choices are plenty. You will find something that you like. Service with Karen was awesome and the ambiance is classy small cafe type were you will be able to hear your conversation.

The Classic Breakfast Plate
Mira D.

I had a great experience at The Well. It's a healthy café with a wide variety of options. I ordered the classic breakfast plate, which came with toast, a fresh salad with avocado, potatoes, and eggs. Everything was delicious! The salad was bright and flavorful, and I loved the lemony dressing. The potatoes were well-seasoned, and the gluten-free toast was surprisingly good--it had a unique texture but still tasted great. The scrambled eggs were cooked well, overall making a great meal. One of the best things about The Well is its commitment to gluten-free and dairy-free options, making it an excellent choice for those with dietary restrictions. They also have plenty of vegetarian and vegan dishes, which I really appreciate. Overall, I really enjoyed my meal and would definitely come back to explore more of their menu Oh also I loved that this place had parking and was cute inside!

Taco Flight (20). Yum!
Julia C.

Always delicious! Service is still great. We were able to walk in and get a table outside for a weekday lunch.

Cocktail menu
Kristin S.

Plenty of parking and a cute indoor seating area. Went for brunch and made reservations ahead of time. Cocktail: Espresso Martini was delicious! Coffee: Iced Vanilla Maca was a very interesting coffee since some of the sweetness was from the organic dates. I did like it though! Appetizer: The guacamole was very lime forward tasting which I like. Entree: The Chilaquiles was recommended as a popular dish and it did not disappoint! I loved the pecan mole as a base layer to the dish.

Outside seating
Dawn S.

Upon arrival, I noticed the outside space. There were several picnic tables on one side and some two tops on the other side. It was chilly but they had some portable heaters. There is a small bar with about six chairs. We were sat at a two top table. There was plenty of room in between the tables. They have cozy looking tables along the wall. One side is a booth and the other side has chairs. Each table is "dressed" with glasses and silverware along with a tiny candle. They bring a pitcher of water which is always nice instead of asking for more water. They have happy hour from 3-5. There are several apps that are $9 and half price glasses of wine. We got avocado toast and salmon ceviche. Both were delicious. The avocado toast looked lovely but it was tricky to eat. The avocado was sliced thin so when you bit into it they often slid off. If you are careful, it stays intact. The bread was great! The salmon ceviche was refreshing. We both wished it had come with more crackers/chips. The presentation of everything was lovely. I didn't look at the menu too much since we were just there for happy hour. Overall, I had a good experience and would go back again.

Very handsome man, if only he would smile. It was a Wednesday night so perhaps they were under staffed that night & really, you just never know the day someone's had. Way too citrusy oddly dressing on the Caesar. The shrimp were cooked well but the dressing was so disappointing & certainly not Caesar. (The food has never been exceptional - oh, how I wish it was good. I love seafood & it's a lovely location that I really, really want to fall in love with.) We are at the Omni about 4-5 times a year - it's beautiful - highly recommend the overall experience. For food however, do yourself a favor and head to Bob's for great food or Crenshaw's for more casual options (great fish & ships, salads with grilled shrimp & sandwiches). We both walked out saying, this is the last time because there are just so many other options nearby.

For our food we went with cornbread, pork belly sliders, aged wagyu burger, and fettuccine. The cornbread was phenomenal, an easy standout with a grilled onion butter that provides a pop of flavor. The pork belly sliders were also good, balancing all flavors perfectly. The fettuccine was good, not great. The chips and their texture took a lot away from what else was going on in the dish.

Best idea ever and you get introduced to different things that you typically wouldn't maybe try on own. Ended up making a reservation for a Sunday evening and was seated towards the back. Unfortunately, you cannot do the tasting menu at the bar. You have to sit at a table. I will say that's a one downside because as a solo diner, it don't mind sitting at the bar, I would prefer it actually however I wanted the tasting menu so here we are. The dining room area was very modern and very high ceilings in the back area that I was seated in had a beautiful outdoor view, especially if you're facing outward. The kitchen itself you could see as you walked by through to go to the restrooms and then also you were able to see the bar when you first entered the restaurant. Once I was seated, I was able to order the tasting menu and I did add on the wine pairing menu which it's a decent amount. I'm not gonna lie thank goodness I took a ride share. First off they have a martini order sheet. So if you're looking for a specific type of martini, you can check off the boxes and hand it in. Now the thing that shocked me was when the martini cart came running around the corner. This was really fun to see as a gentleman next to me ordered a martini and it's made table side so you really get to see the action right upfront. Now, after the martini card left, my cart came with all of these little wonderful bites to start off with. The gentleman who gave me the rundown of what was on the menu let me know that I needed to eat as he was talking. So some of these items were meant to be eaten right away not to wait for him to finish his spiel. However, that came back because he ended up telling me I was going too fast! The food was amazing, everything that I had, I didn't take a ton of the food pictures cause I really wanted to enjoy the moment, but everything I had was amazing. There was nothing on the menu that I did not like. There was a couple next to me celebrating their anniversary and they ended up having the scallops which were absolutely phenomenal. They ended up telling me or asking me if I was getting scallops, and I wasn't sure because I didn't see it on the menu Thankfully, the next dish that came out next was the scallops and y'all that was absolutely oh my gosh just melted her mouth delicious. The couple watched me....and waited for the reaction. It didn't disappoint. Now the couple was there because they had a gift card which was nice and they were French told them specifically to get the scallops and you could order 10 of them and you totally could you totally could. They're that good. The service itself was phenomenal from start to finish everyone that came and assisted dropping off food or picking up plates bringing me the next round of wines was just absolutely so kind and fun to interact with. I also really enjoyed the variety of wines that were offered because it gave me a few new ones that I hadn't tried before which is always nice. Now it definitely is a bit pricey however I found that the service and the food itself was really amazing and I would totally go back. And yes, I would definitely do the tasting menu again cause it just made it so easy to try so many things on the menu. And I think they do it for all the guests, but there was a nice little lovely delicious pastry that was given to take home with me and it was phenomenal. The next day kind of reminded me of a Kouign-amann pastry, That is definitely get again!
