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)

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

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.

My eggs Benedict was served on a unique bread - not a traditional English muffin - that kind of fell apart as I ate it. The flavor was great though. I should have gotten regular home fries, because the hashbrown casserole was cheesy and I wanted something to soak up the hollandaise and egg. The pancakes were so light they fell right apart when we began cutting into them. The flavor was great though. I would definitely recommend Phoebes.

Their burger is easily one of the best I've had in Austin, especially paired with their thin, crispy fries. It's my go-to order almost every time. One thing I love is that they switch up the steak portion of the menu a few times a year, and it never disappoints. Right now they have the steak au poivre, which is incredible, although I'm still craving their steak frites and hoping it makes a comeback. The escargot and French onion soup are also favorites of mine. At this point, June's has become a staple in our house--usually with a couple of Diet Cokes and either the burger or whatever steak they're featuring. A few of my friends swear by the chicken sandwich (fair warning: it can get a little messy!), the half roasted chicken, and the tuna crudo, so you really can't go wrong no matter what you order. On top of the amazing food, the staff is always incredibly kind and welcoming, which keeps us coming back. I definitely recommend making a reservation since it tends to get pretty busy, especially during peak hours.

I really wanted to love this place, especially since it's considered an Austin staple, but…read moreunfortunately, my experience was pretty mixed. My biggest issue started before I even got seated. There is a QR code that you're required to use to join the waitlist/queue, but this is not clearly communicated on their website. You essentially have to arrive at the restaurant and figure it out once you're there. For a restaurant that is known for having long waits and high traffic, I feel like this information should be clearly stated online so people can plan accordingly. Once I joined the queue, I was number 43 and ended up waiting about an hour and a half before being seated. I understand that popular restaurants can have long wait times, but the lack of transparency about how the process works made the experience more frustrating than it needed to be. Once inside, the ambiance was actually quite quaint and charming. That said, considering how much traffic this restaurant gets, I was surprised by how limited the space is. I honestly think expanding the property would make a huge difference, although I understand that may not be entirely within their control. One thing I will give them major credit for is the menu. Online, the selection makes it look somewhat limited, but once you're there, they actually have 50+ food options, so there is plenty to choose from. That was definitely a pleasant surprise. Unfortunately, my entrée was disappointing. I ordered a shredded beef taco with salsa and substituted a side salad. The beef was extremely tender, but unfortunately, it was also very dry. The salad was another disappointment because the vinaigrette was honestly not good. I don't think I've ever had a vinaigrette that I actively disliked until this meal. Thankfully, my fiancé had a much better experience. He ordered an enchilada and said it was one of the top five enchiladas he's ever had, so clearly there are some standout dishes on the menu. That definitely made me curious about trying something different if I ever return. I also really enjoyed that they offer hibiscus tea. I was very happy to see it on the menu, although I personally think it would be better served on its own rather than incorporated into one of their mixed drinks. The drink itself was just okay, but the hibiscus flavor was great. Overall, I can see why this place has become an Austin staple, but I think the experience could be improved significantly by making the waitlist process much clearer online and by improving the consistency of some of the food. The menu has a lot of potential, and clearly, some dishes are excellent! Unfortunately, mine just wasn't one of them.

Service, great. Magmud, delicious…read more Tropical turkey tacos, terrible. I was expecting grilled or BBQ turkey, it was diced sandwich meat in a tortilla. Great vibe and staff, but I will not be ordering tacos here again.

They had a baked apple seasonal option while I was there and it was amazing. Traditional breakfasts are also delicious and far more manageable. Coffee was never ending and flavorful, not "diner coffee". I'll gladly come back the next time I'm in town.

It was almost like a crescendo in a symphony when you got to the center of the bear claw. My latte was flavorful in a subtle way with the sesame vanilla permeating throughout the latte. It is important to note that they make their own pastries and tacos each day. The pastries are a bit pricey costing more than my latte.
