- HheatherGoldAustin •17 reviews5.0Dined on Oct 30, 2026Been dying to check out Hestia & finally got a reservation far enough in advance to make it happen for our wedding anniversary. It did not disappoint. While there was a bit of a snafu with the Valet, the rest of the eve was a delcious delight. We loved the martini w/cavier & olives. The oysters, corn bites & peppers were perfect starters. But the Halibut & Dry Aged steak were the stars of the show. Incredible. Food is flawless and the service stellar. Wonderful dining experience!More infoHestia$$$$• Contemporary American• Downtown•4.7
- RRandallAustin •5 reviews5.0Dined on Oct 29, 2026Always amazed how they continue to put delightful things in front of us! We always ask the server to make recommendations, and normally follow most of them. And those always turn out to be the fun surprises. We loved old favorites - the Crudo, and the Johnny cakes, & we can’t pass up bread service - it’s a treat. The Nilgai Tartare was delicious and nutty, papardelle with short rib was so flavorful and rich. Desserts we loved - Sherbet! Not your average kind. And chocolate chips! Full of surprises. Five stars once again!More infoEmmer & Rye$$$$• Contemporary American• Downtown•4.7
- RRayGoldAustin •100 reviews4.0Dined on Oct 13, 2026Not a 5-Star due to limited menu and unusual spicing mixes in traditional favorites. The food quality is always excellent (this was our third visit), service was very good with Chloe, and the vibe is a neat "vineyard cafe" feeling.More infoDos Olivos Market- Buda$$$$• Contemporary American• Buda•4.6
