Best Contemporary French American Restaurants in Midtown

We enjoyed a wonderful dinner with wine in one of Austin's truly fine dining establishments. The Wagyu filet was outstanding and perfectly done. I had the venison entree and it was excellent. We finished the evening with a delightful chocolate soufflé and took advantage of the half off on bottles of wine for Sunday night dining. Highly recommend for special occasions. You get what you pay for be prepared to pay for a grand night. Side note: I thought the restaurant staff handled a loud and profane diner who had over imbibed and was disturbing the dinning rooms ambiance. Very professional staff.

This was my first time visiting Nido. A friend came into town for a girls’ weekend, and Nido was the perfect place to end our day with dessert and drinks. Nick was our waiter, and he was great! The views of the river and city are stunning, and the atmosphere is a dream for GNO, date night, or just a nice outing. Will definitely be back to try more of the menu!

Wonderful evening, as always, at Wink. Service was excellent, and server know his stuff - about both the food & the wine pairings. The 5-course is always a 10/10, and there was no exception tonight. We sat in the newly added dining room, which seemed quieter and more intimate than the main dining room. Great experience start to finish.

We truly enjoyed our Valentines Prix Fixe with wine paring immensely! Over the top! The wines were special, pulled from the "rarer" parts of the cellar. All 3 courses were creative and excellent. Our waiter, Rhett, was superlative. The experience could not have been better.
