Best Organic Food Restaurants in Downtown

We have been going to Biga for 11 years and it's almost always a perfect experience. Tonight we enjoyed a leisurely dinner for 2 right next to the windows that overlook the riverwalk. I didn't get our waiter's name but he was an older gentleman who has made a career out of waiting tables in nice restaurants and it shows. He was very hospitable and conversational and gave us great attention without going over the top. Biga is a relaxed experience and I love that it never gets too loud. This evening my wife had the Prix Fixe menu and enjoyed the tortilla soup, Australian rack of lamb and vanilla cookie cheesecake for dessert. I chose the regular menu and started with baby greens salad (apples, cranberries, apple cider vinaigrette, etc.), salmon with couscous, harissa roasted carrots and honey whipped goat cheese (or was it feta?) and microgreens. Everything was perfectly prepared and delicious. We also enjoyed the focaccia bread service with their fantastic whipped butter and sea salt. Very enjoyable evening and great food. Once thing to love about Biga is most main dishes have the option to have a reduced portion at a reduced price. It's perfect for eating a lighter meal in the evening.

I was looking for a place that would be open Christmas Day and came across Ostra. It is a nice place on the riverwalk. The service was great and food was good. There were a couple things, I don’t like when I am eating one course and they deliver the next course. I was eating the clam chowder and they brought out the entree. Also, the tamarind bbq octopus had more vegetables than octopus. I know not to order it again. Otherwise, it is a nice place to have a meal on the river walk.

The atmosphere to this gem is very Texan! It’s a throw back in time. The drinks are on point with great food choices. The service is good. Can’t wait to get back! And the speak easy downstairs is totally cool!

Lovely experience at Ambler Texas Kitchen! Got to sit outdoors and had a lovely view of the Riverwalk and see a wedding on Marriage Island. Had a delicious breakfast and great service.

Waitress was the best. Personality and professionalism was on point. Forgot her name though.
