Best Restaurants for Groups in West Austin / Westlake

The Brunch at La Piscina is very good. We love going there. The food is very high quality. The staff is friendly, efficient, and attentive. Although the menu has added a number of items for brunch, we chose the Brunch Fajita which we like very much. The Brunch Fajita includes eggs, usually sunny-side up but we prefer scrambled, beef or chicken, peppers & onions, breakfast potatoes and a roasted jalepeno pepper served on an iron skillet with corn or flour tortillas. It is enough food for both of us. The venue is pretty and airy.

What a memorable night! It was worth the wait of having to make a reservation months in advance. We dined on a Friday evening and there was such a synergy to the entire restaurant. Even the Chef on expo looked so at ease with tickets flying in, he stopped and said hi to a smiling baby. Our server Kevin made us feel welcomed and as if we were the only table he was serving, just flawless. The steak cut like butter, it was perfect and highly recommend. The gnocchi reminded me of the last time I was in Italy, just delicious fluffy pillows. Our 9 year old had the Bolognese and it was bursting with flavor which was unexpected but delightful. We also had the meatballs and garlic bread, a perfect way to start the meal. Save room for dessert, you will not be disappointed. The only criticism was that our table was by the entry door and it was drafty and cold. I had to keep my jacket on during dinner, but other than that we look forward to returning in March!

Overall great dining experience including fantastic service and dishes that were both visually creative and delicious. Has a club lounge vibe, but not overpowering

Had a cozy and wonderful time at Prelude. The drinks, the vibe, the food was a 10/10. I highly recommend a date here.

Girls’ night party of 4 went out on a Monday night— the entire atmosphere was wonderful and we appreciated the hospitality!
