Restaurants near Lake Lbj

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!

I had high expectations and Aba still far exceeded them. Such unique menu items. The short rib hummus was phenomenal. Great service and ambiance.

Este just became one of my favorite restaurant in Greater Austin. Right from the start, the tangy, fresh, taste bud tantalizing duo of salsas served with the corn flat bread were fabulous. The rest of the meal, including the desserts, was truly remarkable. All the service staff contributed to bringing the food quickly to our table. They were well trained, being knowledgeable of the menu and engaging in their conversation. We met the very kind manager at the end of our meal and knew right then and there that she was the maestro for this wonderful experience.

Extremely accommodating & staff was welcoming. Atmosphere was top notch! The menu was a little limited but good. More variety would be nice.

Do the Churrasco Mixed grill for 2. Great beef, shrimp, fried lobster tail & yummy sauces. Wedge salad the best I've had. Tammy was a great wait person. Dined 4pm to catch sunset during CST. Don't miss this place. Been here several times & consistently great food, service & ambiance.
