About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Lively
  • Hot spot
Nestled between East Austin neighborhoods, Este celebrates fresh seafood, Mexican cuisine, and charcoal cooking. From the team behind the East 6th favorite, Suerte, Chef Fermin and restaurateur Sam Hellman-Mass are taking their love for masa coastal.

In a location with a rich history, Este’s bright dining spaces, artisan decor and spacious outdoor deck bring the energy of seaside towns to East Austin. An extensive wine list and vibrant coastal-inspired cocktails are the perfect pairing for aguachiles, ceviches, oysters y otros mariscos!

Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: From 2024 James Beard semifinalist and acclaimed Suerte chef Fermín Núñez, this chill seafood spot is all about mariscos—think shrimp aguachiles, tuna tiradito, and oysters splashed with salsa negra. The light and airy space features white rafters and hanging plants, and happy hour spills out onto a big back deck. All of it landed Este on Bon Appétit and Esquire’s best new restaurant lists in 2023.

    We came out to celebrate my birthday. We ended up waiting 20 minutes for our table, and they comped our drinks which was nice. Our waiter, Miles, was very professional, nice, and delivered wonderful service! He was very knowledgable about every dish, gave AMAZING recommendations, and made the night extra special. The food was delicious! It has been awhile since we enjoyed both the food and service at a restaurant in Austin lately. Este knocked it out of the park and made us feel so welcome. We definitely will be coming back soon! Thank you Miles and the Este team for your great service and food!

    Every bite was amazing! The tuna triradito and the wagyu burger were some of my favorite bites of the night.

    Este was the first place we went for dinner on moving to Austin last May and, although we have been a few times in this past year, it felt right to go back for our one year moving-to-Austin anniversary. We booked for lunch as we had not tried their lunch menu before and, although there were some lovely items on the menu, we were thrilled to see the PESCADO ZARANDEADO as we remembered this from our first time there. We ordered the half fish between the two of us and it was plenty. Our server, Jonathan, was friendly and attentive. They even gave us two complimentary half glasses of Prosecco to help us celebrate. The margs here are some of the best and also on happy hour! Another fantastic experience, thank you Este.
